Latest releases

Everything you configure in Vyer now has one place to go, and buildings without a 3D model get floor plan exports too.

One Settings area

Open Settings from the account menu. On the left, Account holds Profile settings, Notifications, Organization settings, Advanced settings, and Offline downloads. Organization holds Sites, Members, Asset types, Inspection types, Public forms, Data fields, and SSO settings, and Legal holds the Privacy policy and the Terms of service. Each page shows only to the roles that can use it. Profile settings now include your time zone. Links to the old settings pages open the new ones, and emails about your profile and notifications link straight to the matching page.

Members and site access

On Members, change a member's role and which sites they can access, one member at a time or several at once. Invite members from a dialog that describes each role and lets you choose the sites they get access to. Service accounts are created on the same page and show which admin added them.

Edit organization data in tables

Sites, Asset types, Inspection types, Data fields, and Public forms are tables you edit in place. Click a cell to change it, and copy, paste, or delete the value of the selected cell. Resize columns and they keep their width, group rows, and keep your filters when you come back. A totals row sums up the list, and Export asks before it starts. On a phone, selects and filters open from the bottom of the screen.

PDF export from the outdoor map

Vyer Light buildings can now be exported to PDF. Select the building on the outdoor map, open the ⋯ menu in the action bar, and choose PDF export: Floor plan, All floor plans, or Current view, on A3 landscape.

Exporting an asset, a work order, or an area to PDF no longer needs a 3D model either, and it can be started from any map view or from the Inbox. An item in a building without a model, or outdoors, gets pictures from the outdoor map: a Custom view of the map as it is on screen, and an Overview of its building. Choose which of the item's properties are printed with Include properties. When the export is done, the map returns to where you were.

Map markers

The outdoor and indoor maps draw pins, markers, clusters, and labels from the same set, so an item looks the same on both. In the 3D view, the map around the building now covers the site's whole linked property.

Add all rooms within an area

On a floor, the ⋯ menu of an area's shape has Add all rooms within this area. It adds every room that lies entirely inside the shape, one floor at a time.

Bug fixes

In organizations with many sites, the Sites table no longer takes several seconds to load. Sites and buildings without a name show as Unnamed site and Unnamed building instead of blank rows. Select menus no longer cover the field they open from, and long names in filter lists end with an ellipsis and show in full on hover. When batch editing a yes/no field, Cancel and Apply open next to the field. Buildings from Lantmäteriet can be connected again.

Two fixes, shipped in updates on October 21 and October 27.

IFC4 models exported from Revit

A model exported from Revit as IFC4 now converts the same way as an IFC2x3 export of the same building. Each space gets its area. A space without a room number no longer gets one like Rooms : Schakt, and is named by its long name, for example Plan 10. Revit areas such as planting or lawn are no longer treated as rooms, and detail cards no longer show NOTDEFINED. A model already in Vyer picks up the fix the next time it is uploaded.

Annotations in PDFs

Highlights, lines, and notes added to a PDF in an editor such as Adobe Acrobat or Bluebeam now show when the PDF is opened in Vyer, on the page and in the page thumbnails. Form fields in a PDF are not shown.

Work can now be tied to the place it belongs to: an area as well as an asset or a room, and a whole building as well as a single floor.

Connect work orders to an area

A work order or a work request can be connected to an area, in addition to its asset or room. On the area detail card, the Associated work orders section lists them. Choose Add new to create a work order on the area, or Link existing to connect one that is already there. In the Work orders table, the Area column shows each work order's area and lets you change it, and the Area filter narrows the list to one area.

Inspection tasks on a whole building

An inspection task placed on the building as a whole, for example on its facade, now stays on that building instead of moving to the site. When you create a task, the Location field lists buildings as well as floors.

Bike room and Conference room

Two new room icons, Bike room and Conference room, can be set on a space in the table view, in batch edit, and on the room detail card. They show on the indoor map like the other room icons.

Bug fixes

On large buildings, space names on a public form's map no longer take several seconds to appear.

Public forms can now ask questions with a fixed set of answers. Add a label field and give it options, and the person reporting picks one, so each work request arrives sorted the way you set it up.

Label fields

On the Public forms page, open Edit form and choose Add label field. Name the field and add its options. Press Enter to add the next option, and give each option a different name. Make the field required or optional, and drag fields to change their order. Changes to fields are saved straight away. On the form, a label field with more than ten options can be searched.

Show or hide the Category field

The Category field keeps its fixed set of options. Choose Hide from form in its menu to leave it off the form, and Show on form to bring it back. While it is shown, it must be filled in.

Clearer feedback when reporting

When an answer is missing, Send scrolls to the first field that needs one, and an answer of only spaces counts as missing. If sending fails, the form says why next to the button, for example when there is no connection.

Bug fixes

On public forms, picking a location no longer clears the fields already filled in, changing the floor after picking a space works, and a removed image can be added again. Fetching energy certificates from Boverket works again, after a change on Boverket's side.
