Qana Changelog

What's new in Qana 2.3

Apr 1, 2021
  • The directories of the key database and the seed file now default to the configuration directory, which makes it easier to keep the three auxiliary files -- the configuration file, the key database and the seed file -- in the same directory.
  • The unavailable bits of the entropy sources in the preferences dialog are now shown as disabled.

New in Qana 2.2 (Sep 16, 2020)

  • Changes:
  • The purpose of this release is to synchronise library code across all Blank
  • Aspect projects. It has no significant changes from the previous release.

New in Qana 2.1 (Nov 5, 2017)

  • Since Java 9, if the 'Select text when focus is gained' preference has the value 'Yes', the selection of a text field remains highlighted after the field loses keyboard focus.

New in Qana 2.0 (Nov 3, 2017)

  • Only one instance of Qana may run at any one time. This is to prevent a new instance of the application from being launched each time a user opens a file that is associated with Qana from, for example, a file browser.
  • The configuration properties 'split.filePartLengthLowerLimit' and 'split.filePartLengthUpperLimit' have been renamed to 'split.filePartLengthLowerBound' and 'split.filePartLengthUpperBound' respectively.

New in Qana 1.4 (Jan 6, 2015)

  • Bug fixes:
  • When an archive is opened by drag-and-drop, cancelling the key dialog now cancels the open operation instead of opening the archive without its contents.
  • Other changes:
  • Added the ability to associate the filename suffixes of Qana-encrypted files (the default is .qana) and Qana archives (the default is .qarc) with the application when running on Windows. The association is achieved by modifying the Windows Registry from an automatically generated PowerShell script, which requires Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 or Windows 8.x.
  • The text-wrapping command for text documents now preserves leading space at the start of each paragraph.

New in Qana 1.3 (Sep 9, 2014)

  • Bug fixes:
  • Bug: After cancelling an attempt to close a document with the Close button ('X' icon) of the document's tab, the Close button became unresponsive.
  • Bug: In some circumstances, specifying an empty pathname for the key database prevented the Preferences dialog from being displayed.
  • Other changes:
  • If a key database has been specified but the file does not exist (as is the case when Qana is installed for the first time), a warning is displayed when the program starts up. When the program exits, a key database will be created at the location specified by the crypto.keyDatabase configuration property if the file does not exist.
  • The ability to choose the colour of text in the status panel has been added.
  • If you choose a non-existent directory with the Archive > Choose archive directory, the directory will be created.
