New welcome screen

Many users mentioned that running Dataedo for the first time can be complicated due to the amount of information on our starting screen. We've decided to rebuild it from scratch to make starting the app more straightforward.

Redesigned ribbon

Another thing that complicated using Dataedo was the positioning of ribbon buttons. Many users tried the New/Open button (which most users don't really need) to add new documentations due to its prominent position. Now the button for adding new documentation is moved to the start of the ribbon. We've also updated some of the icons so their use is clearer. We believe this will make choosing the right options easier for new users to use Dataedo.

Other improvements

  • Fixed an issue with primary and unique key icons in HTML export
  • Removed "(64 bit)" from menu start option, leaving just "Dataedo", to make it more obvoius as a default option
  • Upgrading file repository checks the user's license before upgrading now
