This hotfix for HomeGauge Desktop 5.6.3 fixes a Summary view issue that could lead to edits on the wrong item, restores photos in the HMA print format, and strengthens how account credentials are handled. We recommend all 5.6.3 users update.
Bug fixes
Summary view now shows the right comments and photos. When you moved between Summary items, by clicking or with the arrow keys, the Comment and Photo panes kept showing the first item you selected. They now update to match the highlighted item, so your edits land where you expect.
Inspection item photos are back in the HMA print format. Reports previewed or published with the HMA print format were missing inspection item photos, even with Include Pictures in Report turned on. Photos now appear as they should.
Security Improvements
Restore Other HG User Settings now uses secure sign-in. You’ll still enter the other user’s ID and password, but HomeGauge now verifies them with our modern, token-based sign-in instead of sending them to the server the old way. Nothing changes in how you use the feature.
