Additions & Changes
This update contains only fixes for reported issues.
Fixes
Fixed bug in which the "Enter Full Screen" command would appear twice at the end of the View menu.
Worked around misbehavior of
rust-analyzerwhen generating completions in some situations by advertising (and implementing) LSPinsertReplaceSupport.Fixed regression in which XML documents were inappropriately treated as HTML5, which (among other things) would cause odd folding behavior.
Added a mechanism for resolving conflicting Spaces behavior.
The default behavior works around a misfeature in the OS which causes the macOS application switch to select an inappropriate Space when activating the application while the Find window is open; but creates a situation in which choosing "Find" (or Cmd-F, by default) or "Multi-File Search" (Cmd-Shift-F, by default) will activate the Space containing the Find/MFS window if it is already open. To work around that issue and have the windows move to the active Space instead, use the following Terminal command:
defaults write com.barebones.bbedit MoveModelessWindowsToActiveSpace -bool YESFixed bug in which the recent items menu (at the bottom of the sidebar) in Notebook windows did not show the correct names of the items.
Fixed bug in which pattern errors were not correctly reported in codeless language modules.
Fixed bug in which files which were locked due to a Finder lock would lose their locked-ness if the underlying server volume was unmounted.
Worked around macOS file system API behavior which would cause Finder tags not to be shown for files on remote server volumes and (evidently) some direct-attached external volumes.
Fixed bug in which soft-wrapping width calculations were incorrect when printing with line numbers shown for documents with a small total number of lines.
Fixed bug in which the "Save Clipping" and "Save Selection as Clipping" commands allowed "/" in the clipping or set name, which resulted in an error when trying to create the set/clipping.
Fixed bug in which switching from a color scheme which was missing some color settings (resulting in the use of the "Plain text" color from the scheme) to a color scheme which had those settings, and back to the first scheme, would result in the second scheme's settings persisting inappropriately.
