Jump-start your reports with new templates

Streamline Report Creation with New Templates

In this Beta update (accessible at beta-app.gearconnect.ca), we have added a new unified Create Report dialog that makes starting new reports easier than ever! Previously, you either needed to manually configure the columns and filters on your reports, or use one of the templates that were only accessible from various locations across the app. Now, all report templates are accessible from one convenient location in the My Reports pane, helping you jump right into your documentation or data editing workflows.

The new dialog features some pre-built templates, such as cable counts, individual gear details, and our brand-new networking template. And of course the ability to generate one of our three base report types (Gear, Ports, and Connections) as a new report, without having to copy an existing one first.

Whether you're documenting a complex network setup or organizing cable runs, the Create Report dialog helps you jump-start your documentation even faster!

A New Report Network Template

As part of the new easier way to generate reports, we've added a brand-new Networking Template specifically designed for network infrastructure documentation. This specialized template makes it simple to quickly see all the IP addresses, subnets, and VLANs on your gear and ports.

This new networking template introduces a dynamic filter that stays in sync with your drawing, automatically updating which ports and gear have network properties. Unlike before, you no longer need to manually filter by IP addresses - a process that could have fallen out of sync as your gear's network properties changed.

Likewise, this new dynamic filter and auto updating was also brought over to the Cable Counts report, so you no longer need to re-generate it after you assign a brand new cable to your project!

App Icon Refresh

You may notice some refreshed app icons in this release as we've given our app icons a slight facelift! The updated design maintains the familiar GearConnect aesthetic while providing a cleaner, more uniformed icon set across the entire app.

Improvements

  • Added bulk delete functionality to remove all unused gear from projects at once, making cleanup more efficient, accessible from My Gear
  • Introduced new gear categories for Displays, Computers, and Replay Systems to better organize your equipment library
    • Please note any gear created in the Beta under these categories will not appear in the main app; we recommend if you use any of these new categories, to stay in the Beta app until these new changes are released to the main app
  • Added a confirmation message when opening projects in the Beta app to be mindful of new features when going between the main and the Beta apps
  • Disabled undo/redo functionality during Local Mode syncing to prevent conflicts and improve stability

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed Fiber and SFP connection compatibility issues preventing them from talking to each other with an adapter
  • Fixed reports from being exported if an IP address column was visible
  • Fixed the undo stack not properly capturing the first change made to stock reports
  • Fixed Gear Group movement issues in the undo stack where items would incorrectly snap back during redo operations
  • Fixed non-Pro users incorrectly being able to create reports from the file menu
  • Fixed Firefox-specific issue where opening dialogs or adding gear would cause the drawing to jump to a far away spot unexpectedly
  • Fixed an issue that resulted in the Aquilon RS6 losing it's default expansion cards
  • Fixed the app from getting stuck in a retry loop when constantly reloading the library back to back
  • Fixed typo on the pricing plan with the wrong export options listed for the Starter plan

Step through your projects with undo / redo!

Quickly Fix Mistakes with the Undo Stack!

We're excited to announce a highly anticipated feature now available on the Beta site - undo and redo support! The Undo Stack captures complete snapshots of your entire project state, including drawings, reports, cable inventories, selections, and everything in between. This means you can easily step backward and forward through your recent edits, knowing that everything will stay perfectly in sync.

Accessible at beta-app.gearconnect.ca, every action you make creates a snapshot saved efficiently using delta updates (small changes that only include the modified information), ensuring fast save and restore times while keeping everything in sync.

Make a bulk change in a report that affects dozens of gear in the drawing? No problem! Undoing while in Report mode will keep your drawing up to date as well. Accidentally change the colour of a layer, affecting several items in both the drawing and reports? A single undo step will revert everything back to its proper place.

In addition, the Undo Stack also tracks all your report changes, including visible columns, filtering, and grouping, making it a powerful feature no matter where you are in the project.

The app will group all changes made within the same time window into a single step, making navigation through your project history both intuitive and efficient. For example, creating 4 connections in quick succession will be grouped into one undo step, allowing you to easily revert all changes at once. With up to 50 undo snapshots stored locally, you'll be able to explore your project's evolution with ease.

As an added bonus, Pro users get access to the visual Undo Stack History timeline. This dialog provides an overview of your project changes with detailed action cards showing what happened and when. You can avoid undoing one step at a time by jumping to any point in your project's timeline instantly from this view as well.

The Undo Stack requires the features of Local Mode to function, so you'll be prompted to enable it when first trying to undo a change if you haven't already.

You can learn more about the Undo Stack on our docs site. We hope this new feature, in combination with the existing Version History, gives you the confidence you need to fix mistakes while editing your projects!

Select / Deselect All Ports

In addition, we've made some quality of life improvements and squashed some bugs to help streamline your workflow in this release.

You can now select and deselect all ports across all port tables in the View All Details dialog, as opposed to having to select all per table. This allows you to hide all ports much faster than before, which is especially useful for cleaning up your drawing as any ports with active connections will remain visible - a great way to quickly hide unused ports!

  • Fixed port status rings not updating correctly and getting stuck in an active or inactive state (for example, the port showing green even when nothing is connected)
  • Fixed Expansion Card Groups occasionally detaching from gear and becoming stuck in the drawing
  • Fixed port spacing and Expansion Card Groups resetting during local mode sync, causing ports to flicker back and forth

Announcing a New Beta Version of the App to Test the Latest Features

Interested in testing new features before they make it to our main release? Today, we are announcing a new Beta app just for that purpose!

Accessible at beta-app.gearconnect.ca, the new Beta app will operate alongside our standard application and serve as a platform for testing upcoming features from time to time. You may log in with your existing account, and all projects will be synchronized between the primary and Beta app, allowing an easy transition between the two platforms. Features introduced to the Beta app will be clearly identified in the changelog with a "BETA APP" badge, just like this one.

We’re excited to roll out two major updates in the Beta app today. The first is a large behind the scenes upgrade to the app's core functionally. While the upgrade should be transparent to you while using the app, it allows us to continue developing some highly requested features like undo/redo and Team plans. Stay tuned for more information on those!

The other major update, you can start using today - and covers several requests from many of you!

Create Library Items From Scratch, Archive Old Items, and More!

In the new Beta app, the Library Editor has gotten some big QoL updates based on your feedback!

You can now create library items directly, eliminating the need to duplicate an existing item as a starting point. This feature streamlines the creation process and saves time previously spent searching for similar equipment to copy from.

Additionally, it is now possible to archive not only individual library items but also entire manufacturers and brands. This is a great way to clear out extra gear you no longer need. Archiving a brand or manufacturer will include all associated items, providing a fast way to bulk archive several items at once.

And you can now change the category of a library item via a new drop-down menu in the Library Item Config pane. Doing so will generate a new item under the selected category. The original item can then be kept or archived.

We've also made several other smaller improvements to the Library Editor, such as smother regeneration animations with a new loading screen and updated action buttons.

We hope these new Library Editor features allow you to build and customize gear even faster!

Improvements

  • During project sync errors, a new "Do not ask again" checkbox allows skipping the rest of the confirmation dialogs for that session

Library Port Updates

USB Update: To simplify drawings, dedicated USB 3.0 port types (e.g., USB-A 3.0) have been removed. USB versions are now handled as Signal Types. You can select a physical port (e.g., USB-A) and then specify the signal it carries (e.g., USB 3.2) to allow greater flexibility to mix and match ports.

All existing projects will be migrated to the new USB structure when the project is next opened.
