What's new in JPdfBookmarks 2.5.1

Feb 8, 2011
  • This new release has some bugs fixed, the most important are the "Set destination" problem and the "Import bookmarks" problem.
  • It also adds a new feature to extract the links present in a page to bookmarks, for example you can extract the links in a "Table of Contents" page to the bookmarks panel, the problem is that I am still not happy at how it works, text is often wrong, and it cannot recreate the hierarchy of the links.
  • Anyway I have decided to insert it because it can be already useful even if after the extraction you surely need to adjust the bookmarks manually.
  • To activate the feature press the button indicated by the arrow in the picture.

New in JPdfBookmarks 2.4.3 (Oct 4, 2010)

  • added the possibility to select multiple bookmarks and drag them around using the mouse. It was more difficult than I thought to implement this feature and a lot of code has been modified and added, but I think the result is acceptable.
  • I was tempted to increase the version number to 2.5.0 because I find this new capability very important, but dragging bookmarks one at a time was already present so I have considered this as an extension to that feature.
  • If the bookmarks you are dragging are not contiguous and siblings, when you will drop them they will become such. The bookmarks remain sorted from top to bottom independently from which of the bookmarks you press on to start the dragging gesture. This is what I think is the most reasonable way to manage multiple dragging but any hint is appreciated as usual.
  • I have also changed the appearance of the last bookmark followed in the viewer to appear as grayed, I think it can be useful.

New in JPdfBookmarks 2.4.2 (Sep 18, 2010)

  • "Collapse All" action now correctly collapses inner nodes;
  • some custom indentation strings caused a wrong parsing of bookmarks from text files;
  • mouse cursor appearance when text selection is active not changing.

New in JPdfBookmarks 2.2.1 (May 31, 2010)

  • This release is in response to some complaints about how the user interface of previous versions behaved, especially under Linux or with low screen resolutions, thank you for reporting this problem.
  • The bookmarks panel on the left was not shrinkable more than the width of the associated toolbar, and the main toolbars took too much space on some platforms.
  • In this version the bookmarks toolbar is positioned vertically next to the bookmarks container that is now free to shrink without problems.
  • There is also a "Toolbars Manager" accessible from the Options panel in the Tool menu, or right clicking on a free spot of one of the toolbars, from there you can choose which toolbars you want to visualize in the user interface (default setting is to show all toolbars).
