Sanity Studio v3.83.0: Improvements to the PTE user experience, better presence in releases, and various bug fixes

✨ Highlights

Interface improvements

The Portable Text Editor (PTE) is now enabled by default. You no longer need to 'click in' or press space to activate it. The PTE still allows keyboard users to scroll and tab through forms without being "captured" by the editor, ensuring seamless navigation for accessibility needs.

The Studio version dialog under the "Help and resources" menu now includes more information about the current version and links to upgrade if needed.

Improves how presence works with Content Releases. Selecting a user's presence avatar in the global presence menu now takes you to the document version and updates your perspective instead of defaulting to draft.

🐛 Notable bugfixes

The useDocumentLocations hook now uses perspectiveStack and should work as expected for teams using the Content Releases feature.

The Portable Text Editor should no longer show reduced performance in long documents after adding comments.

Restored the intended function of the for directUploads configuration parameter of the Form API.

Fixes a bug that stopped presence indicators from displaying in the document list. You can once again see other editors in the document list.

Assorted dependency updates and bug fixes.
