Shotgun Basic Configuration v1.0.41

What's new?

Integrations now work without an internet connection. Bug fixes for the Shotgun web app integration. Improvements to stability and resiliency.

Features/polish

• Modified the backup logic in Bootstrap so that it doesn’t keep an endless number of tk-core backups. [41418]
• Disabled the logout feature from the Shotgun Menu when the Maya plugin runs in Shotgun integration. [41524]
• Demoted info message to debug. This was causing info popups in the Shotgun engine and should
  really be debug rather than info. [42873]
• Added support for tabs in Shotgun Desktop. [43528]
• Applied Toolkit standard styling to custom panels in Shotgun Desktop. [43719]

Bugs

• Users couldn’t enter into a project if its core version was higher than the one used by Shotgun Desktop. This fix ensures users can enter their projects. [42679]
• Subprocesses would not inherit the bundle cache from the parent, which led to inefficient re-caching of bundles and prevented Shotgun integrations from working in offline mode. This fix enabled Shotgun integration workflow in offline mode. [42966]
• The Shotgun Desktop about box was not showing up when using a locked site config. This fix ensures the about box appears. [43224]
• Empty cache files led to error messages. This fix handles empty cache files gracefully. [43236]
• If a user had more than one instance of an app, then it failed to display all instances of the app after a context change and only displayed the first instance. This fix displays all instances of the app. [43403]
• If one of the apps in an environment raised an error during initialization, the environment didn’t populate any items in Shotgun menus. This fix ensures that all other menu items still show up. [43032]
• The Publish2 app was querying Shotgun unnecessarily when selecting items in the publish list. This fix prevents the unnecessary queries and speeds up user interaction. [43803]

Shotgun Basic Configuration v1.0.39

Features/Polish

• Set Framerange app added to Shotgun Basic Configuration. [41726]
• Publisher 2 app added to Shell Engine. [42793]
• Better handling for screenshots on Linux when Imagemagick is not installed. The built-in QT based approach is being used as a fallback. [42736]
• Removed use of tag_list for app store logic to comply with upcoming deprecation of that feature. [43276]

Bugs

• An error appeared in the browser console when opening a design page. This fix ensures there is no error. [42933]
• Menu items were taking a long time to cache. This fix centralizes YML file data lookup and caches the resulting data, reducing the amount of file IO required by the browser integration and greatly improving speed when dealing with configs that live on network file servers. [43057]
• Menu items for some entity types were not displaying. If a config contains shotgun_xxx.yml environment files, this fix ensures that the menu items from those environment files will show up. [43058]
• Task entities received actions configured for either Shot or Asset types, depending on which the specific Task was linked to. This was the case even if a specific shotgun_task.yml file existed in the config. This fix resolves Task entity cache keys when the websocket code path is used to get actions. [43060]
• Toolkit did not properly launch an application into the correct pipeline configuration. This fix ensures applications opens in the right pipeline configuration. [42198]
• The sg descriptor latest lookups was not working correctly. This fix ensures omitting the version number or using the "latest" keyword now works. [43137]
