6.12.0 Bixby Developer Studio Release Notes

Updated: Jun 11, 2019

Welcome to v6.12.0, the 19K release of the Bixby Developer Studio. In this release, we've fixed a number of bugs, added the ability for Simulator to display an audio player, and to persist user permissions. We hope you enjoy the release!

6.12.0 Simulator Updates

Audio Playback

We have added playback support to the Simulator. It now handles the Play client function call, which provides a list of tracks to play. It also has other settings that affect playback, such as the "repeat" setting or queuing behavior.

Persist Capsule Permissions

When a permission page appears in the Simulator, clicking the Allow button persists the granted permissions. You won't see the permission page again unless you go to the User tab and revoke the permission by unchecking the corresponding box.

6.11.0 Bixby Developer Studio Release Notes

Updated: May 23, 2019

Welcome to v6.11.0, the 19J release of Bixby Developer Studio. In this release, we've fixed a number of bugs and added the ability to export the current conversation in the Simulator to a story.

6.11.0 Simulator Updates

Export to a Story

IDE-5447

We've added the Export story button to the Simulator underneath the conversation steps, unlocking the ability to export your conversation steps to a story.

When you press the button, you get an Export story prompt that helps you choose the filename and folder for the story.

The file location drop-down presents a few suggested locations based on your capsule's targets.

Once you confirm the name and location, Bixby Studio saves the conversation steps to the appropriate resource folder, runs the story, and displays the thumbnails.

6.9.0 Bixby Developer Studio Release Notes

Updated: May 6, 2019

Welcome to v6.9.0, the 19H release of the Bixby Developer Studio. In this release, we've fixed a number of bugs and added some new features to the Simulator. We hope you enjoy the release!

Simulator Conversation Steps

Previously, the only visual cue about conversation depth was the Simulator back button ()). Now, you can visualize the conversation depth by toggling the "Show Steps" action on the right pane of the Simulator.

When shown, the Steps pane displays a card for each request within the active conversation. Each card in the pane displays a textual synopsis of the request. Cards are added to the bottom of the list as new requests are made within the conversation.

Conversation Steps are part of an ongoing effort to move story authoring to the simulator. Stay tuned to our future release notes for more updates!

Non-Temporary Dialog Events Now Accumulate

If your capsule presents to users a non-temporary dialog message, those messages now accumulate, even when there is a temporary message that appears.

For example, take the following sequences of messages:

1. Non-temporary dialog message: "This tour is unavailable. Please choose a different one."
2. Temporary: "Looking for tours..."
