What's New:

  • Addressed several bugs that could cause crashes:
    • Fixed: deleting pages, directly or indirectly (eg: by deleting page breaks), can cause crash if last visible page needed to be removed during redraw.
    • Fixed: tables: possible crash when importing/pasting content with certain configurations of nested tables (eg: from Safari).
    • Fixed: possible crash when inserting text near the end of a text area that uses the "Display as Capitalized" case changing attribute.
    • Changed: attempt to prevent to prevent possible Page View crash on OSX 10.6 when typing.
  • Fixed: lists: should be able to set list starting number for a single paragraph in the document text, ie: override starting list number enforced by styles.
  • Fixed: deleting some text should persist the formatting of that text in the typing attributes, eg: text typed just afterwards should have the same attributes.
  • Added: palettes: holding down the Command key when clicking a palette stepper's up/down arrows will restore the old behavior, where the first shown value is applied uniformly to the entire selection, instead of adjusting all selected values independently.
  • Fixed: palettes: using a palette stepper's down arrow should affect all selected values, even if the first selected value is at zero.
