Size of Files in Download Packages Now in Binary Format
Previously, the size of files in a download package on the Downloads > List Downloads page did not match the size of the downloaded files. In this release, file sizes in the End-User Portal are now calculated using a binary conversion so that the raw byte size is divided by a power of 2 rather than a power of 10, as used previously. For example, with this conversion 1 KB now represents 1024 bytes, rather than the 1000 bytes previously calculated. As a result, the Downloads > List Downloads page now shows the size of files in the download package in binary format, the same format used for downloaded-file sizes, thus eliminating the file-size discrepancies.
Issue with Downloads Incorrectly Tagged as “anonymous user” Downloads Resolved
Previously, downloads that were not “anonymous user” downloads were logged as such if an end user used the Download Now link from the List Entitlements page on the End-User Portal. This issue has been resolved.
Extended File Descriptions with Anchored Tags Now Properly Displaying
When an Extended Description for a file in a download package was defined with anchor tags (such as tags to create an HTML link) in the Producer Portal, the description was not displaying properly on the Downloads page in the End-User Portal. The description is now displaying correctly.
Column Sort Issue on File Download Page Resolved
(End-User Portal) Clicking the File Size or File Added column header in the Download Selected Files grid on the Downloads page did not properly sort the entries in the grid. These sort techniques are working.
