SermonDesk 0.4.5

• A label at the podium keeps its word whole. On Windows, whose fonts
  run wider, the settings sheet's Clock row broke its Ukrainian label in
  two beside the three-word control. A row in that sheet now sets its
  control under the label when there is no room beside it, and never
  breaks a word.

SermonDesk 0.4.4

• Three more languages. Vietnamese, Ukrainian, and Chinese in
  traditional characters join the eleven, each with the app's every
  sentence and the sixty-six books as its Bibles name them: the Truyền
  Thống, Ohienko's, and the Union Version as Taiwan and Hong Kong print
  it. Dictation knows "đoạn mới", "новий абзац" and "新段落" with the rest.
  The traditional table was converted from the simplified one with
  Taiwan's words. Each of the three was then read twice more: once by
  checks that every placeholder, shortcut and term survived, and once
  sentence by sentence in the place it appears, which turned up the
  usual slips of a first draft, a mode called "currently writing", a font
  size in "argument points", the alphabet where the Epistles belonged,
  and in the traditional table some two hundred mainland words the
  converter had left. The simplified table took the same meaning fixes,
  and now calls the Recycle Bin by its Windows name.
• A sermon written right to left reads so. A paragraph in Arabic or
  Hebrew sets from its own right edge on the page, on the outline and the
  handout, in print, and at the pulpit, each paragraph from its own first
  letter, in an app whose own words still run left to right. Before, such
  a line sat against the left edge as English does.
• Two words that served two things. The Paper tab's reading pace
  between Slow and Fast shared its one English word, Normal, with the
  margins, so a language whose adjectives agree with their noun could say
  only one of them right; the pace is called Moderate now, with a word of
  its own in every language, and Russian's margins agree with theirs. The
  Bible map's historical books shared the word History with the sheet of
  a sermon's versions, so most languages labelled Joshua to Esther with
  their word for a browser's history; the section is Histories now, and
  each language names the books. The Chinese, Japanese and Korean maps
  no longer count "1 chapter chapter", and their page-numbers row says
  page numbers rather than digits.
• One window, whatever it holds. Preferences was as tall as whichever
  tab was open, so it jumped with every click, the tab strip was squeezed
  on the two tall tabs and scrolled away with them, and Done was wherever
  the tab ended, on Keyboard a long way down. The Bible map and History
  each had a shape of their own, with Print in the map's band and "Esc
  closes" in History's, and Tidy, a series and a tag ran as long as their
  lists, Done at the bottom of the scroll. They are one family now: a
  band at the top with the name or the tabs, a foot with Done in the same
  place on every one, the map's Print beside it, and only the rows between
  them scroll; a wide window keeps one height whichever tab or list is in
  it, and a full one takes the room under the strip. History's versions
  and the chosen version scroll in their own boxes, with the bar above
  the words in view. The Keyboard tab's four tables share one set of
  columns, each key of a chord sits in its own cap, and Margins has a hint
  like its neighbours.
• The Inspector is called Format. The panel beside the page carried
  Apple's old word for it, which told a pastor nothing and translated
  into "checker" and "side panel". Its toolbar button says Format now,
  the tab it opens to, as Pages names the same panel; the Outline and
  Stories tabs are still inside it. The Preferences row reads "Format
  panel beside the page", and every language has the new words.
• One word for each thing. The library was also "the sidebar", page
  numbers were "Numbers", the header a "running head", the handout's
  layouts had one name in the panel and another on the ribbon, the
  pulpit's theme was "Screen" with options of its own, a fresh copy of a
  sermon was "Duplicate" in one menu and "Save a copy" in another, and
  the tab for what you pay for said Licence over a group that said
  Subscription. Each is one word now, in every language, with British
  spelling throughout (capitalise, grey) and the menu bar in sentence
  case. The rules every screen follows are written down in
  docs/PRODUCT.md.
• Five names settled. A story is a story everywhere now, on the page
  as well as in the toolbar and the tab; it was labelled an illustration
  on the page. The place a sermon is preached from is the podium in every
  sentence, as the tab already said, not the pulpit. Preferences is
  Settings, the word the Mac and Windows both use, and the podium's own
  sheet already did. A story is saved to Stories, the tab that keeps
  them, rather than to "the library", which is where the sermons are.
  And a saved set of library filters is a saved search, with a Searches
  chip, so "view" means only Manuscript, Outline or Handout.
• One strip, one home for each command. With nothing open the window
  showed a second, smaller toolbar with a menu of its own that held
  Import and Settings again and was the only place to export everything
  as Markdown. It is the one toolbar now, its sermon buttons greyed until
  one is open; Import, Transcribe a recording and Export everything as
  Markdown live under the library's menu, and Settings on its button. The
  window is named for the open sermon, so the Window menu and the app
  switcher say which. The menu bar gained a View menu that does what the
  toolbar does, and Help offers the keyboard shortcuts, what is new, and
  a way to write to us.
• Said once, the same way. Settings › Podium now has the Read from,
  Rail and Text size rows the podium's own sheet said were there, with
  the same controls; the podium's sheet closes with Done like every other
  window. The key you buy is a subscription key everywhere, not a licence.
  The groups that hold the Stories actions are captioned Stories, and
  Save to Stories left the Insert menu, where it did not insert. Every
  notice above the page is one style, every error one red line, the safe
  side of every question is Keep, and the status bar no longer shows the
  file's name, which Show file finds.

SermonDesk 0.4.3

• History on a phone. The sheet kept its two columns at a phone's
  width, the versions taking most of it and the chosen one a strip of one
  word a line. It is one column now, the versions above the words.
• A version is named for the day it was worked on. The copy kept at the
  first change of a day was named for that day, so the row under "Today ·
  this draft" said Today again; it now says the day the copy's last save
  was made, Yesterday or the Thursday before. A version from another year
  carries its year, since the preached day's copy stays for good. The
  Preached tag sits on the copy the end card kept at the service, not on
  the day's earlier copy of the sermon as the morning began.
• A reworded heading is one block that changed. History followed blocks
  by their words, so a point renamed showed as a block gone and a block
  new, with Put back offering to double it. Blocks keep their ids from save
  to save, and History follows those: the heading shows as it went and as
  it came, in one box, and a cut story put back lands after the point it
  followed.
• A changed block keeps its paragraph breaks in History's box, where
  they had run together.
• Space after a block goes after the whole block. The Paragraph
  section's After put its line between a point's heading and its first
  paragraph, the paragraphs sitting outside the frame that carried the
  margin, while print put it after the point. The sheet now does what
  the paper does.
• Update Body to match reaches the page. The wand took a paragraph's
  alignment into the Body style and print applied it, but the screen's
  Body carried no alignment, so every other paragraph stayed where it
  was until the sheet came out of the printer centred.
• The Inspector's Page section says whose look it sets. The switch for
  a sermon keeping its own look, which the Paper tab had, heads the Page
  section too, so a paper or margin changed on the Format tab is known to
  land in the file or on this computer. The page's font moved there from
  under Text, where it sat between the size and the bold that act on the
  words chosen, and Turn is the same Portrait and Landscape control in
  both places.
• Where a story was told opens that sermon. A story's uses on the
  Stories tab, "Told 3 times" and the sermons under it, were words; each
  is now a press that opens the sermon, as the Outline tab's related rows
  are, since the question after "has this congregation heard it" is
  "what did I say".
• Save to library keeps stories. The button was offered in a passage,
  a point, a table and a picture, and from a passage it opened the form
  with no title and a verse reference for a body. It now keeps a story,
  an application, or plain text, and says why otherwise.

SermonDesk 0.4.2

• The handout says how many sheets it prints on. The status bar counts
  them, "Prints on 2 sheets", and a dashed edge crosses the preview where
  each sheet after the first begins, so a second page with three lines on
  it is seen before a hundred copies are made.
• The handout names the church it was preached at. The log's church
  for the sermon's date goes at the head of the sheet; the home church from
  Preferences only when the log has none.
• The insert's note lines run to the bottom of its half sheet, where
  four short lines left the lower third blank.
• A Blanks sheet with nothing bold prints no page of answers, which was
  a second page the same as the first.
• The outline minds the caret. Folding a body with the caret in it, or
  opening the outline from the manuscript with the caret in a body, brings
  the caret up to the heading. It stayed in the folded line before, and
  the next words typed went where nobody could see them.
• A point moved on the outline carries what sits under it. Move up
  and down from its menu, from the right-click, and a drag by its grip
  take the passage, the story and the application beneath the point
  along, as the one-sheet's arrows always have; the drop line shows where
  the whole section lands.
• Minutes beside every point on the screen too, while the Paper tab's
  switch is on: estimated from the words, or planned by hand.
• The Format tab reads more plainly. Clear formatting and the format
  painter have a row of their own, Marks, each with its word, where the
  painter had wrapped under the Case row. The page's paper and line
  spacing are called Paper and Lines, in the handout's column too, so they
  no longer share a name with the text's size and the paragraph's spacing.
  Two hints now fit their line.
• The podium's ready screen keeps beside its settings. On a 1024-wide
  projector the Settings sheet covered the title's second half, the hint
  line and the Leave button; the screen now centres in the room beside
  the sheet, and on a phone the sheet takes the whole width.
• "Mark as preached today" no longer blanks the office. When the date
  moved the sermon's file, the editor and the shell told each other the
  path until React gave up and the window emptied; the file, the telling
  and the History version had been written, and relaunching brought it
  all back, but it was a fright at the end of a service. The editor now
  reports only a move it made itself.
• A way back from the end card. Escape, or the End button beside
  Settings on the touch bar, took the sermon to its summary with no way to
  continue but one of the three choices, and closing lost the clock. The
  card now has Back to the sermon, Escape does the same, and the clock
  counts through the detour.
• The sheet of keys is back on the screen. Since the library's row
  menus learned to float, ? had drawn the podium's keys below the bottom
  edge, where nothing could be read.
• A card taller than the screen starts at its top. A long block in the
  Cards reading had its first lines above where a scroll could reach.
• The ready screen says the points' minutes, as the outline's foot does,
  "26 min of 30", where it had estimated from the words beside points
  planned by hand at twice that.
• The podium on a phone. The settings sheet is the screen's width
  rather than running off its left edge, the clock keeps to one line, and
  the outline reading sets each tag over its line instead of beside it.

SermonDesk 0.4.1

• The library's index now runs on the SQLite built into the app.
  Nothing changes on the page or in your folder. The installer carries one
  native part fewer, and the app's runtime can be updated without waiting
  on that part, which had held it back.

Also in this update, from 0.4.0, which was never released on its own:

• A click lands in the Passage, dates popover's fields. The chapter,
  the dates and the view's name took the keyboard alone; the mouse now
  reaches them too, and the Book list opens.
• The Passage, dates popover stays after a view is saved, with the
  view's pin and its forgetting right there, and it hangs from its chip
  still though the new chip at the front has moved the row.
• The line under the byline shows as you type. Typing a passage you
  have preached from before into an open draft says so at once, "You
  preached Romans 8 at Grace Fellowship in September 2025", where it
  waited until the sermon was opened again.
• A sub-point steps in on the inspector's Outline tab, and is called
  a sub-point there, as it is on the page.
• A phone with nothing open can reach the library. The button over
  the empty page opens the drawer, as the toolbar's Library button does
  with a sermon open.
• A page that stops is a page, not a blank window. If something goes
  wrong while a sermon is shown, the page says so, says that the sermon
  is saved as you type, and offers to open it again or go back to the
  library. The library beside it stays as it was.
• By book reads verse by verse within a chapter: Luke 1:5 before
  Luke 1:26, where the newest sermon came first. Your index rebuilds
  itself once, on first launch.
• The count beside a church, a tag or an occasion matches the list.
  A sermon put away in the archive is no longer counted, since All
  leaves the archive out.
• A tag can be pinned too. The star beside each tag on the Tidy sheet
  has pinned it to the row since the sheet came, in place of the three
  most used; 0.3.9 said so only of series and views.

---

SermonDesk 0.3.9

• Pin a series or a view to the library's row. The Tidy sheet has a
  star beside each series, and the Passage, dates popover offers "Pin to
  the row" while one of your views is showing. A pinned chip rides in the
  row whatever its season; the Views chip holds the rest once you have
  more than three, the way the Series chip already did.
• The row folds. A chevron at the row's end folds it to one line, and
  a "+12" chip in the corner says how many chips wait beneath. The chips
  that are on, and the pinned, lead the line, so what narrows the list is
  never out of sight. The row stays as you left it.
• Type "#" or "@" in the search and the tags, or the churches, that
  begin so are offered under the box with their counts. Enter takes one;
  a name with spaces is quoted for you.
• On a phone the row is one line that slides sideways, its edge fading
  where more waits. A chip you press moves to the front and the row comes
  back to show it. Menus opened from the row open whole, above the page.

SermonDesk 0.3.8

• Sub-points. Tab on a point's heading makes it a sub-point under the
  point before it; Shift+Tab steps it out; the inspector's Block section
  has a Level control. The page steps the whole block in. The outline
  counts I, A, 1, the handout 1, a, i, the podium's rail, ready screen and
  end card I, A, and Word takes them as Heading 2 and 3, both ways. A
  sermon written before today opens exactly as it was.
• Cut, Copy, Paste and Select all on the right-click, with Paste
  without formatting, in the chords of the machine you are on. Over a
  link the menu offers Open, Copy the address and Remove link; over a
  picture, Replace and Remove; over a footnote's mark, its note. The
  block's types and spelling follow, as before.
• A bar over a selection. Select words and a small bar offers bold,
  italic, underline, a highlight, a link and the key line, so Focus mode
  can format without the inspector.
• The search box reads your words. "easter 2025" lists that Easter,
  "@Grace" what Grace Fellowship has heard, "#hope" a tag, and "Rom 8"
  the passage, as before; they combine with the chips, and the sentence
  over the list says what was understood. A quoted word is only a word.
• Search matches the start of a word, in every paragraph. "grace"
  finds "graceful" as you type, and "은혜" finds "은혜가" and "은혜를". The
  index reads every paragraph of a block, where it read the first alone.
  Your index rebuilds itself once, on first launch.
• The chip row keeps its shape. Only the live series ride as chips:
  one with a Sunday planned, a sermon within the year, or still empty.
  Every other series waits behind a Series chip, newest first, the
  retired at the bottom. While something narrows the list, the views and
  series that are off fold away and a Clear filters chip appears; the
  tags and every menu stay, so the next narrowing is one press.
• By book. A fourth order lists the library Genesis to Revelation
  under book headings; the year rail steps aside while it is on.
• A Church chip, from the preaching log, beside Occasion. The church
  left the Passage, dates popover.
• This week, other years. A chip, shown when it has something, for
  the sermons preached within three days of today's date in every earlier
  year. It never joins a saved view, since the week moves.
• A narrowing of twelve sermons or fewer opens every year it falls
  in, so four funerals across three years read together. Rows say their
  occasion beside the date, and the year rail says how many each holds.
• A line under the byline. While a sermon is a draft, typing a
  passage you have preached from before says so: "You preached Romans 8
  at Grace Fellowship in September 2026". Press it to open that sermon.
• Headings that ask only when wanted. An empty illustration,
  application, reflection or note heading shows "Heading, if it wants
  one" only while the block is hovered or holds the caret.
• One chip for one choice. A grouped tag pressed in the row is no
  longer named on its group's chip too.

SermonDesk 0.3.7

• Templates you can edit. Edit templates…, behind the library's ⋯
  menu and at the foot of Insert's Templates column, lists your own
  templates and the seven built in. Rename one, change its hint, and
  change its blocks, each a type and a heading, add, remove, move, then
  save it over. Make a copy of a built-in and change that. Templates
  live in your sermon folder, so they follow your sermons to every
  computer. Saving a sermon as a template over an existing name says so
  first. The template cards on a new sermon are one even grid.
• The podium looks like the rest of the app. The screens around the
  pulpit, the ready screen, Settings, the end card, the keys and the
  touch bar, use the same buttons, switches and rows as everywhere else,
  in the podium's own dark or light. The ready screen fits whatever
  screen it is on, including the demo on the website and a phone, and
  scrolls when it must.

SermonDesk 0.3.6

• The toolbar reads left to right, the way a sermon is written. Every
  button now has its word, the library and inspector toggles and Preach
  included, and they come in order: the library; New, Save, Share and
  the sermon's menu; Undo and Redo; Insert, Scripture, Story and Dictate;
  Find; then Manuscript, Outline, Handout and Preach, the four forms the
  sermon takes, with the one showing lit. Preferences ends the row, and
  the inspector's toggle keeps the right edge. Share has moved beside
  Save, where print and export belong.

SermonDesk 0.3.5

• Preferences can be moved. The Preferences panel no longer dims the
  window and pins itself under the toolbar. Drag it by its tab strip to
  wherever it is out of the way, and the page stays in reach, so a change
  to the theme, the language or the formatting controls shows on the
  sermon beside it. It reopens where you left it, and closes with Done or
  Escape. Every setting still saves the moment you change it.
• The ribbon looks like the rest of the app. For those who chose the
  ribbon over the inspector: its tabs, buttons, captions and menus are now
  the same ones the toolbar and the inspector use, in the same size and
  colours, with every button named wherever there is room. On a laptop
  with the library open, the six block buttons keep their names.
