The manual failures tab now contains paging, filtering, and sorting, as well as additional column options and more user-friendly mass operations.

Blackout Analyze supports dtSearch rules

Blackout analyze supports dtSearch rules supported by Image, Spreadsheet, and PDF projects.

Bug Fixes

• Respect filtering for the image QC pane
• Improved messaging around Relativity errors in the document viewer that cause Blackout to fail to load properly.
• Fixed an issue where Blackout Analyze results would not export if results contained documents without extensions.
• Fixed an issue with the Manual Failures tab taking a long time to load with 100s of entries.
• Orphaned markups now appear in the Manual Failure tab.

Known Issues

• There is a known issue in Blackout 4.6 & 4.7 when using character scope redactions in image, PDF, and spreadsheet projects. When the last character of a term is followed by a punctuation mark (e.g. at the end of a sentence), the last character of the matched text will not be redacted.
