Good afternoon folks,

We're working on an update to BBEdit 11.6 to address a few recently reported issues.

Note that this is a _pre-release_ version. 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 changes since the most recent pre-release build. Complete change notes for all of the pre-release builds in this cycle are available here: <http://pine.barebones.com/rowboat/11.6.1_Notes.txt>.

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. Please take the time to review the changes before using the new build -- it'll be worth your time.

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.

============================================================================

version 11.6.1 (3945)   (2016-07-15)

Additions
---------

*   [DOC] The "Options" panel in the Multi-File Search window now
provides control over whether to search Git ignored files or not.

*   The file filter popup menu for disk browsers and project windows
    (available under the magnifying glass icon) now has a command:
    "Git Ignored Files". This command controls whether
    `git-check-ignore` is applied when filtering files for inclusion
    in the sidebar. It's off by default, so any item which is
    excluded by a `.gitignore` file will be hidden.

Changes
-------

*   [DOC] The "List Display Font" setting in the Appearance
    preferences has been replaced with a slider to set the font size.
    Lists in the application all use the system font. Most will use
    the specified size, except in specific cases where circumstance
    requires the use of a fixed font size.

*   Differences that have been applied are now crossed out in the
    Differences window list, in order to avoid janky font italicizing
    effects on some OS versions.

Fixes
-----

*   Fixed a case in which changes made by a `documentDidSave`
    attachment script would trigger a subsequent warning about the
    document having unsaved changes.

*   Made changes to improve performance when bringing up the Open
    File by Name window with very large Git projects.

*   Fixed a pair of bugs that conspired to prevent scratchpad
    documents (the Scratchpad and Unix Worksheet) from correctly
    remembering and restoring their state across open/close cycles.

*   [324069] Fixed bug in which files opened via the ODB external
    editor interface (e.g. from other file transfer clients) would
    show the path to the temporary file rather than the display path
    provided by the client.

*   [324043, 324075] Fixed Perforce configuration file discovery so
    that config files (as specified in the `P4CONFIG` environment
    variable) whose names are something other than `.p4config` will
    work correctly.

* [323550, 324307] Fixed a crash which would occur when changing a
    language-specific color scheme setting to "Application Defaults".

*   If a folder that you chose for a disk browser, instaproject (by
    dragging it on to the application), multi-file search, or Find
    Differences is itself ignored by a `.gitignore` file, the
    application ignores (see what I did there) that fact, and will
    operate on its contents as usual.

*   [324339] The "BBEdit Light" and "BBEdit Classic" color schemes
    no longer include explicit highlight colors, thus allowing the
    system highlight color selection to apply.

*   [324371] Fixed crash which would occur when completing a Markup
    Builder panel operation with some attributes set to empty values.

*   Fixed bug in which the color used for highlighting selected
    items in lists wouldn't always track changes to the highlight
    color setting in the General system preferences.

*   Fixed a crash which would occur on OS X 10.12 when opening the
    Preferences window more than once during a run of the
    application. (This addresses Radar 27293621.)

*   Fixed bug in which PHP completion was not providing detailed
    parameter completions.

*   [324372] Fixed bug in which the File Info panel would fail to
    appear on OS X 10.9.5.

*   Fixed bug in which using up-arrow and down-arrow while in the
    Open File by Name window's search box would change the selection
    in the results list, without bringing it into view.

*   [324361, 324459] Worked around OS behavior on 10.11 in which the
    search box in the Open File by Name window would lose keyboard
    focus and not get it back when it should have.
