- variable mappings can use already mapped variables to resolve values.Item covered in #120
- more detailed progress bar for Automatically discover libraries from Robot Framework right-click menu
- top level entries (libraries) in library discovery summary report is now copy-able.This allows to copy libs names and install missing libraries to Robot
- filenames in tabs above editor can be prepanded with parent folder.Useful if filenames are not uniques in Project. Enabled by preference
- when setting Robot nature to Project, red.xml is not overwritten by default - proper user action is proposed
- #84 - references menu in source view - added view to source editor
- #95 - empty lines get removed when test case is edited from TestCases tab - empty lines should not be removed when changing from table to source editor
- #111 - In Debug Variable Panel difference between Robot Dict and Python Dict not visible - implemented

- #122 - red.xml charsets issues - encoding of red.xml is no in UTF-8
- #128 - better handle projects without red.xml - for now,projects without red.xml can use Robot and system variables. Handling built-in libs will be done later.
- #138 - do not override existing red.xml file

By default, Eclipse is shipped with limited heap size which impacts performance while working with bigger projects. It is recommended to increase Xmx and Xmx parameters to higher values. Memory allocation can be done via startup arguments or by editing eclipse.ini in Eclipse folder. We recommend to set following lines to eclipse.ini :
-vmargs
-Xms512m
-Xmx1024m
For details visit Eclipse Wiki: https://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_increase_the_heap_size_available_to_Eclipse%3F
We would appreciate any feedback about RED - Robot Editor, especially in every day functions like editors usability, false positive validation errors, problem with source parsing& coloring, performance etc. We are open for improvements and new functionalities. Fell free to create issue in GitHub issue tracker.
