We are glad to announce the immediate availability of SnipSVG 1.4 and an updated version of HelpXplain 1.8.4.
SnipSVG 1.4
- Paste from clipboard: additional support for SVG data implemented. SnipSVG understands the ‘image/svg+xml’ format as well as plain text. If clipboard contains regular text starting with “<svg”, SnipSVG attempts to insert the SVG data as image.
- Insert SVG icon: problem with initial size calculation fixed (width and height always preferred the viewbox attribute)
- Favorites button: this button is now always enabled. When empty, it shows an info text with a link to the corresponding help topic.
- F1 help: more detailed context-sensitive help when pressing F1
- Formatting text: when applying a text format to a partially selected text, the caret sometimes vanished.
HelpXplain 1.8.4
- Creating screencasts: the layout and options dialog for screencasts includes a new option: Enlarge cursor icon. The cursor symbol of screencasts recorded on displays with high resolution (Windows scaling > 100%) had a different size than in screencasts recorded at scaling 100%.
- Paste text from clipboard: if the text on the clipboard contained HTML tags (brackets), the special characters were not escaped.
- Formatting text: if the text contained literal HTML code (e.g. “<b>Text</b>”), the content was taken as raw code, resulting in the removel of the brackets.
- Insert SVG icon: problem with initial size calculation fixed (width and height always preferred the viewbox attribute)
