Hey everybody,
my modeler didn’t suggest to update to Version 4.0.0. Is this intended?
I’m still on version 3.7.2 as I coudn’t update to 3.7.3 when it was suggested. So I canceled and wasn’t able to check for updates again as there is no menu item available to check for updates manually.
Any plans to offer this Check for update option?
The Privacy Preferences still allow to check for updates.
Thank you, Ingo
Hey Ingo,
We have a mechanism what we call “Staged Rollouts” in our update checks mechanism. It’s quite similar to updating a new version of your app in Google Play etc. What happens is that, the chances you see a notification about a new version increases as the new version gets older (we released v4.0.0 yesterday). The probability should reach to 100% within 2 weeks though. So expect to see a notification soon.
Also note that the modeler does update checks once per day (24 hours).
If you really need to see the notification, we have a flag called force-update-checks. You can set it to true in order to perform an update check everytime the modeler is restarted. Note that this flag is not documented as we’ve implemented this for debuging purposes.
Another useful tip for update checks is the console logs. You can always have a look at console logs to see what’s going on. Just look for logs with UpdateChecks header:
