Interface improvements (Jan 2025)

We’ve rolled out some exciting user interface upgrades and feature enhancements to make your OneDirectory experience even better. Here's what's new:

🔍 Building on our previous search box redesign, the search box now features enhanced styling and is positioned within a static header bar that remains visible throughout your OneDirectory experience. More to come!

📩 Updated the main header area across all pages, allowing more content to be visible in the search results

🎯 Restyled the entity groups in search results to make them stand out and be more easily distinguishable. Additionally, the "See more" links now expand only the current entity group instead of all groups at once.

📑 Page headings have been added to the Everyone, Offices, and Departments pages, as well as to organizational unit homepages

🎴 Enhanced text styles and colors on cards, tiles, and list view items for a consistent and improved app-wide experience

💻 Improved the sizing of cards and tiles in search results to ensure better responsiveness across various screen resolutions

🌍 Redesigned the office address on the Office pages to clearly highlight the region and country, along with the office address

🔗 Profile: Automatically add hyperlinks on fields that looks like they should be clickable URLs

🤖 Enhancements to the service accounts checker

🌟 Highlighting "Skills" in the sidebar if we're on a skill page

💫 Updated the sync so the hireDate field uses the new "employeeHireDate" field in the Microsoft Graph

🐛 Fixed an issue where skills that contained an ampersand ("&") weren't able to be deleted from profiles

🐛 Fixed handling of circular references in the manager hierarchy of any reporting line; rendering of the people pane on profiles was being affected

🐛 Fixed an org chart bug where the root node could initially render behind the search box on smaller screen resolutions

🐛 Fixed a recent bug with the A-to-Z keyboard disappearing in certain instances
