Aggiornamenti in 9.6.0 Build 6802

Funzionalità

• Screen Capture: while selecting the capture area with the mouse, the mouse position can be moved by simply pressing the arrows keys. This is helpful on high resolution displays to fine-position the mouse pointer to the edge of a window.
• Screencast: the options dialog for screencasts includes a new option: Enlarge cursor icon.
• Image hotspot editor asks to save changes, if the dialog is cancelled after changes have been made.
• Topic Editor: when using TAB or SHIFT+TAB in a numbered list or bullet list, this increases or decreases the list level, respectively.
• Topic Editor, Zoom: the zoom trackbar got a right-click menu with typical zoom values.
• Editor Style Dropdown: the dropdown list for the style combo box was too long in some cases and may have exceeded the screen height.
• For new help projects, the spelling check exclusion of style “Code Format” is now true by default.
• HTML Export (Webhelp, CHM, eWriter):
  • SNIPX images that are going to be exported as SVG now use the <object> tag instead of the <img> tag. This enables embedded animated SVGs and object links inside the SNIPX file.
  • Images, toggle images, videos and Xplains with captions are exported with a <figure> and <figcaption> combination. This also works for images with caption that do not have an ID. The <figure> and <figcaption> tags are wrapper tags around the image and are compatible even with very old browsers.
  • Math objects (equations) exported as SVG are written with ARIA role=”math”.
  • QR code objects are written an alt attribute: alt=”<datastring>”.
  • For all videos, the <iframe> tag now has a title attribute (taken from the video caption or alt value).
  • HTML skins and standard templates: ARIA landmark tags and roles added to all standard skins. (If you use customized skins, you may optionally update them.)
  • Standard responsive Webhelp Skins: small change to the search script to always focus the search box when the search page gets loaded.
  • HTML Help (.chm) export: if a project included Helpxplain slideshows and the temporary folder for the CHM output was not empty (because it was not deleted after a prior export), this skipped the export of this Xplain (which was correct), but did not include the Xplain in the .HHP file, either (which was wrong).
  • eWriter Export: if the specified custom icon file was missing, the error was reported during compilation, but the .ewriter file could not be displayed because of the missing icon.
• eWriter: This release includes the latest eViewer 5.2 in this update.
• HTML Import (affecting CHM/HTML5/Robohelp import):
  • Improved copy & paste of HTML code from the Windows clipboard.
  • CHM Import:  better support for HHCTRL ActiveX objects. If a link uses a “related topics” HHCTRL control to jump to another topic, these links are resolved. Some Doc-to-Help projects contain such links.
  • The title attribute of links is imported and assigned.
  • HTML CSS with class names is split up into Help+Manual style templates. This results in significantly less inline CSS.
• Word/DocX Export: improved export of file links. External file links are now exported without a “file://” prefix, similar to MS Word.
• PDF Export/Print: if an index keyword has so many page references that the text doesn’t fit in one line, the justified text option is removed for this keyword and all text is printed left-aligned.
