# novelWriter Changelog
## Version 2.0.5 [2023-02-12]
### Release Notes
This is a patch release that fixes a number of minor bugs and usability issues. The Project Details
dialog now properly updates when another project is opened, and the "Total editing time" value has
a less ambiguous time format. The editor no longer inserts blank lines if block formats are applied
to an empty line. The optional last column in the Novel Tree will now show all items of the
selected type, not only the first, and the column size can be adjusted from the same menu where the
column content is selected.
### Detailed Changelog
**Bugfixes**
* Fixed an issue where the Title, Project Name and Author values of the Project Dialog would not
refresh when a project was closed and another opened. The issue is with the Qt library and
caching of the dialog, but novelWriter forces a refresh of the labels. These three were
previously missing though. Issue #1336. PR #1339.
* Add a check to the data storage class that a path exists before it is returned to other classes
that uses them for file I/O. Issue #1317. PR #1342.
**Usability Fixes**
* The "Total editing time" label on the Project Details dialog now uses the same time format as the
status bar. That is, HH:MM:SS for times less than 24 hours, and D-HH:MM:SS for times from 24
hours and above. Issue #1335. PR #1339.
* Fixed an issue where applying block formatting to an empty line would insert a blank line before
it. This is a consequence of the change from #1175. The line break is now only added if the line
is _not_ blank. Issues #1349 and #1350. PR #1354.
* The optional third column in the Novel Tree now shows all references for the selected category
instead of just the first one. The maximum width of the column can also be selected from the
Novel Tree config menu. Issue #1351. PR #1355.
**Packaging**
* Added App Bundle and DMG packages for MacOS. Contributed by @Ryex. PRs #1276 and #1340.
