Version 2.3
Release Notes
This release introduces a new Welcome dialog that replaces both the previous Open Project dialog and the New Project Wizard. The Welcome dialog has received a friendly custom art design created by Louis Durrant.
The Preferences, Project Settings, Project Details, and About dialogs have received completely new designs and layouts, and the Manuscript Build Settings dialog has been updated to match.
Among new features is a new Templates root folder where the writer can store template documents to be used when creating new project documents and notes. It is now also possible to include Point of View and Focus character names in chapter titles in Manuscripts. A new feature to ignore text has also been added. It behaves similarly to comments, but is never included in a manuscript even if comments in the manuscript are enabled.
See the website for complete Release Notes.
Detailed Changelog
Bugfixes
- Fix an issue where the Tags and References panel below the document viewer was not cleared if a project was opened, closed, and a new project with no tags defined were opened again. PR #1720. Issue #1718.
- Fixed an issue where multi-selecting documents in Trash would give the option to again move items to Trash. The menu now properly offers the option to permanently delete the documents. PR #1728.
- Fixed an issue where multi-select for deletion would only process the item right-clicked, and not all the selected items. PR #1728.
- Changed the error message that pops up when trying to open a project from the Welcome dialog that no longer exists. The error message should no indicate that the project was not found, as opposed to unreadable. PR #1740. Issue #1737.
Improvements
- The build tool no longer inserts a scene separator immediately after a partition heading, and should now behave the same way as for chapters. If there is text before the first scene break, the text flows continuously without a separator. PR #1716. Issue #1704.
- Added one new GUI theme named "Cyberpunk Night" by @alemvigh. Also added a matching "Cyberpunk Night" document editor theme by @alemvigh, and a new Tango theme by @vkbo. PR #1738. Issue #1730.
- When the Welcome dialog fails to open a project, and there is not already a project open in the app, the Welcome dialog appears again. PR #1740. Issue #1737.
