Bugfixes
- Fixed a crash inside Qt triggered by the current line highlight in the editor, seen in the Flatpak on Fedora. The highlight is now drawn behind the document instead of as a text selection, which also stops it interfering with other highlights. By @vkbo. Issue #3141. PR #3143.
- Fixed a bug where custom document margins in the manuscript build settings were reset to default for the ODT, DOCX and PDF formats, and in the preview. By @vkbo. Issue #3136. PR #3137.
- Fixed a bug where nested and unclosed formatting tags were only resolved for HTML and EPUB manuscript formats, which could produce invalid Markdown and unexpected formatting in other formats. By @vkbo. Discussed in #3142. PR #3145.
- Fixed a bug where typing immediately after a word highlighted by the search tool in the editor would extend the highlight onto the typed text. By @vkbo. Issue #3105. PR #3108.
- Fixed a bug where removing the heading from a document did not update the index, leaving its icon in the project tree unchanged. By @vkbo. Issue #3132. PR #3135.
