Latest changes in TExtract 11
v11.07:
- The application of the maximum number of references has been improved. When you accept an entry that has more references than the maximum, only the most significant references are accepted. See this video for the details.
- The edit bar in ContextView now contains an Add checkbox, similar to the edit bar in the IndexView panel. By default, Add is not checked, and an edit replaces the original term occurrence. If the original term occurrence was accepted, to keep that as well check Add. Adjust All or This if needed.
- The ContextView panel shows more clearly whether the text panel or the edit bar is active, using border highlighting and blinking of the active term or the cursor. This is relevant since the effect of the Enter key, Backspace, and the left and right arrow keys depend on the active context.
- When merging entries in IndexView, existing acceptances are preserved.
- At higher display resolution, when adjusting text size using Ctrl + mousewheel, control positions were not always correct. This has been solved.
- Text extracted from tables and figures could in some cases be scrambled. This has been corrected.
- Several detail improvements were made to the editing and formatting procedures.
v11.06:
- Indexing on paragraph identifiers and section numbers has been simplified. When a project is set up TExtract recognizes identifiers in the margins and prompts whether you want to use these as locators. For details see Help index entry "paragraph identifiers."
- Handling of emphasized and annotated references in ranges has been improved. Emphasized or annotated references in a range are now placed after the range. When using paragraph IDs as locators, paragraph ranges are no longer broken by intervening other types of IDs (tables, figures, etc.).
- You can have entries referring to italic or bold text automatically set in italic or bold. In IndexView see Extra > Automated emphasis.
- When using .docx input to create an embedded index, the project now supports emphasis in the same way it does in PDF projects. Emphasized text is shown as such in the editor and the commands to copy emphasis to emphasize entries are supported.
- The index import procedure has been updated. The match quality has improved, the editor better supports navigating and editing imported references, the log file is more informative and the Help info has been updated. For details see Help index item “importing a plain text index.”
- The PDF viewer in the ContextView panel has been updated. It’s leaner and faster and reponds to more navigation commands. Page navigating in the PDF panel now syncs the text panel page.
v11.01 - v11.05:
- Endnotes and footnotes are detected when a project is set up. You can adjust how they are handled (use page references, annotate, exclude). In the ContextView panel see menu item Extra.
- You can now index a set of PDFs together and export indexes separately. When editing is ready press Export, press F4, then set Separate indexes. See Help for details.
- Colored text can be tagged, similar to bold and italic. This e.g. supports indexing colored terms only. See Project > Preferences > PDF processing. See the Help there for details.
- A command has been added in ContextView to exclude all page heads. See Select > Exclude text > Page heads.
- The authority file entry syntax has been simplified. See the Help there.
- You can delete all entries and start manual indexing from scratch.
- After replacing a document and using Create Index to index new text, in IndexView column n only marks accepted entries that have references to new text. (It used to mark unaccepted entries as well, which was not really useful.)
- The Yank list supports Ctrl + comma to add the selected item as a subheading. The yank list can be resized. When importing a yank list the imported items are added; the original items remain. Right-click the yank list to see commands.
- A formatting preference has been added for placing the comma after a quote to get European style “entry”, 123 instead of American style “entry,” 123. See Formatting preferences > Entries > Spacing and punctuation.
- Many more still minor improvements were made.
