Icons are important components of your site design and experience. They effectively show the purpose, goal, or needed action in your content. This is why, in ShortPoint SPFx version 8.2.3.8, we have updated the icons library.

With the latest release, you can use the design improvements and new icons in version 6 of the Fontawesome library in ShortPoint. Most notably, the addition of the X icon. It also comes with minor enhancements and fixes. You can get detailed information from our Product Roadmap.

ShortPoint has a lot of Design Elements that allow you to use icons to enhance your design. They can also be used to improve user experience. When you need to add your social media links to your pages, for example, you can use an Icon Design Element. You can use icons on your Tiles navigation menu. They make it easier for your users to see the purpose of the other pages or sites on your intranet. You can also categorize the items on a listing that you want to display using the Icon List. Explore more use cases for icons on your SharePoint site by checking out our Knowledge Base.

ShortPoint has proven many times that we have the culture and environment that allows great talent to thrive. We show this not only through consistent product and service excellence. We also get recognition amongst other technology companies in the region.

An intranet design software, such as ShortPoint, is carefully built by experts. However, a new enhancement here and some improvements there may break other parts of the solution. Quality Assurance Engineers, like Karl Tungol, review the whole product to catch these cases. Let us learn how Karl helps the team achieve product excellence at all times.

Karl is our Middle Software Quality Engineer. He makes sure that ShortPoint works as it should. He checks its basic features, functionalities, and performance against the basic requirements. He also helps ensure a new feature or improvement is made according to specifications. He reviews them to verify that they are implemented correctly and delivered successfully to the end users. "It is challenging when there are big releases. Major changes often equate to lots of bugs. But it is also fun since we have to put on our "think out of the box hat" to catch them all," he says.

The one thing Karl enjoys most is the work-life balance at ShortPoint. He specifically points out the 4-day workweek policy of the company. Because of it, he gets to have more time for himself. He comes back to work fully recharged and inspired to work every time.

Karl enjoys going on a staycation with his extended family. He also goes mountain hiking with his friends. Great conversation, good company, and delicious food make for a wonderful time. It's true for just about anything. When asked what is unique about him, he says "I am very independent and self-sufficient." With this short but sweet mantra, we can say that you are a force to reckon with. Glad we have you at ShortPoint.

More exciting news is planned for June. Stay tuned! And if you have any questions, suggestions, or feedback, please send us a note. We love to hear from you.
