Introduction
A new type of search is introduced called “Content Search”.All called "Content Search" has been introduced. It involves scanning all documents (of supported formats) added to the system will now be scanned for their text content. This content is then indexed and becomes , indexing the content, and making it searchable.
Locations of documents that support content search include:
attachmentsAttachments
background Background drawings
notes Notes in redline and change requests

File Name: represents Represents the found file name.
File Title: if If possible to extract, represents a title found in the document (e.g. Word document title).
Object: represent Represents a type of owner object:
Drawing - the The text was found in a background drawing
Attachment - the The text was found in a file that is stored as an Attachment
Note - the The text was found as a part of a Note located on a drawing (either Redline or Change Request)
Location: Provides access to all paths where the document is located.
Path: Offers a quick view for the path where the object is located (. Please note : that only the first path is displayed. Red asterix A red asterisk at the end of the path indicates that there are more paths available -– use the location view to examine all paths).
Name: Name Denotes the name of the owner document (where the t he attachment is linked to or where the t he Note is i s present).
Class Name: Reflects the Type/Class of the t he owner object

General
In the General settings, you can select an Indexing language can be selected. The . It is recommended to choose the language that matches most the majority of the content in the system should be selected.
If you have a lot of mixed content, selecting the "Simple" indexing option can yield better results can be obtained by selecting “Simple” indexing.
Each change of Please note that changing this setting will result in trigger a system-wide update of the index. (this operation However, it will not rescan the documents).
File Index Status
File The file index status lists all provides a list of all files in the system that can potentially be potentially indexed for search. Use You can use the filter buttons to select files in a specific state.
Note Please take note of the Index all / Index selected buttons - that allows , which allow you to re-read the content of the files. Please note It's important to be aware that running this command for all files in the system might be a time-consuming process.

Predefined shapes: Arrow and Balloon
...
Arrows: Arrows consist of a dot marking the beginning and an arrowhead marking the end.
To draw an arrow, simply sketch it from the starting point to the endpoint. The shape and size of these markings are fixed, with dimensions derived from the width of the arrow line.
For further detailsmore information, please refer to the Styles section.
...
Balloons:
A balloon is composed consists of balloon text and a balloon pointer, with the arrowhead marking the end of the pointer. The text is automatically framed.
To create a balloon, first click where the pointer should point, then draw the line up to where you want the text and click again.
...
Text anchor adjustments can be made to achieve the your desired connection effect between the line and frame.
...
Size & Styles: Common styles for arrows and balloons can be defined in the Arrows section of System Settings on the FMA Administration page.
These styles function similarly to those in work in a similar way to those in the Labels section. Changes Adjustments made to line width or color apply to affect all existing arrows and balloons, while whereas changes in font family and size alterations only impact affect newly created balloon texts, retaining any changes made thereaftersubsequent modifications.
Utilizing Using a nominal drawing scale is beneficial advantageous when aiming for targeting specific pixel font sizes on printouts produced at a declared specified scale.
When set to Auto, the nominal drawing scale determines establishes the font size for new balloons based on a fraction of the current drawing's extent total size.
Save & Share Grid View filters

Issue [HDC-4556]
A new system option is available has been introduced to indicate if whether a field is read-only in the Object Properties view and in the column headers of the Grid List.
When a user has editing permissions for an object, a padlock icon will be displayed shown next to any field that is not available for editing (i.e., set to read-only for that user).
If the entire object is not available for editing by the user, the padlock icons will not be displayed.
Here is 's an example of read-only fields in the Object Properties view:
...
| Info |

Please note that for the Parent class tabs like Document, a padlock icon will be visible according to the parent's class Read-Only FLS, not child classes. That This means that for a precise to view of read-only fields in the child class accurately, you should use such tab should be used and not instead of the parent class. |
The read only fields are now also shown in the Object Edit Form as read only / disabled fields:

Improved MasterGUID (FMGUID) Handling
MasterGUID (FMGUID) is serves as a unique identifier for an object. In a typical scenario, it should never be changed and must remain consistent across all integrated systems.
There Previously, there were several limitations with this property , as since it was not stored as part of the object's metadata, and the identifier was maintained as unique across versions and drafts.
...
Now, any object can be found using QuickSearch and along with its associated MasterGUID.
QuickSearch will automatically check if a query is a GUID and, if so, return any matching results from the MasterGUID registry.
...
Note: A search by MasterGUID will be performed if If the query string is a valid GUID. Partial , a search by MasterGUID will be conducted.
It's important to note that partial match is not supported in this type of search.
Enhanced Support in Advanced Search
Advanced The advanced search functionality now enables has been enhanced to allow users to search for locate specific objects using their GUIDs.
Every object class now includes a A new system field called MasterGUID, which is named MasterGUID has been added to every object class, making it searchable.
...
Note: When a GUID field is selected, a query string must be a valid GUID.
...
Please note that this operation will update the master object registry, resulting in the selected object having a new GUID registered across the system, affecting all versions and drafts. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
To perform this action:
Select the edit button located next to
...
the GUID field
...
.
Note:
The GUID field cannot be updated together with other metadata.
In addition to edit permissions for the object, an Administrator role is required. (Access Basic Admin Operations)
...
Change the GUID and save.
...
MasterGUID in API Calls
Several Many API calls now support allow the direct use of MasterGUID instead of ObjectClass and ObjectId.
If an integrated system has access to MasterGUID, there is no need to go through undergo the object translation process to obtain the internal ID. This simplifies and streamlines API interactions.
...
A MasterGUID can be used to identify an object. , eliminating the need for ObjectId and ClassId are not needed in that case.
