Malfors v1.4 Released

Role-based access control, link colors and routing styles, auto-layout improvements, faster app load times, and more.

Malfors v1.4 release highlights: role-based access control, link colors and routing styles, auto-layout improvements, and faster app load times.

Role-Based Access Control

Professional and Enterprise customers can now assign different roles to organization members:

You now can customize the appearance of links on your graphs with new color options. You can use different link colors to represent confidence, type of connection, or any other idea you find useful.

You can also now switch between bezier, straight, and step link styles. For that, right-click on the graph pane, select "Link style", and pick the style you prefer.

Auto-Layout

You can now choose to apply graph layout automatically on change. As soon as entities or links are added or removed, the graph will be rearranged using your preferred algorithm.

Faster App Load

At Malfors, we strive for better performance. Malfors v1.4 loads 2.5x faster (1s → 400ms). We achieved this by eliminating cross-origin requests, combining bootstrap requests, and implementing a better caching strategy.
