# Document preview can be detached into a separate window
Approval now lets you detach the document preview into a separate window for supported document types. When detached, the preview follows task selection and updates automatically while you navigate. You can reattach the preview at any time using the controls in the detached window or sidebar. This gives more space in the main interface and improves document review on larger or multi-window workflows. This functionality applies only to document types with document preview support and does not apply to timesheet document types from Visma.net.
Comments and workflow history visibility improvedapproval/release-notes/2024-09-01-comments-and-workflow-history-visibility-improved/release-note2024-09-01improvementComment and action visibility is now clearer between Workflow History and the Comments section.2024-09-01T00:00:00Z
# Comments and workflow history visibility improved
Comment handling and display logic has been clarified across task details and overview screens. Workflow History now clearly shows actions and comments, while the Comments section shows comment messages only. This change improves traceability and reduces confusion about where to find user actions versus written comments during document processing. Additional changes included: a 500-character limit for comments with warning feedback near the limit, comment ordering where older comments appear first and newer comments appear closest to the input area.

# Task handling user interface redesigned
Approval introduced a new task-focused interface for My tasks, My history, Process overview, and Document overview. The release kept core actions and behavior but changed how modules are presented. Workflow details, comments, document details, document viewer, and accounting grid are displayed in a modular layout with improved navigation and visibility controls. Key aspects included: renamed modules for clearer terminology, hide/show module controls in the sidebar, persisted layout behavior when navigating tasks, improved workflow details display, including step history and approver context.
