# novelWriter Changelog
## Version 1.3.1 [2021-05-06]
### Release Notes
This is a patch release primarily to fix a problem with the Qt translation library used to make
novelWriter available in multiple languages. One of the function calls made to the library was
added recently, in Qt 5.15, which many users on Linux will not have installed on their system. The
issue could be resolved by updating the library, but it's an unnecessary and inconvenient
restriction.
### Detailed Changelog
**Bugfixes**
* The code to load translation files for the main GUI was using a function in the QTranslate class
that was added in version 5.15, which means novelWriter could not start on a lower version of the
Qt library if translation files were present. We don't want to force users to use Qt 5.15, so the
call has been removed. Issue #773. PR #774.
**Other Fixes**
* When generating a new project on Windows, the code that generates the new documents in the
project would create duplicate handles, causing a warning to be printed. The warning is harmless
as the collisions are handled. They are caused by the resolution of the clock available to Python
on Windows being in the tens of millisecond range, much slower than the code generates the new
project files. The solution was to append a counter to the timestamp from the clock, ensuring
that the seed is always unique. Issue #769. PR #776.
