April 2024

We upgraded! What's new? Learn more about new features, technical changes and solved bugs in 4App Core Engine.

Note on upgrading: If you skip a version when upgrading, check all release and patch notes in between for important information. They apply cumulative.
Note on individualization: If your 4ALLPORTAL is highly customized or if you installed individual apps, please contact your implementation partner before upgrading. We recommend checking your custom contents, especially layouts and object renderers, carefully after an upgrade.

New Features and Improvements

Hyperlink Option in HTML Text Editor

We have added the option to add and configure hyperlinks in the HTML text editor. The new "Link" control appears by default between the "Alignment" and "Lists" controls. When clicked, a pop-up window opens where users can specify a target URL, link text, tooltip and whether the link should open in a new tab. Look for general information about implementing and configuring the HTML text editor here (opens new window).
Please note: The "Link" control does not appear in the default eTicket editor.

Additional Improvements

• Keyboard Compatibility: We polished the focus frame for a better usability.

New Default maxLifetime

We reduced the default maxLifetime from former 1.800.000 ms to now 600.000 ms.
