You can now link documents in Lettera’s sidebar directly from the editor, using a completion panel. This is the first step toward a more complete linking system, which will later be extended with header linking and navigation menus. Before moving forward, we’d like to hear your feedback on this initial implementation.
Version 4178 also includes a number of bug fixes. The full changelog is below:
* Wiki links support
* Selection is now preserved at the end of the document on load
* Fixed an issue where the editor would not gain focus
* Improvements to the table of contents UI
* Various crash fixes
Thank you for testing Lettera and for your continued feedback.
At first glance, wikilinks look great. It’s finding files at the top level and in subfolders. The panel is responsive and attractive. This said, should it be selecting documents based on any character position? If I type “t”, it shows me every file that has t anywhere in the filename, rather than at the beginning, or, say, the beginning of any word.
Also, it would be great if it could create files by type [[filename]]. iA Writer does this, and it’s very practical.
What were the improvements to the ToC UI? I’m not sure what was there before. It “seems” 2 changes might be:
narrow underline beneath each header in ToC (if this is new, it looks better than before)
when clicking on a header in the ToC one scrolls down to relevant header, the header is briefly highlighted in yellow and then fades
Maybe I’m not remembering these 2 features, but if they are new they are great additions!
Having a beautiful (not just functional) ToC for this app. It’s a feature I’ve looked for over several years. iA Writer just started doing something like this (and it’s quite good) but this is an increased level of awesome.
