New Tree View right-click command "Add/Edit 'text' child (using dialog)" makes for friendlier editing in some situations than F1
New 64-bit versions of TLex and tlTerm and tlDatabase, on both Windows and macOS! (Catalina-ready)
[Preview] Popup menu for 'settings' button near top right of Preview Area: Add new user-local toggle option 'Preview masked entries always' that, if enabled [default], shows a preview of 'what a masked-out entry *would* look like IF visible in that styleset' under the "Entry hidden/excluded by styleset mask (edition selection). Use F2 checkboxes (or F1 selection list) to edit edition selection. Use top right of Preview Area to change selected styleset/edition to view" message
[Filter (F5)] New filter "match node if 'is-empty'" (element node that has no child elements and no attribute values filled in)
New Tools/Options (or Mac Preferences) local user setting "/EditOptions/DisableAutoSortElements" allows you to turn off element auto-sorting
[Entry List MRU] (Most-Recently-Used Entries) List: Add double-click to force re-select of clicked entry (if already selected)
[Online Publishing Exporter] Four new publish export options in the 'File / Export online publishing' dialog (NB:
* AudioTag [default 'true'] Indicates to export sounds using the newer HTML5 'audio' tag instead of the old img+JavaScript approach
* AudioTagControls [default 'true'] Adds the play/pause etc. controls on the HTML5 control
* AudioTagNoDownload [default 'true'] If 'AudioTag' option on, tries to hide the 'Download' option from the control
* OverridePathSounds [Optional] This can be either an absolute URL for the path of the sound files, e.g.:
https://yourserver.com/sounds/
or a relative path on the Web server, e.g.:
/sounds/
(There is no real difference between the above two for visitors to the site itself, but if the entries are to be made available via other sites through an API server then the absolute URL https://yourserver.com/sounds/ is better as the sounds will work for API clients - if using a relative URL then the browser will try to locate the sounds on the client website which will not work)
NOTE: During publish exports, the OverridePathSounds option CAN be different from the OverridePathImages export option, BUT there is still only one single folder setting in Dictionary/Properties (used during editing in TLex or tlTerm). So locally in TLex/tlTerm your sound files and image files should be in the same folder for the Preview Area to work, but they can go to separate folders on the webserver itself now during publishes by using different settings for these two options.
NB NB If one has existing dictionaries that are set up to use the 'old system' of an 'img' tag with JavaScript on the serverside to handle it, then whoever does a new publish with the new publish will HAVE TO set AudioTag to FALSE/OFF (as it's default to TRUE) during exports or existing sounds will break on those old dictionaries.

New in TLex Suite 10.1.0.2195 Alpha (Dec 10, 2018)

New Duplicate Finder helper tool
[Main Entry List] Entry List right-click menu: Add "Load tagged entries" command to force-load just the tagged set of entries, for e.g. ODBC etc.
[Tree View] Added new right-click menu commands to 'Collapse all children' and 'Expand all children'
[Sorting] New configurable sort methods significantly expand the available sort methods available in TLex: ICU local (region, variant) sorting, and ICU custom-rules-based sorting [alpha][Windows-only currently]
[alpha][Search Index] New option "/App" "UseBetaSearchIndex": Use new (~Aug 2018) search index functionality to speed up searches (this functionality is in development and still being tested - if you experience problems, please turn this OFF again) [May require restart of application]. This can significantly speed up searches in e.g. the Word/Excel Integration tool (or Multi-Document Smart-Search), but does make opening documents a bit slower as it generates a search index when you open your document. [Currently Windows-only]
[Filter (F5)] New filter conditions: Is-not-element (find element type nodes that are any but the selected type); IsFirstChildNode and IsLastChildNode (find nodes with no previous-sibling and no next-sibling respectively ... this is more likely to be useful when combined with other filter types using the 'node intersection'/'All on same node' option, e.g. you could do things like 'find senses with something other than a translation equivalent as the first child', etc.)
[Filter (F5)] New (error check) filter conditions: "[Ref-to-sense] Unknown cross-reference target sense ('UNKNOWN')" and "[Ref-to-entry] Unknown cross-reference target entry" (these 'shouldn't happen' under normal circumstances, but may in some cases)
New shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+Enter for 'Tag range' in entry list
[alpha] Linked-Mode: You can run Tlex or tlTerm and tlCorpus in a special 'linked mode' (launch it from the Tools menu in TLex/tlTerm by selecting 'Launch tlCorpus linked') where they can talk to one another, then you can do things like launch a tlCorpus search straight from TLex/tlTerm (e.g. via right-clicking in the Lemma List or Term List or Tree View, or from the Word/Excel integration popup etc.), or right-click on a word anywhere in the search results in tlCorpus and send it to TLex/tlTerm as a new entry, or right-click on a line in the tlCorpus search results and select to auto-add it to the selected sense or term as a usage example in TLex/tlTerm etc.
[Smart References] Add new output/display setting "Show x-ref sense numbers always even if all senses referenced" (from Preview Area toolbar 'config menu'): Show target sense numbers of cross-referenced senses always, even if only one target sense, or all visible target senses are referenced [Setting is saved local to computer, not in document] [Default: ON]
New optional 'color renderer' mode for search results. Can change color scheme. Also highlights primary/secondary-level sort words in bold (this can be toggled on/off). Can also toggle display of word before/after number. [beta]
Can now right-click on any word in search results (if using new 'renderer'); the right-click menu includes all common standard commands for the right-clicked word, e.g. launch new search, open Web search or Web Image search for the word, auto-insert into Word or Excel, copy to clipboard, etc. [beta/alpha]
Pause/Resume Search button
New Section Editor via 'Dictionary/Edit sections' menu (or 'Termbase/Edit sections' for tlTerm, or 'Database/Edit sections' for tlDatabase)
Small fixes for support for multi-section tlTerm documents
Various improvements/fixes to font usage stats, including better ability to find/fix missing fonts
New 'File/Compare/Merge as formatted output text' compare/merge based on formatted-output text of entries rather than data [beta]
[XSLT][beta] Can now optionally transform XML output with XSLT (for all three of the main XML exporters). Use a file named after the current styleset (but with .xslt extension) in the output folder (2nd or 3rd or further passes can be specified by adding "(2)", "(3)" etc. to the filename).
New exporter "File/Export/XML (tree / raw) as one file"
[tlCorpus] Web Crawler: New checkbox option to choose whether to download image files encountered while spidering
[Filter (F5)] 'Advanced filters' [Depth Filter] and [Nested Depth Filter] find nodes at a given depth/level (or nesting depth relative to same element type) [added ~2015]

Tentative new line of alpha test builds with more fixes for high-DPI fine-resolution displays (note, use 'View/HTML provider/CEF3' option)
New Duplicate Finder helper tool
[Filter (F5)] New filter conditions: Is-not-element (find element type nodes that are any but the selected type); IsFirstChildNode and IsLastChildNode (find nodes with no previous-sibling and no next-sibling respectively ... this is more likely to be useful when combined with other filter types using the 'node intersection'/'All on same node' option, e.g. you could do things like 'find senses with something other than a translation equivalent as the first child', etc.)

[TLex/tlTerm] The Word popup tool now also displays and searches for the value of the currently active cell in Excel, in addition to that from Word. It also shows the new 'command popup menus' when clicking on either of these. [Windows only]
New: Microsoft Excel Integration: "Insert into Excel (if open)" command on search results right-click menu [Windows only]
Search results right-click menu has new general 'Text Commands' submenu
[TLex/tlTerm] New: Microsoft Excel Integration: Add "Insert into Excel (if open)" to the new general 'Text Commands' right-click menu that automatically inserts the text (e.g. term/translation etc.) into the active cell of Microsoft Excel, if open [NB: Windows only, and not the 'Live' (online) Excel, only the installed application]
[TLex/tlTerm][New General 'Text Commands' Menu] New Tree View submenu if right-click on a term in a tlTerm document that contains various commands for the right-clicked term, e.g. auto-search in the Multi-Document Smart-Search, insert into Word (if the Word plugin is active), insert into Excel (at the current active cell, if Excel is open), launch web search with DuckDuckGo, launch F6 search, launch F3 search, insert as new entry into TLex/tlTerm, etc. Also add all the same menu commands for TLex lemmasigns when right-clicking on the entry in the Tree View, or in the Entry List at the left, and also for TLex Translation Equivalents when right-clicking on them in the Tree View.
[Multi-Document Smart-Search / Microsoft Word Integration] Exciting new feature: [beta] The new 'Multi-Document Manager / Smart-Search' (accessible from the Word popup dialog, from the 'File' menu, the 'Edit' menu and more) allows you to load multiple files in various formats (your own or 3rd-party), and then the Word popup auto-searches in these also, in addition to in your own currently open tlTerm/TLex document; supported file formats currently include tlTerm files, TLex files, TMX (Translation Memory eXchange), TBX (TermBase eXchange), and XLIFF (XML Localisation Interchange File Format). So the Word popup can now search multiple tlTerm files at once, as well as other formats at the same time. (Please note that for .TMX files, you may currently need to copy the TMX DTD file into the folder containing your TMX files.)
[Filter (F5)] Added ability to put your own custom Lua filter and Lua element-filter scripts in your own 'Documents' folder, under e.g. a subfolder under the application name 'c:UsersYourUsernameDocumentstlTermPluginsFilters' or e.g. 'c:UsersYourUsernameDocumentstlTermPluginsElementQueries', respectively (for TLex, this would be a TLex subfolder instead of tlTerm). You can either copy your .lua filter script files into this folder manually, or you can use the new menu commands accessible by clicking on the "Advanced" button under "Filter (F5)", "Install custom user Lua filter" and "Install custom user Lua element filter". Note that if you have TLex Suite, these script files are stored separately in different folders for TLex and for tlTerm (so if you have a Lua script you want to use in both, then please install twice). (This new feature is not to be confused with the existing Filter (F5) "user filters" feature, which merely refer to the various special types of filters (e.g. search filters) that appear at the bottom of the F5 filter tree when you create/access them from elsewhere in the application, e.g. from 'Search (F3)' or from the 'Statistics' view, etc.)
[Export / Import CSV] New export option "Output entry ID", and corresponding new option in the CSV importer, "{Entry/xml:id}" as a special field that (when used for the first column) merge-matches each imported onto the original entry using its ID (if the entry with that ID still exists). (This should be used if exporting to Excel to allow external editing, e.g. adding translations for tlTerm data, though it's generally still 'best practice' to work in tlTerm as far as possible.)
[TLex/tlTerm] [Microsoft Word Integration / Corpus (F6)] New Microsoft Word integration popup command 'F6 Search' launches a Corpus (F6) search for the current word (or selected phrase) that you're standing on in Microsoft Word (presuming, of course, that you have configured your corpus here)
[Microsoft Word Integration / Search (F3)] New Microsoft Word integration popup command 'F3 Search' launches a Search (F3) search for the current word (or selected phrase) that you're standing on in Microsoft Word
New command Window/Always on top
[RTF Exporter] New option GenerateParagraphStyles to also generate corresponding RTF paragraph styles (instead of RTF character styles) for paragraph styles in TLex/tlTerm/tlDatabase [beta]
New menu command "Tools/Take screenshot" (beta)
New menu command "Window/Previous window or tab (Ctrl+Shift+F6)"
[Microsoft Word Integration] New option Include incomplete allows you to toggle whether to search entries marked as 'incomplete' [On by default]
[Microsoft Word Integration] New option Use filters allows you to search only entries that pass the current filter. This can be used for, say, restricting the search to a particular subject field in tlTerm, or many other potential uses. [Off by default]
[Localisation] Fix: Built-in localisation editor: Unable to save .lang files under Program Files folder - now saves custom or modified localisation .lang files into your own Documents folder, in a subfolder under the application name, e.g. "Documents/tlTerm/LocalisationCatalogs"
[Right-to-left] Fix: Document-wide right-to-left flag (under e.g. 'Dictionary/Properties' etc.) was no longer always correctly propagating to Preview Area or HTML export

New in TLex Suite 10.1.0.1813 Beta (Jan 22, 2018)

[Microsoft Word Integration / Search (F3)] New Microsoft Word integration popup command 'F3 Search' launches a Search (F3) search for the current word (or selected phrase) that you're standing on in Microsoft Word
[tlCorpus] New Microsoft Word Integration toolbar button: When turned on, performs auto-corpus-search of the current word (or selected phrase) that you're standing on in Microsoft Word
[tlCorpus] New command Window/Always on top
New command Window/Always on top
[tlReader] New command Window/Always on top
[RTF Exporter] New option GenerateParagraphStyles to also generate corresponding RTF paragraph styles (instead of RTF character styles) for paragraph styles in TLex/tlTerm/tlDatabase [beta]
New menu command "Tools/Take screenshot" (beta)
New menu command "Window/Previous window or tab (Ctrl+Shift+F6)"
[Samples / Right to Left] New sample 'RTL (Right to Left) English Arabic (basic bilingual)'
[Microsoft Word Integration] New option Include incomplete allows you to toggle whether to search entries marked as 'incomplete' [On by default]
[Microsoft Word Integration] New option Use filters allows you to search only entries that pass the current filter. This can be used for, say, restricting the search to a particular subject field in tlTerm, or many other potential uses. [Off by default]

New sample 'Trilingual Dictionary with 3 Sections'
[tlCorpus] Web Crawler: Add support for https sites
[Advanced][Online Publishing Exporter] Add support for https publish URLs
[beta][High-DPI display issues] New Tools menu option "[beta] Toggle high DPI user interface fixes"
Fix tabbed view font clipping with large fonts, and use larger toolbar icons on high-resolution displays
[Tree View] New setting "MaxDepth": Maximum hierarchy depth for Tree View right-click 'add element' commands. Warning: Setting this too high can make Tree View right-click slow, though this depends entirely on your particular document's structure (DTD) - for many documents, higher values may be perfectly fine or desirable. Range: [1 - 100]. Default: 3. To change this setting, click the config icon in the top right of the Preview Area, select 'Tree View settings', and double-click on the option.
[Tools][Advanced/Experimental] Improvements to the (beta) "Tools/Add a new section" and "Tools/Delete selected section" commands (advanced users only), and make these menu commands visible by default now.
Multi-section Documents: The 'Add a new section' command can be used to create documents with three or more 'sections', to e.g. create trilingual dictionaries, or other multi-section documents (e.g. sections could represent chapters in a text). When there are three or more 'sections' present in a document, they are displayed in a tabbed interface. Strictly speaking, all sections share the same DTD (i.e. fields / elements and attributes), though you may choose to use different subsets of DTD elements/attributes in different sections, if applicable to your document. For example, in a trilingual English - French - Chinese dictionary, say, the first 'section' might use French and Chinese translation elements, the second English and Chinese, and the third English and French. As another example, different sections could represent entirely different dictionaries/texts.
[Tools][Advanced/Experimental] New "Tools/Edit section" command allows you to edit section details, e.g. rename the section

Range: [1 - 100]. Default: 3. To change this setting, click the config icon in the top right of the Preview Area, select 'Tree View settings', and double-click on the option.
[Tools][Advanced/Experimental] Improvements to the (beta) "Tools/Add a new section" and "Tools/Delete selected section" commands (advanced users only), and make these menu commands visible by default now.
Multi-section Documents: The 'Add a new section' command can be used to create documents with three or more 'sections', to e.g. create trilingual dictionaries, or other multi-section documents (e.g. sections could represent chapters in a text). When there are three or more 'sections' present in a document, they are displayed in a tabbed interface. Strictly speaking, all sections share the same DTD (i.e. fields / elements and attributes), though you may choose to use different subsets of DTD elements/attributes in different sections, if applicable to your document. For example, in a trilingual English - French - Chinese dictionary, say, the first 'section' might use French and Chinese translation elements, the second English and Chinese, and the third English and French. As another example, different sections could represent entirely different dictionaries/texts.
[Tools][Advanced/Experimental] New "Tools/Edit section" command allows you to edit section details, e.g. rename the section

You specify a regular expression for each whereby the first bracketed submatch corresponds to the data to extract. For example, if your corpus lines are formatted as follows:
The man walks -- Monna o a sepela
then you can specify e.g. "^(.*) -- " and " -- (.*)$" for these two options (respectively) to auto-extract the usage example and its translation.
[tlTerm / Compare/Merge] Improvements and bugfixes to 'File / Compare/Merge' tool for tlTerm, e.g. more meaningful sorting and comparison of entries, and also takes into account the currently selected language in the tlTerm language selection dropdown in the toolbar near the top left of the application window

Find / Replace dialog] [Beta] [Advanced] Add a new search/replace "filter mode" that allows the search and/or replace to be restricted only to the exact nodes/elements that pass the current filter. This effectively allows "conditional replacements" for conditions occurring on the same node (for example, 'replace some-text with some-other-text in "attribute2", but only if (say) "attribute1" on that same node contains a certain value'; or, 'replace, but only if (say) the node has a "Subentry" parent' - any conceivable 'filter' in the software can be used as a condition, provided it matches the desired node(s)).
This "filter mode" currently applies only in the "Default field search" mode, and only if the "Use filters" checkbox is ticked.
As an example, assume we want to fill in empty instances of "ElementName::Attribute2" on an element named "ElementName", but only if the value is empty AND only if "ElementName::Attribute1" (on the same element) contains the text "foo" (for this latter check, we'll use an F3 field search applied as a 'search filter', see below). To achieve this, do the following:
Make sure to back up your data before trying this, and try it on a test copy of your database first, to make sure it works correctly
Open your document
Before doing anything else, select the 'Tools/Options' menu command (or Mac 'Preferences' menu), and select the "User Preferences Properties List [Advanced]" tab
Find the preference "/Find" "FilterMode", double-click on it, and enter a new value of "2" (without quotes)
Click "OK" to close the Options/Preferences window
Now, go to 'Search (F3)' (this is not inherently part of using the new "filter mode", but we use it because in this particular case, we are going to use a 'search filter')
Click the 'Fields' tab in the Search and Replace dialog, click the 'Clear all' button, and tick "ElementName::Attribute2" (this tells the Search and Replace dialog to only search/replace in that attribute ... this is not to be confused with the 'Fields' setting under F3 from the previous steps)
Select the 'Search and Replace' tab in the Search and Replace dialog
- Enter "^$" as the search text (without quotes); this is a regular expression that matches an empty field
Enter your replacement text as the replacement text (e.g. "bar") - this will be used to fill in ElementName::Attribute2
Make sure 'Regular expression is ticked'
Make sure 'Use filters' is ticked (it will not work correctly if it is not)
Click 'Replace all' (or use 'Find next' and/or 'Replace' to find/replace one by one)
Close the Search and Replace dialog
When done, go back to 'Tools/Options' 'User Preferences' tab and change the "/Find" "FilterMode" back to "0" (to turn off the "filter mode" again within Search and Replace, otherwise it may appear to behave strangely next time you try use it)

[DTD Editor] List items: New "Copy with IDs" command for copying list items to clipboard along with their IDs
[Activation System] Make improvements to the activation dialog to help automatically fix an activation that fails due to having been inadvertently copied from one computer to another (this can occasionally happen e.g. if upgrading Windows, or if the user is transferring their 'documents and settings' from one computer to another). (The previous solution was to use the "Reset key" button, but this was not user-friendly.)
[Compare/Merge] New option "EntryListCompareEntriesByNodeID": [Advanced] Compare entries in the entry list by the unique node ID of each entry instead of by headword; this can help to create a 'stable' compare/merge entry list if doing data remodelling work that affects the entry headword. For tlTerm documents this is effectively always ON. (default: OFF)
[Online Publishing Exporter] [Advanced] New option "EntryIDQuery" allows a custom tQuery to be specified to generate 'remapped' entry IDs. This can be used, for example, to implement 'stable entry IDs'.
[Online Publishing Exporter] [Advanced] New option "TitleIDQuery" allows a custom tQuery to be specified to generate title ID for entry (this can be used indirectly to, e.g., use a list attribute to specify title of entry)

[Filter (F5)] Implement a new 'custom user filter' system. With this system, various 'special' filters that you use during a session (e.g. 'search' or 'stats' filters) will now be temporarily added to the list of filter conditions under Filter (F5) (at the bottom of the list). This allows these filters to be used like other filters under F5, i.e. they can be unticked or re-ticked, be used in combination with other filters and/or with each other, can be selected in the F5 'Hide' column, and be used with features such as F5 'Go to next', 'Tag all' and 'Filter actions'. These 'custom user filters' are added only temporarily and are discarded when you close the document or exit the application, and are denoted with a "*" in the F5 filter list.
The following 'special' filters have been re-implemented to work as 'custom user filters' (i.e. get added to the F5 list when you activate these):
Search (F3) and 'Find' / 'Search and Replace' Filter commands
Parent->Child stats filters
'Parse error' stats filters
'Child pattern' stats filters (i.e. via 'Element details' stats)
'Attribute pattern' stats filters
'Sibling pattern' stats filters
List 'N-items count' filters
List item filters
'Number-of-smart-cross-references on a smart-refs node' filters
[Search (F3) / Search and Replace / Filters] The Search (F3) and Search and Replace 'Filter' commands now add these custom search filters to the list of filter conditions under Filter (F5) (temporarily for the session). This allows search filters to be used like other filters under F5, and thus can be used in combination with other filters, as well as making it easier to 'search within search results'.
[Stats] Parent->Child stats: Add new Filter "(=0)" option that finds/filters cases of the given parent with ZERO children of this child element specifically
[Filter (F5) / Filter Actions] [Advanced] New Filter Action 'Run Lua script on all matching nodes' of the current filter conditions selected under F5 (use gCurrentNode and gCurrentEntry for the matching node and entry respectively)

[Filter (F5)] [Advanced] New Filter Element Actions system that allows 'actions' to be performed on all nodes in a document that match the current filter condition(s). These are accessible under 'Filter (F5) via a new "Advanced" button. Current actions are:
- "Delete all matching elements"
- "Delete 'text' child nodes from all matching elements"
[Stats] Element details: "Occurring Left-Siblings" Add new count/filter option in the 'element details' stats list for occurrences of 'element has no left-siblings' (i.e. element is first child)
[Stats] Clicking on 'Count' heading a second time now toggles the sort-elements-by-instance-count off again (and back to sorting by DTD element order)
[Stats] Fix element name not visible in some cases if color is white on a white background, or black on a black background
[Styles editor] Minor user-friendliness improvement: Add a 'signpost' heading showing what styleset and style you're currently viewing
[DTD editor] Right-click in attribute list: New command to copy attribute list to clipboard
[DTD editor] Right-click in 'allowed child elements' list: New command to copy allowed child element list to clipboard
[DTD editor] Right-click in 'allowed child elements' list: New commands "Synchronize output order in styles" (and "Synchronize output order in styles for ALL elements" to do this for ALL elements in the DTD). This will try set the 'output order' of child elements to be the same as their ordering in the 'allowed child elements' list. Note this won't necessarily work properly for cases where there are 'out of order' children, i.e. multiple instances of the same allowed child element (eg. "A,B,A"). It's also important to remain aware here that in the 'output orders', unlike in the actual DTD, the elements may be intermingled with attributes (due to the output order system that allows transforming the order on generating the output), e.g. "Attr1,ChildElem1,Attr2,ChildElem2" - if so, this function may leave some undesired orderings of child elements relative to attributes; these can only be resolved manually as this function cannot automatically know the correct desired ordering. The function tries to leave attribute ordering intact, but this isn't always possible.

[Stats] 'Full statistics': For smart-references element (e.g. "References"), add a detailed breakdown of reference-type instance counts and num-references instance counts. Also add corresponding filters (available from within this stats view) for finding smart-reference elements where the number of cross-references is greater-than, less-than, equal-to etc. a given count.
[Tools / Advanced] Add new 'Tools/Bulk element/attribute rename' tool (for advanced users) that allows you to quickly rename many elements and/or attributes in the DTD at once by specifying the list of renames to perform in a two-column CSV (Comma-Separated Values - e.g. Excel export) text file. This tool prompts you for a CSV/.txt file which contains on each line a field (either element or attribute) to rename, one per line, then performs the DTD renames as appropriate. Attributes should be specified as: ElementName/AttributeName. Note you should try use the old element names in column one 'throughout', and the new element names in column two 'throughout'. The simplest way to create the input file is using spreadsheet software, e.g. Excel, then doing a 'Save as' to CSV format. What may also be helpful here is the DTD editor command to 'copy full element and element/attribute list to clipboard', which can be pasted into column 1. An example input file to the bulk rename tool looks like:
OldElemName,NewElemName
OldElemName/OldAttrName1,NewElemName/NewAttrName1
OldElemName/OldAttrName2,NewElemName/NewAttrName2
ElemName/OldAttrName,ElemName/NewAttrName
[Tools / Advanced] Add new 'Tools/[Advanced] Create dynamic-ref-tree smartref elements'. This tool adds two new 'special' elements (with corresponding special attributes) to the DTD, with names starting with "_autogen_ref". When these are present, then when a "References" node generates its output, it does so 'behind the scenes' using temporary 'created-on-the-fly' instances of these new elements/attributes (note you should not manually add instances of these elements to your data). This system makes several improvements to the smart-references, e.g. the styles can now be configured in the Styles system in a more fine-grained manner for smart-reference fields (e.g. reftype, ref, homnum, sensenum), the visibility and order of the smart-reference output fields can be configured separately, the auto-punctuation between references and groups of reference types is more configurable (e.g. the auto-punctuation in cases like "SEE cat, dog, COMPARE zebra"), and it gives typesetters potentially finer control in typesetting smart-reference fields. It also fixes a limitation whereby the smart-reference homnum would be hidden if the main entry homnum field was hidden (as the old behaviour is to inherit the visibility setting from the main entry's homonym number attribute - though this is not a problem for most databases). Note that if these elements and attributes are not present, then the old behaviour still applies. These elements can easily be deleted at any time in the DTD editor to revert to the old behaviour, or created again to switch to the new behaviour.

'Tools/Copy field': Add 'Help' button that opens integrated help explaining in more detail how to use this advanced tool (as well as more information on the tQuery expression syntax)
[Tools / Advanced] Add new 'Tools/XML bulk regex replace' tools that allow a bulk regular-expression-based search and replace (somewhat like the "sed" tool) to be performed on each entry's underlying XML. The script syntax is as follows: "#" at the start of a line denotes a comment line; otherwise, "_" separates 'search for' and 'replace with' strings (one per line), e.g. "^([^]+)_\1" would extract bold at the start of the entry and place it into a 'LemmaSign' element. Blank lines are ignored. This tool can be particularly useful for post-import data remodelling and clean-up (although it was possible to do this via export and re-import previously, it can now be done in TLex/tlTerm/tLDatabase directly).
[Search and Replace] New 'Search across entry as XML [Advanced]' option that allows you to search (or replace) in the XML of a full entry (e.g. "(noun)" => "")
[Search and Replace] New 'List all matching values'' command generates a list of all strings that match the (regular expression) search query in the document (e.g. a regular expression search for "l[^ ]+t" would generate a list of all words in the document that start with 'l' and end with 't'. This command can also be used with the new 'Search across entry as XML' option, so you could, for example, generate a list of all characters following a given element by searching for the regular expression ".".
[Preview] Add new 'View/Toggle XML view' option that displays a basic XML view of the selected entry in the Preview Area
[Tree View] Add new right-click edit command 'Delete node only' that deletes just the given node but not its children, with the children shifting up to occupy the spot occupied by the deleted node
[Error checks] Add 'fix in DTD' command for missing parent->child element relations
[Stats] Add 'text', 'CDATA' and 'error' child node counts for each element under parent->child stats section
[Stats] Fixed: Parent->Child element counts didn't display in normal full stats if that Parent->Child relation wasn't allowed in the DTD (i.e. constituted a DTD violation in the data)
New setting (under 'Tools/Options/Properties') 'UserInterface/ExpandedViewDefault' allows you to specify whether Expanded View mode opens by default when you open a document (setting value: 0 = off by default, 1 = on by default, 2 = remember last setting for each document)
