vnotex/vnote v4.10.0

on GitHub

A feature release with richer mind-map editing and exports, image viewing and self-contained encrypted notes on top of VNote 4.9.1:

• Mind maps
  • Add independent trees, full-branch duplication, and native node Copy/Paste with fresh IDs, preserved properties and internal links, visible selection and one-step undo
  • Add recursive Expand All and Collapse All to node context menus, including in read-only maps; put Copy/Paste directly below node creation
  • Add a layout menu and remember the default layout; support automatic section numbering with the shared editor numbering pattern
  • Insert images and hyperlinks from the clipboard, drag-and-drop, toolbar and context menu through shared dialogs; preserve existing topics for links and insert multi-item batches as one undoable command
  • Add icon and tag inputs to node context menus and Copy Link for node URLs; hide the unused Title field in mind-map image insertion dialogs
  • Open inline editing by double-clicking a topic label or blank node space, including empty topics, without interfering with images or expand/collapse controls
  • Honor rapid repeated expand/collapse clicks and keep hover feedback under a stationary pointer, including in read-only maps
  • Prioritize 173 curated productivity, project, diary, office and engineering emoji, including numbered keycaps 0-10, while retaining the full Unicode catalog and category order; add search keywords and theme-aware selection, hover and keyboard-target highlights
  • Make Shortcuts Help available from node and empty-space context menus, show its configured shortcut, and clarify the overlay instructions with bold key bindings
• Export
  • Export mind maps as readable Markdown, native HTML with selectable node text and inline SVG connectors, or PDF; include independent trees and preserve peer-root heading structure
  • HTML presents the full-width map at its natural size with topic links to continuous articles containing notes, images, icons, tags and links; PDF fits the map on the first page and keeps articles readable on subsequent pages
  • Use the live editor snapshot for Current Buffer exports and disk contents for Current Note and batch exports; wait for PDF images and fonts before printing and report rendering, timeout and output failures
• Images and Markdown
  • Open images in read-only tabs and expose image file associations in Settings
  • View Markdown and mind-map images in overlays with zoom, pan and reset-to-fit controls; support read-only maps and close protected image previews when notes are locked
  • Embed local images in WeChat and Evernote cross-copy, rasterize SVG graphs and MathJax, and render complete KaTeX formulas with embedded fonts and clear high-DPI output
  • Preserve the edit cursor and selection when returning from Markdown read mode if the mapped position is already visible (#2768); add Select All to the read-mode context menu
• Encrypted notes
  • Make newly encrypted notes and backups self-contained: each v2 .vne carries its wrapped keys instead of depending on a shared notebook vault
  • Migrate legacy notes and backups on writable open without rewriting encrypted payloads; read-only opens leave files unchanged, shared master-password unlocking remains available, and old vaults are retained for unmigrated notes and historical copies
  • Older VNote versions cannot read v2 encrypted notes
  • Fix encrypted-note opens silently failing during notebook maintenance; self-contained notes no longer need a migration lease, and protected-open errors reach the unlock UI
• Interface and reliability
  • Remember Markdown read zoom, shared text-editor zoom and mind-map fixed or Fit zoom in session state; remove redundant Settings zoom controls and show whole percentages without reducing actual mind-map zoom precision
  • Remember Comments and Tools dock sizes across editor switches and restarts, and use icon-only View and Settings menus in the main toolbar
  • Closing a detached window closes its tabs instead of reattaching them to the main window
  • Show note sizes in Properties using human-friendly units
  • Remove obsolete attachment entries during Scan after external renames or deletions, even when no new files are found (#2771), and restore the Scan tooltip
  • Keep Lucius tree selections distinct from hover highlights when unfocused and preserve text-selection visibility while hovering inputs and spin boxes
  • Add testing-only --no-single-instance to bypass the instance lock and IPC; use a separate disposable portable profile and test data because configuration and notebooks are not isolated
  • Fix libgit2 runtime consistency and encrypted-note, sync-dialog and mind-map integration regression fixtures
• Translations: Simplified Chinese (zh_CN), Japanese (ja) and Korean (ko) catalogs updated
