Hi there, guys!
Today we’ve brought you the stabilization release of Story Architect 0.6.4. It includes a bunch of fixes for detected issues and a couple of nice little things.
Without a long introduction, let's see what's included in the update:
- the ability to customize hotkeys for import and export operations is added (Application Settings - Hotkeys);
- display of links in the mental map editor is improved by reducing the area of a cell used to define its borders when calculating the position of links;
- a possibility to choose the type of counter displayed in the novel navigator (by words or by characters) is added;
- work of limitation of entering several spaces in a row is improved;
- when closing and then opening the navigator using the corresponding button, its size is now memorized and correctly restored;
- the last selected document type is saved in the dialog of adding documents;
- new custom scripts/novels design template is now applied automatically at the moment of creation;
- spell check is added to all fields of character, location and world profiles;
- detection of when automatic script text corrections are made is improved;
- a crash on export is fixed in some cases;
- a problem with text clipping / text getting into the input field header is fixed;
- an application freezing when trying to select lines in comic/audio drama/play modules is fixed in some cases;
- a problem with synchronization of cursor position between text and cards after changing the current document is fixed;
- a problem with resetting text formatting when splitting a paragraph into two is fixed;
- a problem with applying formatting to text that joins a previous paragraph after line breaks are removed is fixed;
- a problem with full-width text display when working in plain text mode for the novel module is fixed;
- application crashes when processing characters with two spaces in a row in their name is fixed;
- a problem with character photo generation is fixed for some prompts;
- a problem with launching the application is fixed on Windows in some cases;
- a problem with accent input is fixed on Linux in some cases.
During the last month, we have been trying to publish STARC in the Windows application store (and making improvements to it). So far we have not been very successful, but we will definitely continue this path and next year we’re going to publish our application in both Windows and Apple app stores.
That's how the new release turned out. Have a good time and see you soon!
