  • Replace asset icon for person with teardrop shape.
  • Improved predictability of report dot selection behaviour. Now directed entirely by mouse hover rather than click.
  • Changed layout for full page tables (assets, devices, sharing) so that they use available screen width.
  • Remove maximum height from full page tables so that only the page scrolling is used.
  • Add sticky footer for pagination on full page tables.
  • Changed default text colours to increase contrast and legibility — especially in light mode.

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed bug which caused CSV downloads for Trip Reports to have missing line-breaks and therefore broken CSV format.
  • Prevent crashes by detecting and handling reports with invalid coordinates.

Mar 27, 2023 — TP Cloud 2.0.39


FEATURES

  • Assets in the omnibox can now be sorted within their groupings by most recent activity or alphabetically by name. Sorting by name helps to prevent the order of listed assets from changing as activity changes.

Map leg filtering

  • When legs are selected in the activity box, they are now displayed alone on the map. This allows users to see the selected leg clearly without other trails appearing.
  • Each split map may display a separate selected leg.

IMPROVEMENTS

  • The state of shown/hidden groups of assets in the omnibox is now persisted to browser local storage. This means the setting will remain across reloads on the same device/browser.
  • The state of split maps is now persisted to browser local storage. This means the maps will remain across reloads on the same device/browser.
  • Only display cellular and/or satellite tracking rates for devices which support cellular and/or satellite.
  • Display firmware version for Rock7 devices in the context box.
  • Display both fix and burst tracking rates for Rock7 devices.

  • Various performance improvements
  • When in live mode, reports are shown back to the beginning of the current day, rather than the last 24 hours.
  • If an asset wasn’t active for a given day in historic mode, it says ‘not active’ rather than giving the time that it was last active before that day.

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed an issue causing the day selected in historic mode to be defined in terms of UTC, rather than the user’s timezone sometimes. This has been fixed so the day is now always defined in the user’s timezone.
  • Live reports now more consistently come through, and don’t miss cases where many reports come through at once, or when reports have high latencies.

TP Cloud 2.0.3: Bug fixes


IMPROVEMENTS

  • Improved map performance by not re-drawing the reports list when it's not visible.
  • Fix a bug where some assets were being shown in cluster lists as well as separately on the map.

  • Fix cluster numbers higher than 99 overlapping out of the background circle.
  • Fix a bug where switching between map splits would forget the latest asset you had selected.
  • Fix a bug where selected trail option map setting would get stuck on option 3.
  • Fix incorrect asset icon showing in cluster lists on the map.
  • Fix asset icon sometimes not lining up with the end of the asset's trail.
  • Fix reports cache not updating when new reports are loaded by reports table / context box (note: current leg and total distance/time in the asset context box are still not updating with live data).
  • Turn off follow asset when trying to select a different asset.
  • Fix icon for selected asset not being at full opacity on the map.
  • Ensure latest report data is in sync between asset list, reports table, asset position and trail on map.
  • Add New Relic monitoring so we can see when TPC users are getting crashes / errors.

TP Cloud 2.0.2: Bug fixes


IMPROVEMENTS

  • New message alerts. There's now a visual and audible alert, which plays even when TPC tab isn't selected, when a new text message arrives for any device in your selected org. This works no matter what page in TPC you're currently on, not just the messaging page (the conversation is also marked 'unread' in the messaging page).

BUG FIXES

  • Follow asset fixes. More fixes to follow asset - no matter how you select an asset (including /search?asset=assetId URL, clicking in asset list or click asset on map) the follow button always works now.
  • Measurement tool. If you click on the map with the measurement tool selected it'll show a second set of measurements with ETA/distance etc to reach that point. Unfortunately the UI for the measurement tool is still broken so you can't see the marker or the line between the market and the asset... but progress! ****The measurement panel also no longer overlaps the position details panel on the map (for people who like to measure and look at positions at once).
  • Split Map improvements. When clicking between map splits in split map mode the map no longer jumps around, and switching performance is better (but still not great on big orgs).
  • Trail Option improvements. In map settings the Trail Option icons and tooltips now match the behavior they represent. The trail options are now also a more contrasty color combo and I fixed nasty fringing on inside of trail option borders.
  • Better legs. TPC now uses time of latest report to work out elapsed time of in-progress legs (instead of 'now' which is midnight when in historic mode, making for incorrect durations of incomplete legs in historical mode)




FEATURES

  • Introducing Velocity Leaders, an existing feature from TPP3, now accessible on Cloud by toggling from Map Tools when an asset is selected.
  • Units Settings for Volume - Allows users to choose between Litres or Gallons for drop/fill/pump volume display. (Note: Currently, these units are only displayed in the Aerial Firefighting Report, which is behind the Aerial Firefighting Report feature toggle.)

IMPROVEMENTS

  • Added an "All assets" option in all relevant dropdown selection fields for easier and more comprehensive asset selection.
