Help & Manual Basic 8.4.2 Build 5920

Released: Dec 17, 2021

Updates in 8.4.2 Build 5920

Features

  • This update includes a revised Microsoft Sandcastle import with better style support, larger default fonts and optional table styles.
  • Windows Meta Files (.WMF) on high-resolution monitors - WMF images have a face value of their regular size, which is actually coined for a 96 dpi system. On high-res systems, WMF files will appear larger than they originally appeared. Version 8.4.2. compensates for this difference.
  • Table of Contents - When copying items within the TOC, topics were always automatically created or duplicated, respectively. There is a new paste option in the drop-down menu of the Paste button, to paste TOC entries only, without duplicating topics.
  • EWriter eBooks - The default width and height of the viewer window depended on the resolution of the monitor where H&M was running. It is now treated independently from that resolution.
  • Batch publishing - If there is no license at all (demo version) the batch export warns about no license and exits with ExitCode 99.

Fixes

  • Fixed a very rare problem that could have sometimes cause the eWriter export to fail.
  • Word/DOCX export: bugfix with Word styles.
  • Image toggles in HTML export - The magnifier SVG symbol shown on image toggles was slightly clipped on the top and left side.
  • Project Language - “Norwegian Nynorsk” was listed twice in the language list (two times NO-NO instead of NO plus NO-NO).
  • Publishing Tasks: optical glitch fixed – the last task entry was hidden by the horizontal scrollbar if the main window was too narrow.
  • Hard page breaks with a change of print orientation at the beginning of a topic caused a parasite blank paragraph in HTML export.
