 ==== Release Notes ====
-=== Current release Build #3.0.3 (as of Monday November 17th 2025) ====
+=== Current release Build #3.2.0 ====
+''Release Date:'' 23 September 2026\\
+''Release Type:'' Minor Release
+== Overview ==
+My Pathomation 3.2.0 introduces a range of improvements based on customer feedback. This release focuses on new capabilities designed to support large educational organizations while also addressing a number of minor issues and usability enhancements.
+=== Key Benefits ===
+* Improved navigation behavior between slides and content items\\
+* Support for ''.pdf'' documents as educational and reference content\\
+* Timed content availability and group membership management\\
+* Increased visibility of content ownership and provenance\\
+== Key Improvements ==
+=== Text Content ===
+* ''.pdf'' documents can now be added to the platform and shared consistently across all areas of My Pathomation.
+=== Group Membership ===
+* When a manager adds a person who is already a member of the organization, they are added directly to the selected group.\\
+* When a manager enters an email address that does not belong to the organization, the platform notifies them and offers to send an invitation.\\
+* Managers can define ''membership start and end dates'' when adding one or more members to a group.\\
+* Membership dates are saved and enforced automatically.\\
+* Once the end date has passed, the member loses access to the group and its associated content.\\
+* Users can hold memberships with different validity periods across multiple groups simultaneously.\\
+=== Content Availability ===
+* Managers can define an availability date for individual content items assigned to groups.\\
+* Collections, slide boxes, courses, and quizzes display the period during which a group has access.\\
+* Quizzes can now be configured with a limited number of attempts instead of only allowing unlimited retakes.\\
+=== Finding Content ===
+* Collections, slide boxes, courses, quizzes, and groups now display a ''Created By'' column.\\
+* The ''Created By'' column can be sorted and filtered in all supported lists.\\
+* Notifications informing users that new content is available now include additional contextual information.\\
+=== Viewing and Navigation ===
+* When a manager switches to ''Member View'' while viewing a content item, they remain on that item instead of being redirected to the dashboard.\\
+* A ''next slide button'' is added for images in a same slide folder\\
+* In ''Member View'', managers see the content exactly as members do.\\
+* ''Shared collection links'' provide the same viewing capabilities as logged-in access, including viewing multiple images.\\
+* ''Multiviewer'' and ''single viewer'' mode enabled. Switching images in a collection opens them in one viewer rather than opening a second window per thumbnail.\\
+* Collection viewing: a ''next slide'' advance button is added for images in a same collection when in single view mode.\\
+* On iPad devices, page layouts scale correctly and interface controls no longer overlap.\\
+* Greyed-out visual indicators have been added to clearly identify functions unavailable in My Pathomation Personal Space and AI & Case Sharing plans.\\
+* Panel collapse controls have been made more consistent throughout the platform.\\
+=== Bug Fixes ===
+* Fixed an issue preventing login to ''PMA.Start'' when the associated organization had a "No plan total" status.\\
+* Fixed an incorrect pop-up message displayed when adding slides to a collection containing no slides.\\
+* Fixed an issue where the PMA.Start tab would not change correctly after navigating directly via URL.\\
+* Implemented the Screen Wake Lock API in My Pathomation.\\
+* Fixed navigation behavior in Member View to keep users on the currently selected content item.\\
+* Fixed an issue where annotations were not displayed when opening a slide in a new browser tab.\\
+* Resolved thumbnail loading issues in My Pathomation.\\
+* Fixed rendering issues affecting multiple KI-67 AI overlays on the same whole-slide image (WSI).\\
+* Fixed ''quiz report'' exports so that questions and corresponding answers appear in the correct columns.\\
+* Fixed invitation delivery issues affecting email addresses using the @me.com domain.\\
+* Resolved cached entity issues that could occur when switching organizations in My Pathomation.\\
+=== Known Issues ===
+* The dashboard may continue to display a previously subscribed plan after a new plan has been purchased. This issue will be addressed in version 3.2.1, scheduled shortly after the 3.2.0 release. If you encounter this issue before upgrading, please contact info@pathomation.com for assistance.\\

+= My Pathomation 3.1.0 – Release Notes =
+'''Release Date:''' 23 March 2026
+'''Release Type:''' Minor Release
+== Release note addendum AI annotation behaviour changes clarification April 30th, 2026 ==
+The new released PMA.core viewer and AI result rendering that are essential components providing functionality to My Pathomation were updated to PMA.core v3.0.8 and AI 1.1 on April 3rd, 2026. These software versions introduced improved handling of AI generated annotations to allow better image reactivity. This has altered the behaviour of viewing the AI generated annotations. \\
+When AI annotations are present at high density, meaning most individual cells in a tissue area are annotated the viewer will only show all individual annotations present in the image at higher magnification fields of view. You can notice an incremental annotation apparition behaviour matching the capacity of the observer to discern individual elements in the image, the software will take in account the available field of view of a magnification and saturate it with annotations. \\
+As you move from lower magnifications 1x-10x to 20x-40x and the field of view starts to reveal individual cells the software will show every annotation present in densely packed annotation areas. \\
+**Please be aware that high magnification views are required to see annotations classes that are present only in low minority numbers in between a large majority number of another class.**
+{{ :annotation_saturation_behaviour_1.png?600 |}}
+**It is good practice to always check the AI result panel for the presence of minority class annotations.**\\
+With the PMA.core v3.0.8 update we inadvertently stopped the possibility to hide the annotations with the selection feature (1). A new release PMA.core 3.0.9 will remedy this bug and the release is planned in the beginning of May.\\
+It can be helpful as an alternative to mouse over the 'visor' icon (2) that highlights the selected class annotations for quick location in the slide.

+=== AI Analysis Improvements ===
+Improvements have been made to ensure '''more reliable AI analysis results'''.
+'''Fixes include:'''
+* The user can now predefine standard size rectangle annotations to create '''standard ROI area size''' on images\\
+* Improved handling of '''ROI limits''' for AI algorithms, when a user defined ROI exceeds the allowed maximal size of the AI algorithm the software proposes to run a whole slide analysis on the ROI\\
+* Whole slide image AI algorithms can now also be run on large ROI to allow '''control tissue is excluded''' where required\\
+* Improvements algorithm result display allowing for copy pasting of results\\
+=== Slide Management Improvements ===
+Several bug fixes improve how slides and collections behave within the platform.
+* When changing a viewport setting in a collection a pop-up explains '''viewport settings applies to the collection shares'''\\
+* Deleted slides now '''disappear correctly from collections'''\\
+* Slides become '''available immediately after uploading'''\\
+* Individual image filenames are displayed inside the corresponding images and auto-dimension with the image during zooming and panning in '''collage view'''\\
