A reindex is required to add the new properties.
Tasks Report Macro
The new Tasks Report Macro allows to select Confluence Tasks from projectdoc Documents selected by a Where constraint.
The new macro simply configures the Confluence Task Report Macro and executes it. The new macro is not a replacement. In case users want to select on spaces, pages, and labels, the original macro is still in charge. The new macro simply connects projectdoc documents to the world of Confluence Tasks.
Usability Enhancements
Autocompletion support is increased by supporting transclusion references ( PDAC-1315 - Getting issue details... STATUS ) and property names in drafts ( PDAC-1312 - Getting issue details... STATUS ).
The property name for the Display Document Property Macro is now a mandatory property ( PDAC-1314 - Getting issue details... STATUS ). Although the default would still be the name of the referenced document, by enforcing to specify a name the macro editor automatically pops up. Since the reference is often not to the name property, this update does better support the usability.
For Scroll Office the projectdoc Toolbox now autodetects the required quirk mode ( PDAC-1324 - Getting issue details... STATUS ).
Installation Instructions
Due to the following issues a reindex is required to update properties.
In case you do not use any of these features, there is no need for a reindex.
Please refer to Troubleshooting Reindexer for projectdoc Documents for details on how to reindex projectdoc documents.
