The Details

In this "What's New" we will walk you through the latest features and improvements we've introduced to GLX. Let's dive in!

New Landing Page

Our revamped landing page includes:

  1. A "Getting Started" help section

  2. A list of collaborative tasks

  3. An organizational level summary of workspaces and media assets

  4. Recent workspaces and Media Library assets across your organization

Quick Links

Access to essential features and functions more easily with our new Quick Links.

Introducing "Our Media" and "Our Projects"

Two new top-level navigation elements have been added to help you focus your efforts: "Our Media" and "Our Projects". Projects encompass the workspaces and publishing activities you perform for the content you source and deliver to Our Media's Media Library. We will be enhancing discovery features in releases to come by the introduction of new Media experiences.

"Our Projects" replaces the previous "Home"

We've consolidated to Our Projects the Workspaces and Publishing apps. The Our Projects landing page contains the content you previously found in the "Home" page. We've added a new Workspaces app to list all workspaces present not just the last five open workspaces. From the Workspace app you can create new workspaces using its "New Workspace" button.

You can now enjoy the flexibility of working on multiple workspaces simultaneously, with your progress saved across logins. No longer do you need to reopen workspaces between logins.

New Default Workspace

A default workspace has been introduced for a better user experience. This is a built-in workspace intended for those that are learning about the concept. This reduces the amount of unnecessary workspaces. And, speaking of unnecessary workspaces, you can now delete them.

Improved Workspace Navigation

Each asset now opens in a separate workspace tab. Seamlessly switch between multiple open workspaces and the Media Library without losing your progress. Open workspaces remain open between logins until they are closed.

Updated Workspace Lists

We've created a new workspace list. Media Mixes and screening rooms are now more clearly displayed as assets of the workspace.

Enhanced Workspace Filters

Filter workspaces by type or use the search bar to quickly find what you're looking for.

Asset Previews

Select a row to preview an asset, or use the expand button to view all assets at once.

Opening Assets

  • Mixes and Screening Rooms open in separate tabs for easy access

  • Video and audio previews are available, with in-tab annotations coming soon

  • Other media (e.g., Word documents) can be downloaded directly from the browser

Open Dropdown Menu

Access a range of actions, including our new Quick Actions for frequently used tasks.

New Workspace Side Panel

Perform various actions and view properties more efficiently with our new side panel.

Creating New Assets and Workspaces

  • Use the "New" dropdown menu to create a Screening Room, a Media Mix, or add assets to a workspace

  • Need a new workspace for a new project? Simply create a new workspace directly from the "Workspaces" tab

No Changes to Media Library, for Now

Please note that there are no changes to the Media Library at this time. However, we are working on an update to replace the current card view with the list view, similar to what's available in workspaces.
