# novelWriter Changelog
22

3+
## Version 2.0.7 [2023-04-16]
4+
5+
### Release Notes
6+
7+
This is a patch release that fixes a few issues and adds a Japanese translation.
8+
9+
The issues were mostly related to spell checking. In particular, issues with finding the word
10+
boundary when using underscore characters for italics markup. These issues should now be resolved.
11+
In addition, escaped markup characters are now renderred properly in HTML and ODT build formats.
12+
13+
A few usability improvements have also been made. The Add Item menu in the project tree no longer
14+
shows the options to create Novel Documents when an item in the tree is selected that cannot hold
15+
such a document. In addition, the "Change Label" context menu entry has been changed to say
16+
"Rename", which is a more logical choice.
17+
18+
### Detailed Changelog
19+
20+
**Bugfixes**
21+
22+
* Fixed an issue where novelWriter sometimes shows up in the desktop environment on Linux under
23+
another name than it's supposed to, which meant it would show up without the correct icon. The
24+
desktop environment was apparently guessing its name based on various values. It is now set
25+
explicitly. PR #1405.
26+
* Fixed an issue where the syntax highlighting for spell checked words were not cleared when spell
27+
checking was disabled. Issue #1414. PR #1416.
28+
* Fixed a series of issues with spell checking of words and sentences with italics styling using
29+
underscores. The spell checker relies on RegEx for splitting words, and RegEx considers the
30+
underscore a word character. Issue #1415. PR #1417.
31+
* Fixed an issue where escaped markup characters were not being cleaned up when building HTML and
32+
ODT outputs. Issue #1412. PR #1418.
33+
34+
**Usability Fixes**
35+
36+
* The context menu entry "Change Label" in the project tree has now been changed to say "Rename",
37+
which matches with the main menu, and is also more in line with what users expect. PR #1403.
38+
* The entries for creating new Novel Documents in the project tree's Add Item menu are now hidden
39+
when the select item in the tree does not allow Novel Documents. This is less confusing than the
40+
previous behaviour where it would just create a Project Note regardless of selected file option.
41+
Issue #1404. PR #1406.
42+
43+
**Internationalisation**
44+
45+
* Added Japanese translation, contributed by @hebekeg. PR #1407.
46+
* Updated existing translations. PR #1407.
47+
48+
**Packaging**
49+
50+
* Legacy AppImage formats have been added to support glibc 2.24. This is a temporary solution until
51+
the AppImage base image is deprecated later in 2023. Issue #1391. PR #1410.
