Changelog/v0.3.0

v0.3.0

Features

A screenshot of the search panel open over the book's content with the "Alice" text entered into the search field. A list of chapters containing the searched text is displayed below.

Search through your book's contents, styles, and assets with the new global search panel (⌘+F on macOS, Ctrl+F on Windows/Linux). It's blazing-fast and groups results by kind and sections for easier navigation.

A screenshot of the paragraph element expanded into a tree list of nested elements on the page.

Use the Navigator to see the full element structure of your current selection and switch between elements for surgically precise styling.

Project recovery

A screenshot of the Project recovery dialog presenting you with the choice to open the latest project version on disk or restore the previously crashed session.

Content loss is unacceptable. The application now automatically and periodically snapshots your changes to prevent content loss on crashes. Upon opening the projects that crashed mid-session, you are now presented with the option to restore the unsaved state or continue with the last saved version on the disk.
