Release Notes

August 2026

Breaking change

• New Gramax design. Rebuilt the interface from the ground up: panels, menus, and editor tools feel more modern and nicer to work with.

• CSS variables for space styles. Along with the new design, the set of CSS variables used to customize the app's look has changed too.

  Old variables stopped working

  If you customized the app with space CSS styles, check and update them — see the Application Styles article for the current list of variables.

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Reader role for SSO groups. Read access can now be granted to an entire SSO group from LDAP or Azure, not just individual users. Renaming the group at the provider no longer resets the access it was granted.

• Health monitoring. It can now be connected to a monitoring system or Kubernetes to automatically catch problems — like a broken module or an unresponsive service — instead of waiting for users to report them. Learn more.

• License info in space settings. A License tab is now available — the admin can see the license status, expiry date, and the number of available and used editor licenses without requesting it separately.

• Agent:

  • Context compression. The agent now compresses the conversation history as it approaches the token limit, so a long conversation doesn't just cut off. The moment of compression is visible in the chat history.

  • Its own skills. The agent can now create and edit skills itself, not just use existing ones.

  • Secrets for authorization. App settings now have a Keys and passwords tab — fill in secrets there, and the agent can authenticate with external services. The password or token value itself is never sent to the model.

  • Git support. The agent now reads commit history and file changes, switches and compares branches, and can roll an article back to a given revision, fully or partially.

  • Audio transcription. The agent can transcribe voice attachments in chat — this requires a Nexara service token configured in the space.

  • Multiple sessions at once. You can now run several conversations with the agent at the same time — it works on them in parallel, without waiting for the previous one to finish.

General changes

• Automatic LFS storage for attachments. Every file added to an article is now stored in Git LFS automatically — turn it on with the Store new attachments in LFS toggle in space settings. Learn more.

• New Gramax design:

  • Customize your workspace. Panels (Publish, Branches, History, Notes, and others) can be resized, expanded to full screen, moved anywhere, or pinned to the right-side panel — whatever's convenient. The left and right navigation can also be dragged to any width you want.

  • Article properties in the right navigation. They used to be shown as a row of tags above the article title.

  • Updated search window. The search window's look was refreshed to match the new design.

• Customizable home page layout. Catalogs on the home page can now be grouped however you like: create sections, rename them, and drag catalogs into them. That layout is visible only to you, and in Gramax Enterprise Server, a space admin can set up a shared layout for everyone — it appears on the reading portal and for users who haven't set up their own. Learn more.

  

• Clearer file preview. The preview now looks like a separate window: you see the file name and type, with actions at the top — open separately, download, close. Multi-page documents and Excel spreadsheets now have page or sheet navigation and zoom controls.

  

• Image compression. A new Image compression toggle is available in app settings — turn it on, and every image inserted into an article is automatically compressed to WEBP, shrinking the file size with no noticeable loss of quality; off keeps the image as is. Learn more.

• AI search on static sites. AI search, previously available only on the reading portal, can now be set up for a statically built site too. Learn more.

• Article history survives renames and moves. The article filter in catalog history now shows the article's full history, even if it was renamed or moved to a different folder — earlier edits don't disappear.

• Line break with Shift+Enter. Shift+Enter inside a list item used to start a new paragraph. Now it breaks the line within the current paragraph instead — just like in Word, Google Docs, and Confluence. To start a new paragraph within the same item, press Cmd/Ctrl+Enter.

• Improvements and stability:

  • Faster Git operations. Publishing, syncing, and switching branches in large catalogs got almost 30x faster.

  • Edits no longer lost on a sync failure. An interrupted sync or branch switch no longer costs unsaved edits — Gramax restores them, and any conflict with changes from another branch can be resolved by hand.

  • Faster article opening from search results. Large articles with lots of links now open noticeably faster from search results.

  • Cursor stays in the article after typing the title. Previously, after typing a new article's title and pressing Enter, you had to click into the text to keep typing — and what you'd typed could sometimes get lost. Now you can keep writing right away.

July 2026

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Web search in the Gramax agent. The agent can now search the internet for up-to-date information and use it in its answers — turn on web search with the icon. Desktop app only. Learn more.

• Repository cloning for readers. Users with the "Reader" role can now sign in to the editor, clone repositories they have access to, and switch between branches — the publish button stays hidden for them.

• Bulk permission management in the admin panel. Granting access to 10 users across 50 repositories used to take 500 separate actions. Now, on the Users, User groups, and Repositories tabs, you can select several rows at once and change access or groups for all of them in one action. Learn more.

• Transparent file transfer on space LFS setting changes. When large-file storage rules change at the space level, Gramax now offers to transfer the files and shows a clear diff of .gitattributes — the service file no longer shows up among the user's own changes in the publish window.

• Attachment indexing control for search. An administrator can temporarily turn off attachment processing for search without stopping catalog updates or full-text search — useful when updating a large catalog would otherwise slow down the reading portal for a long time. Learn more.

General changes

• App settings. All settings are now collected in one window with sections in the sidebar. Experimental features used to open from a separate button — now it's just one more section in the same window. Open it from the profile icon on the home page. Learn more. Several sections also gained new capabilities:

  • Image compression. You can now tune compression rules yourself — pick the conversion format, quality, and compression effort, instead of a single fixed scheme. Learn more.

  • Automatic updates. Previously there was no way to roll back to an earlier version after a failed update. Now you can return to an already-downloaded earlier version at any time, and choose how often to check for updates. If the version you need isn't cached, download it from the update server's download page, which lists every version for every channel and platform. Learn more.

  • Diagnostics. Previously the log archive always bundled every session at once and could reach hundreds of megabytes. Now you can export logs for just the period you need — from the current session to the full archive — and choose how detailed Gramax's logging is. Useful when contacting support. Learn more.

  • Improved change highlighting. Comparing article versions is now more precise: edits are highlighted down to a single word, not just by line, and deleted images, diagrams, and other embedded elements are visible too. Turn it on in Experimental features, fine-tune it in the new Comparison section. Learn more.

• New OpenAPI component. API specifications are now rendered by Gramax's own component — no more Swagger UI. It has search across operations, clear spec errors, and lets you send API requests right from the article. Learn more.

• Drag files from the system into an article

  . You can now drag a file straight from Explorer or Finder — the drop location is highlighted, images are inserted as images, and other files as attachments with a preview. Available if experimental features are enabled.

• Prefix search. Search now finds a word by its start, even if it's not finished yet — for example, "multi" finds "multilanguage" without waiting for the full word.

• PDF and DOCX search in Open Source. Text inside attached files is now found the same way it already works in GES.

• Interface improvements:

  • New catalog navigation tree. Working with the navigation tree is now more convenient: dragging lands exactly where you want, and creating an article right where you need it takes one click.

    Note

    Top-level sections are now written in regular case instead of all caps.

  • Easier navigation in long tabs. Tabs are no longer capped at five, and while scrolling long content the tab navigation now stays pinned at the top — so switching tabs doesn't require scrolling back up.

  • Vertical format for short videos. Short vertical videos now display in a 9:16 format in the video block instead of being stretched into a horizontal frame.

  • Resizing HTML and video blocks. These blocks now have a width handle on the right, just like images and diagrams — drag it to make the block narrower or wider right in the article.

  • Catalog settings. The Main tab used to have everything at once: catalog name, Git settings, language, and versions. Now there are separate tabs for each, so the setting you need is faster to find.

  • Updated the look of task checkboxes. Checkboxes now look the same in edit and view mode.

• Improvements and stability:

  • Faster publishing when there's nothing to pull. If there are no incoming changes on the server, Gramax now publishes without a full catalog sync — previously a sync ran before every publish.

  • Quicker loading for articles with many images. Images now load as they scroll into view instead of all at once — articles with dozens of images open without a delay.

  • Stopped losing comments on cut. Cutting text that had a comment attached used to silently delete the comment. Now the comment moves together with the text when it's pasted.

  • LFS images in version history. Images stored in LFS now display in version history and comparisons the same way they do in the current version — including older versions of images that were later replaced.

  • Stopped losing files when removing an LFS rule. If LFS was turned off for a file before its content had been downloaded locally, the file stopped opening. Such files are now restored automatically during the transfer.

  • Synced the table of contents for inserted fragments. Headings inside a fragment inserted into an article now show up in the table of contents the same way they do in edit mode — both when viewing and in the published version.

June 2026

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Agent. An AI assistant in chat that helps you work with the catalog: read articles, create, edit, and move them, and search through content. Enable it in experimental features. Read more

• Recovering changes in a protected branch. If the branch you were working in becomes protected, your changes aren't lost: you can roll them back or move them to a new branch — right from edit mode, with no extra steps. Read more

General changes

• Webhook for catalog updates on the documentation portal. Catalogs on the portal now update right after changes in the repository — connect a webhook in your Git repository, and there's no need to wait for the next scheduled update cycle. Read more

• View changes from the article toolbar. Previously you had to open the publish window for this. Now the View changes button is always at hand — Two-panel mode is available in the dropdown menu next to it.

• Interface improvements:

  • Updated icon and emoji insertion. You can now insert emoji into an article — on a separate tab in the same window as icons. Icons are easier to find and add: with search, category sections, and a recently used list. Colors can be selected right in the window — using the same palette as for text highlighting. Read more

  • Updated catalog design. The catalog logo now supports not only uploading a custom file, but also selecting an emoji or icon in any color. The catalog card now has a preview — so you can see exactly how it will look. Read more

  • Improved the delete confirmation dialog for articles and sections. It now shows the name of the object being deleted and is also available in the web app.

• Extended typographic replacements in the editor. In addition to dashes and quotes, the editor now recognizes arrows, mathematical and currency symbols, superscript characters, and Greek letters — right as you type: → ↔ ⇒ ≤ ≥ ∞ √ € ₽ ¹ ² α β γ π. Read more.

• Faster tables with many cells. Working with large tables is now 6–7 times faster.

• Article description. Article settings now have a Description field — used as the SEO description meta tag when published: search engines (Google, Yandex) display it below the article link in their results.

• LFS and the documentation's .gitattributes. If the documentation is located in a subdirectory of the repository, Gramax LFS settings now overwrite only its .gitattributes. Read more

May 2026

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Sign in directly on the article page. In a documentation portal with GES configured, visiting a private article without being logged in now shows a sign-in dialog on the spot — no need to go to the home page first. After signing in, the user is taken directly to the original article.

• Updated space settings interface. In the GES space settings dialog, the sidebar can now be collapsed using a button in the content header — giving more room to the content area.

General changes

• Comment review mode. Viewing and analyzing comments is now more convenient: the right panel shows a list of comments for the current article or the entire catalog. You can quickly jump between comments using arrows, search by content, filter by date and author, and sort or group the list. Read more.

• Catalog change history. The Revision preview window has grown into a full-fledged change history: now you can browse all changes in the catalog, filter by author and date, open the catalog at any point in time, and compare any two versions. Read more.

• Publish window improvements. The Edit Markdown button has been removed from the article menu — you can now switch to Markdown editing mode via the Source text button in the bottom toolbar. The two-panel mode toggle has been moved there as well and becomes active when articles are selected in the publish window. Both buttons are now always at hand when reviewing and comparing changes.

• Diagram resizing. Mermaid, Drawio, and PlantUML diagrams now support resizing with a drag handle — the same way images work. If needed, diagrams can be stretched beyond the article width.

• Shareable catalog view link. When a view is active, you can share the link with readers — they will open the catalog on the portal with the view already applied.

• Approver search in merge requests. The Approvers field in the create request dialog now has a name search — quickly select multiple users from the list without typing emails manually.

• Template selection in PDF export. A Custom template checkbox has been added to the export dialog — enable it to select a template for the document layout.

• Updated note styles. Info and Tip used to look the same — both blue and easy to confuse. Now Tip is green — the note type is clear at a glance.

• Keyboard navigation in articles. Previously, you had to click on the article before arrow keys would start scrolling. Now scrolling with arrow keys works immediately when the article opens.

• Updated confirmation windows. Unified the design of the close comment and revert changes windows in the publish dialog.

April 2026

Breaking change

• Catalog views. The catalog filter has been replaced with views — the feature has left experimental mode. Now, along with article filtering, you can set variables: one article can display different content without creating copies.

  No automatic migration

  If a filter was configured in the catalog, add it again through the views panel.

Gramax Enterprise Server

• LFS configuration at the space level. In a GES space, LFS patterns are now set once in the space settings and applied to all repositories. In regular spaces, LFS settings are still configured separately for each catalog.

• Metrics filtering by catalog. Filters have been added to the metrics pages in the space settings. In the views report, you can filter data by catalog, users, and user type, and in the search report — by catalog.

• Style guide check improvements:

  • New configuration interface. Rules are now displayed as a table, and the editor opens in a side panel.

  • Default rules. When the style guide module is launched for the first time, a ready-made set of rules is automatically loaded and can be adapted to your team's requirements.

  • Rule export. Style guide rules can now be exported to share with colleagues or save a backup copy.

  • Run rule tests. The test run button is now available for each rule.

General changes

• Tab properties. Catalog properties can now be assigned to tabs — this lets you control their visibility in different catalog views. The tab appearance has also been updated.

• Table sorting and filtering. Tables now support sorting by multiple columns and filtering by values. The selected parameters are saved with the article and applied when it is next opened, which is useful for large tables.

• Fragments instead of snippets, and links with preview. Snippets have been renamed to fragments — the old name didn't reflect the nature of the element. A fragment is a reusable content block: it's inserted into articles and, when edited, updates everywhere at once.

  You can now also add links to fragments directly from text: hovering displays a preview — useful for glossaries.

• Hide preview when translating. An Article preview toggle has been added to the multilingual catalog editor: when turned off, the preview in the main language is hidden so you can focus solely on the translation.

• Versioning in the editor. Previously, you couldn't switch between versions in the editor — only configure them. Now, when versioning is configured, a version switcher appears in the editor.

• Local cache management. The catalog settings now show the size of the local Git and LFS cache on the Memory tab. If needed, it can be cleared manually — this helps if the catalog has grown noticeably or synchronisation has slowed down.

• OpenAPI navigation. The right panel now also provides navigation by API methods for OpenAPI specifications — you can quickly jump to the desired method without scrolling through the entire page.

• Search improvements:

  • Folder search on the home page. On the reader portal, searching within a folder is now limited to that folder by default. If needed, switch to All catalogs.

  • Full article path considered. The search now takes the full navigation path into account. For example, the article Deposits / On demand can be found by searching On demand deposit.

  • Grouping results from diagrams. Search results from the same diagram are now grouped into a single result block for easier viewing.

  • Filter by empty properties. In the property search filter, you can now filter articles with no assigned value — an (empty) option has been added. The (select all) option quickly resets the filter.

• Improvements and stabilisation:

  • Faster drag and drop. Dragging articles and sections in the left panel is now 10 times faster.

  • Offline mode during synchronisation. If the Git server is unavailable, the application switches to offline mode and periodically checks the connection in the background. As soon as the server becomes available, it automatically returns to normal mode.

  • Editor toolbar updated. Elements are grouped by category, and dropdown menus now open on click instead of hover — the list doesn't close when moving the mouse, which is more convenient when working with fragments and icons.

  • Text highlighting in dark theme. highlight colours have been adapted for dark theme.

March 2026

Gramax Enterprise Server

• New login button in the application. We've simplified the login process in the application. Now the login button is located on the home page in the top‑right corner. When you click it, a window opens where you can enter the GES server URL and log in.

• Notifications. Notifications about changes in articles have been introduced. After changes are published, users see them on the documentation portal home page for reading: in the news feed and in a pop‑up notification in the bottom‑right corner.

• Style guide checks using LLM. We've improved the style guide check settings: now the checks are moved to the interface and added to the space settings, in the Modules → Style Guide tab.

• Export templates in DOCX and PDF. We've removed the limit on the number of Word and PDF templates in the space settings and updated the template upload interface. Now it's more compact and user‑friendly.

General changes

• Search improvements:

  • Section search. The search now offers the following scope options: In all catalogs, In this catalog and In this article, which helps you select the search scope faster.

    To make searching within a specific article more convenient, we've added the Search in this section or Search in this article option to the section or article menu. When selected, it opens a search window with the article already pre‑selected.

  • Diagram search. The search now takes into account text inside Diagrams.net, Mermaid and PlantUML diagrams.

  • Table search. Now the AI search better understands table structures and provides answers based on tables.

• Article preview size adjustment. You can now manually resize the article preview window by dragging its corners. This lets you customise the article view window size.

• Unsupported file formats in preview. Previously, only images and diagrams could be opened in the preview window. Now, for other file types, there's an Open in supported app button — clicking it opens the file in an external application.

• PPTX file previews. PPTX files can now be previewed: when you click on one, a preview appears in a modal window.

• Comment caching. We've sped up catalog opening and navigation between articles by 2 times.

• Image compression

  . Now images are automatically compressed when inserted, with minimal loss of quality, so the catalog takes up less space and runs faster. You can enable this feature in the experimental functions.

February 2026

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Correct links from the application. Previously, links to an article or catalog were copied as app.gram.ax/.... Now the application inserts the domain of your company (where the web editor is deployed), so the links go directly to the corporate website.

• Filter by attached files. Search modes Without files, With files, and Only in files have been added to the search, enabling you to search not only by the text of articles but also by the content of PDF and DOCX files.

General changes

• Automatic resolution of conflicts in comments. If several users simultaneously reply to or edit the same comment, the changes are correctly merged and do not break the comments. As a result, a new item Comments has been added to Check for error» — it shows articles with comments that are not linked to any block.

• Search improvements:

  • Faster search. The search speed has been increased approximately 2‑fold, and indexing has been optimized.

  • Required words in a query. The + operator has been added: place it before a word or phrase, and they will definitely be taken into account in the results.

  • The article search box now retains its state. When navigating between articles, the search box closes, but when reopened, it retains the entered text (as long as the application is open).

  • AI search has become more accurate. We have improved the RAG, so search results are now more relevant and useful.

• Inline toolbar in comments, snippets, and templates. Basic formatting options — bold, italic, code, and link insertion — are now available above the comment input field.

  In the snippets editor and templates, a full set of tools has been added, including table editing.

• Preview for Excel files. Files with .xlsx and .xls extensions can now be opened in preview mode: clicking on them displays a preview in a modal window.

• Faster publishing. The list of changes now loads 3 times faster.

• Automatic link updates during editing. If you change the link text and it matches the link address, the address will also be updated. If the text and address differ, the link remains unchanged. See the article for more details.

• Scroll position is preserved between articles. If you navigate to another article and then return, the article will open at the point where you left off, not at the beginning.

• Application version is now displayed in error details. This helps to quickly identify which version the issue occurred on and reproduce it faster.

• Vulnerability fixes. Before releasing new versions, we now automatically check the libraries used for known vulnerabilities.

January 2026

Breaking change

• Catalog filtering by property value. Previously, the filter could be assembled from several properties of the Flag type, allowing articles to be selected based on the presence of these properties. Now, a single property is selected in the settings, and the catalog is filtered by its value. The Flag type is still supported and is suitable for the simple «show/hide» scenario. If you need to select options, use a property of the One from the list or Several from the list type.

  Warning! There is no automatic migration.

  Properties of the Flag type that were used in the filter will not be merged into a single property of the One from the list or Several from the list type. To switch to the new scheme, create a new property, add all the required values to it, and assign them to the articles and paragraphs.

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Service consolidation. We have merged the git-proxy, enterprise, and sso services into a single image, and drawio, plantUML, and diagram-renderer into another one. As a result, deployment has become simpler: now it requires 2 containers instead of 6. To update, please contact us — we will help you quickly reconfigure your environment.

• Search queries report. A new Search Queries report has been added to the administration panel under the Metrics section. The report includes a graph, summary metrics in cards, and tables showing query statistics and a list of articles with search-driven visits. Data can be filtered by date and user, and you can select a specific time period.

General changes

• Lazy loading of LFS objects. We have improved LFS functionality by adding lazy loading for LFS objects — now they are downloaded only when needed.

• File previews. The reader portal now supports previews of PDF and DOCX files with a simple click. Readers no longer need to download a file to their computer — they can view it directly in the browser.

• Advanced mode. The publication window now allows you to hide detailed information about added/removed lines and article resources using the Advanced Mode button. This simplifies viewing and speeds up the review process before publication.

• Migration from the old PDF export to the new one. We previously released a new PDF export feature, which was considered experimental for several months. Now it is fully integrated and no longer requires manual activation — the new PDF export is available as part of Gramax's core functionality.

December 2025

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Metrics module. Metrics for page views, visits, and visitors have been added to the documentation portal. In the Administration panel, the data is available as a chart. You can filter by date and users, and select a period (day, week, month). The module is enabled via Space → Modules.

• Unsaved changes warning. When switching between tabs in the Administration panel, a warning about unsaved changes now appears to prevent loss of edits.

• CSS styles editor. On the space tab, in the CSS styles section, an Edit button has been added. Styles open in a modal window with the Monaco editor, where they can be modified and saved.

• Rename user groups. You can now rename user groups on the User groups tab.

General changes

• Properties on the documentation portal. Previously, properties were displayed only in the application. Now you can configure their display on the Documentation portal. Readers will see them in the article and can use them to filter results in the search bar.

• Links between catalogs. Support for adding relative links to articles in other catalogs has been implemented.

• Git LFS support. Support for working with large binary files (images, archives, PDFs, etc.) via the Git LFS specification has been added.

• Article and catalog menus. Buttons in the article and catalog dropdown menus have been grouped for easier navigation.

• Comment closure warning. If you start typing a comment and then click outside the comment area, a warning will appear stating that the comment will not be saved.

• UI refresh. We continue to update the Gramax interface. This time, we have improved the following components:

  • The editing panel has been unified in appearance.

  • The comments window has been updated.

  • In storage connection and source import, tabs have been replaced with a dropdown list.

• Delete a merge request. You can now close a merge request in the Gramax UI — it will be deleted for all users after changes are published.

• Comment history. It is now easier to track comment updates in the changes view: an icon appears on the left to indicate that comments have been added or modified. You can also click on a comment there, open it, and edit it.

November 2025

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Access management for catalog owners. Inside a catalog, you can now grant editing permissions to colleagues without going to the administration panel.

• Search in attachments. The search now covers not only article content but also the content of PDF and DOCX files.

General changes

• GitVerse integration. You can now use GitVerse as a repository backend.

• Search improvements:

  • New ranking. Higher weight is given to results where the search term appears in the article title or in one of the headers.

  • Jump to the search phrase. After clicking a search result, the article opens at the fragment containing the search query.

  • Search results tuning. You can specify search queries for an article: if a user enters one of them in the search, the article will appear higher in the results.

  • Search by properties in the application. If properties are set on articles, you can filter search results by them in the search bar.

  • Improved results appearance. The results now indicate the catalog containing the match and display the header hierarchy for the article.

• Pinned table header row. If a table has a header row or header column, it remains visible while scrolling.

• Updated catalog settings UI. Settings are now grouped by topics for easier management.

• Export improvements. We have enhanced the DOCX and PDF export settings. For example, you can now explicitly specify whether each header should start on a new page.

• Move articles between catalogs. You can move an article or a section to any other catalog loaded in the current space within the application.

• Move catalogs between spaces. You can move a catalog to any other space created in the application.

• New home page in the application. We have improved the visual design and added clearer hints.

October 2025

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Knowledge testing. We have implemented a reader knowledge assessment module: you can now add a test with various question types to an article. After completion, user statistics will be displayed in the administration panel. To enable this feature in Gramax Enterprise Server, please contact us.

• Administration panel in the application. The administration panel now appears overlaying the main application page rather than in a separate tab.

• New catalog access settings interface. All users with catalog access are now displayed as a single list showing their roles. Separate tabs are available for group‑based access settings and external reader configuration.

• Read access for all company employees. You can now assign the Authenticated group as readers for a catalog — all users who log in to the portal with their account will be able to view this catalog.

• Settings update parameter configuration. By default, editors receive any changes made in the administration panel every 10 minutes. This parameter can be adjusted — for example, you can set synchronization to occur every 3 minutes.

• Desktop version synchronization with the documentation portal. To ensure editors and readers have the same set of Gramax features, we have synchronized versions across the application, documentation portal, and Gramax Enterprise Server.

General changes

• PDF export templates. You can now configure CSS styles for PDF export. These styles are applied when exporting via the Gramax interface and in CI/CD. Available when experimental features are enabled.

• Copying text with comments. When you copy text that includes comments, the comments will also be transferred when pasting into another article.

• Performance improvements and stabilization. We have significantly accelerated the left panel in the catalog: articles now open, create, and move faster.

September 2025

Gramax Enterprise Server

• Deployment via Helm. We have added a new method for deploying Gramax Enterprise Server.

• Preservation of loaded catalogs on login/logout. Previously, all catalogs except the base ones were removed when exiting the browser version of the application. Now, each editor's loaded catalogs are preserved.

• Login/logout in the administration panel. We have added an authentication form so you can keep the administration panel as a browser tab.

• Stability during concurrent space owner activity. Concurrent changes made by different space owners are now handled more reliably, reducing the likelihood of conflicts and lost settings.

• Direct links to tabs. You can now save and share links to specific tabs in the administration panel.

General changes

• File preview. Now, when you click on an uploaded file in an article, a preview window opens. DOCX and PDF files are displayed; other formats are downloaded.

• Gitea support. We have expanded the list of supported Git repositories: you can now easily connect to Gitea and use all the application's features. See the article for more details.

• PDF export settings. Before exporting, you can customize the document's appearance: add a title page, table of contents, and header numbers. We have also improved the export process so that the final document matches the article in the interface. Available when experimental features are enabled.

• New features for static sites. The latest version of Gramax CLI supports: deployment to a subdirectory, a custom 404 page, style customization, indexing, metrics collection, logo configuration.

• Home page changes:

  • Number of catalog changes. Tiles now show how many changes are stored locally and how many are available for synchronization.

  • Catalog deletion. You no longer need to open a catalog to delete it — you can do this directly from the home page.

• Improvements and stabilization:

  • New menu design. We continue to update the Gramax interface. This time, we have improved the appearance of all menus, including catalog settings, repository addition, property configuration, and more.

  • Broken catalog recovery. If a catalog becomes corrupted, a window will appear offering to either delete it or reload it.

August 2025

General changes

• Section display on the home page. In the previous version, we improved the home page appearance, but catalogs could only be grouped into folders. The new version introduces the «Sections» grouping mode: the home page now displays the section name and its contents. A section can contain catalogs and other folders.

• Table styles in corporate DOCX templates. We have added table style configuration options.

• Image alignment with text wrapping. You can now configure image alignment and text wrapping.

• Interface language synchronization with documentation language on static sites. If multilingual support is configured for a catalog, readers on the static site will switch the Gramax interface language when they change the documentation language.

• Experimental features for the documentation portal. You can now enable Gramax experimental features on the portal. See the article for more details.

• Improvements and stabilization:

  • New PDF export. We have revised the PDF export logic. While no new features have been added yet, this mechanism will allow us to introduce pre‑export document customization in the future.

July 2025

General changes

• Static site in the Gramax cloud. Now you can publish your documentation in just a couple of clicks — no server or hosting is required. Simply click «Publish to the cloud» and log in with your email account.

• Content filtering. You can now create articles and paragraphs for different builds within a catalog. On the reading portal, they will be filtered using a toggle switch.

• Browser version on mobile. The Gramax browser version is now fully usable on mobile phones. All actions available on a computer are also supported.

• New home page. We have improved the visual design of the home page. We have also added the ability to create nested groups. Catalog grouping is set at the space level. See the article for more details.

  If you have customized styles for your space, please verify that they display correctly on the new home page.

• AI‑powered speech transcription. If AI features are enabled in your space, editors can now automatically transcribe audio recordings into text.

• Viewing changes after synchronization. After synchronization, a revision comparison window now opens automatically, showing the differences between the new catalog version and the pre‑synchronization version.

• Text highlighting. We have added the ability to highlight text.

• Comment improvements. You can now add comments to multiple paragraphs and to any block (image, diagram, etc.).

• Catalog export to ZIP in the browser. Since browser‑based data is stored in an internal file system with no direct access, editors previously couldn't download it. Now you can export a catalog to ZIP — the entire repository (articles and files) will be downloaded to your computer.

• DOCX export in corporate templates via CI/CD. We have added the ability to export DOCX files using custom templates via Gramax CLI.

• Change viewing modes. Before publishing, you can review changes in various modes: visual comparison, markup, dual‑pane, or single‑pane view. You can also undo changes individually, rather than for the entire article.

• Desktop version update. We have improved the visual design of the update notification banner.

• Experimental features. We have made the experimental features toggle more user‑friendly and intuitive: you can now select which specific features to enable within the application.
