New Enhancements Added to Matrix

Agent Branded Headers in Emails (Requires OneHome)

Following the upgrade on September 7, your emails now include a branded header for a more personalized client experience consistent with OneHome. The branded email header displays your same agent photo and name that appears in OneHome. If you have not uploaded a OneHome image, your initials will be displayed instead.

As shown in the following diagram, photo/initials display as a circle in most email applications but display as a square in the Windows desktop version of Outlook.

User Interface Enhancements

This update introduced key enhancements that improve responsiveness in the Global Navigation Bar and Contacts & Settings modules in Matrix. They include:

Global Navigation Bar

·        Bigger navigation menu text. This conforms to current best practices for accessibility, with new separator lines for increased clarity. The primary navigation options are now displayed in all caps by default.

·        “More” menu at right. While this larger menu text makes the content wider, the navigation bar will never exceed the width of the page because any overflow items will appear under a “More” menu on the right.

·        Collapsible, mobile-friendly menu. When viewed on a phone or other small screen, the collapsible, mobile-friendly version of the navigation menu maximizes screen space for working with data. This collapsible menu is available on all responsive pages, as well as some non-responsive pages.

Contacts & Settings

·        New look for the Contacts and Settings modules. This is the latest step in our effort to standardize the entire application on a clean new user interface that provides an optimal experience on desktop computers, mobile phones, and everything in between.

Standardized page elements include a header bar with key functions on the right, a secondary action bar below and additional tools available via panels that slide out from the side… all tailored to suit your device.

·        Increased default text size. In line with best practices for accessibility, we’ve increased the default text size on all responsive pages. Additionally, Contacts list columns that previously used icons to identify their meaning now include text labels.
