🖼️ Inventory Improvements

You can now sort the Height, Width, and Depth columns separately in the Inventory, making it faster to organize artworks by their dimensions.

Note: Before sorting, you’ll need to add these columns to your grid. To do so:

• Hover over a column header until the three horizontal lines (hamburger menu) appear.
• Check the boxes for "Height," "Width," and "Depth" to add these columns to the grid.

• In the example below, we’ve sorted the "Height" column from smallest to largest to arrange the artworks by their height.

We’ve addressed the following issues:

• Commas in custom field columns were not exporting properly in CSV files.
• The wrong number of Alt Views was displayed for artworks.
• When unarchiving multiple Alt Views, the count was not updating correctly, causing display problems.
• Captions for Alt Views could not be edited, reordered, or saved.
• Inventory live lists were not loading.
• The Location History filter in Inventory resulted in blank rows and inconsistent grid behavior.
