NEW:

  • User Interface — OmniOutliner has undergone an interface update in order to make it look more at home on Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite.
  • Resource Browser — Thumbnail images used in the resource browser are now cached on disk making interactions with it much quicker.

UPDATED:

  • Export — The Keynote export has been removed. This export wrote out to the Keynote v1 format which is no longer supported by the latest Keynote version.
  • Help — Help document content has been updated.

FIXED:

  • Notes — When notes are being viewed in pane, the note icon on the row will correctly indicate if a note exists.
  • Export — The way conflicting attachment names are dealt with has been changed. Certain characters in file names will also be replaced. This allows supported image formats to always properly export to the MS Word docx format. Existing documents with such attachments just need to be re-saved to adopt these changes. If you still encounter any issues, please contact us at omnioutliner@omnigroup.com and send a copy of the OmniOutliner document.
  • Export — Exporting while focused should now properly export.
  • Templates — The first page customized header has been removed from all built-in templates.

  • Stability — Fixed a crash that occurred when typing more than two digits into the “Spaces between columns” preference.
