Good { morning, afternoon, evening },

We're working on an update to BBEdit 12.0 to address a few recently reported issues.

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/12.0.2_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
-----

*   [346918] Fixed a regression in which "Save [a Copy] to FTP/SFTP"
server didn't pick up on an active connection in cases where an
    FTP/SFTP browser window was open.

* [347472, 347494] Fixed crash which would occur when switching an
    existing Text Factory action to a one that required certain
    parameters to be present.

*   [347335] Fixed bug in which "Bring All to Front" didn't.

*   [347295, 347467] Fixed a bug in which typing was visibly slow
    while editing documents in languages implemented by codeless
language modules (although the language module was itself not the
    source of the problem).

*   [NFR] Fixed a bug in which closing a project with open documents
    would report a -1708 error when the
    `AutoRevealSelectedDocumentInProjectList` expert preference had
    been turned on.

*   [346976, 347878] Fixed incorrect baseline layout of printed page
    headers when using certain fonts.

*   Fixed a bug in which quitting the application while it was
hidden (by using Log Out, Restart, Shut Down, or the Quit menu on
    the dock icon) would fail to save its internal state. This would
    result in data loss in cases where the state included unsaved
    documents that hadn't recently been autosaved.

*   Fixed a memory leak when putting attributed text on the
    pasteboard.

*   [347609] Made a change to prevent a crash when closing the
    Clippings and/or Insert Clipping panel while running on 10.11.6.

*   [348154, 347777] Fixed bug in which files which were explicitly
    added to a project (vs being within a folder that had been added
    to the project) were not filtered correctly during multi-file
    search operations.

[DOC] Please note that if you use the Multi-File Search window to specify individual files, *and* you are using a file filter, the
    files you specify must match the filter or they will not be searched.

*   [347925] Fixed a bug in the PHP function scanner/fold generator
    in which it didn't properly handle certain kinds of
    brace/paren/bracket nesting, and so wouldn't correctly generate
    folds for arrays in certain files.

*   [347850] Symlinks/aliases are now allowed for items in the
    Preview Filters and Preview CSS application support folders,
    which makes it easier to work with preinstalled Markdown tools
    and style sheets in existing project directories.

*   [348169] Fixed a bug in which the initially selected item in the
    completion panel wasn't scrolled into view when it should have
    been.

*   [347286] Fixed a bug in which invoking a clipping from the
    completion panel would lead to a bizarre chain of events in which
    the completion panel ran an AppleScript with a `display dialog`
verb which accepted user input, *and* the Return or Enter key was
    used to accept the input in the dialog. The result was that the
    script would run again, lather rinse repeat.

*   [348116] Restored heading level indicators for entries in the
    function menu for Markdown documents.

*   [348266] After connecting to a server, the FTP/SFTP browser
    window will move keyboard focus to the listing view; and after
    disconnecting, it will move focus back to the "Connect" button.
    This will save a press or two of the Tab key.

*   Fixed a memory leak which would occur when closing the Find or
    Multi-File Search windows.

*   Reworked some code to try to work around Radar 35052088, in
    which the OS crashes the application some period of time after
    being asked to record a recently opened document.

*   [347756] Fixed bug in which dragging the title bar icon from a
    window displaying a document opened via the built-in FTP/SFTP
support would drag the location of its backing file, and not the
    remote URL.

*   The factory default for showing Git ignored files in disk
    browsers and project folders has been changed, so that such items
    are now visible. The "Git Ignored Files" item in the filter menu
    (magnifying glass in the sidebar) can be used to adjust this
    setting.

*   Fixed a latent bug that could have caused a crash when dragging
    text into the Find or Multi-File Search text boxes.

*   [346977/347828] Corrected behavior when attempting to initiate
    dragging from a background window; the drag now starts correctly
rather than activating the window (and potentially obscuring the
    destination).

*   Fixed bug in which multi-file search/replace results windows
    would leak a small amount of memory after use.

*   Fixed bug in which Differences windows would leak a small amount
    of memory after use.

*   [346918] Fixed bug in which the "Save [a Copy] to FTP/SFTP
    Server" panel didn't automatically connect to the destination
server in cases where it had enough information available to do
    so.

*   [347929] Fixed bug in which clicking in the "scroll" area of a
    horizontal text view scrollbar would fail to scroll in the
    appropriate direction.

*   Fixed a singleton memory leak.

*   [346918] Fixed bug in which the "Save [a Copy] to FTP/SFTP
    Server" panel would not automatically connect in situations where
    it should have.

*   Made a change to work around an OS application framework
    behavior which would sometimes cause Apple Events to be
    dispatched incorrectly, which in turn could lead to unpredictable
    and undesired behavior during various operations.
