  • Fixed a bug where the paragraph following a horizontal ruler in the manuscript was indented. It now behaves like it does for other separators. By @vkbo. Issue #3074. PR #3076.

Improvements

  • Titles with line breaks in The Manuscript tool's outline tab no longer shows as multiple lines, but shows a line break symbol instead. PR #3078.

Other Changes
