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.

In the upcoming version, I decided to focus a bit on the synchronization engine. One noticeable change is the introduction of file icons to the conflicts view, and another is the introduction of the ability to preview files (remote and local) during conflicts resolving. In the example below it is a preview of a markdown file, but the preview will be available for all Keepmark supported formats.

Since today a new Keepmark -1.30.0 is available. It’s hard to call this release with a specific feature, because it contains many of them. Among others: a new default markdown editor, a new workspace selection component (with a quick access to the recently used ones), or a pinned document details panel, as well as other minor fixes. The work doesn’t stop, and I’ m slowly starting to plan what’s to come in the next one.
