Changes from 1.12 to 1.13:

New Features:

  • Completely new auto-type/URL placeholder replacement and field reference engine.

  • Added support for Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) paths (Windows) in the URL field (without cmd:// prefix).
  • Added command in the 'Tools' menu in the entry editing dialog to insert the default auto-type sequence into the notes.
  • On Windows Vista and higher, the read-only mode message box is displayed as a modern task dialog.
  • Added option to exclude expired entries in the 'Find' dialog.
  • Added advanced option to include expired entries in quick searches (toolbar; enabled by default).
  • Added advanced option to automatically sort items in the auto-type entry selection dialog (enabled by default).
  • Added advanced option to disable automatic clearing of the clipboard when closing/locking the database (default: clear).
  • Added Ctrl-Shift-F accelerator for the 'Find in this Group' main menu command.

  • When using PuTTY for ssh:// URLs, references within the user name field are now dereferenced.
  • Auto-type definition lines and field references generated by commands in the 'Tools' menu of the entry editing dialog are now appended to the notes instead of being inserted at top.
  • Improved UUID string parsing.
  • Improved cmd:// URL handling.
  • {VKEY xxx} now doesn't need to be initialized anymore using other auto-type special key codes.
  • Updated auto-type global hot key hint when registering fails.
