🌈 Customer-Facing Release

Performance Improvements

  • Large lessons now load faster, especially on the Report Page, reducing wait times and improving the user experience.

🐛 Bug Fixes in the People View

  • Bug Fixes:
    • Resolved an issue where stimulator controls wouldn’t appear if the PowerLab was connected after kuraCloud Desktop started.
    • Addressed cases where the panel could be blank or fail to update, avoiding misleading messages during sampling panel loading.
  • Background Sampling: Controls are now disabled during background sampling.

3. Content Library Search and Filtering:

  • Removed the "Distance Learning" filter option.
  • Fixed issues with filtering using the "Lt Sensors" option.
  • Added a "Preview" button for lessons included in modules.
