"Selected Color" in Color Picker in Documents and Presentations.
After selecting a shape the color or state is now displayed in the Color Picker below the color palette. Additionally, the selected color in the palette is highlighted. This also works when multiple shapes of the same color are selected. If shapes of different colors are selected, the Selected Color will display as "none".
This feature works for the following elements: text color, text highlighting, border color, and fill color; it also applies to shapes and markup.
Sustainability
Copy additional files for new year in Sustainability Program
From Sustainability Program, you can now choose to copy or "roll forward" additional files for a new reporting year, such Processes, reference files, or reporting outputs. Previously, you could copy only source files connected to metric values.
To learn more, see this Workiva Support page: Manage and roll forward years in Sustainability Program.
Download metric attachments for specific collection periods
When you download metric attachments from Program overview or a topic or metric in Sustainability Program, you can now choose the collection periods of the values with the supporting attachments to include in the ZIP file.
From Program overview, Program Owners can also now choose — from Program settings — whether to append a timestamp to the file names of supporting attachments, for context of when the file was uploaded to its metric value. For added clarity, this timestamp appears when viewing attachments in the downloaded ZIP file, metrics, or Query results.
To learn more, see this Workiva Support page: Manage attachments for metrics in Sustainability Program.
Simplify IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards with Workiva AI
To help summarize and clarify the disclosure requirements of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Sustainability Disclosure Standards from the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), you can use the new ISSB Intelligence knowledge base with Workiva AI.
If your Sustainability Explorer includes the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards, you can also view the source content used by Workiva AI to develop its response.
