File history

An amendment has been made to ScribeManager such that when a file is "unallocated", i.e. is allocated from a typist to no typist, this is recorded in the History.

Auto-claim Emails

A modification has been made to ScribeManager such that when a transcriptionist claims a file via Auto-claim or Mayday, an email is sent to them, and they are requested not to consider that they have definitively claimed the file until they receive that email.

This is to prevent transcriptionists from stating, for whatever reason, that they have claimed a file when in fact they have not.

Auto-claim Files on Jobs List Page

On the Jobs List page, files that are eligible for auto-claim are now shown with green backgrounds even if Mayday files are available.  This means that files may appear to the administrator as eligible for auto-claim but will not be seen on some typists' pages if Mayday files are visible there.

Firefox 4 alteration

Further layout changes have been made to the Job Edit page following the release of the new version of Firefox.  Functionality is not affected.

Auto-claim and Mayday Alteration

Download links on the typist page for Auto-claim and Mayday files are now disabled, and are only enabled after the file is claimed.  This has been implemented to prevent typists from transcribing files that they have not actually claimed.

Firefox 4

An adjustment has been made to ScribeManager's Job Edit page to take account of the new Firefox 4, which was causing some text boxes to appear the wrong size.
