STN Viewer performance improved


01 August 2008

STN Viewer performance has been improved. Documents now load much faster to the Patent Queue and overall responsiveness is improved, particularly when you sort and filter documents in the Patent Queue and Projects. 

Several changes have also been made to the STN Viewer interface: 

  • Documents now display 25 at a time in the Patent Queue and Projects. 
  • A more informative progress indicator is now available during document import to the Patent Queue. 
  • A cost notification now appears before you incur project sharing costs. 
  • In addition to the title, patent country, kind code, and source database, the publication year is now provided for all documents in the Patent Queue and Projects as an additional way for you to determine relevance. In documents that you have displayed, the numeric portion of the patent number is also provided.  

In addition, STN on the Web has been enhanced with a new STN Viewer Assistant that allows you to send full-text patent documents from STN on the Web answer sets to STN Viewer.
