v1.8.2
Skrive 1.8.2
The editor's biggest reliability release yet. It closes the whole "nothing is lost" class of bugs and turns code blocks and tables from one-way traps into normal, navigable blocks.
Your work stays put
- Nothing is dropped on save, quit, or tab switch — the last thing you typed is always written, even a split second after you stop.
- Paste from Google Docs and Word keeps its formatting — bold and italic survive instead of arriving as flat text.
- CJK / IME text sticks when composed inside a code block or table cell.
- Copy grabs exactly what you selected — no unselected code block or table sneaks onto the clipboard, and the copy keeps its own style instead of the document's first block's.
- Inline images and line breaks behave when you split, delete, or type around them.
Code blocks and tables are no longer traps
- Leave a code block with the arrow keys, and delete an empty one with Backspace.
- Click below the last block to start a new paragraph — even under a trailing code block or table.
- Turn a code block into text (or a heading, list, or quote) from the block menu.
- Enter in a table cell moves down a row, and drops you below the table from the last row.
- Pasting into a code block keeps its line breaks instead of collapsing to one line.
Writing niceties
- Task lists and strikethrough —
- [ ]and~~text~~. - Smarter paste: hard-wrapped prose flows correctly, and plain-text paste follows standard Markdown rules.
- Enter at the end of a heading starts a normal paragraph, not another heading.
App
- Redesigned sidebar — Favorites, Recents, and All, with manual pins and sorting, plus smoother resize and click-to-collapse.
- In-app bug reporting — report an issue without leaving the app.
