Infodash Release 5.15: Enhanced User Experience and Design Improvements

Infodash Carousel​

Layout(s): Call to Action Split Left/Right​

One of the first things you’ll notice in the Infodash Carousel Call to Action Split Left and Split Right layout update is a cleaner overall presentation.​ We’ve refined the spacing, updated the navigation arrows, introduced rounded corners, and improved the way SharePoint theme colors are applied.​

These changes help featured content stand out while creating a more modern experience that’s consistent with the rest of the platform.​ Although the look has been refreshed, the functionality remains the same, so existing users will feel right at home.​

Infodash Featured News (Hero) ​

Layout: Featured Carousel Block​

Because Featured News is often one of the first things users see on a homepage, we wanted to make it cleaner and easier to read.​ You’ll notice improved typography, updated spacing, rounded corners, and subtle shadows that give the layout a little more depth without distracting from the content.​ These refinements help important announcements stand out while maintaining a clean, professional appearance.

Infodash Cards​

Layout: Announcement​

The Announcement layout within Infodash Cards has also received a refresh.​ Cards now feature cleaner spacing, refined typography, rounded corners, and subtle shadows that make each announcement easier to distinguish.​

We’ve also improved the responsive behavior of the layout so it makes better use of available space across different page configurations.​ The overall result is a cleaner presentation that’s easier for users to scan.​

​Infodash Quick Links ​

Layout: Compact Grid​

The Infodash Quick Links web part offers several layouts for different navigation scenarios. In Release 5.15, we’ve refreshed two of those layouts: Compact Grid and Stacked.​

The Compact Grid layout introduces improved spacing, rounded corners, subtle borders, stronger SharePoint theme integration, and improved responsiveness that helps the layout adapt more naturally to different page widths.​

Infodash Quick Links ​

Layout: Stacked​

The Stacked layout in Infodash Quick Links has also been refreshed with cleaner spacing, updated dividers, refined navigation arrows, and a more modern overall appearance.

Together these updates create a cleaner, more consistent navigation experience while preserving the flexibility customers already expect from Quick Links.​

Infodash Apps/Resources​

Layout: Tiles (Default)​

​Application tiles now feature rounded corners, subtle borders, and improved spacing that create a cleaner, more organized presentation.​
​
We’ve also updated the edit control from a gear icon to a pencil icon, providing a clearer indication that the control is used to edit the web part.​
​
While these are small refinements individually, together they make the experience feel more intuitive and visually consistent with the rest of the platform.​

Infodash Events​

Layout: Compact List​

​Release 5.15 includes updates to three layouts within the Infodash Events web part. The Compact List layout features refreshed typography, updated styling, rounded corners, and theme-aware date badges that improve readability while maintaining its familiar compact presentation.​

Infodash Events​

Layout: Vertical Card #1​

The Infodash Events Vertical Card #1 layout has received a more noticeable visual refresh with updated date badges, refined typography, rounded corners, refreshed action icons, subtle shadows, and a simplified date format that makes upcoming events easier to scan.

Together these enhancements provide a cleaner, more engaging way to present upcoming events while remaining consistent with the overall design language introduced in this release.​

Infodash Events​

Layout: Film-Strip​

As with the Vertical Cards #1 layout update, the Film-Strip layout has been refreshed to create a cleaner and more consistent experience. ​

​You’ll notice the introduction of updated date badges, refined typography, rounded corners, refreshed action icons, subtle shadows, and a simplified date format, along with updated navigation arrows that align with the refreshed styling used throughout the platform.​

​These visual enhancements create a more polished presentation while preserving the familiar horizontal scrolling experience your users already know.​

​The functionality remains the same, but the updated styling helps the Film-Strip layout feel more cohesive with the other refreshed Events layouts.​
