  • Command Palette (ctrl-shift-p)
    You now have a command palette that lets you search for most operations and apply them. There's a searchbox in the Windows title bar, where you can type commands to find and execute them. While this doesn't replace native shortcuts it provides for additional discovery of available commands and options.
    commands are still being added but most common functionality is available now

  • Folder Browser Markdown Preview Modes
    Added a Folder Browser configuration switch FolderBrowser.MarkdownPreviewMode that lets you choose between the previous EditorPreview mode that displays a transitory document that is closed when another document is accessed unless the document has been changed, or the new HtmlPreview mode which displays the rendered Html view. Preview mode is triggered by a single click in the Folder browser, while double click (or Open in Editor) opens the document as a normal fully editable document.

  • Improved Document Loading
    Updated the document load sequence to improve performance and consistency loading documents. Most performance gains can be seen around navigation from the folder browser which reduces extra document open/close operations by now reusing tabs in some situations. Overall better performance and less document load flicker.

  • Improved Preview Document Loading in Folder Browser
    When clicking at editable documents in the Folder browser, documents are initially displayed in Preview Mode which is a transient tab that disappears until a change is made or - now - you click into the preview mode document. Improved how these tabs are created and they are now reused to provide quicker and much smoother navigation of Markdown documents.

  • Clicking into Preview Document now switches to Full Document
    Previously preview document tabs required changing text in the document to trigger becoming a 'normal', full document. Now, clicking into the documentis all it takes to make it a full, non-transitory tab.

  • Improved Markdown List UI on Toolbar
    Added support for Checkbox Lists. The 3 list options now show on drop down with the main button still adding a plain list as before. The three options are: Standard List, Numbered List, Checkbox List. Also improved handling of single line selections or no selections on line which now always add the list operator to the front of the line unlike before at the cursor position.

  • Remove Leading White space on Extra Markdown Features Menu
    This option on the Extra Features Dropdown strips all common leading white space from a multi-line selection. This is useful for stripping off white space from code pasted from a code editor that has indentation or other text that might be otherwise indented. Removes white space that is common to all lines of text. (then again for code use alt-c code pasting do this and fencing automatically)

  • Sticky Search Subfolders for Folder Browser File Searching
    The subfolder option for inline and explicit search pane searches is now sticky via a FolderBrowser.SearchInSubFolders configuration setting. Once updated it's remembered across MM sessions. #934

  • Add Drag and Drop Links from Favorites
    You can now drag favorites into a document and link to the file in the same way you can for the Folder Browser. Not super practical unless the favorite link is relative to the current file or project.

  • WebLog Custom Fields Context Menu
    Added a Custom Fields context menu which draws values from a user defined menu of custom weblog post values (such as mt_githuburl, mt_location, mt_date) etc. These are typically user defined values that have special meaning on the server, but can be painful to remember if you're using them for custom values. You can now define any custom keys in the Weblog configuration as WeblogConfig.CustomFieldNames.

  • Make Spell Underlining Stylable
    Add logic to allow customizing the way the spell check highlighting looks via editor-user-extesions.css and the .ace_marker-layer .misspelled style. Allows changing colors, thickness etc. as other page elements. This was previously hardcoded in the custom spell check logic MM uses.

  • Fix: Cleanup Folder Browser Markdown Document Navigation
    Fixed several issues related to document navigation in the Folder browser that resulted in overly janky document opening and occasionally double opened documents.

  • Fix: Folder Browser Double Click Flashes and Occasional Load Failures
    Fix issues related to double clicking in the folder browser that occasionally would cause documents to double load or fail to load and display a blank document.

  • Fix: Non-intended Drag and Drop Operations
    Fix problem where slight mouse movements while clicking would trigger drag and drop operations that could cause accidental file moves. Widened drag minimums and fixed location pinning that was off and previously resulted in over eager drag operations.

  • Fix: Html Edit/Format Table Detection Failing
    Fixed issue where Edit and Format Table context menu choices were not working when trying to open the Table editor. #932

  • Fix: Table Editor with Pipe char in Pipe and Grid Tables
    Fix bug where editing or formatting a Pipe or Grid Table that contains escaped pipe characters - ie. \|- would create additional columns rather than capturing the pipe character. Fixed.
    #933

  • Fix: MM won't launch if an older WebView Runtime is installed
    MM by default won't launch if an older WebView runtime is installed and prompt for re-installing the latest WebView runtime. Usually this is not a problem but in some cases an older version may be installed and the app should be allowed to run (such as when running Canary builds). You can now override this behavior via a
    System.IgnoreWebViewVersionMismatch=true configuration setting.

  • Fix: Toggle External to Preview Browser
    Fix issue where the internal preview would not display when toggling from external to internal previewer. Previously you had to manually toggle the Previewer's visibility. Now external -> internal properly shows the internal previewer activated.

  • Fix: Footnote Link Navigation in Previewer
    Fix issue with clicking on Footnote links and references not navigating the document to the footnote. Fixed. #937
