Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
We're working on a major upgrade to BBEdit, and have decided to
make a pre-release version available to the BBEdit-Talk
discussion group.
*** Please note that 12.0 is not an automatic free upgrade. Your
license code for BBEdit 11 or older will not work, but you
should have no difficulty using BBEdit 12 in evaluation mode for
the duration of the standard 30-day evaluation period.
*** If you purchased BBEdit 11 very recently, or are about to do
so, there is no cause for alarm - we will announce free-upgrade
details and send license codes to eligible customers when the
new version is released.
*** You can use BBEdit 11.6.8 and 12.0 side-by-side for the
duration of the beta period, if you wish. (This is actually a
good idea, since you can cross-check any problems against the
old version while writing up a bug report.)
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: <https://s3.amazonaws.com/BBSW-download/12.0_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.

Fixes
-----
* [NFR] [343503] Fixed bug in which inline input would cause the
insertion point to scroll to the top quarter of the text view,
whether it needed to or not.
* [NFR] Fixed a bug in which the application would crash when
using the Markers navigation bar item with a large number of
markers.
* [345204] Made a change so that any errors that occur while
right-clicking on sidebar items in a project window are not
reported. This allows actions such as right-clicking on a missing
SFTP item to pop up the contextual menu (so that you can remove
it) without an alert interfering.
* [NFR] [345299] Fixed a regression in which certain keyboard
gestures were executed twice in editing views.
