v2.7.2 – DogBase Flexible Logging
Release Date: April 24, 2026
Version 2.7.2 is a foundational update focused on how you log training data. Sliders have been fully replaced with a new direct input system, giving handlers precise, professional-grade control over every value they record. This release also includes widget consolidation, a full data migration, and UI refinements across the logging experience.
✨ What's New in v2.7.2
🎯 Flexible Direct Input System (Replaces Sliders)
The slider-based input model has been fully retired and replaced with a direct input system that lets you enter exact values instead of approximating them. This is a direct response to long-standing user feedback and significantly improves accuracy for precision-based work like detection training.
- Enter exact values instead of dragging imprecise sliders
- Select your preferred unit of measurement for each input
- Achieve fine-grained accuracy without friction
No more fighting the slider to land on the right number — logging is now faster, more reliable, and better suited to professional training standards.
🔄 Widget Consolidation
Several duplicative widgets have been merged into the new direct input system, cleaning up the Type Builder and reducing confusion when configuring training and action types.
- Migrated redundant widgets into the unified direct input model
- Reduced the overall number of widget types to choose from
- Simplified the Type Builder and day-to-day logging experience
🗃️ Full Data Migration
All existing training data has been migrated to the new system with zero loss. This was a significant backend effort to ensure the transition is seamless for teams with years of records.
- Migrated thousands of records across Trainings, Actions, Training Types, Action Types, and Group Events
- All historical data is preserved and adapted to the new input format
- Sets a stronger foundation for future logging enhancements
🎨 Toast Notification Redesign
All in-app toast notifications — success, error, and loading states — have been refreshed with a cleaner, more modern design for better visual clarity during active logging sessions.
- Updated success, error, and loading toasts
- Built on a high-quality component library for consistency
- Improved readability and overall app polish
🧱 Session Blocks UI Update
The Session Blocks widget has been redesigned to make multi-part training sessions easier to navigate and log.
- New tabbed interface reduces excessive scrolling
- Complex session structures are easier to read at a glance
- More efficient workflow when logging layered or multi-phase sessions

This release delivers:
- A new Flexible Direct Input System that replaces sliders with precise value entry
