What's new in Jer's Novel Writer 1.1.12
Oct 12, 2010
- Added Strikethrough menu item
- Removed depricated function from MergedCellOutlineView
- Bugs fixed:
- Sometimes opening apps like OpenOffice.org would cause Jer’s Novel Writer to crash. The system font manager is sending an update to JersNW that is a) not relevant and b) troublesome. I never got the problem to happen in Laboratory conditions, but I put in code to make JersNW ignore the messages.
