Improvements to Onshape - October 1st, 2021
GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS
SET UI, CONFIGURATIONS, EXPLODE AND OTHER FEATURES WHEN LINK SHARING
You can now link share directly to an assembly and view context. This empowers you to share more effectively and spend less time training new view only users on where and how to access data in Onshape.Link sharing now captures the status of:
Show/hide feature list
Show/hide instance list
Active configuration
Show/hide sheet metal tab
Exploded/collapsed exploded views
BOM tab
Show/hide Featurescript custom table tab
Active display state
DRAWING IMPROVEMENTS
HIDE LINKED PROPERTY PLACEHOLDER AND BACKGROUND ON DRAWINGS
Previously when adding a property callout in a note a “----” placeholder would show that the callout was not pulling data due to an empty property. You can now hide the grey background behind the placeholder or hide the placeholder altogether until the property is filled.
ABILITY TO "FORESHORTEN" DIAMETER DIMENSIONS
When using the diameter dimension tool in reference to a crop or detailed view we have now added the ability to toggle a foreshortened dimension, adding clarity to the dimension of the diameter being referenced.
ABILITY TO ADD/REMOVE COLUMNS TO THE DRAWING REVISION TABLE
We have added the ability to create a custom revision table, editing Onshape's default revision table. You can now add, remove and reorder columns in the revision table. This new option can be found in the Release Management tab. Both revision and BOM templates have an "All uppercase in Drawings" option now.
ENTERPRISE IMPROVEMENTS
REMOVING USERS IN BULK USING A CSV FILE
In this release we have implemented the ability to remove users in bulk from an enterprise account. In addition we have improved the user interface when adding or removing users in bulk.API IMPROVEMENTS
WEBHOOK BASIC AUTHENTICATION AND SIGNATURES
Administrators can now configure webhooks with additional security to ensure all API calls are genuine.LEARNING CENTER

The drawing improvements are great, and can't speak highly enough of the Rev Table improvements rollout, been talking to support about this in only the last few weeks.
Onshape users, never take for granted how lucky you are to get this level of response from your CAD software provider. Put an improvement request into Dassault/Autodesk and measure the experience!
