[Passwordsafe-devel] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.44.0 for Windows

[pwsafe.org <ro...@pw...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.44.0 for Windows.
This is a maintenance release, fixing a few minor issues, adding some small
features, as described below.
Thanks to dk, pm_kan, SauravG, Larry, MrMe for their help in this release.
Thanks also to all the users who have provided bug reports, suggestions,
and the occasional donation...

Bugs Fixed in 3.44.0
====================
[1438] Double backslash is now correctly parsed in Run Command.
[1432] Perform autotype of correct entry when the user changes the
selection made by a Find.
[1431] The protected entry padlock symbol is now used in all places
where a protected
entry is listed in any dialog.
[1430] If an expired or about to be expired entry is edited at database
open (requires warning preference to be enabled), the database will be
saved if the 'Save database immediately after any change' preference is
enabled. After the open is complete, these changes can be undone/redone if
required.
[1429] Tree and List views now retain focus when a shortcut entry is
created.
[1428] Remember Find toolbar state when restoring from minimized.
[1420] The virtual keyboard font size setting is now persistent.
[1398] Remember if PasswordSafe was maximized when exited.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.44.0
======================================
[] The option that allows you to change the color of the system tray
icon displayed
when Password Safe is initially started and when there's no open database has
been removed. The standard PasswordSafe brown icon will be used.
[] Use the Add/Edit font in preference to the Tree/List font outside the
actual Tree/List views (since the Tree/List fonts may be too large).

New Features for 3.44.0
=======================
[] When exporting a group or the results of a filter, if any additional
entries have been exported (e.g. base entries of aliases or shortcuts
already exported), they will be noted in the Export report.
[844] The default font for the password field is now 12pt Consolas.
[843] The default font for Tree/List views, Add/Edit fields and an entry's
Notes is now 10pt Segoe UI.
[842] A new symbol (paperclip - Unicode U+01F4CE) to indicate that an entry
has an attachment (V4 databases only) has been implemented but, if the
currently selected Tree/List font does not support it and the user is not
running Windows 10, then the old symbol ('+') will be used.
[841] Close/exit is now allowed via System Tray icon when the database is
open in read-only mode.
[839] The list of expired entries now shows protected entries in italics,
indicating that they must be unprotected before they can be updated.
[828] The main window can now be set to be partially transparent via
Manage->Options->Display.
