Release date: November 18th, 2025 ET
We released the following updates since 8.79:
Improvements:
The Importer now supports adding and removing values in multi-entity fields, giving you precise control over bulk updates.
Previously, updating multi-entity fields with the Importer would always overwrite existing values. Now you can choose exactly how to handle your updates of multi-entity fields.
New update modes
When importing data to multi-entity fields, you can now select from three update modes:
-
Overwrite: Replace the field’s entire contents with values from your uploaded file.
-
Add: Append new values from your file while preserving existing field data (prevents duplicates).
-
Remove: Delete values that match those in your file, leaving other existing values intact.
Note:
Single entity fields (like Description or Status) continue to use Overwrite mode only.
Add mode is perfect when you need to assign additional assets to shots without losing existing assignments.
Remove mode is ideal for tasks like cleaning up outdated asset assignments across multiple shots.

You can now copy and paste views between pages. This feature lets you duplicate any view on a page, and then paste it in the same page, or any other page in the same project or in another project.
To copy a view:
-
Go to the page with the view to copy.
-
Select Page Settings > Design Page to enter the page’s Design Mode.
-
In the view to copy, select the View menu > Copy View.
A message lets you know the view is copied.
To paste a view:
-
Go to the page where you want to paste the copied view.
-
Select Page Settings > Design Page to enter the page’s Design Mode.
-
From any one of the displayed view, select the View menu > Paste View.
The copied view is added to the page, to the right of the current view. You can move it using Move View Left and Move View Right options in the view menu.
Note:
The Paste View option is available only if you have previously copied a view. If your clipboard contains other content, Paste View is disabled.
Documentation

You can now type specific values directly into number field filters instead of using sliders.
This makes it faster and more precise to filter by exact values, whether you’re searching for a specific shot ID, frame count, or other metadata.

You can now set default values for Number, Float, Text, and Date fields in addition to Status, List, and Checkbox fields.
This enhancement makes it easier to standardize data entry across your projects—whether you’re setting a default frame count for shots, pre-populating text descriptions, or establishing consistent start dates for tasks.
New entities automatically use the default values you’ve configured.

You can now create notes using Command(⌘)+Enter (macOS) or Ctrl+Enter (Windows) without reaching for your mouse.
This keyboard shortcut works anywhere the Create Note dialog is available, helping you maintain your workflow and capture notes more efficiently while keeping your hands on the keyboard.
These shortcuts work in any context where you can create notes.
