Bug Fixes in 1.5.1.1
0. Fixed - Scrivener crashes when a project is open and you try to create a new project or open another one - hence a new release - teach me for even suggesting that this could be the last beta before release
This bug was introduced as a side-effect of another bug fix.1. Fixed - Inspector Inline Notes lose formatting.
2. Fixed - If I create a text document and apply various colours to the text then compile to .mobi or .epub with the "Remove text color" option checked, the styles in the epub still assign text colours as can be seen by viewing the files.
3. Fixed - Allow the user to specify custom GUI font for Scrivener - Just say "Menu font" or such in the options rather than "GUI". I realize it touches more than the menus, but this is roughly what Windows says, and it will be more user-friendly even than "interface"--GUI is just going to be technobabble. Also, Can we add some indication by the text in the Options that this will require a restart before it is visible? Right now there's no feedback when you hit "Apply" so it seems like the setting didn't take.
4. Fixed - Scrivener freezes and must be force quit when using Find by Formatting to search for text and the next instance of the formatting type does not contain the search term.
5. Fixed - Copy and paste adds extra space before inline footnote. Now the footnotes are compiled with one space in front and no space at the end. for everything else, like copy/paste nothing is modified behind the scenes.
6. Fixed - Links within the document text, document and project notes, and inspector comments and footnotes are lost on saving and reopening a project--the hyperlink code is stripped from the RTF files. This occurs links created in 1.5.0.9 and for pre-existing links. This also currently affects Scrivener links from the latest beta Mac build at time of writing (22136) as it uses a new method to encode the links directly in the RTF.
7. Fixed - Further issues with:- Special characters used in document titles are not properly encoded in the toc.ncx file when compiling to .epub and .mobi, which causes validation errors and text to be undisplayed in readers (e.g. in Adobe Digital Editions, missing titles from the TOC and the title and text from the body). This occurs when either & or < is used in a document title that appears in the table of contents. These characters do appear properly encoded elsewhere in the epub/mobi files. This was mostly fixed in 1.5.0.9, however issues still exist with: Angle brackets, Ampersands in Adobe Digital Editions and Ampersand in meta-data title. (ALL FIXED IN 1.5.11)
8. Fixed - The German close quote is flipped vertically (it uses a double high-reversed-9 quotation mark U+201F instead of a left double quotation mark U+201C). Fix Note: Scrivener now uses pairs of (0x201E, 0x201C) instead of (0x201E, 0x201F). Use pairs of (0x201F, 0x201D) for Greek according to: http://www.tlg.uci.edu/~opoudjis/unicod ... ation.html
9. Fixed - Synopsis image lost on duplicate. If an document with an image synopsis is duplicated, the new copy loses the synopsis image; it should be retained just as a text synopsis is. Additionally this bug occurs when duplicating between projects. Items with image synopses, when dragged from one project binder to another, will lose their images.
10. Fixed/Added - Suggestion: Add Dutch smart quotes style - Add the „…” quotation typography option for smart quotes (Dutch, Polish, Romanian, and several other languages use this style). Nearly all other styles are already represented. As we have a Dutch translation almost done - it makes sense to add it also. Fix Note:- Dutch added and some more styles added according to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Englis ... tion_marks). Added tooltips for the combo box to show the corresponding country for every quote sign pair.
11. Additional fixes for Partial formatting reversion in linked footnotes & comments bug fixed in 1.5.0.9. The comments and footnotes correctly revert to the default ruler and font settings as described in the 1.5.0.9 report, but now all character formatting is lost as well (bold, italic, text colour, highlight)--this should be preserved. This has now been fixed.
KNOWN ISSUES:
1. Updated shortcut needed for superscript and subscript.
2. User Manual for release 1.5 not implemented.
