  • FIXED: node statistics was incorrectly classifying selected node always as named node
  • storing and loading snippets works also in list mode (taking first selected node)
  • Scintilla: added JSON lexer (different colors for keys and values, invalid syntax in red, also underline for links); previous lexer (C++) is left as default (Settings/Text View)

New in JSONedit 0.9.26.0 (Oct 22, 2017)

  • added setting for string separating name from value in objects (default: " : "); together with indentation string this is supposed to allow to reduce VCS delta for files edited with JSONedit
  • FIXED: if last character of indent string was other than space (e.g. single tab was used) generated JSON contained extra newlines
  • updated Lua to version 5.3 (as in tSIP) and added some custom Lua functions
  • added Lua event mechanism (basically copied from tSIP), there is single "on file save" event at the moment with the purpose of extra formatting / postprocessing

New in JSONedit 0.9.22.0 (Feb 13, 2017)

  • Tools menu: experimental, very relaxed pseudo-JSON parser, alternative method of prototyping structures for further pasting into main editor
  • FIXED: no brace matching for JSON text view (incorrectly selected Lua highlighter since 0.9.16)

  • FIXED: default directory for file open dialog was not updated if file was loaded using drag-and-drop

New in JSONedit 0.9.21.0 (Dec 26, 2016)

  • FIXED: after Expand All / Expand # levels tree was scrolled to last expanded node - often seemingly random place

New in JSONedit 0.9.16.0 (Feb 4, 2016)

  • Scintilla-based editor for Lua (previously used with Script.dll plugin for tSIP softphone)
  • Lua scripting window is available from Tools menu (apart from previous array generator available in tree context menu)
  • optional preprocessing of name/value entered in tree view with Lua

New in JSONedit 0.9.15.1 Testing (Nov 20, 2015)

  • fixed uint64 entry (e.g. 18446744073709551615 = 2^64 - 1) from value edit on right panel
  • fixed problem (apparently bug in sscanf TC++ implementation, tested for comparison MinGW behaves correctly) with sscanf and negative (only negative) values with more than 32 significants bits (with TC++ more significants bits are all set to 1)
  • fixed/restored out-of-range indication (i.e. red color for edit box) for entered integers / unsigned integers that don't fit in 64 bits
  • more precise error location info when parsing/validating text (moving cursor to the column from parser error location - useful for unformatted invalid JSON)

New in JSONedit 0.9.15.0 (Nov 14, 2015)

  • FIXED issue with incorrect JSON generated for high-precision float point values (1000000000000000.0, 1000000000000000.1 => "1000000000000000.")
  • minor fix making double used consequently instead of float

  • settings: option to automaticaly activate in-place value editor (same as assigned to F4) for newly added nodes

New in JSONedit 0.9.14.0 (Sep 30, 2015)

  • log: added execution time measurement for basic operations (parsing and generating JSON, building tree)
  • checking source file for UTF BOM:
  • option to skip UTF-8 BOM before passing to parser
  • files written to disk by editor are always without BOM - it appears that in many applications UTF-8 without BOM is required
  • notifying that UTF-16 and UTF-32 are not supported if file appears to use these encodings
  • in-place value editor for tree - assigned to F4 key:
  • complementary to editing node name with F2
  • works with primitive values (string, int, real, boolean)
  • string value editing (same as with name editing) is mostly limited to sigle-line text, i.e. in-place editor silently displays multiple lines as single one not allowing inserting newlines (although existing newlines are preserved)
  • for boolean value "0" and "1" are accepted as well as "false" and "true"
  • smarter auto-expand (expanding nodes when new text is loaded):
  • new setting, number of levels to auto-expand, 1 (default, only root expanded) ... 5
  • if number of levels to auto-expand is higher than 1 auto-expanding is continued recursively but stops if number of visible nodes would be higher than 30

New in JSONedit 0.9.13.0 (Sep 22, 2015)

  • FIXED: not working since 0.9.7.8 "Paste as sibling from clipboard" (thanks for reporting to Darwin Sanoy)

  • tree view: buttons to move elements of the object up/down (available only if sorting is disabled)

New in JSONedit 0.9.11.1 Testing (Sep 17, 2015)

  • long-awaited: option to keep object elements order preserved (Settings/JSON, by default old behavior is kept, that is object elements are sorted alphabetically by name)
  • auto-expanding root node after switching from text to tree if text was changed and after pasting text as root from clipboard

New in JSONedit 0.9.11.0 (Sep 1, 2015)

  • Array generator: added CSV import to tree context menu (2 out of 3 conversion styles available)
  • View/Line wrap (or Ctrl+W): toggle line wrapping for text view

New in JSONedit 0.9.9.0 (Aug 25, 2014)

  • Improved keyboard-only workflow and few other minor tweaks, thanks to Brother Gabriel-Marie for suggestions and testing:
  • configuration: added option to disable Tabs in tree view edit controls (use Tabs to move focus rather than character),
  • added Up/Down buttons for reordering array elements (+ replacing "Node name" with "Node index" for array elements),
  • added *.txt filter to open and save dialogs,
  • configuration: added option to select text in edit control on entering,
  • disabled TabStop property for TPageControl in editor (most likely just unnecessary step when cycling through controls with Tab),
  • assigned shortcuts for "Add child" (Ctrl+H) and "Add siblings" (Ctrl+B) actions in tree view,
  • settings: added "running with admin rights required" note next to button associating application with *.json files,

  • Tools: C++ class generator (experimental)

New in JSONedit 0.9.7.12 (May 26, 2014)

  • FIXED: Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V shortcuts action now depends on currently active component, i.e. it copies text when edit field is active but copies whole nodes when tree is active (thanks to Michael for reporting regression)
  • FIXED: missing focus when switching from text view to tree view and back
  • Scintilla caret width increased to 2 pixels

New in JSONedit 0.9.7.9 (Mar 10, 2014)

  • F2 in tree view is assigned to in-place node rename
  • new option for JSON parsing: treating control characters (U+0000 through U+001F) inside strings as errors (stricter parsing)

New in JSONedit 0.9.7.3 (Mar 11, 2013)

  • FIXED: comment edit control color not reverting back to normal after entering incorrectly escaped comment and switching node,
  • FIXED: parsing/validating JSON: generating error when non-white characters are found after closing bracket (typically due to misplaced closing bracket in the middle of text), thanks to Toshiyuki for reporting,

  • FIXED: disappearing node type selector when reducing window size,
  • added array generator using embedded Lua interpreter.

New in JSONedit 0.9.4.2 (Jan 22, 2013)

  • fixes related to multi-monitor environments: Position changed to poOwnerFormCenter, modified standard dialogs behavior; thanks to Peter for the suggestion

New in JSONedit 0.9.4.0 (Jan 22, 2013)

  • added option to keep names of the nodes copied through clipboard (additional JSON wrapper is holding node name); by default copy/paste still uses plain JSON representing node; thanks to Peter for the suggestion. This option is limited to copying from/to JSONedit. If two JSONedit instances are used as source and destination it has to be enabled in both instances to work correctly.
