Baseline label decorations now show an asterisk (*) based on the component's hierarchy
When a component diverges from its current baseline, an asterisk (*) is displayed as baseline label decoration. If a component is the root of a component hierarchy, then the asterisk is shown if the hierarchy diverges from the component's current hierarchical baseline. The baseline label for a hierarchical component displays an asterisk if:

Component filters added in Source Control Management (SCM) editors and wizards
To support customers with a large number of components, component name filters are introduced to the workspace, stream, and snapshot editors in the Eclipse and web clients. In addition, in the Eclipse client, a component name filter is added to the Add Component wizard when you add a component from another workspace or stream. Previously, the name filter was only available when you added a component from a baseline. This filter is already present in the wizard for the web client. In all cases, the component name filters are case-insensitive and can accept the standard wildcard characters, asterisk (*) and question mark (?). Use asterisk (*) to match zero or more characters. Use question mark (?) to match any single character at the present position. Image of workspace editor in the web client: ![]() Image of Add component wizard in the Eclipse client: ![]() |

Support for filtering files by project area in Report Builder
In Report Builder, you can now filter reports that include files by project area. Most file-based reports use Lifecycle Query Engine scoped by a configuration data source that filters the files in the report based on the chosen configuration. Filtering by project area is optional. Previously, filtering any project area produced an empty report, whereas now the report contents are filtered properly by both the chosen configuration and the project areas. |

Set role-based permissions to restrict download of work items from queries and plans
In the Project Area Permissions page, you can set role-based permissions to restrict download of work items from queries and plans. However, in Engineering Workflow Management (EWM) Eclipse and Microsoft Visual Studio clients with versions earlier than 7.0.3, the lack of export permission is ignored. You can export query results even if you do not have permission.

Visual Studio, Shell and MSSCCI clients |
Ability to open web-based UI in Visual Studio, Shell, and MSSCCI clients by using the Microsoft Edge Chromium runtime
All web-based UI in the Visual Studio, Shell, and MSSCCI clients now use the Microsoft Edge Chromium rendering engine in place of the unsupported Internet Explorer. This includes the internal web browser, Feeds, History Graph, Operation History, OSLC pickers, hovers, and work item and query editors. You can install the most recent Microsoft Edge Chromium Evergreen Runtime from https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/. Microsoft Edge Chromium Evergreen Runtime is now a prerequisite for installing any of these clients.

For example, the "IBM Plex Sans" font replaces "Arial" as the base sans-serif font. The IBM Plex typeface is now common across the following applications:
