LITE users that spawn workflow attachments during a networked task session with MR users will spawn the hologram independent of the workflow. It will not be automatically deleted when changing steps.
For ThinkReality A6 users, in rare cases the application may crash during workflow media capture while simultaneously in a remote expert call. In this case, users should save their progress as a snapshot to get out of the locked state.
Live annotation during an remote expert call with an A6 is not currently possible
Videos captured by the A3 and A6 client devices do not contain audio
Videos captured by a HoloLens 2 during a remote expert workflow cannot be previewed by IOS devices
Workorders that have been assigned to a specific user cannot be submitted by other users
