# novelWriter Changelog
## Version 2.6.1 [2025-02-02]
### Release Notes
This is a patch release that fixes an issue with creating new notes from the editor context menu,
adds an option to turn off the confirmation box that pops up when closing novelWriter, and improves
the recent project list on the Welcome dialog.
A French version of the user guide is now also available when the localisation is set to French,
and the French, Latin American Spanish, Norwegian, US English, German and Japanese translations of
the application have been updated.
### Detailed Changelog
**Bugfixes**
* Fixed an issue where the "Create Note from Tag" would also show up for `@story` references. These
should not create new novel documents. The same menu entry was also removed for `@mention`
references, as it is not known what category the would belong to. Issue #2212. PR #2215.
**Improvements**
* A setting was added to Preferences to disable the dialog box when exiting novelWriter. It is
available under the "Behaviour" section. Issue #2209. PR#2213.
* Recent projects on the Welcome dialog box are now tracked using their unique ID as well as their
path. This means that if a project is moved, it should not show up twice in the list, but the
path should be updated. Issue #2217. PR #2218.
**Documentation**
* A French version of the user guide is nov available from the Help menu if the GUi language is set
to French. The French translation was contributed by @Karduin. It is currently directly added to
the source, but from 2.7 it will be generated automatically in the same way the English user
guide is. Discussion #1834. PR #2220.
**Internationalisation**
* French translations are available up to the 2.6 release. That is, the new exit dialog setting is
not translated yet. PR #2214.
* Latin American Spanish, Norwegian, US English, German and Japanese translations are fully
updated. PR #2214.
