Toon Boom Harmony 21.1.2 Release Notes

Harmony 21.1.2, build 23173 (2024-09-18)

IMPORTANT If your studio uses a license server, you will need to upgrade your license server to Harmony 21.1 or Storyboard Pro 20.1.

Even though licenses from Harmony 21 can be used to run Harmony 21.1, the server running the license server needs to be upgraded to Harmony 21.1 to support client workstations running Harmony 21.1. Licenses from servers using earlier versions of Harmony cannot be used to run Harmony 21.1.
