+## Version 2.0.6 [2023-02-26]
+
+### Release Notes
+
+This is a patch release that fixes a few minor bugs and a broken feature.
+
+When opening a document from the Novel Tree or Outline View, the Project Tree would receive focus
+even when it was hidden. This has been corrected and no focus change is made. The Project Tree now
+also receives focus automatically when a new Project Item is created.
+
+The backlinks in the Reference Panel below the Document Viewer were no longer working. They have
+now been fixed. They were broken due to a change in the link format in 2.0.
+
+### Detailed Changelog
+
+**Bugfixes**
+
+* The Reference Panel link would no longer recognise the new, shorter links after the 2.0 project
+  index change. The explicit check has now been made more lenient and will accept any link that is
+  at least 13 characters long (the length of a document handle). Test coverage has been added for
+  handling Reference Panel links. Issue #1378. PR #1379.
+* The `setSelectedItem` method of the project tree class had a `setFocus()` call. It should not do
+  this as global focus is handled by the main GUI class, and doing this explicitly in the
+  `setSelectedItem` method is presumptuous. Issue #1369. PR #1379.
+
+**Usability Fixes**
+
+* When creating new items in the project tree via shortcuts, the project tree receives focus. Since
+  these actions can be accessed when the project tree does not have focus, a user would have to
+  switch focus to be able to open new items. The tree now automatically receives focus when a new
+  item is created. Issue #1376. PR #1379.
