## Details

All matching personal spaces have been included in the spaces search filter for
multi-personal accounts.

https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4674
https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/4922

* Bugfix - Crash when returning from external-file receive screen: [#4738](https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4738)

A null guard has been added to `startSyncFolderOperation` in
`ReceiveExternalFilesActivity` to prevent a NullPointerException when
`getCurrentDir()` cannot resolve the current folder.

https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4738
https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/4986

* Bugfix - Hide keyboard and clear error when brute-force countdown ends: [#4874](https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4874)

The number keyboard has been hidden during the brute-force protection countdown
so users cannot interact with it. The wrong-passcode error message has been
cleared once the countdown ends, leaving a clean screen for the next attempt.

https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4874
https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/4967

* Bugfix - Recalculate grid mode after rotation: [#4884](https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4884)

The grid mode column count has been recalculated after device rotation, keeping
file layouts aligned with the new orientation.

https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4884
https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/4935

* Bugfix - Widen snackbars on tablets: [#4921](https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4921)

Snackbar width has been expanded to 80% on tablets with a smallest-width of at
least 600dp, so tablet users see a larger snackbar instead of the narrow
Material default.

https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4921
https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/4985
https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/5007

* Bugfix - Show the full description of space permissions: [#4968](https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4968)

More room has been given to the description of a role in the space member
permissions list, so longer descriptions are no longer cut after the second
line, and any text that still does not fit is ellipsized.

https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4968
https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/4976

* Bugfix - Hide three dot menu on space cards for Kiteworks accounts: [#4991](https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/4991)

The three dot menu shown on space cards has been hidden for Kiteworks accounts,
since spaces are folders in those servers and clicking on Members made the app
crash.

components, and the space members logic has been aligned with the graph shares
implementation.
