New in version Version 2.7b10:
Changes for beta 10

• Fixed: crash on startup for 10.3 users.
• Fixed: Draft view sometimes missing a vertical scrollbar.
• Fixed: keyboard shortcuts in sheets (eg: Open/Save panel or "save changes" sheet) no longer disabled if you have a multikey shortcut with the same prefix.
• Changes/fixes for Full Screen mode:

• Full Screen view now shows the menu bar if the mouse is held still in the menu bar region.
• Opening another document or changing applications properly exits you from Full Screen view.
• Full Screen view picks up Draft View zoom by default.

• Fixes/cleanups for styles:

• Redundant attributes are properly stripped from styles loaded from files.
• Fixed: the default font would sometimes be incorrectly introduced into style definitions.
• Fixed: if the user chose to "use existing styles" when a style conflict existed, related styles may have been added anyways (eg: parent style "Normal 1" may have been added).
• Fixed: if you paste text that adds styles to the document, undoing the paste does not remove those styles.
• Fixed: proper Header/Footer style was not applied to first page header/footer.
• Fixed: style list in the Styles palette was not always sorted properly.
• Fixed: scrollbar in the Styles palette nervously toggles between being visible and hidden when you resize the view beyond the height of all styles.

• Fixed: if you are editing in a header/footer for a section that does not have the "different this section" option turned on, the Sections palette displayed and modified the wrong section.
• Fixed: attributes from empty table cells no longer bleed into adjacent cells when a file is saved.
• Fixed: inserting a section/page break directly after a table would discard the current paragraph style.
• Fixed: could crash if user attempted to continue typing in header/footer after changing the section's "different this section" or "different first page" options.
• Fixed: table column resizing hotspots can become non-functional if the table width is contrained by the page/column.
• Fixed: default actions are now done if the user selects the Copy/Paste/Cut/Find menu (eg: user doesn't bother with the submenus).
• Fixed: "Convert From Unicode Code Points" could leave behind final digit in code point.
• Fixed: invoking more than one keyboard shortcut without releasing the command key could have exectued the commands out of order.
• Added menu for sorting paragraphs randomly.
• Fixed: soft hyphens in files are no longer turned into weird characters when opened in Express.
• Doing a find and replace in text with precomposed character sequences could generate errors.
• Editing the default leader tab settings made more clear.
• Reworded "Odd & Even pages" page setup options.
• Fixed: prevent crash if note becomes too large due to paste operation.
• Cleaned up macros to not use the stupid way of transmitting stdin/stdout through named clipboards.
• Fixed: character palette's "font family" popup menu could be disabled after resizing the palette to make it smaller.

System requirements:
• Mac OS X 10.3 or later (Mac OS X 10.4 for full right to left input support).
• G3 or better

*Mac OS X 10.4 is needed for full support of BiDi (right to left input)
