thanks to everybody who have been involved with testing
build
1022. build 1023 is now available with many fixes,
and your feedback
has been very helpful in this matter.
please use only build 1023 for all testing purposes from
this point
forward, and keep communicating your
experiences.
for crash bugs, it's vitally important that all reports
include crash
dump information, and have specific
details on how the crash was
provoked, like what you
did, how many windows you had open, etc. the
more
specific you can be, the easier it is for us to examine
the
problem.
please reproduce the problem and pinpoint the method of how
to
reproduce it, before you file a report or post an article.
sincerely,
the opera windows team
changelog:
[core]
* codepage 932 (japanese shift-jis) removed from special
handling of
textout routines not needed because Japanese
Windows handles
western language perfectly as opposed to
Chinese
* Fix in commit of SSL options
* fixed bug
57049, 64420 and 57721. Starting more than one instance
of
Opera on Win2k systems would crash.
* Bug fix for
import from Netscape: Bookmarks with empty titles
could
damage the folder tree structure.
* Surrogates
were produced incorrectly because of a bad
bitmask.
Correcting this fixes bug #64208.
* Security
fix for loading of external images in mail and news
*
Hard return in bookmark description fields was replaced
with garbage
instead of space as intended.
* plugged
a serious memory leak that occured with certain gif
anims
where the last frame had the "remember and
restore BG" flag set.
[ui]
* made space for korean characters in the e-mail password
dialog
* made space for korean characters in the
download, name completion,
autoreload and cookie error
dialogs
* We now add the currently selected button set
from opera6.ini to the
top of the button set list if it
isn't there.
* fixed bug #65614:"No Search Engines
Displayed In Preferences"
side-effect: caused crash
when opening new windows
* fixed bug 58828 filename
collision would result in strange name
* fix for Alt-tab
always restoring focus to menu bar on Win9x systems.
*
Ctrl+Alt+A was seen as Ctrl+A in autocomplete fields
(forms, address
field) and this prevented the user to
enter AltGr+A with Polish
keyboard.
* fix for
tooltips box being too small (visible on far eastern
Win)
* attempt to fix a crash-on-exit bug when transfer
window is visible
* fix for opera opening with 2 windows
when in SDI mode and clicking a
link in another app
*
fix for popup progressbar covering parts of scrollbars.. it
will now
move out of the way again (same as in 5.x)
*
tuned the smooth scrolling some more. now it is off by
default; it
is only recommended for systems with pretty
fast cpu (>500mhz), but
much more importantly, pretty
fast gfx card (>=TNT2 etc)... and even
in that case
it is a matter of taste. Since we do not have
any
detection code for determining such fast setup or
not we default to
off to avoid users experiencing Opera
as slower... (smooth scrolling
will
always mean that
scrolling is indeed slower, but it's much easier on
the
eyes since there will be a transition effect towards the
new
position..)
* fixed RMB click on link context
menu (weird fix)
* fixed a crash when starting with
window setup containing pages with
very long titles
[adbanner]
* Changed priority to always be top-priority when new
banners are
loaded.
* Do not show click url for html
banners.
* Do not force html banners to be loaded from
cache.
* Added GuessCountry() method
* Changed
tag-string generation according to new requirements.
[install]
* when installing to a new catalog we now migrate MSIE's
proxy
settings
* will no longer change buttons if set
[mail]
* fix for email folder names with missing last character on
far
eastern Windows InsertMenuItem_O did not set the
length of the menu
item
name correctly
* Remove
bcc header from mail before sending
* fixed bug 56078,
not being able to reproduce the bug, but this
should fix
it. For those of you being able to reproduce the bug
please
test.
[script]
* Removed optimization that didn't quite work well.
