IDE

New Features

  • Added 'Path' entry to the information displayed when an Example Project is selected in the 'Choose a Project' panel. (74471)

  • Increased the Debugger by default font size to 11 points. (74646)

  • Now the IDE's Messages panel only displays the items matching the text typed in the Search control for better clarity. (74434)

  • Changes to the IDE's Debugger panel so it uses the same font size set for the Code Editor; and accesing the String debugger panel double clicking on the value row. Also other have been made to the String Debugger panel, removing the Edit Tab because now it is possible to set a new value for the string directly in the Text Tab, plus reorganizing the controls under the Text tab for a better use of the available space. (74437)

  • Added AllowPopover property to the Inspector Panel on DesktopChart to unify with WebChart. (74231)

  • Web: Layout editor preview won't render dark mode anymore in Web Projects, if the Supports Dark Mode option is turned off. (74807)

  • Web: Reduced the compile time when building Web projects. (71544)

  • Windows: Windows/Linux IDE: the default shortcut key for the Edit->Delete menu is now Del instead of Ctrl+Bksp on Windows and Bksp on Linux. (70398)

Resolved Issues

  • Plugin declared Delegates now have their compatibility flags setup properly. (74944)

  • Changes to Plugins are now more accurately tracked so that our Plugin caches are cleared when they need to be. We also do a bit less caching when Plugins are loaded, with the side benefit being slightly faster Plugin loading times. (74726)

  • Fixed alignment of the Clear button in the Messages panel on macOS. (74769)

  • Code Editor Context Menu Go To scrolls the code editor to the matching line. (66260)

  • The Pragma reminder to implement interface methods no longer has an extra space and the #Pragma Error part honors the coding preference for Applies Standard Case. (74718)

  • Running a project remotely, by using the menu shortcut, no longer adds extraneous characters to the code editor. (74679)

  • The deprecated MSSQLServerDatabase plugin is no longer packaged in the Plugins folder. If your project still depends on this class, the plugin still exists in the Database Plugin Resources folder, found in the Extras folder. (74446)

  • Fixed an OutOfBoundException when adding an image to the IDE Navigator via drag & drop. (74602)

  • Debugger now displays generic Object variables again. (74548)
