Changelog
NEW
Proposal & Invoice Overview woke up this spring flourishing and in their lane. A new Top Bar Sub Menu lets you filter documents by their compliance date. This nicely renders the archive redundant so we removed it completely. You can also sort ascending or descending on the state, title and date columns by clicking on the table head cells. Last but not least you can now change whether the list should show you net or gross totals through the Top Bar Sub Menu. This setting is saved locally on your device and carries over to different views. Proposals Stats 'Success Rate' and 'Average Amount' (which is now both accepted and invoiced) now are calculated off the current filtered selection so you can check your stats from the past. Proposals Stat 'Potentially Upcoming' is now calculated off all draft or awaiting proposals, no matter the date. Invoices Stat 'Upcoming Income' is changed to 'due' (Awaiting + Overdue) and 'potential' (Draft, Awaiting, Overdue) of all invoices. Invoices Stat 'Payment Morale' is now calculated off the current filtered selection as well. Lastly Invoices Stat 'Yearly Goal' is calculated off all paid invoices of this year (Jan 1 - Dec 31). Phew that was a lot to read. Maybe take a quick break and get hydrated before you move on. thanks Marion, Andreas
Project Detail Timeline Entries can now be filtered by type in addition to the fuzzy text search. This is especially handy if you have a long history and you're looking for a particular image which you can't text-search (yet?). thanks Eli
Auto-start Fugoya on system startup is now available in the regular app settings under the 'User' section. Looong overdue to not miss any time tracking when rebooting. thanks Lucas
IMPROVED
Links in Proposal/Invoice Textblocks and Budgetblock-descriptions are now a reality. They use the flow body color (just as the flowing copy around it) and are underlined. Before you ask: choosing a custom link color is currently not supported. Note that while the preview shows the underlined text, only the final downloaded PDF will have a clickable link. thanks Tayte
Undo/Redo in inputs and text editors now finally works as expected as we married native behaviour with our custom undo engine. Inside any text field it will undo/redo the last text change, outside of it it will undo/redo the last action. thanks Andreas
CMD (mac) or CTRL (win) + Left/Right Arrow Keys History Navigation actually existed since release, but was never communicated since it had an edge case bug. It doesn't anymore, so now go forth and yield this power.
FIXED
once again fighting involuntary logouts one case at a time without compromising on security.
fixed being able to edit a task title, deleting its contents and leaving an empty title that is then hard to edit. It now falls back to 'untitled' if left empty. Same applies to project taskboard column titles.
fixed project detail time tracking screen having awkward layouts on smaller windows, especially in german. billed/unbilled is now a dropdown to save space and on really small screens the sidebar is hidden to avoid squishy squishy.
fixed on taskboards sometimes not being able to drag back a task into an empty inbox. Not that you should be doing that, but now at least you can.
Fixed: When attaching a time tracking entry but leaving no project selected, the duration of the entry was missing in the daily sum. thanks Lucas
fixed template images in certain conditions re-uploading themselves unnecessarily.
fixed pasting template contents and immediately undoing sometimes crashing the view. pasting text elements also now properly selects the pasted element.
fixed too many variables restricting switching template type and also fixed copy/pasting textboxes with certain variables being forbidden even though they were harmless to be pasted.
fixed dark mode onboarding tooltips contrast issues. thanks Tyler
fixed clients view graph shadow being cut off by table head. thanks Kathrin
fixed average amount accepted proposals taking too many proposals into account. Now filters strictly for proposals with state accepted or invoiced and shows message if none were found. thanks Marion
fixed cases where a dark OS theme and a light fugoya theme (and the other way around) would result in awkwardly-transparent sidebars, they now have no transparency in that case. Note that if your OS uses the same theme as Fugoya (honestly the only way it really makes sense tbh), nothing changes for you.
Improved error diagnostics around more fragile parts of the app. This should help us identify and fix issues faster.
NEW
Client View is now a thing. Create, edit and delete clients from it's own view in your main navigation. Quickly navigate to related projects, invoices and proposals. As the cherry on top, see which clients contributed how much to this year's revenue. Bonus tip: you can change the year for the graphic to compare to previous years! Note that the awkward Settings > Clients page got removed in the process and along with it the ability to hide a client, since you can now delete them if there are no related projects, invoices or proposals. Previously hidden clients will stay hidden in the Client Modal, but will show up in the Client Management View so you can delete them, which you should do since we will get rid of the (now, well, hidden) hidden field in the future. Users affected by this should get a dedicated email.
Client's Currency can now be set. When creating a client it defaults to your default currency you set in the Workspace Settings. When creating a proposal or invoice from a project, the projects's client's currency will be used as default. When creating a proposal or invoice without a project, as soon as you choose a client that doesn't have your default currency, it will set the currency for you as well. You can still always override it of course. Two clicks less is kinda our fetish.
Week View now encompasses 7 days and scrolls horizontally – no more exclusion of small-screeners. It's called WEEK view after all, amirite? As a little touch-up we introduced a glassy background for the task detail flyout and made sure you can scroll while having a task in hand by dragging it to the edges of the container. Weekends also visually ever so slightly stand out from other columns and tomorrow is actually called tomorrow. Sweet. thanks everyone?
Setting for Auto-BCC email addresses is now available so you can always be looped in when emails go out. You can add up to 5 email addresses that should be BCC'd on every outgoing email that Fugoya sends on your behalf. Note that this also applies to automated reminders if that setting is enabled, which is quite handy. This is a workspace setting and can be found in the settings under 'email'. thanks Alessia
IMPROVED
When (unvoluntarily) logged out the login window will send you an OS notification after 3 minutes that you are not logged in and therefore timetracking is not active. This is to prevent you from accidentally not tracking time for a longer period of time if you got logged out due to eg Fugoyas security checks during unreliable network conditions. There's not really a usecase of leaving the login window open for longer than 3 minutes because either you want to be logged in or you want to close Fugoya. thanks Lucas
Project Detail Sidebar Proposal/Invoice Links received the same fancy treatment as the links to invoices/proposals in the new client view. Don't try to look up how hideous they looked before in comparison. I said DON'T.
Top Bar Call-to-Actions are now buttonier (might run a signature campaign to get this in the oxford dictionary) so they're even faster to visually jump to, especially for people just getting started.
Date Pickers are slightly modernized – eg previously, due to different amount of weeks in months, there were sometimes layout shifts when switching months. This and some other quirks are improved now.
FIXED
Today View KPIs got a tiny visual update bringing it more in line with the visual quality level of the rest of the app. This is our way of saying it was shamefully-ugly before.
fixed Start-of-Week setting not respecting the prior chosen language in Onboarding and while at it modernized the look and feel of the following dropdown menus in both onboarding and settings: language, locale, default currency, country & week start day.
fixed short awkward timewindow when updating where you don't get immediate feedback that the download has started. thanks Lucas
fixed planning minimum monthly bar reddish-gradient-fill not showing up as expected.
fixed too generic error message when entering a wrong confirmation code in the login flow. Now tells you, well, that you entered a wrong code. d'uh. thanks Lucas
further improved unvoluntary logout situation, one edge-case at a time. thanks Lucas
fixed one more culprit of the nasty JWTExpired errors that (reminder) still are only of cosmetic nature. thanks Wolfgang
fixed money formatting on invoice overview to use workspace locale rather than language.
fixed project overview scrollbar looking weird.
NEW
Reversal invoices & final invoices are now possible by entering negative budget items (was previously prevented). A 'reversal invoice aka Stornorechnung' is mandatory in some countries to cancel/reverse an incorrect invoice that has been paid, as the reversal invoice often should take up a invoice ID slot. A 'final invoice aka Schlussrechnung or Endrechnung' is regular if not mandatory in some countries like Germany to list the full amount and subtract previous payments as negative budget line items to arrive at the final total up for payment. thanks Andreas
IMPROVED
Email Notifications are more fine-grained so you can configure what kind of content you want to receive in the user settings before we start sending out emails. Nothing worse than getting swamped with stuff you're not interested in. You'll always have the option to unsubscribe in all non-personal, non-transactional emails anyway, so no need to rush.
Project Overview Sorting got a new sibling: Sort by oldest deadline. So you can see the most pressing project right at the top. Welcome to the family. thanks Kathrin
Project Detail Timetracking Billed Entries now show a slightly more precise wording when a project is 'in progress' and/or has a loss and not a markup. Tiny change, but still an improvement.
Improved performance and quirks around Global Modals like Help, Feedback, Upgrade, Whats new, etc. They now load faster and have less flickers. Also fixed the issue of closing a set-link-on-text-mini-modal within the feedback modal also closing the 'parent' feedback modal. It's like a Russian doll, but with less dolls and more modals.
FIXED
fixed sometimes an erroneous 'JWTExpired error' popping up, although everything was fine actually. thanks Johannes, Marion
fixed budget amount and flat fee discount amount fields not accepting 0s after you entered a value. Now 0s are back on the menu. Also you can now backspace-delete the value completely without getting slapped in the face. It also now sits still at the dinner table. thanks Harald
fixed sometimes files like project icons not being delete-able. thanks Eli
fixed trying to double-click within a regular text input selecting the whole field instead of just one word. thanks Marion
fixed Planning View showing incorrect month label depending on timezone. thanks Stephanie
fixed sometimes the upgrade badge in the sidebar not immediately disappearing after upgrading (was just a visual bug, limitations of the free versions were gone immediately).
NEW
Sort Projects by Title in Project Overview is now a thing. Not much to add here. Unless we're talking about garlic. It's always good to add a little more garlic to anything.
IMPROVED
Time Tracking View being stuck when navigating around like a maniac should now be a thing of the past. If you mix and match navigation patterns (click-drag while scrolling while pressing arrow keys while drinking coffee while peeing) the UI might still be a tiny little bit less responsive trying to figure out what on earth you are doing, but at least it shouldn't get stuck anymore. Jumping to today or a date now only works when no scroll or animation is happening to prevent weirdness. So if you're eagerly smashing CMD+T 250 times per second and nothing happens, just wait a little until the last animation/scroll completes. It's not ignoring you, it's just busy. thanks Marion, Lucas, Johannes
Logouts should now happen less frequently. In the unlikely case that roughly a week or two after updating suddenly an error modal comes up with 'JWTExpired', simply restart the app (everything should be fine again) and shout furiously at us at support@fugoya.com (don't worry it'd be deserved). We'll push out a quick hotfix if that's the case for you. thanks Johannes
Updating when your hard drive is full resulted in a too generic error that wasn't actionable. Now you'll get a more helpful error message. thanks Ricardo
FIXED
fixed timezone issues for North-/South American users in flat-date labels. thanks Eli
fixed changing discount type (currency vs. percent) on some numbers being too precise (eg 76.92307692307693%) and then breaking calculations. It is now rounded to 2 decimal places on switch to be safe. thanks Ricardo
improved upgrade modal checkout to retry if request failed, eg when with a bad internet connection. thanks Arnaud
fixed yearly goal stat tile of proposals & invoices accidentally using data from the last 12 months instead of just the current year. Also cleared up wording of payment morale subline a little. thanks Marion
fixed performance period being in wrong order on very rare cases of exact manual additions when creating an invoice from tracking entries. thanks Johannes
fixed project history file uploads sometimes not being in perfect order due to timezone differences. thanks Eli
improved (unfortunately likely not completely fixed, email us at support@fugoya.com if it should happen for you!) situation around rare crashes when rendering PDFs. thanks Andreas
fixed budget timeframe label on invoice not being properly pluralized (hour vs hours, day vs days). thanks Johannes
fixed long project names messing with layout on: Project Detail Top Bar & Invoice/Proposal Overview list. thanks Marion
slightly improved legibility of today view date & time in intro tile. It's not important, so it's still quite muted. But at least noticeable, especially on dark mode. thanks Marion
slightly improved legibility of dark mode tour tooltip texts.
NEW
Well, Windows. Not really a feature per se, but kind of a big deal.
IMPROVED
Performance Period and other date range fields now allow entering the same day as start and end, so you can now set a single day as your performance period. thanks Steffi, ferdik
Tiny foremost windows that are smaller than 50x50 pixels are now disregarded in time tracking. These are usually windows that are not visible to the user and are not relevant for time tracking. Some screenshot tools leverage such helper windows and sometimes they are not closed properly. This change should help a little to prevent such pesky windows from being tracked. If for some reason this affects you negatively, please reach out to support@fugoya.com
FIXED
fixed in rare cases picked day-dates in a timeline block milestone storing your timezone information and then displaying slightly off values when rendered on the server instead of your client. In the rare case you encounter any issues, simply setting the respective date again will resolve any issues.
fixed being able to delete projects with active relations from detail view (already wasn't possible from overview). thanks Lucas
slightly improved pdf rendering performance by roughly 15%. Because in reality 15% aren't really that noticeable, we decided to not make a big deal out of it and just mention it here in the fixes section. Cool too see that you are reading this far into the changelog though. How's it going? I'm good. Thanks for asking. Have a good one.
NEW
Proposal/Invoice Preview while creating a proposal or invoice is one of the most requested features and now finally a reality. Just hit that button in the top bar and have a quick preview of the PDF without downloading it. It uses the same engine as the saved PDF so it should look identical as the saved version. Pro tip: Use CMD+P to make the preview go brrr. thanks Hon and countless others
Mark blocks as page breaking through the button on the right hand side of the block. Blocks that are page breaking simply always move to the next page. This should help you with the layout of your proposals and invoices. It shows you a dashed line above the block to indicate the cliffhanger. When duplicating proposals/invoices, the page breaking property is also copied, but when saving a block to the library and then using it in a different document, the page breaking property is not copied, as it's a different context. thanks Johannes
IMPROVED
Headlines and their siblings in your PDFs that belong together should now rather stay together when it comes to page breaking, just like in your favourite Al Green song. The dynamic nature of flowing pages makes this a little tricky and it will not always produce the perfect result, but as a last resort you can now mark blocks as page breaking anyway, can't you. thanks Andreas
Adding a time tracking entry now scrolls that day to the top so you can see your newly created entry in its full glory and cherish it's existence. thanks Gustav
Template Variables in the sidebar pane while editing a textbox now have better hover states and show in their tootlip an example value they will resolve to. This should help figuring out what each variable does. thanks Gustav
Entering an hours value when creating a budget block now allows for two decimal places instead of one to allow the entry of quarter hours (.25). thanks Andreas
FIXED
fixed support for fractional tax types. thanks Gustav
fixed copying text out of a PDF with certain custom fonts resulting is gibberish due to a faulty font char mapping in some fonts. thanks Johannes & Andreas
fixed PDF list items on page breaks sometimes being broken in the middle thanks Andreas
fixed budget item of days missing currency sign in PDF. thanks Andreas
fixed moving a task that was far in the past but shown today to far in the future not correctly vanishing from the today list visually. thanks Kathrin
he tooltip at time tracking day hours total says 'if there are none then there is no second number', but as Gustav correctly pointed out there was a 0 instead. Made sure it correctly vanishes into the shadow realm and doesn't offend you with it's pathetic '0' presence. thanks Gustav
shortened german translation of project detail time-tracking billed hours markup information as it was breaking over multiple lines and looked worse than David Hasselhoff eating a couple of burgers at midnight.
fixed project budgets of infinity to resolve to 0 instead. Not that we have a clue how you entered a number type value of infinity in the first place. But we're not judging. We're just fixing.
NEW
Automatic Dark/Light Mode is now a setting when choosing a theme. It's follows your system settings, great when you auto-swap themes with changing daylight. thanks Vaibhav, Lucas
A dedicated beta-update-channel is now available to be selected in the Settings for Senseis (valuable people that engage in the community).
IMPROVED
PDF title metadata used to be the name of the selected template. Which, well doesn't make any sense at all. It's now the title of the respective invoice/proposal. While we were at it, we added your Company Name as the creator in the PDF metadata. thanks Steffi
FIXED
fixed flat fee tax budget line only printing the %-value with the words 'exkl. tax'. thanks Andreas, Johannes
fixed onboarding being per machine instead of per account. This led to the second account on the same machine skipping onboarding and therefore crucial steps that are required for flawless operation of the app. thanks Lisa
turned PDF word hyphenation completely off as nailing every word for every language is a science of it's own. Might re-introduce it later when we have better algorithms per language. thanks Johannes
fixed Proposal Archive TopBar being cut off in german.
fixed a couple of minor suboptimal german translations.
NEW
Your currently used email address wasn't actually visible anywhere. You were able to change it, but if you permanently deleted the Fugoya welcome email and login-code emails you actually had no chance of knowing what email-adress you used.
IMPROVED
The sender of emails like when sending out a proposal, an invoice or a reminder through Fugoya always showed 'Fugoya' as the sender, which can be confusing for clients. It now shows your Company Name (the one from Settings > Workspace): 'CompanyName via Fugoya' as the sender. Note that if you previously have sent yourself test emails it can still show up as 'Fugoya' because your email address book saved it as such. New clients, or if you clean respective data, will see the correct 'from'-name. Also note that unchanged is the behaviour that even though the email is sent from documents@fugoya.com, we set a reply-to header, meaning that if your client decides to reply to the email, it should go to your email address. thanks Alessia
FIXED
fixed pasting previously copied textboxes with template-type-specific variables breaking templates. It now pastes all other valid textboxes and simply ignores the incompatible ones, as well as showing a message what happened (eg. you cannot have an expiration_date in an invoice template). Fugoya already was smart enough to prevent you from changing the template type from invoice to proposal if you use an invoice-specific variable and it prevents you from inserting invoice-specific variables from the menu when a proposal template is selected. Just the copy/paste part was an oversight. thanks Alessia
fixed 'LanguageTool for Desktop' being a naughty boi and showing a permanent topmost window, messing up your time tracking. It is now ignored. thanks Simon
fixed tracker heartbeat being confused and showing an error message when logging out (was just a cosmetic thing).
NEW
Week View Tasks with subtasks now show a little subtasks indicator that they indeed have subtasks and how many of the subtasks are completed. Subtasks, subtasks. thanks Litchy
IMPROVED
Restarting view-specific tours is now possible on every view that has a tour so if you want to watch it again you don't have to restart all and then skip them all again like the first time you did. You did, right? thanks Litchy, Nicole and many more
FIXED
fixed week view vertical drag issues with Next/Soon, due to the last project-name-now-showing-update. thanks Lucas
fixed after the last update input placeholders not working properly in the settings. thanks Nicole
fixed Feedback Modal attachment paths being dark on dark in dark mode. Pretty dark. thanks Nicole
fixed rare case of project budget inputs would output wrong values. thanks Valerie
fixed project timeline uploader bar dark mode shadow being bright (yikes).
NEW
Number-based input fields now all gained to ability to enter decimals (well, only the ones where it makes sense), so eg. you can now enter $85,5 per hour for an hourly rate if you wanna keep the amount of hours and final fee. In general handling number fields now should feel a lot better, especially on things like removing values. Additionally the input respects your locale setting (Settings > Workspace > Locale) regarding the input & formatting of your number (so be aware that when you selected German as your locale, you can only enter 100,50 and not 100.50). This update also enables increasing/decreasing values by 1 with the arrow keys (or by 10 with shift) on a lot more fields like hourly rate fields or number-based settings like time tracking threshold. thanks Marion, Johannes
Week View Tasks now show their project so you can better decipher what's the task at hand, especially if you have very similar recurring tasks in every project. thanks Valerie
IMPROVED
Tracking Entry Duration Edit also received the arrow keys increase/decrease and makeover treatment. As a little extra, if you enter 0h and 140m then it auto-balances it to 2h 20m. Nifty.
Template Designer Budget Blocks used to always have USD as the currency for the dummy/preview data, now it's your default currency to avoid any confusion. thanks Kathrin
Placed upgrade button in main sidebar to make it more visible for FREE users that want to upgrade right away.
FIXED
fixed new markup value not being a fair comparison since a gross and a net value are being compared. Now net and net are compared. thanks Marion
fixed Grammarly Desktop taking up the foremost window slot in timetracking. thanks Litchy
fixed new tasks not being up top on manual ordering
fixed tasks due date sorting having the newest on top instead of the oldest, reversed it since things that are or were due sooner are more important than things that are due far in the future.
fixed clicking 'today' in the datepicker in the afternoon selecting a value that sometimes could be rounded up to 'tomorrow' instead of today.
fixed time tracking daily total displaying the value in your language instead of your chosen locale." }, { "description": "fixed inconsistencies in letter spacing on some inputs, especially noticeable when double-click to edit things like a column in a project board.
fixed block currency input not accepting decimals." }, { "description": "fixed block currency input using user language and not workspace locale."
