Tree
* Added: the charactermap now also works when node editor is active. This means that you can insert special characters
in the node title while you are editing it.
* Added: the menu items 'Format/Convert/To Uppercase', 'Format/Convert/To Lowercase',
'Format/Convert/To Sentence case', 'Format/Convert/To Title case' and 'Format/Convert/Invert case'
can now be applied to the title of the current tree node as well (when the tree has focus but not while you are editing a node title).
Format
* Improved: the case-conversion options in 'Menu: Format/Convert' now also work on characters inside the upper half of
the extended ascii character table (the Windows ISO-1252 character table). This includes letters such as
'a' with grave, 'a' with acute, 'c' with cedilla, the letter 'ae', etc.
Statusbar
* Changed: by default the path of the selected node is shown in the statusbar (instead of the folder of the active database).
'Children' Accessory pane
* Added: a new Accessory pane 'Children' which shows a list of the titles of all the child nodes of the selected tree node,
as well as the date on which these items were changed.
* Added: to open the 'Children' Accessory pane, just click on the new button 'Children' below the article.
* Added: the new 'Children' pane allows for very powerful dual-pane drag-drop operations, much like the mass node mover
dialog already does. To move a node to a new location, just drag-drop an item from the 'Children' list into the tree pane.
* Added: you can sort the Children list according to 'Date changed' and 'Node title' by clicking on the corresponding column header.
* Added: alternate navigation. If you double click on an item in the 'Children', list TreePad will navigate to that node.
Options screen
* Added: an option to adjust the statusbar so that it either displays the path of the selected tree node or the folder of the active
database. You can find this new option in the category 'Infobars'.
Compatibility
* Improved: this new version is compatible with all currently available 64 bit Windows editions.
* Improved: this new version now also complies with the /3Gb boot.ini switch in 32 bit Windows XP and Vista.

June 09, 2008
Free upgrade for registered users
Multi-monitor support
* Added: a button to the 'View' toolbar which enables one to send TreePad to a different monitor.
Up to eight monitors are supported. This feature only works when you have two or more monitors
connected to your computer, and Windows needs to have the option
'Extend my Windows destkop onto this monitor' enabled for the additional monitors in the control panel.
Install/uninstall
* Added: automatic uninstaller icon to the TreePad program group (only visible after using install.exe)
* Added: an entry inside the Windows control panel (category 'add remove programs') which can activate the automatic TreePad uninstaller. Please note that this control panel entry is only visible after previously having used install.exe to install TreePad X Enterprise.

Compatibility
* Improved: both the installer and the program itself are now compatible with all available DEP settings in Windows Vista and Windows XP (DEP = Data Execution Prevention
and can be found in the Windows control panel).
Database
Added: database properties dialog (Menu: Database/Properties)
Hyperlinks
* Added: one can now change the path for relative file hyperlinks.
The database properties dialog can be used to set the base path for relative file
hyperlinks. E.g. if you set the base path to 'd:\mydata\' then the relative link 'docs\invoicetemplate1.pdf' points to:
'd:\mydata\docs\invoicetemplate1.pdf'.
Consequently, if you move the target files to e.g. 'e:\docs\' you only need to update the base path (using the database properties dialog) to make the relative file hyperlnks function again.
* Added: if you specify an empty base path in the database properties dialog (default), the situation is as before:
relative links are relative to the location of the current database directory.
Website export
* Improved Website search engine:
* When you enter multiple words in the search box separated by spaces, TreePad Web-search now will return the pages that contain all these words.
* To search for a phrase, now just put quotes around it. For example: "millions of people" will return all pages
containing the exact phrase millions of people.
* More complex search phrases are now also possible. Example: when you enter "millions of people" employee company hire,
Web-search will return all pages containing the exact phrase "millions of people", as well as the words employee,
company and hire.
* Improved: search results are now sorted according to the number of occurrences (of the search words and phrases) in the articles.
* Added: a 'Search help and tips' document which is part of the generated Website.
* Added: a link inside the search form to the 'Search Help and Tips' document.
Skins
* Changed: skin 'Purple' has been renamed to 'Purple 1'.
* Added: a new skin called 'Purple 2'.
* Improved: the looks of the skins 'Purple 1', 'Blue Sky', 'Blue metallic' and 'Green'.
Shortcut keys
* Added: ctrl-1 .... ctrl-9 in the tree navigates to items in the bookmarks pane.
* Added: ctrl-0 navigates to the root node.

Free upgrade for registered users
Website export
* Added: a built-in Website search engine. You can enable/disable the TreePad Web-search engine in the tab 'Search engine' inside the Website export dialog.
Please note that the Website search engine is a PHP script which needs to be uploaded to the Internet in order to function.
* Added: a link inside the navigate panel titled 'search'. When you have enabled the 'Search engine' option, you also need to enable the 'navigate panel' option
for generated Websites, because currently the 'search link' inside the navigate panel is the only method of accessing the search engine.
Tree
* Added: support for node templates. When a node is designated to be a 'template base' for the subtree, all newly created descendant nodes will contain the
template article text and template images by default. Currently the template resides inside the article of the node which is the template base.
* Added: the node properties screen now contains a checkbox 'Is template base' where one can make any node a 'template base' (of its own subtree).
* Added: the 'New node' dialog. Inserting a new node inside a template-controlled subtree will result in showing the 'new node' dialog. This dialog presents you with
the option of inserting a node using the current template, or a blank node (ignoring the template).
* Added: a template node can be distinguished (from regular nodes) by a little mark which is visible on the left-hand side of the node-icon.
Settings
* Added: a new tab 'template options'. It contains the checkbox titled 'When adding a node show the insert dialog'.
If this option is enabled, then inserting a node inside a template-controlled subtree will result in showing the 'New node' dialog (which is described above).
When this option is not enabled, inserting a node inside a template-controlled subtree will always result in inserting a new node using the current template.
New features in version 7.9.4

Tree
* Added: internal tree clipboard. Copy/paste subtree now uses the internal tree clipboard by default, which is much faster (than the external tree clipboard).
As before, you can use the internal tree clipboard to copy/paste subtrees inside the same database, as well as between different databases which are
open inside the same program, but not to/from other TreePad programs which might be running (in order to do this, you need to utilize the external tree clipboard as before).
* Fixed: the function 'Navigate the tree using alphabet keys' (in the new tree control) is now working to content.
Settings
* Added: new category 'Tree clipboard'. You can now choose whether the internal or external tree clipboard will be used during subtree copy/paste operations.
The internal clipboard (recommended) is the default. The external clipboard is only required now when a tree is pasted/copied to/from another TreePad program
* Added: Improved: the default tab size and page margin settings can now be entered using a comma or period as decimal separator, regardless of the
language settings of the operating system.
Hyperlinks
* Improved: node hyperlinks are preserved during subtree transfer to another database (= drag-drop a subtree onto a database button).
* Improved: when pasting a subtree multiple times into the same database (using the internal tree clipboard), node-hyperlinks
(which point to nodes inside this subtree) are preserved and will continue to point to nodes inside the subtree.
The same holds true when transferring a subtree more than once to another database.
Article
* Fixed: the table of contents (all levels) now correctly displays indentation (i.e., the link-references to children, grand-children, etc. nodes are properly indented) when inserted.
See Menu: Insert/Table of Contents/Subtree all levels
* Added: a new toolbar button for 'Save article'
* Changed: the button 'Store article' (which appears only when you move your mouse to the bottom right-hand side of an edited article), has been renamed to 'Save article'.
Database
* Added: enhanced text filtering. In case the clipboard contains invalid character codes these will no longer be pasted into the article but filtered out.
Valid for Menu: Edit/Paste and Menu: Edit/Paste special/Paste as text.

* Bugfix: the meta-title is now included again in the exported Website.
Hyperlinks
* Added: one can now insert relative hyperlinks (optional) to files through Menu: Insert/Hyperlink,
* Added: by drag-dropping files onto the article one can now insert relative hyperlinks (if the option is enabled in the options screen).
* Added by Menu: Insert/Link(s) to files one can now insert relative hyperlinks (if the option is enabled in the options screen).
Options screen:
* Added: the default caption of a new node can now also be 'a number according to the position in the list'. (category: Tree/Node options).
* Added: 'File hyperlinks created with drag-drop are relative' (category: Article/Hyperlinks).
* Added: 'hyperlinks created with Menu: Insert/Links to files are relative' (category: Article/Hyperlinks).
Search
* Added: one can now generate a list of nodes which contain attachments. To locate nodes containing attachments
(inside the entire tree or the selected subtree), first open the tree search dialog.
You can leave the search-items empty if you wish, then enable the option 'Search nodes containing attachments' in the 'search range tab' before you start the search.
Shortcut keys:
* Reintroduced: when the tree has focus and the node editor is not open, pressing the 'enter' keyboard key will insert a new sibling node after the selected node.

Tree
* Improved: new tree control. The old third-party tree control has been replaced by a new solution created by us from scratch.
* Improved: tree operations, such as drag-drop, have been speeded up (because now, in most cases, the tree does not need to be reloaded anymore).
* You can now modify the type of tree drag-drop operation during a drag-drop operation, instead of only before, by pressing ctrl or shift.
The drag-cursor will change accordingly. Pressing ctrl inserts the selected node before the dropsite node, pressing shift inserts the selected node after the dropsite node,
in all other cases the selected node is inserted as last child of the dropsite node.
* Improved: Menu: Insert "date", "time", "date+time" and "specified date" now also functions when the node editor is active.
More specifically, the date/time is inserted at the cursor position.
* Added: the keyboard shortcut "F4" scrolls the selected node into view.
Options
* Added: it is now possible to store the tree state of each database between sessions (which nodes are expanded/collapsed and selected). Options screen, category: tree
Import/Export
* Improved: the direct transfer function of subtrees between databases (= drag-drop of a node into a database button) has been speeded up. The destination tree no longer needs to be reloaded.
Registration
* Improved: new registration reminder screen
* Added: one can now load/save registration number to/from a text file (just right-click on the textarea in the registration screen).
* Added: when running the program from a USB drive on a non-registered computer, the program still shows the registration screen, but now the registration screen is pre-loaded
with your registration number (from the text file "tpreg.txt" which is created after entering your registration number once).
In other words, when running the program from USB drive on an unregistered computer you will no longer have to (1) open a file containing the registration
number in a separate program, (2) select it, and (3) copy/paste it into the registration screen. All that is now done automatically.
Compatibility
* Improved: the installer of the self-installing package is now compatible with Windows Vista.

* Added: you can pass up to eight directories (containing TPX databases) as command-line parameters. These databases will then automatically load (without showing the quick start dialog) upon program startup.
For example: TreePadXEnterprise.exe "d:\db\tpxdatabase1" "c:\tpxdatabase2" "d:\data\tpxdatabase3"
Drag-drop
