Release Notes

We are glad to announce the immediate availability of Help+Manual and Translation Assistant v10.2. This update includes an important bug fix for secondary TOCs, LibreOffice compatibility and an update of the DeepL plugin. Help+Manual 10.2 Changes

  • Secondary TOCs: when a project was refreshed (in multi-user mode or after synchronize from VCS), new secondary table of contents created by other users did not show up. It was required to close the project and re-open it again to make the new TOCs visible.
  • Secondary TOCs: the source XML file names for secondary TOCs are no longer enumerated, but created with a unique file name ID.
  • Topic Editor / Program Options: the setting for editor ruler units has a 5th option: NONE/HIDE to hide the ruler completely.
  • Paste image from clipboard: the suggested screenshot name no longer includes a number or the username, it follows a naming convention of date+time, similar to the naming of screenshots on macOS.
