BoardX 0.2.7 Release Notes

Hello everyone,

We're excited to announce that BoardX 0.2.7 has been taggged and released on 2022-11-01 with following 10 features added, 7 improvements and 27 bugs fixes.

Fit To Screen

In this new version, we added a "Fit To Screen" button in the bottom right of the corner. With this feature, you can locate your content quickly while move out of the content area by accident.

Preview Of Pdfs

In the version 0.2.7, we supported preview of pdf files. When you drag and drop pdf files from your local drive, BoardX will render the first page of the pdf file on the board. Preview of Office files (word, excel, ppt etc) will be supported in the near future versions too.

Migrate Storage  from Aliyun to AWS S3

Another notable change inside this version is that we've moved to AWS S3 and use it as our Storage solution. Compared to Aliyun, S3 is  more friendly to American users.

Beside the above features mentioned, there're far more improvements, bug fixes included in this version. Please checkout our full change list below:
