9.61.38.40

Enhancements

Log Management

• Added sendApplicationLog call for programmatically uploading application logs which returns a logId on success
• Added setAppLogUsername which updates app logs with the specified username when uploaded
  

Window Groups API

• Window.joinGroup and window.mergeGroup now work across versions/security realms
• Internal resizing of groups has improved to avoid overlaps
• Gaps while resizing grouped framed windows on Windows 10 have been eliminated
  

General

• Enforce min/max limits when aspectRatio is enabled
• Legacy window grouping behaviour can be re-enabled by adding the --use-legacy-window-groups as a runtime argument

Resolved Issues

Known Issues

• Existing OpenFin deployments may experience some issues with cache migrating correctly, as a result of an OpenFin Runtime upgrade. These issues are resolved in OpenFin 9.61.38.40 and also require an OpenFin RVM 4.7. upgrade* - which will be available in Beta on Jan 14.
• .NET Adapter implementations, using "browser like" navigation, may encounter blank screens
• Animating grouped windows is not supported

9.61.37.46

New Features

Expanded Chrome Features
OpenFin has incorporated some Chrome features that you and your end-users have become accustomed to. These features are available by default and require no configuration. Features include:

• Spell Check - With Suggestions! - Applications leverage the OS’s language dictionaries to validate misspelled words and offer suggestions via a right-click menu.
• Print Preview - On Print, applications display the Chromium in-page print preview dialog - the same dialog as in the browser.
• Inline PDF - Display your PDF documents within your application windows.
• Debug Service Workers - Within the Chromium dev tools, you can now debug service workers.
• Chrome Pages - Experimental Usage - The Chromium project includes many additional features, settings, and experiments as dedicated web pages. Some of these pages are now fully accessible to app developers in OpenFin, while others are not fully supported.
• Aligned Render process forking rules closely with Chromium
  • Fixed issue where creating a child Window with an Object.url spins up a new Render process.
  • Fixed issue where Window.postMessage failed on cross domain child Windows/Iframes.
  • Fixed issue where creating a cross domain child Window spins up a new Render process.

Enhancements

• Added ability to take a snapshot of an area of a window based on coordinates with getSnapshot call
• OpenFin CLI Tool 2.0 includes:
  Offline Support
  Defaults to most recent Stable version
  Presents RVM UI for downloads on Windows
• Released Definitely Typed @openfin types 37.0.1

Resolved Issues

• Resolved issue where Error: not opened at WebSocket.send error could occasionally be thrown
• Resolved issue where Dev Tools were not displaying on Mac
• Resolved issue with bounds-changing event in Windows performance mode
• Resolved issue with System.getMachineId on 32-bit runtimes
• Resolved issue where closing a window did not generate a leave group-changed event
• Resolved issue where Window.mergeGroups would not generate group-changed events

Experimental

With this release we have included experimental improvements to the Window Groups API, we expect these experiments to stabilize and land in our upcoming 9.61.38.* release. The behavior of Window Groups has been improved to better support OpenFin Layouts. To enable these improvements add “--disabled-frame-groups” as a runtime argument, the list of improvements are:

• Window.joinGroup and window.mergeGroup now work across versions/security realms
• Internal resizing of groups has improved to avoid overlaps
• Gaps while resizing grouped framed windows on Windows 10 have been eliminated
  
  Known Issues:
• Animating grouped windows is not supported
• Resizing a group of two framed windows on Windows 10 past their minimum dimension causes shaking if that dimension is shared between the two
• Grouping a disabled-frame window will cause it to gain a frame when it leaves the group

Deprecations

We have deprecated the following NPM Libraries:

• openfin-launcher, All functionality has been ported over to the js-adapter launch API
• grunt-openfin, All functionality has been ported over to the js-adapter launch API
• generator-openfin, You can use our updated application template

Known Issues

• A 5px border is present on a frameless maximized window (Windows 10)
• .NET Adaptor implementations, using "browser like" navigation, may encounter blank screens

9.61.36.36

New Features

Download File API
Added a set of new events on the Window/Application/System namespaces to facilitate downloading of documents:

Window: file-download-started, file-download-progress and file-download-completed
Application and System: window-file-download-started, window-file-download-progress and window-file-download-completed

All events provide general information about the file being downloaded and a fileUuid property that is a unique file identifier that can be used to tie these events together and passed to System.launchExternalProcess to launch the file.

Enhancements

Versions Page

8.56.30.71

New Features

SpellCheck Support

The ability to validate misspelled words has been added to the OpenFin API. It can be enabled by setting ”spellCheck”: true in your Application Properties. Suggestions for misspelled words is slated for a future version of OpenFin 9.

Resolved Issues

• Resolved issues related to cookies for icons and preload scripts.

Known Issues

• Failed configuring with PAC script, falling-back to manual proxy servers
  • Log Error:
    VERBOSE1:proxy_service.cc(1244)] Failed configuring with PAC script, falling-back to manual proxy servers.
  • This is a known Chromium bug fixed in Chromium 57. The application load should not be affected by this error however the client may notice a ‘Rouge’ opefin.exe process starting/stopping every X seconds. This bug could also leak memory, the standard workaround is to add --winhttp-proxy-resolver as a runtime argument. We expect this issue to not persist with OpenFin v9+.
