The folder picker is now easier to navigate, supports deeper search drill-down, and lets you create folders in the right place.

---

What’s included​

Easier folder navigation​

• You can now drill into folders directly from search results instead of starting over in the main tree
• Search breadcrumbs stay clickable, so it’s easier to move back up when you’ve drilled in
• Search results only show folders you can actually use, so there’s less dead-end clicking

Folder creation in the right place​

• The picker follows the same folder structure used in Foundry: space -> project -> folders
• A space is like a shared drive, and its first-level listings are project resources
• Admins manage projects, so you can browse into them but cannot create new folders at the project level itself
• You can create folders once you’re inside the folders within a project, including after drilling in from search

---

Notes​

• Folder creation is only available once you’ve drilled into a valid folder location inside a project
• If a folder does not appear in search, you may not have permission to use it

Ask questions about Catalyst and get instant, documentation-backed answers — right from the sidebar.

---

What's included​

• Click Assist in the sidebar to open the panel from any page
• Ask a question and receive a focused, markdown-formatted answer grounded in Catalyst documentation
• Source excerpts are shown beneath each reply so you can verify or explore further
• Follow-up questions are supported — prior context is carried forward within the same conversation
• Use the + button to start a new conversation at any time

---

Notes​

• Answers are based solely on Catalyst documentation — the assistant will not speculate or invent features
• AI responses may not always be accurate. When in doubt, refer to the official documentation for authoritative guidance
• If you receive an unexpected or unhelpful response, please share it via Support → Contact Support
• Conversations are limited to 20 messages; start a new one for unrelated topics

Send feedback, bug reports, and feature requests directly from the Support menu.

---

What's included​

Contact Support from anywhere​

• Open Support -> Contact Support from the app sidebar without leaving your current page
• Submit one of three request types: General Feedback, Bug Report, or Feature Request

---

Faster issue triage​

• Add a clear title and detailed description so the team can understand your request faster
• Your submission includes your current page, browser, and account details to reduce back-and-forth

---

Notes​

• The form requires both a title and description before you can submit
• Messages are limited to 1,500 characters
• For bug reports, include steps to reproduce and what you expected to happen

Statistics tables now support column filtering to make it easier to narrow down and analyze values.

---

What’s included​

Column filtering in statistics tables​

• Hover over a column header to click on filter to access the filter menu

• Select a filter operator and provide a value (where applicable)
• Click Apply to add the filter condition

• Applied filters appear as tags below the table header
• Multiple filters can be added to progressively narrow down results
• Individual filters can be removed directly from their tags

• Filtering and sorting can be used together to refine and order the displayed statistics

---

Notes​

• Filters apply to the currently displayed statistics
• Multiple filters are combined to further narrow down results
• Sorting respects the filtered result set
• Filtering and sorting behavior may continue to evolve during the beta phase
• If you notice any unexpected behavior, please share steps to reproduce

Statistics tables now support column sorting to make it easier to compare and analyze values.

---

What’s included​

Column sorting in statistics tables​

• Hover over a column header to reveal the arrow-down icon

• Click the arrow-down icon to choose ascending or descending order

• Once selected, the active sort order is clearly indicated, and a tag appears at the top right

• You can change the sort direction or clear the sort by clicking the column header again, or remove it directly from the tag

---

Notes​

• Sorting currently applies to the displayed statistics only
• Additional enhancements, such as combining sorting with filters, will be added in future iterations
• If you notice any unexpected sorting behavior, please share steps to reproduce

Release notes now automatically pop up the first time a new update is available.

What’s included​

Auto-open when there’s a new release​

• Release notes will open automatically when there’s a newer release than what you last acknowledged
• If you’ve already seen the latest release, it won’t pop up again
• You can still open release notes anytime from Support → Release notes

---

Notes​

• This is an early version and we’ll refine the trigger rules over time
• If you spot incorrect popup behavior (e.g. repeated prompts), please share:
  • steps to reproduce

We’re introducing a new experiment feature, now available to all users. This release is an early step to see how the feature works in practice and what we should improve next.

---

What’s included​

Experiment creation​

• Create experiments through a dedicated experiment workflow
• Experiments serve as the top-level container for:
  • Trial definitions
  • Parameters and bounds
  • Results and visualizations

Experiments overview​

• Centralized view of all experiments
• Clear separation between experiments and other platform entities
• Designed to support iteration and comparison across multiple experiments over time

Trial setup (Design of Experiments)​

• Configure trials within an experiment using a design-of-experiments (DOE) approach
• Define input parameters and value ranges per trial
• Supports structured experimentation workflows rather than ad-hoc runs
• Trial configuration is kept inline to minimize context switching

Visualization​

• Early-stage visualizations for experiment results
• Designed to help validate experiment behavior and outcomes

For more details on how this experiment works and what to expect, see the documentation:

We especially encourage you to try it out using our Hartmann3 tutorial in the docs, which walks through a practical, end‑to‑end example.

---

Notes​

• Access to a new capability that is still under active development
• Improvements may be rolled out iteratively during the experiment
• We’ll use usage data and user feedback to decide on the final scope and direction

We’re moving towards a sidebar-based navigation to improve scalability and deliver a more consistent navigation experience as the platform evolves.

---

What’s included​

Left-hand sidebar​

• Main navigation moved into a left-hand sidebar
• Collapsible sections for better organization

Simplified top bar​

• A simplified top bar, starting with breadcrumbs

Notes​

• This is an incremental update during beta
• Navigation patterns may continue to evolve based on feedback
