Release Notes

Public

7.0.16.2183: Apr 30 2018

New

Windows GUI: 2D version tree is now able to filter only parents.

It means that you will only see changes that are related to the version you are loading.

You will find the new filtering option in the 'Version tree' options tab. By default, it's set to true.

This is the only option that depends on the working changeset. You will get different results depending on the changeset you are loading.

New

Overall performance of user and group reloads has been greatly improved since the reload is now a background operation, so users won't be affected by slow LDAPs or Active Directories during regular operation.

Bug

We fixed some server-side merge (in-preview) issues, detected in complex merge scenarios with reused paths.

Bug

Windows GUI and Gluon for Windows: Detected a performance downgrade in the pending changes view due to an interference of Windows Defender antivirus with the log files that Plastic GUI applications write.

This problem happens since release 7.0.16.2068. Now we have fixed the issue by updating the log configuration files for Plastic GUI, Gluon and Mergetool applications, removing the "MinimalLock" locking model. This way, Windows Defender antivirus won't be exhaustively analyzing the Plastic log files.

REMARKS: In case you already customized the plastic.log.conf, gluon.log.conf or mergetool.log.conf, a backup file will be generated with the ".installer.backup" suffix in the same folder.

Bug

Gluon for Windows: Using a Unity project, having checked out multiple regular file/meta file pairs, if you select/deselect a file, its meta file pair is updated accordingly. But, if the commit view was refreshed, the pair state was lost. So, the user saw the checkboxes state change automatically, without any user interaction. Now, it's fixed.
