Concerning Recent Changes...

The Timeline file type has been completely re-written. New features include direct card editing, multi-card selection and file conversion. Convert your Timelines into Builders scenes with just a few quick clicks. Use the 'Preferences' dialog to select your preferred card width and height as individual cards sizes are no longer variable.

The Storyboard file type has been completely re-written. New features include direct card editing, multi-card selection, a 'Hide Images' preference, and double-click Chapter opening. Images are now displayed in thumbnail format, fitted to the given card size. Use the 'Preferences' dialog to select your preferred card width and height as individual cards sizes are no longer variable. Storyboards now allow the user to create and open Chapters simply by double-clicking any card title. Double-click the color indexing bar or image section of each card to change that feature.

The Sequence file type has also been completely re-written. New features include direct item editing, thumbnails images, multi-item selection, full-screen editing, and a 'Hide Images' preference. Use the 'Sequence' menu to change many cards simultaneously. Use the 'Preferences' dialog to select your preferred item widths.

A command-line option has been added to Liquid Story Binder, allowing users to open any LSBXE book directly from a batch file or shortcut. Simply include the chosen book's directory, enclosed in quotes, as an argument. For added convenience, a `Create Desktop Shortcut' menu option has also been added to the main 'Library' menu.

An assortment of Header / Footer tags have been added to the Print Preview dialog. These tags are based on information entered into the 'Properties' dialog found under the main 'Library' menu. Book, document and date tags have also been added.

Planners now allow for the automatic creation and opening of file types other than Chapters. Choose your preferred file sorting type using the Planner's 'Preference' menu. Use this preference when outlining -- to quickly create and open Checklists or Outlines before writing your actual Chapters. Also, try using a Planner to sort Dossiers or Builders.

It is now possible to exclude current Chapter titles when numbering Chapters during Manuscript Building.

Choose 'Sort Paragraphs' from the Chapter/Builder/Journal 'Paragraphs' menu to sort the currently selected paragraphs alphabetically.

The Thesaurus window no longer holds focus, allowing users to switch windows and change content while the Thesaurus window remains open. The Thesaurus window has also been re-designed. Hide the alternative example sentences using the 'Simplified Thesaurus' preference. ‘Previous Word’ and ‘Next Word’ icons have also been added.
