We are happy to announce the release of Adobe Bridge Beta (13.0.4)
We have been tracking the issues reported on the latest release version of Bridge and have been working on fixing those issues.
With this Beta release, we're fixing many top customer-reported issues in the area of File Operations, Workspaces, Folder & Filter Panels, File Info Dialogue, Metadata, Collection, Scripts, Preview, and a few more.
