Qana Changelog

What's new in Qana 1.4

Jan 8, 2015
  • Bug fixes:
  • When an archive is opened by drag-and-drop, cancelling the key dialog now cancels the open operation instead of opening the archive without its contents.
  • The small undecorated window that is displayed during some potentially lengthy key operations (for example, while a content-encryption key is generated) is now displayed correctly under Linux.
  • Other changes:
  • Added the ability to associate the filename suffixes of Qana-encrypted files (the default is .qana) and Qana archives (the default is .qarc) with the application when running on Windows. The association is achieved by modifying the Windows Registry from an automatically generated PowerShell script, which requires Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 or Windows 8.x.
  • The text-wrapping command for text documents now preserves leading space at the start of each paragraph.

New in Qana 1.3 (Sep 9, 2014)

  • Bug fixes:
  • ug: After cancelling an attempt to close a document with the Close button ('X' icon) of the document's tab, the Close button became unresponsive.
  • Bug: In some circumstances, specifying an empty pathname for the key database prevented the Preferences dialog from being displayed.
  • Other changes:
  • If a key database has been specified but the file does not exist (as is the case when Qana is installed for the first time), a warning is displayed when the program starts up. When the program exits, a key database will be created at the location specified by the crypto.keyDatabase configuration property if the file does not exist.
  • The ability to choose the colour of text in the status panel has been added.
  • If you choose a non-existent directory with the Archive > Choose archive directory, the directory will be created.

New in Qana 1.2 (Mar 27, 2014)

  • Bug fixes:
  • If an attempt was made to add a file in the user's home directory to an archive when the "Display UNIX-style pathnames" preference (general.showUnixPathnames configuration property) was set to "Yes", the pathname of the file was formed incorrectly, resulting in a spurious error message and the failure to add the file to the archive.

New in Qana 1.1 (Sep 28, 2013)

  • Bug fixes:
  • If the general.showUnixPathnames configuration property was true, the user's home directory at the start of a pathname was not replaced with "~" when the pathname was displayed.
  • Other changes:
  • The default directory for the configuration file under Windows has been changed from %USERPROFILE%\.blankaspect\qana to %APPDATA%\blankaspect\qana, where %USERPROFILE% and %APPDATA% are system environment variables. (The default directory for the configuration file under Linux/UNIX is unchanged.) If you are updating Qana and you want to keep your old configuration, you should move the old configuration file to the new directory.
  • There is now an installer that can be used to install the contents of the executable distribution to user-specified directories. The installer will replace any existing file that has the same name as an installed file except for a configuration file, whose properties will be preserved if they conflict with the properties of the new file.
