<h2>Release Notes for 1.1 RC1</h2>
|
|
<p><i>Released on 31 January 2021</i></p>
|
|
<p>This is a preview and test release for version 1.1.</p>
|
|
<p>A few new features have been added. The primary change is that the project tree on the left side
|
|
of the main window now has two tabs. The regular project tree is now on a tab named "Project",
|
|
while a new tab "Novel" displays a simpler version of the information on the main "Outline" page.
|
|
It lists all the headers of the novel part of the project, as well as the word count and
|
|
point-of-view character of each section. This is an alternative way to navigate the novel part of
|
|
the project. The various tree views are now also kept better in sync when the user selects various
|
|
documents and headers.</p>
|
|
<p>In addition, a new information dialog named "Project Details" has been added. It replaces the
|
|
"Details" tab in "Project Settings", and adds more information about the novel part of the project.
|
|
In particular, a "Table of Contents" in the "Contents" tab displays a summary of the main parts
|
|
and chapters of the project, their total word counts, and an estimated page count. This was made in
|
|
response to users asking for ways to estimate the total page count of the project. The page count
|
|
is estimated based on the word count, and can be changed on the dialog window.</p>
|
|
<p>Since the tabs below the project tree now adds some extra room on the GUI, some convenient
|
|
buttons have been added, with direct access to "Project Details", "Writing Statistics" and "Project
|
|
Setting".</p>
|
|
<p>A few other minor changes have been made as well. The Preferences dialog has been improved with
|
|
clearer categories and hopefully better help text. Some new options have been added too. They allow
|
|
syntax highlighting of multi-paragraph quotes. The highlighter can now optionally accept quotes to
|
|
be left "hanging", that is, no closing quote in the same paragraph.</p>
