The following changes were made in this PAWriter version 91 dated 29 January 2010:
The following changes were made in this PAWriter version 91 dated 29 January 2010:
- GEDCOM note import now removes extraneous control characters.
- Previously, the list of people displayed when the Find Person button is clicked (or command-F is pressed or Person menu > Find Person by Name is chosen) was limited to 30,000 people. If more people were on file, only those with the same first letter of their surnames were displayed, and it was necessary to type another first letter and press tab to see people whose surnames start with that letter. Now all people on file are displayed, regardless of how many there are. You can still type the first few letters (or more) of the surname and press tab to jump to the first person in the list whose surname starts with those letters.
- The same is true of the list of tagged people displayed when the Find Tagged button is clicked (or option-command-F is pressed or Person menu > Find Tagged Person by Name is chosen).
- The same is true of the list of names displayed when Edit menu > Copy Name, Tag menu > Tag People whose Names Contain, or Tag Menu > Tag People with a Place Containing is chosen, as well as for the list of citations displayed when Citation menu > Edit Citations is chosen.
- The Reference Guide was updated to remove references to the above list limitations, and to add an explanation of marriage intentions to the topic Basic Data Entry > Dates.
- As stated in the Reference Guide: "To ensure HTML reports, HTML web sites and Show Scrapbook in the file menu work properly, make sure your picture file names use only alphanumeric characters [i.e., plain ASCII letters and digits], dashes (-), underscores (_), periods (.) and spaces. It's also OK to use plus signs (+) and dollar signs ($), but their usage is generally rare." (See BNF definitions of alpha, digit and safe characters in a URL in www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt, page 19, to which is added a space character.) Now, if you add a picture file to a wallet whose name contains a character other than those specified above, or open such a picture file in a wallet, a warning will be displayed pointing out that character. Such a picture file may or may not be displayed when referenced in HTML.
- Titles at the head of HTML reports that contain non-ASCII characters are now displayed correctly.
