Quality of Life Update | Zettelkasten Link Improvements

This update contains many smaller fixes and improvements of the app. The primary changes are a complete update of the various dependencies so that the app is up-to-date, including the most recent Electron framework and the most recent Pandoc. It also contains a few fixes for exports and translation improvements. Refer to the changelog below for a full list of changes.

Note that we have updated the build pipeline to Ubuntu 22.04, which means that any older Ubuntu-system likely won't be able to run this version of Zettlr.

Quality of Life Update

This update is the second one in our roadmap to exchange Zettlr's code signing certificate, meaning that it doesn't contain all that much new functionality. Instead, it is relevant mostly to Windows users. Please try to install this update. If it doesn't work, read on for a link to the one-week old 3.4.2 release. Thanks for bearing with us!

Bug Fixes | Performance Improvements

Update 3.4.1 fixes an issue with release 3.4.0 from yesterday.

Hello! With this final update of the year, we say goodbye to 2024 and wish you happy holidays and a successful start into 2025. This update focuses on fixing issues and improving the performance across the app. Most notably, we have continued to correct the issues that have been caused by 3.3.0 especially on Windows and a few less noticeable things.

Visual fixes | Better updates | Crash fixes

This update fixes issues across several areas of the app. Primarily, we have improved the rendering of elements in the editor, the usability of drag & drop and paste operations, the updater, and a few rare but severe bugs. More specifically, the image renderer is now more usable, and works and looks better. Also, we have improved some rendering issues with regard to blockquotes and highlights. Thirdly, the updater now provides both better feedback and checks once an hour, meaning that the app will notify you of new updates even if you rarely restart it. Also, it will notify you of an available update with a message box, rather than just the update icon in the toolbar. Lastly, users have reported and we have found a few issues that could freeze up individual editors, or the entire app, lead

This update focuses mainly on cosmetic fixes that pertain to the main editor and the display of your texts. However, it also includes a few bug fixes and other improvements.

Many users have complained that automatically creating files was no longer possible in version 3.2 due to a change we made. Our hopes were to clean up the code, but we didn't anticipate this. Sorry for the inconvenience that this change has caused. It should now work as expected again.

In addition, we've finally added a change that has been requested for quite some time: The app now remembers the widths of the sidebars across restarts, so you don't have

Resolved Data Loss Issues

When Zettlr v3.0.0 was released, we started receiving reports by users
mentioning that some files wouldn't properly save, potentially leading to data
loss. After searching for the underlying root cause, we have now identified it as
improper newline handling in files. Specifically, we have accidentally introduced
a bug that would render Zettlr incapable of proper
