In the upcoming version I am focusing more on features this time. One of the biggest changes will be the introduction of a new view/module - Dashboard. The purpose of the module is to present the general status of the selected repository, upcoming tasks, recently used and new documents, or progress on the most important projects. The view will be configurable by the user by selecting widgets and their location on screen.

It’s time to release a bunch of fixes and improvements I’ve collected in the new Keepmark 1.32.0. Among the changes there are 2 new features - the ability to merge documents, and the ability to open documents using configured external tools. The last one can be quite a powerful and interesting tool to extend Keepmark’s functionality on your own (e.g. by attaching your own external scripts and applications there).

I finally finished an idea that was born some time ago and which resulted as a popup with actions and document sharing. I have enhanced this popup with the ability to add custom external tools to it. This will allow users to add additional actions to documents that will be handled by external tools.

In the upcoming release I decided to focus mainly on finishing and polishing the existing functionality. When one of the users suggested a feature, I decided to modify my plan a bit and so the ability to merge documents will appear. I also lacked such functionality, so it seemed like a good time to add it.

Today’s release doesn’t contain as many features as the previous ones (as you can see by the lower activity on the blog). I’ve mainly focused on improvements in the synchronization mechanism - including a preview of files with conflicts. I have also made changes to the application launch mechanism (a new launcher was created), and started working on keyboard shortcuts, but I do not consider this topic as finished.
