Copying a tree to the clipboard
CMS Fiona’s graphical user interface now makes it possible to copy the subhierarchy that starts at the selected folder to the clipboard. For this, the new command Copy tree in the Edit menu is available. The subtree that has been copied can be pasted to a different location in the hierarchy using the Paste command.
Should copying a large subtree cause a timeout in the GUI, the process will be nevertheless continued. (ID 3637)
Real preview without menu or toolbar
In addition to the preview and the separate preview, a real preview is now available, which can be accessed via the View menu. The real preview is displayed without a menu and without a toolbar. Furthermore, the browser’s address bar reflects the true URL of a preview page. (ID 10799)
Opening the preview from within a wizard
Wizards can now provide links for opening the preview of a CMS file. For this, the supplied wizardLib.tcl
library includes the previewUrlForObj(idOrPath)
procedure.
By default, wizardLib.tcl
is loaded when the CM is started. For the purpose of handing over parameters, the wizardController
is also required. Use useWizardController
to load it.
The procedure returns the URL of the preview page for the CMS file whose ID or path is passed to the procedure via idOrPath
. (ID 9743)
Improved performance when determining user permissions
In CMS Fiona, the access permissions that have been granted to a user for a CMS file are determined via the user’s group meberships. If Fiona is connected to an AD/LDAP server, Fiona 6.9.0 no longer determines group membership by searching groups hierarchically itself. Instead, Fiona lets the server do this, which results in shorter reaction times.
This new behavior is the default. With very large AD/LDAP databases, however, it might occur that the server returns only a part of the result set. This might cause users to be given less permissions than they actually have via their group memberships. In this case, the new behavior can be deactivated which activates the previous behaviour again. To do this, set the value of the useServerSideExpansion
configuration key in the um_ads.xml
file to false
