# novelWriter Changelog
|
||||
|
||||
## Version 2.1 RC 1 [2023-08-31]
|
||||
|
||||
### Release Notes
|
||||
|
||||
This is a release candidate of the next release version, and is intended for testing purposes.
|
||||
Please be careful when using this version on live writing projects, and make sure you take frequent
|
||||
backups.
|
||||
|
||||
Please check the changelog for an overview of changes. The full release notes will be added to the
|
||||
final release.
|
||||
|
||||
### Detailed Changelog
|
||||
|
||||
**Bugfixes**
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed an issue where closing modal dialogs would close their parent. Issue #1494. PR #1496.
|
||||
* The log output no longer prints an error message if the project does not have anything in its
|
||||
custom dictionary. PR #1495.
|
||||
|
||||
**Usability**
|
||||
|
||||
* novelWriter will no longer try to restore full screen mode if full screen was activated when it
|
||||
was last closed. This never worked right anyway. PR #1498.
|
||||
* There are several usability updates for the Build Settings tool. Please check the PR for details.
|
||||
Some key changes are that the build dialogs are now children of the main GUI, so they can be
|
||||
moved freely from each other. The Selection page has been given a new look that should hopefully
|
||||
make it easier to understand, and the side bar for the tool has been redesigned. A few labels
|
||||
have also been changed to be easier to understand. Issue #1497. PR #1499.
|
||||
* The alert and message boxes have been reimplemented with the full feature set of the Qt message
|
||||
box dialog instead of using the quick access functions with limited functionality. PR #1501.
|
||||
* A project's spell check dictionary can now be set directly from the Tools menu. Issue #1260.
|
||||
PR #1508.
|
||||
* The document details dialog box now shows a document's creation and update date if that has been
|
||||
set. Issue #1423. PR #1510.
|
||||
* Moving the mouse wheel on any area within the border of the text editor or viewer will now scroll
|
||||
the document. Issue #1425. PR #1511.
|
||||
|
||||
**Code Improvements**
|
||||
|
||||
* A new shared data instance now owns the Gui Theme, the Project class and holds a link to the main
|
||||
Gui instance as well. This new class also handles message and alert boxes. The project instance
|
||||
is now destroyed and recreated between each project close/open cycle. This should guard better
|
||||
from project to project data leakage. PRs #1502 and #1504.
|
||||
* The spell checker instance has been moved to the new shared data instance where it is destroyed
|
||||
and recreated together with the project instance. This blocks against bleed-through of the user's
|
||||
custom dictionary. PR #1508.
|
||||
* Text hash (SHA1) and creation and update time stemps are now added to the document file's meta
|
||||
data section. The hash is used to detect file changes outside of novelWriter while documents are
|
||||
open. The old checker has been deleted. Issue #1423. PR #1509.
