# OMG Release notes - v7.178.0

**Saturday, May 03rd, 2025**

  
Release 178 introduces several significant improvements and new features across the platform, with enhancements in Planning, Approvals, and Notifications. While much of the sprint focused on back-end optimisations and bug fixes, this release also delivers visible UI upgrades and workflow efficiencies that improve day-to-day usability 🚀

##   
**Planning & Gantt Area**

Enhancement

**🗂 New Type Column + Enhanced Color Picker**

-   The **‘Type’** column from Plans and Tasks is now available in the Project-level Gantt view, displaying Projects/Campaigns/Activities and Tasks/Sub-Tasks/Milestones. This allows for multi-select filtering and is configurable/movable via the Layout Manager.
-   The colour picker has been expanded from six to eight columns, improving colour visibility and avoiding layout breaks.

## **Approvals**

Enhancement

**📷 Thumbnail Previews, Batch Enhancements & Grouping Improvements**

-   Thumbnail previews have been added to the assets list view, making it easier to visually identify assets.
-   A new **‘Batch’** column displays the **batch number** for each asset.
-   Bulk approvals are now displayed in a parent-child format rather than individually, improving efficiency.
-   Batch sorting and grouping have been enhanced, and the grouping layouts can be saved via the Layout Manager.

## **Notifications**

Enhancement

🔔 **Cleaner Tray Layout and Smarter Controls**

-   The Notifications tray UI has been refreshed with **improved spacing** for a cleaner view.
-   The Nav Bar does not blur out anymore when the tray is open, timestamps now appear at the top right of each notification and the **Dismiss and Snooze buttons** are **only shown on hover** to reduce clutter and redundancy.
-   Upcoming enhancements will include categorisation, search, and filtering for easier notification management.
