Callboard

- Cast no longer gets a pay wall for simply opening a tab - Help text now tells you what a field is actually for - Every create, edit and upload form has had its field hints rewritten. The thought applied to each one: does this help someone finish what they came here to do. - Placeholder text that was a bare label, "Event title", "Session title", "Description", now shows an example instead. Several fields were quietly optional with no way of knowing. - Plainer words throughout - Error messages no longer say "Failed to" at you but give a detailed message as to what failed as well as: - Video attached to a feed post was being refused on activated productions even though Activation includes it - The Files tab had a stray blue notice that matched nothing else in the app, and repeated the panel directly beneath it word for word - Filtered lists that find nothing now offer a way to clear the filter instead of leaving you to work out why the list is empty - Production Insights, callsheets, the notification list, saved posts and the cast list all pick up the same treatment - Adding a character or a scene on the Cast tab now uses the same round accent button as the rest of the app, bottom right. It was a full width bar with what looked like a text field in it - The company list has been redesigned and now reads as a table - Your production roles now have an order, and you can now set it - Anywhere Callboard puts one role against a name, it has to choose one. A post in the feed, whoever a callsheet came from, the name at the top of a rehearsal report. - It used to choose from a fixed list that only knew the roles Callboard ships with, so a role your company created custom never appeared. Someone who was both Cast and the Dance Captain always read as Cast. - Owners and admins can now drag the roles in Company, Manage, Roles into the order that suits the company. The one nearest the top is the one that shows. Renaming a role, and changing what it can do, stay with the owner. - Guardian numbers are numbers you can ring - A guardian's phone number and email now have Call and Email beside them, in the same place you edit them. They act on what is in the field, so a number you have just taken down over the phone can be rung before you have saved the record. - In a member's expanded row the guardian's details are tappable too. The email was not shown there at all before but is now visible. -You can see where you are with a keyboard - Tabbing through Callboard now marks whatever has focus with a brass outline, on every screen. It only appears when you are moving by keyboard. - The add button sits next to what it adds - The schedule's list stops at a readable width - Signing in on an iPad - Message the team updated - The profile menu is grouped - Changing a file's visibility now saves - Prop and wardrobe photos - Attendance stays available after the run Smaller things: - The note type chips on Rehearsals sat further in from the edge than everything else on that screen - A tick on a dresser row in a quick change plan stayed invisible until the box filled - Last active in the company list was reading a stale value and showing almost everyone as recently active - A video on a post that has been taken down no longer plays - A change Callboard cannot save now says so, instead of appearing to work until the next load
