Minor bug fixes
What’s New
Annoyance Reduction
Nobody likes it when a window opens too big or layers needlessly obscure information below. We certainly don't. Under the flag of "continuous improvement" we ventured forth to fix a number of small, but annoying, issues with software performance and the user interface. All better now.
4.0.21
September 12, 2022

Interface Improvements
- “Objects” (previously Analyze) gets a new UI which makes it easier to examine objects within the asset.
- A Help button has been added to the top navigation bar.
- Switch Modes with a more intuitive dropdown in the navigation sidebar. No more hamburger menu.
- Panorama and fallzone are now combined into one view that is more easily accessible within the Mode dropdown.
- The tool layout in the Explorer Mode is updated for increased clarity. Buttons are now organized into three categories — Add Entities, Entity Analytics, & Flight Path — which can be contracted and expanded.
- Tooltips have been added to many primary tools and features. Hovering the info icon for features like “Entity Analytics” show a description of the feature. Hovering some buttons will display a description of the tool.
Resolved Issues
