Good { morning, afternoon, evening },

The announcement of a pre-release version on the list may come as a surprise to some of you. :-) When preparing maintenance updates (which primarily consist of bug fixes, with few to no new features), we're going to post notification of the new versions to this list, so that anyone who's interested can take the new build for a spin.

Note that these are _pre-release_ versions. The intent is to fix bugs and address areas of improvement based on what our customers have reported. However, since the software is at this point not fully tested, there _may_ be bugs and regressions. If this prospect makes you nervous, then sticking with the public release versions is your best course of action. Nobody will be offended if you choose to do so; you're under no obligation to install and use anything but a public release. :-)

Following is a summary of the changes in the software since the last public release. The change notes are organized into additions, changes, and fixes, and are annotated where appropriate with case numbers. So if you recognize a number corresponding to a support case that was opened for you, you can now verify that it's been fixed correctly.

One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version, PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please send a bug report to <[email protected]> and we will deal with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on topic and productive for all list members.

Fixes
-----

*   [212954] Fixed bug in which the Emacs ^R and ^S keystrokes didn't
    invoke Live Search as they should have.

*   [212838] Fixed bug in which certain combinations of legacy
    preference settings would prevent drag-and-drop of an image file
    into an HTML document from generating markup.

*   When dropping an image file into an HTML document, the following
    expert prefs can be used to adjust behavior:

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit HTMLImageMarkupUsesFileNameForAlt -bool YES` `# by default, generate an "ALT" attribute with the file's name as the value`

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit HTMLImageMarkupCreatesSizeAttributes -bool YES`
    `# by default, generate width and height attributes for the image`

*   [213134] Removed references to the old Find dialog and other
    anachronisms from the Expert Preferences help.

*   [213291] Applied a bandaid to stop double-drawing while
    autoscrolling during a drag operation

*   [212337, 212491, 213219] Fixed crash which would occur when saving
    document state in some situations.

*   [...] The old preference controlling whether Previous/Next Document
operated in display order or history order was not migrated. It is now,
    and the new preference is:

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit SurfNextPreviousInDisplayOrder -bool YES`

*   [213479] Restored support for the Word Services event,
    `pBackgroundHilite` (`pBgH`)

+   There is a new expert pref: `AlwaysShowFileList`

    If "Open documents into the front window when possible" is turned
on, and this expert setting is set to `YES`, all text windows will
    open with the file list showing (this replicates the old drawer
    setting of "always").

-   [213514] Corrected a problem where attempting to disable a
hierarchical menu head node would cause all the separators to be
    crushed out of the menus.

- [213493] Corrected a problem where the head of a hierarchical menu
    could not be disabled/removed.

*   [213830] Fixed bug in which hiding the editor pane in a project
    window failed to make the window narrower, as it should have.

*   [212491] Fixed crash which would occur when saving certain document
    state changes, *or* when saving a file to an FTP/SFTP server
(disjoint use cases which went through the same shared code) in some
    situations.

* [213266 and others] Fixed crash which would occur after opening and closing a markup tools palette, and then using a menu command key or
    performing certain other operations. (Note that using Script
Debugger's dictionary explorer was a reliable way to trigger this.)

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
