What's new in previous versions of harmon.ie for SharePoint

Version 2 Service Pack 2 (March 30, 2011)

  • Navigate to a SharePoint link - The new Enter a Link button transforms the site selection drop-down to allow pasting or typing a SharePoint URL inside it and navigating to that URL.
  • Open document properties on upload – The option Open the properties window on every upload is added to allow easy editing of document properties when uploading, even if there are no required fields.
  • Picture libraries support – view and upload pictures from harmon.ie to picture libraries on SharePoint.
  • Favorites default name – When adding a favorite location harmon.ie suggests using the breadcrumbs path as the favorites name.
  • Group e-mails by original subject – A new metadata field for uploaded e-mails called OriginalSubject provides an easy way to group conversation e-mails in SharePoint web views.
  • Important bug fixes:
    • #14022: Some content types are missing from the content type list in 'Choose Content type' dialog

In cases the SharePoint server uses session-based cookies for authentication, Internet Explorer 8 and above is required.
  • Improvements to the save attachments process – Drag and drop documents and saving attachments to SharePoint’s versioning-enabled document library will prompt the user to either add a new version to existing documents or create a new document.
