# novelWriter Changelog
## Version 1.6 [2022-02-20]
### Release Notes
This release does not introduce any major new features, but is instead a collection of minor
improvements and tweaks based on user requests. There are also a number of changes under the hood
to improve the structure and performance of novelWriter.
Some key improvements to the user interface are:
* The max text width setting in Preferences now also applies to the document viewer, and the
setting itself on the Preference dialog has been simplified a bit.
* When text is selected in the document editor, the number of words selected is displayed in the
editor's footer area.
* The search tool in the document editor now shows the number of results in the document.
* The Enter and Ctrl+O keyboard shortcuts should now work the same way in all tree views.
* It is now possible to set a blank section title format on the Build Novel Project tool and get
empty paragraphs in the output. Previously, a blank format would just remove the section break
entirely. This change allows the user to define hard and soft scene breaks using level three and
four headings. The scene and section titles can be hidden completely with two new switches added
to the user interface.
Other feature changes include:
* The project index is now automatically rebuilt in the event it is empty or incomplete when the
project is opened.
* The user can now add their own syntax and GUI theme files in the app folder in their user area on
the host operating system. Where the custom files must be added is described in the
documentation.
* A Windows installer is yet again provided for novelWriter. If you have novelWriter installed
using another method, make sure you uninstall it properly first as the two methods are not
compatible.
* Release versions for Ubuntu 21.04 have been dropped, and added for the upcoming Ubuntu 22.04.
* Most translations have been updated. A Dutch translation is in the works.
In addition to these changes, the documentation has been completely restructured and a new theme
added. The theme has a light and a dark mode.
_These Release Notes also include the changes from 1.6 Beta 1 and RC 1._
### Detailed Changelog
**User Interface**
* The default OS font is not always suitable for editing documents. The default editor font is now
Arial on Windows and Courier on macOS; if those fonts are available on the platform. Issue #988.
PR #990.
* Added some some random error messages from Discworld to the error dialog shown when novelWriter
crashes. They are visible on the dialog title bar if the title bar is visible on the platform.
This is just a fun addition made to note the #1000 addition to novelWriter. PR #1000.

upcoming Ubuntu 22.04. PR #987.
