About Version 3.4.1

Version 3.4.1 is a bug fix release intended to address a few select issues.

Nisus Writer Express version 3.4.1 is free for existing users of Express verson 3.x.

Changes in Version 3.4.1

  • Changed: improved in-application feedback reporter (via the Help menu).
  • Fixed: Nisus New File can fail to load when running a non-English localization, preventing launch.
  • Fixed: crash that can occur on Lion when OSX probes/changes all scroll view settings. Only occurs if documents have been closed with certain types of GUI interactions.
  • Added: added Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR) localization.
  • Changed: our application support folder name should be "Nisus Writer Express", not just "Nisus Writer". If the old folder exists, we move old materials and create a link to the new folder.
  • Fixed: possible crash when saving files with certain nested fields / cross-references.
  • Fixed: import: Express should be able to import ".doc" files on 10.4.11.
  • Fixed: spell: all parts of a URL should be excluded from spellcheck, not just the first fragment (eg: domain).
  • Fixed: styles: possible hang when deleting a list style.
  • Changed: better default toolbar item set for Express.
  • Fixed: loc: the French localization's Add Document Manager group dialog had very badly misplaced controls.
  • Changed: Convert From Unicode made more lenient in scanning.
  • Fixed: MenuKey preferences should reload the available menu list when switching back to that preference pane.
  • Fixed: ruler: the first document opens with two left tab stop markers in the ruler tab well menu, instead of a left tab and a decimal tab.
  • Changed: when reopening a document and restoring/scrolling the selection, it should be centered in view.
  • Fixed: if a font disappears (is uninstalled) while Nisus Writer is running, we need to redisplay text using that font with the special highlight colors.
  • Fixed: images edited via LinkBack would incorrectly revert to prior state when a file was saved & reopened, even though the correct (most recent) LinkBack data was saved and loaded from the file.
  • Fixed: possible crash when assigning menu shortcuts for dynamically controlled menus (shortcut exists for menu that does not exist).


System Requirements
