Vault 2014 Subscription Release 1 Web Client

Loving the new Vault web client interface! Great to now see UDP's, Where Used and Uses, as well as a more intuitive interface in general. Some initial issues though:

 

1. When using Google Chrome (ver 30), there is no option to show the associated DWF file:

ChromeDWF.JPG

 

However, in IE10, it is there:

 

IE10DWF.JPG

 

Is this a setting in Chrome? I tried to follow the help file to configure Chrome, and everything seems to be OK.

 

2. Opening the DWF file in ADR:

Gives the error:

This is with a fully updated ADR2013 (Build 13.0.0.82)

 

Any suggestions?

Hello,

 

  1. Currently the ability to see the DWF in Chrome is not available.
  2. Try using the Home Button and selecting Save As then opening the file.

I'm glad you posted this as I am experiencing the same issue... no preview in Chrome but works in IE

Hi Irvin, thanks for the prompt response. The workaround does work, but is that really the expected action at this stage? What would be the correct workflow to open this up in a full-window? The View in Full Screen works, but then all the toolbars of ADR are gone.

 

Thanks!

The unfortunate part is that with new technology comes new challanges.  I will have the development team see what we can improve in this area.

Thanks Irvin, all good. As they say, we're after progress, not necessarily perfection.

Hi

 

Can the default DWF window in the new client be sized?

 

I agree that it's not very usefull when going full screen that we loose all the Design Review Tools

 

Secondly, is there any option to stop users from downloading native CAD file?

 

Thanks

I second the request.... why can we not resize the DWF Preview Window? or at least why isn't it full screen?

The problem is, you cant sign in with windows authentication in IE, so its useless untill they fix the problem.

Windows Auth does work with the new client. I believe something must not be configured on your server.

Hi,

 

how about Mozilla Firefox? While I can view the DWF files with the ADR Plug-In for Firefox installed in the old webclient it doesn't seem to work within the new webclient.

 

Can you confirm this issue like with Chrome in your first post?

 

Regards.

Hi,

 

No it doesnt, it only works with google chrome, no luck with firefox or IE, and you know chrome doesnt support 3D preview, so I'm stuck with the old webclient for now.

 

the only workaround I have found so far is this (attached) which is not an option for us, it takes time and we cant do it.

 

Thanks

Hi 3DAli,

 

Coul you elaborate on on IE not working with Window Authentication? Was it:

1. WA user cannot even login, or

2. WA user could login, but you're seeing error in the landing page?

etc?

 

Thanks for your patience...

Hi,

 

I tried it again this morning and it works fine now, honestly I didnt do anything different!

 

I can get the dwf preview now, is there anyway to make it like fullscreen on the preview box?

 

Thanks anyways,

Hi

 

One more thing I noticed this morning is, I'm using a win 7 64bit, if I run IE64bit, the preview doesnt work, it just remains black when I click on the dwf icon , but it works perfectly fine when I run IE32. just wanted to share incase others have the same issue.

 

Thanks

Just to clarify the issue I had,

 

it was not able to sign in with WA, it was showing "error" in password field , it is still the same in Firefox though. I have attached my screen captured fo your information.

 

Regards

Ali

Here is what I get after managing to successfully sign in via a vault account (guest)! this is after I upgraded to IE11 and happens when I click on preview button.
