Released: Aug 12, 2023

Updates in 9.2.0 Build 6536

Features

• Mouse wheel: It's now easier to scroll any control without clicking on it.
• Find and Replace dialog: The 'Current topic/All topics/All from here' selector has been replaced with 3 buttons. Plus, for text searches in the current topic, a 'wrap around' option has been added.
• Open Project: The recent files list now has a new right-click menu entry: 'Show in Windows Explorer'. This will open Microsoft Windows Explorer and select the project file.
• Topic Editor, Images: Added a new entry in the right-click menu for images in topics: 'Picture > Show in Windows Explorer'. This function locates the picture file on disk and opens Windows Explorer.
• Snippets in Topics: Added a new entry in the topic editor right-click menu: 'Locate Snippet Source'.
• Project Overview Page: Statistic display has been changed to a bar diagram, which has faster calculation and faster display.
• Added a new variable for figure links: <%HMFIGURENUMBER%>. This variable can be alternatively used instead of <%HMFIGURECAPTION%>. While <%HMFIGURECAPTION%> returns the full string of the figure reference, <%HMFIGURENUMBER%> returns the number only.
• Word/RTF import: Added a new option to import anchors in topics.
• HTML Help / CHM Export: if export option 'Export SVG files as PNG' is set to true, math objects (equations) are exported as PNG files, not as inline SVG. This export option originally applied to external SVG files only and is now used for inline SVG as well.
• Webhelp Export: Updated search script for the PHP based full-text search now supports PHP 8.

Fixes

• Report Tool: Repository snippet references were displayed in red, indicating a missing status. In the full project report, comments were listed with an invalid date.
• Word/RTF import: Anchors were assigned to links automatically, but the anchor objects were not imported.
• Word/RTF import: Anchors in tables were not correctly resolved and could result in dead links.
• Markdown import: UTF-8 strings with 3 or 4 bytes per character were not imported correctly.
• Conditional Text/IFDEFs: When editing an IFDEF object, everything of the IFDEF string beyond 255 characters was truncated in the dialog initialization.
• Webhelp Export: Full-text search page contained an error if Google Analytics 4 was not defined.
• PDF Export: If the "Tables" section in the manual template was not used, but the document contained figure links, the figure tables were not automatically calculated prior to export.
• PDF Export: Some printing issues with figure tables have been fixed.
• User Interface: Refresh Project button was disabled for repositories.
• Temporary files folder: If a fixed location was specified for the temp files folder (CHM export, eWriter, ePUB), the temp folder name included the project name only. If more than 1 project with the same file name (e.g. multiple languages of one project) were published at the same time, the folder names conflicted.
• eWriter Viewer 3.5:
  • Small bug fix when moving viewer window from one monitor to another.
  • When the viewer was called with a command line like 'loadpage=index.html?page.html#anchor1', and "page.html" was already loaded, it did not refresh and did not jump to the anchor.
