Release Notes | Mon, 10/12/2009 - 06:00

Notes: 
  • The Equation Editor component has been upgraded. Any OEM customers specifying their own license for the Equation Editor will need new license keys from Design Science.
  • Please contact Ephox technical support for more details.
  • Padding and Margins are not yet rendered on inline tags so Background CSS rendering is not 100% correct.
  • In particular background images are rendered in the correct position relative to the text but text is still in the wrong position.
  • The following Enterprise Edition features are now available for Professional Edition customers:
    • Import Word Document
    • Auto Correct
    • Thesaurus
  • Option + F2 is now used to focus the EditLive! menu bar on OSX instead of the Windows-style Option + nmemonic
New Features: 
  • New plugins are available for all customers by adding <plugin /> elements to the plugins section of the configuration file:
    • Auto Save plugin, using <plugin name=”autosave”/>. Once activated it will prompt to load existing content after a browser crash. Use <menuItem name=”RestoreAutosave”> to access the dialog manually.
    • RTF paste support on Apple OSX, using <plugin name=”rtfpaste”/>. Pasting rich text on OSX will be converted to HTML in EditLive!.
    • Auto Link plugin, using <plugin name=”autolink”/>. After typing a whitespace character the plugin will check if the preceding text looks like a link, and will convert it if required. Supported options are email (text with an @ symbol), and URL (text that starts with www. http:// https:// ftp:// or file:/).
    • Insert HTML fragment, using <plugin name=”InsertHTML”/>. This allows the insertion of HTML code without allowing the user access to code view. Use <menuItem name=”InsertHTML”/> to add the dialog to a menu, or <toolbarButton name=”InsertHTML”/> to put this in a toolbar.
  • New plugins are available for Enterprise Edition customers by adding <plugin /> elements to the plugins section of the configuration file:
    • Inline Commenting, using <plugin name=”commenting”/>. This extends Track Changes to allow commenting on sections of text. Use <menuItem name=”AddComment”> and <menuItem name=”RemoveAllComments”> to add the commenting functionality to menus.
    • Template browser, using <plugin name=”templateBrowser”/>. Sample templates have been provided in the <templates> element of the sample configuration file. Use <menuItem name=”InsertTemplate”> to access the dialog.
  • New UI for toolbars and toolbar buttons on Windows
    • This can be turned off by using the <wysiwygEditor useEphoxLookAndFeel=”false” /> configuration file setting
  • HTML “dir” attribute now supported on block-level elements
  • Excel import is now available. Pasting options are available in the <excelImport> configuration file element
  • <images /> configuration element now has preferredHeight and preferredWidth attributes, to override the default 800×600 maximum size of inserted images with Image Editing enabled
  • Tracked Formatting Changes are now renderered as a dotted underline, rather than a background color
  • Background CSS is now rendered on inline tags such as hyperlinks
  • Added API to retrieve the document and body without uploading images
  • The Equation Editor Component has been upgraded to the new MathFlow SDK
  • Ability to specify DPI of MathML equations via the configuration xml file, e.g. <mathml dpi=”72″ />
  • Pressing Enter now applies image cropping
  • Pressing Escape now cancels image cropping
  • EditableSectionCSS load-time property now defaults to true. This means that, by default, Inline Editing sections will now display using the same CSS styles as the editor content
  • It is now possible to add multiple PasteFilters using addPasteFilter method. setPasteFilter is deprecated, addPasteFilter should be used instead.
  • <sourceEditor errorDialog=’simple’> is now supported when using the runtime getBody() and getDocument() JavaScript methods. If there is an error, no callback is performed.
