Good afternoon folks,
We're currently working on another maintenance update to BBEdit
12 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. :-)
Complete change notes to date for all the pre-release builds in
this cycle are available here:
<https://s3.amazonaws.com/BBSW-download/12.6.7_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 <supp...@barebones.com> and we will deal
with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on
topic and productive for all list members.
Here is the list of changes made since the 12.6.6 public release version:
============================================================================
version 12.6.7 (412115) (2019-08-27)
* This version of BBEdit requires macOS 10.12.6 or later. It will
not run on previous versions of macOS or Mac OS X.
Additions
---------
* (none in this build)
Changes
-------
* [DOC] Made a change to ask the OS-provided print panel to place
the page attribute controls (orientation, scaling, paper
size) in
the panel proper, rather than hiding them behind the "Page
Attributes" section in the popup menu.
Fixes
-----
* [373734] Fixed a case in which the application could crash when
clicking in a text view, given certain unexpected internal state.
* [374316] Worked around a system windowing behavior which would
cause the following unexpected behavior: when starting the
application in which the saved state specified a window in full
screen mode, if the application was started by opening a document
that wasn't previously open in that window, the document being
opened (and any other such additional documents) would open into
a separate window.
* [374426] Fixed bug in which the default printing timestamp
setting was not applied correctly to the Print panel's settings
when printing a document.
* [374339] Worked around file system behavior on macOS 10.15 in
which files written into `TMPDIR` and then passed to BBEdit for
comparison would disappear when clicking on the file's contents
in the Differences window. (For example, temp revision files
created by `git difftool` or `svn diff`.)
* Fixed a crash which would occur when quitting the application
while open documents were waiting to process a change
notification from the ctags subsystem.
* [370366, 373715, 374383] Fixed a hang which would occur when
spell-checking documents and the effective language module
indicated that a particular range of text was to be skipped.
* [374365] Fixed a bug in which the cursor would alternate between
an I-beam and an arrow while dragging out a text selection.
