Introducing the White Label Option

1. Customizing Brand Identity for Seamless integration

• Customize product names, app names, logos, and favicons
• Show or hide the header and menu in the title bar.

2. Title Bar Customization is now included in white label option

The title bar customization feature is now included in the premium white-label option. Users can toggle the title bar, including the header and menu, to display only essential features, ensuring seamless integration with existing systems.

📌 UX/UI Improvements

1. Unified Access to All Features via the Title Bar Menu

All features are now centralized in the title bar “Menu,” simplifying navigation and improving usability.

2. Tooltips Appear Faster for Better Usability

Tooltips now load more quickly when hovering over menu icons, making it easier for users to identify functions at a glance.

 3. Consistent Chart Display in Word and Presentation

A previous issue where charts displayed differently in Word and Presentation has been resolved. The UI has been updated to ensure charts appear consistently, regardless of the application used to open the document.

4. Updated “…” Functionality: From Dialog Trigger to Ellipsis

The “…” icon, previously used as a dialog box trigger, has been redefined to serve as a true ellipsis. This adjustment reflects its conventional meaning in language systems, addressing user unfamiliarity with its prior function. Thinkfree Office now uses “…” to enhance clarity and align with user expectations, improving overall intuitiveness.

5. Clear Messaging for Disabled Features During Collaboration

In Co-Work mode, editing in chart areas is limited to single-user mode to ensure system stability. Previously, users were unable to edit without an explanation. Now, the right-side task panel displays a clear message: “Editing is unavailable in collaboration mode.” This update improves user understanding of limitations and provides guidance for switching to single-user mode when needed, enhancing the overall experience.

📌Feature Updates

Presentations

1. Japanese Date and Time Formats for Headers and Footers

We’ve added support for Japanese date and time formats, including 10 Gregorian styles and 3 Japanese era formats. This update creates a more localized and user-friendly experience for Japanese users.

2. Streamlined UI for Embedded Fonts

Duplicate notifications about font retention or loss when opening documents with embedded fonts have been removed, providing a cleaner and more intuitive user experience.

3. Thumbnail View Toggle

Users can now easily show or hide the thumbnail panel, offering greater flexibility for navigation.

Document editor

1. Dialog Improvements

You can now edit and modify the display text for hyperlinks directly in the dialog box.

2. Enhanced UI for Multilingual Support

The UI has been improved to ensure long text is not truncated, even in multilingual environments. Future updates will continue to refine the experience for users across various languages and regions.

📌 Technical Updates and Enhancements

1. Unified Product Naming

The product names for Thinkfree Office have been standardized across all applications, including Word, Spreadsheet, and Presentation. While older versions may still appear in online screenshots, these names have been fully updated within the product.

2. Support for Failover Server Environments

Thinkfree now ensures seamless deployment without service interruption for environments using failover servers. This enhancement allows organizations with failover setups to maintain full functionality during deployments while ensuring stability and reliability.

3. React-Based UI Framework Implementation

Thinkfree has adopted React, a modern JavaScript library, to enhance reusability and maintainability through a component-based architecture. This update also streamlines UI event handling, enabling consistent logic for interactions such as clicks, inputs, and drag events.

4. Improved Adapter Interface with WOPI Support

Support for the WOPI (Web Application Open Platform Interface Protocol) standard has been added, simplifying integration and compatibility with other services. Additionally, the installer and container now include the NsLocal Adapter for enhanced functionality.
