Shift+Enter, or Format ▸ Insert line break, starts a new line in the same paragraph, for the lines of a poem, a song or a letter. Every export keeps the lines. In an older version of Skribisto, the project still opens, each line then a paragraph of its own
In the find bar, Shift+Enter goes to the previous match, as its button says. It used to go to the next one
In the find bar's replace row, Alt+A replaces every match, on Windows and Linux. It used to do nothing
A scene opened from the Trash can be read, selected and copied, and nothing else: typing, Cut, Paste, the Format menu and panel, the right-click menu, and inserting an image, a footnote or a template all leave it as it is. It used to take them
With “Always forward” on, nothing takes your words away any more. Ctrl+X, a spelling correction, renaming a link and deleting a table row, column or table used to, and a formatting mark, a picture or a scene break inserted over a selection used to replace it
In a scene from the Trash, or with “Always forward” on, the find bar's Replace and Replace All are greyed. They used to look available and do nothing
The search preview shows a scene from the Trash read-only, as its own tab does. A synopsis shown there follows “Always forward” only when the game covers synopses, as it does in the scene
With a screen reader, the text you write is read paragraph by paragraph, a list is announced as a list with its markers and its depth, and a picture or a footnote is read where it stands. Paragraphs used to run together, and lists were read as plain text
Text pasted from a web page or from LibreOffice keeps its line breaks. The words either side of a line break used to run together
Importing a Word, OpenDocument or RTF document, or a Scrivener, Plume Creator or older Skribisto project, keeps the line breaks inside its paragraphs. Each line used to become a paragraph of its own
A long paragraph in Arabic or Hebrew now shows its lines in reading order. Its first line used to show its last words
On a Mac with a Touch Bar, Skribisto no longer crashes when you close one of its windows, such as Settings or Help
On a Mac, quitting from the Dock now asks about unsaved changes, as Work ▸ Quit does, and Cancel keeps everything open. Skribisto used to close at once
When the system closes Skribisto (you log out, restart or shut down, or another program stops it), your open projects are now saved first, without a question. Skribisto used to close with the last changes unsaved
When a menu you opened with the mouse closes, the caret is back in your text and you can go on typing. It used to stay on the menu button, and you had to click back into the text
In the title bar's menu, Edit ▸ Paste, Paste without formatting and Select all now work while you write. They were greyed out whenever the menu was open
The Mac application menu now has Services, Hide others and Show all, in the language of the interface
On a Mac, the help pages name keyboard shortcuts with the Mac's own keys, such as ⌘S. They used to say Ctrl+S
Ctrl+W, or ⌘W on a Mac, now closes Settings and the Help window. It used to do nothing in either
A note's Details page now shows Appears in the manuscript when you first open it after giving the note a Find in prose tag in the Inspector. It used to wait until you closed the note's tab and opened it again
On a Mac and on Windows, choosing Discard when New Work asks about unsaved changes now opens the New Work form. The question closed and nothing else happened
