architect - 6.4.0

Network Canvas Architect 6.4.0

This release of Architect implements the ability to specify the minimum and maximum number of alters to be created on a name generator stage, and adds additional skip logic and filter options for working with categorical variables.

Implementing these features required increasing the protocol schema version to 7. Installing this update will enable you to upgrade existing protocols to this schema version. This update should be installed by any users wishing to take advantage of these new features. If you wish to edit a protocol with a prior schema version without updating it, do not install this update.

The minimum/maximum alter functionality was funded through collaboration with Dr Jereed Ivanich at the Colorado School of Public Health. If you are interested in commissioning feature development for Network Canvas, please see our documentation on the subject.

Changelog:

  • Implemented minimum and maximum limits for the number of alters that can be named on name generator type interfaces. When specified, the user will be prompted to name more alters, or prevented from adding additional alters as appropriate.
  • Implemented new rule types that allow you to work with the number of categorical values that have been selected within a categorical variable, regardless of their value.

- JavaScript
Published by wwqrd almost 5 years ago

architect - 6.1.0

Network Canvas Architect 6.1.0

This is the first significant feature update to Architect since our launch. These changes required a new protocol schema version, which means that any current protocols opened in this version of Architect will be automatically migrated to the latest schema version. Review the changelog below, and take extra care when updating if you are currently in the process of collecting data.

Changelog:

  • Changed the behavior of boolean variables. Boolean variables were previously assumed to be 'false' unless explicitly set to true during the interview. They are now set to 'null'. This means that skip logic or filtering rules that deal with boolean variables should be reviewed to ensure they are functioning as you intended. This change also means that boolean variables that are never explicitly set to either true or false will not be exported as node or edge attributes. If you require these variables to be exported, ensure they are set to a value.
  • Added a new interface: the "Tie-Strength Census". This interface follows the same paradigm as our dyad census, except it assigns a value to an ordinal variable if an edge is present. This can be used to capture both the strength and existence of a relationship in one interaction. It resulted from a collaboration with Dr. Brea Perry at the Indiana University Network Science Institute.
  • Introduced a new input component: "BooleanChoice". This new component is available for boolean variable types, and differs from the existing toggle switch in two ways: (1) it requires user interaction to set a value (it has no default), and (2) it supports rich labels describing each 'choice'.
  • Introduced markdown support for field labels and option values. This means that all field labels and option values for ordinal/categorical form variables can now contain limited rich text formatting, such as bold and italic text. A WYSIWYG editor has been added to make formatting these labels more straightforward.
  • Introduced new validation options: unique, differentFrom, and sameAs.
    • sameAs - Requires that a variable value be the same as another variable value.
    • differentFrom - Requires that a variable value be different from another variable value.
    • unique - Requires that a variable value be unique among all entities of the same type.
  • Fix an issue that caused the app to crash when creating a new boolean variable on the additional attributes screen.
  • Fixed an issue with creating ordinal and categorical variables that could lead to being able to change their type.
  • Fixed an issue that could lead to the timeline displaying as empty even when there is content in the protocol.

architect - 4.2.0

Welcome to Architect 4.2.0

This release includes the following fixes and improvements:

  • Important: Protocol schema version 2. We have implemented a new version of our protocol file format, along with the ability to automatically migrate any existing protocol files (in the old format) that you may have. Please contact us if you experience any issues with this feature.
  • New feature: stage level node filtering. You can now construct rules to filter which nodes are shown on a given stage. Use this to ask follow-up questions about only nodes with certain attributes.

Release notes:

This release contains the following fixes:

  • Fixed an issue where the app could crash or behave unexpectedly when opening another protocol while on the edit interface screen.
  • Fixed an issue where adding or removing an asset did not mark the protocol as needing to be saved.
  • Made the highlight variable a required field in the sociogram interface editor
  • Fixed an issue where the user would get a validation error about a variable not having a 'type' property.
  • Allowed changing the component type when creating a new variable, and explained why it cannot be changed when reusing an existing variable.
  • Improved the scrollbar within modals for Windows users.
  • Miscellaneous small user interface fixes.

There are several "known issues" with this release. Please find them below.

  • When a select box is open, it is possible to scroll the body of the page, which causes the select items to detach from the box.
    • Strategies for mediation: Avoid scrolling the main page while a select item is open.
    • Long term resolution: Block body scrolling or adjust select children position relative to body scroll (https://github.com/codaco/Architect/issues/155)

    • Strategies for mediation: Use other variable types wherever possible.
    • Long term resolution: This functionality will be implemented as soon as possible.
  • You cannot edit categorical and ordinal variables created on Categorical and Ordinal Interfaces. That is: you cannot add, remove, or edit options, or view existing values.
    • Strategies for mediation: The current workflow requires you to create a new variable with the options you need, and then delete the old one.
    • Long term resolution: We realise this is less than ideal! We will update this interface to show the ordinal/categorical options for the currently selected variable, and allow these options to be edited.

    • Long term resolution: This functionality will be implemented as soon as possible.
  • When a screen is being edited, if a protocol is opened through the app menu, Architect continues to edit stage at that index (even if it does not exist)
    • Strategies for mediation: Open protocol from either the start screen, or the protocol overview screen.
    • Long term resolution: We can update the loadAndImport module to reset screens module.
  • You cannot edit categorical and ordinal variables created on Categorical and Ordinal Interfaces. That is: you cannot add, remove, or edit options, or view existing values.
    • Strategies for mediation: The current workflow requires you to create a new variable with the options you need, and then delete the old one.
    • Long term resolution: We realise this is less than ideal! We will update this interface to show the ordinal/categorical options for the currently selected variable, and allow these options to be edited.
  • When editing a stage, if the blue “issues panel” is open, any modal windows you open will be pushed upwards and have their top cut off.
    • Strategies for mediation: You can scroll the background to see the top of the modal window. Alternatively, you can address the issues highlighted in the blue panel, which will cause it to disappear.
    • Long term resolution: We plan to fix this issue in a future release: https://github.com/codaco/Architect/issues/473
  • Creating multiple variables on a single name generator form field editor causes variables to be created that have no ‘type’. This creates an invalid protocol.
    • Strategies for mediation: Only create a single variable on this screen. If you accidentally create a second variable, cancel out of the form field editor and start again. If your protocol becomes corrupt as a result of this error, contact us in order to recover it.
    • Long term resolution: We plan to fix this issue in a future release: https://github.com/codaco/Architect/issues/539

Release notes:

There are several "known issues" with this release. Please find them below.

  • When a select box is open, it is possible to scroll the body of the page, which causes the select items to detach from the box.
    • Strategies for mediation: Avoid scrolling the main page while a select item is open.
    • Long term resolution: Block body scrolling or adjust select children position relative to body scroll (https://github.com/codaco/Architect/issues/155)
