Trial-3 Release Info

  • An XO that is acting as an MPP (mesh portal point) cannot participate in local mesh collaboration.
  • Save photos
    • Record has changed a lot, and as a result, old entries cannot be opened on the new build
    • Follow these steps to save photos; unfortunately, videos will be lost.
    1. Drag photos from record onto the clipboard.
    2. Scroll over the clipboard images, and select "add to journal"

New Features:

Private Invitation:

  1. XO-1 starts an activity (such as abiword)
  2. From the neighborhood mesh view of XO-1, they find XO-2, who they want to share with.
  3. Hover over XO-2 and click on 'Invite'. This invites XO-2 to the current activity of XO-1
  4. From XO-2's taskbar tray, they will now see an icon of the shared activity in the colors of XO-1
  5. XO-2 clicks on this activity and it brings up the shared file.

Sharing a bookmark in Browse:

  1. Open the browser and go to a url of interest
  2. From the browse tab, click on the star in the upper right, next to the url window. This will create a bookmark
  3. Click on 'share with neighborhood'
