The summer fun keeps rolling on and so do Onshape's improvements!
USABILITY IMPROVEMENTS
RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON CONTEXT MENU ICONS
When right-clicking on something, you'll now see icons in the context menu that appear.
SEARCH RESULT SORTING
When searching for something, you now have the option to filter results by their modified date and their name.
PERFORMANCE PANEL ALERTS
You will now see an alert on the Performance Panel if there are instances where an error occurs because your browser isn't supported, there is a region mismatch, or there are errors with WebGL.
ASSEMBLY IMPROVEMENTS
TANGENT EDGE DISPLAY OPTIONS FOR ASSEMBLIES
When working with assemblies, you can now toggle the tangent edge display between visible, phantom, and hidden for a cleaner look at your model.

If you want to copy and paste instances in an assembly, mates associated with the copied instances will now add an instance counter to differentiate them from one another.
ENTERPRISE IMPROVEMENTS
