What's new in this version:

- Improve the Open AI assistant by providing a multiline control for the prompt. This allows us to prepare a more convenient prompt, especially in some circumstances, like when we want to translate certain more or less large texts that can include multiple lines. Make other minor improvements, like trimming the prompt before sending it to Open AI.

What's new in this version:

- Introduce a new Icon Picker dialog for the IDE. The new Icon Picker dialog enhance the previous one in several ways! We can now get listed all the free icons of the latest version of Font Awesome (regular, solid, etc.). We can now also search for icons, but, not using the CSS classes of the icons: on the contrary, we use now all the search strings prepared by Font Awesome per every icon. This helps a lot in order to find the appropriate icon that we want to use, by filtering the icons that do not match our search criteria. Additionally the new Icon Picker dialog allows us to to determine the size of the icon that we wanted. We can also now choose one of the available icons animations to be optionally used. And finally we can choose one of the available icon rotations to be optionally used.
- Remove the "Fonts" folder from the installation. The "Fonts" folder contains the Font Awesome font files for Windows used by the previous Icons Picker dialog, but, these fonts are no more needed, because the new Icon Picker dialog do not needed it. Additionally, there is a process to "register" the referred fonts in Windows that is no more required, so this process has been removed too.

What's new in this version:

- After successfully adding a new app function, we now select the new app function in the functions list instead of selecting the first one. This change can be considered a bug fix since now we can add a new function and, just after that, add some arguments to that function without selecting the added function in the functions list. This helps us avoid adding the new argument to the wrong function: the first one in the list, which is not what we wanted. We want to add the argument to the new function, so this is what happens now: by selecting the new function in the functions list, the new argument is added to the right function.
- Fix an exception error if we try to search for new product releases when there is no internet connection. Now in this specific case, we get the right and expected error message (no host found; check the internet) instead of a weird exception that does not offer clear information about what is happening.

What's new in this version:

- Add the AutoClose property in the Dropdown control. The AutoClose property can be used to determine the auto close behaviour of the Dropdown control. The property have four possible values: "true" (by default), means the dropdown menu will be closed when the user press the dropdown button, a dropdown menu item or ouside the button and the menu. "inside", means the dropdown menu will be closed when the user press the dropdown button or a dropdown menu item. "outside", means the dropdown menu will be closed when the user press the dropdown button or outside the button and the menu. "false", means the dropdown menu will be closed only when the user press the dropdown button.
- Add the new AutoClose property of the Dropdown control in the contextual help file, providing the appropriate description and samples of use. Add the AutoClose property of the Dropdown control in the Editor Quick Code List. Add a new app constant "app.dropdownAutoClose" which contains all the possible values for the AutoClose property of the Dropdown control. Document this new app constant in the right help topic and add into the Editor Quick List. Add a new Dropdown2 sample app, which show the usage of all the possible values of the AutoClose property of the Dropdown control.

What's new in this version:

- Now the BAT files generated by DecSoft App Builder intended to compile apps with Apache Cordova, check for the existence of Apache Cordova, and, advise the user if the "cordova" command cannot be found, informing them also about the right URL of the Apache Cordova website to be ready with the selected platform. This is particularly useful for newbie users, who can find the "command not found" message from the console a bit annoying when executing one of these BAT files if Apache Cordova is not properly installed. Now these users (and others too) are properly informed about what happened and are pointed to the right documentation.

What's new in this version:

- Mark the app.setVar() method as deprecated, that is, remove it from the Editor Quick Code List and the documentation, in favor of the new app.setReactiveVar() method. The app.setVar() continue to be available to use, but, it's recommended to move on to the new referred method to set app global reactive variables.
- Add the new app.setReactiveVar() method, which is the indicated to set app global reactive variables. This method replace the app.setVar() method, which continue to be available for compatibility purposes. Advanced users can also directly use the "app.store" property to set app global reactive variables like: app.store.MyVar = MyValue. Please take a look at the product help in order to understand the difference between app global reactive and app global non reactive variables.
- Add the new app.getReactiveVar() method, which can be used to retrieve the value of previously established app global reactive variables. Advanced users can perfectly use the app.store property to retrieve these variables like: app.store.MyVar, however, note that this method offer the ability to establish a default value to be returned if the variable did not exists. Please take a look at the product help in order to understand the difference between app global reactive and app global non reactive variables.
- Add the new method app.unsetReactiveVar(), which can be used to delete an existing app global reactive variable, so we can save precious resources for the app. Please take a look at the product help in order to understand the difference between app global reactive and app global non reactive variables.
- Add the new method app.setNonReactiveVar(), which is the indicated to set app global non reactive variables. We may need a global variable for the app, but, not required to be shown in the app interface, so we can use this method to create this kind of global variables, instead of reactive global variables, which consume a bit more resources. Advanced users can also directly use the "window.store" property to set app global non reactive variables like: window.store.MyVar = MyValue. Please take a look at the product help in order to understand the difference between app global reactive and app global non reactive variables.
- Add the new app.getNonReactiveVar() method, which can be used to retrieve the value of previously established app global non reactive variables. Advanced users can perfectly use the window.store property to retrieve these variables like: window.store.MyVar, however, note that this method offer the ability to establish a default value to be returned if the variable did not exists. Please take a look at the product help in order to understand the difference between app global reactive and app global non reactive variables.
- Add the new method app.unsetNonReactiveVar(), which can be used to delete an existing app global non reactive variable, so we can save precious resources for the app. Please take a look at the product help in order to understand the difference between app global reactive and app global non reactive variables.
- Add the previous referred new methods into the editor Quick Code List, and, update the product help in order to incorporate these new methods and some usage samples. Modify various existing samples apps in order to use the new methods instead the app.setVar() one or create by ourself a window.store variable, which is not created by the app to be available for us to store the app global non reactive variables.

What's new in this version:

- We discover a piece of code in the app JavaScript template which correspond with certain Web Extensions related code that we are not using anymore from some releases ago. Probably this piece of code don't cause any trouble, but, may be yes, talking about the Google Chrome and may others, so, we decide to remove that piece of code and publish a new release to avoid any possible errors which can occur due to that piece of code.

What's new in this version:

- Add in the program behaviour options a new button (inside a Configuration groupbox container) that can be used to restart the apps dock panels layout, the program dock panels layout and the program configuration at the same time. By pressing this button what we do is to initialize the apps dock panels layout, the program dock panels layout and the program configuration (at the same time), like if we start DecSoft App Builder for the first time. A confirmation is needed and the program need to be restarted when this new button is pressed. The product help has been enhanced by describing this new feature.

The IDE tool which can create app BAT files to be compiled with the CLI compiler has been enhanced to add this new argument too. This new optional argument of the DecSoft App Builder CLI compiled can be used to compile the app in a fresh way, by removing, if exists, the "__cache" folder. The product help has been enhanced by describing this new argument and provide the right new screenshots of the CLI compiler and the Create app BAT tool dialog.
