Release highlights

We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 5 v31.1.0.

This release introduces the following new features:

• Support for Shift+Delete on Windows to cut the selected content.
• Possibility to open a link with Ctrl/Cmd+click or Alt+Enter.
• Mark the default output for features in the HTML output guide.

There were also a few bug fixes:

• Selection was sometimes not merged correctly.
• It was almost impossible to click certain buttons in the balloon toolbar (Safari, iOS).
• The editor builder defaultConfig.language did not apply to editor.locale.
• Find and replace did not find whole words that are next to each other.
• Figure tag got duplicated when the General HTML Support configuration allows all.

MINOR BREAKING CHANGES ℹ️

• table: Changed table elements' attributes' names introduced by the TablePropertiesEditing plugin by prefixing them with table to be in line with other plugins' attributes naming. The affected attribute include: borderStyle, borderColor, borderWidth, backgroundColor, alignment, width, height. See #9369.
• table: Changed tableCell elements' attributes' names introduced by the TableCellPropertiesEditing plugin by prefixing them with tableCell to be in line with other plugins' attribute naming. The affected attributes include: backgroundColor, padding, width, height, borderStyle, borderColor, borderWidth, verticalAlignment, horizontalAlignment. See #9369.
• table: The upcastBorderStyles() helper parameters were modified (added the modelAttributes param).

Features

• comments: Introduced the AnnotationsUIs#refilterAnnotations() method which runs annotation UI filtering callback against all annotations and moves them to proper annotation UIs (or removes them).
• link: Added the possibility to open a link by Ctrl/Cmd+click or Alt+Enter. Closes #1381. (commit)
• track-changes: Introduced color boxes for color-related suggestions.
• utils: Introduced env.isiOS for detection of user agents running in iOS environments (see #7707). (commit)

Bug fixes

• core: Support language configuration passed in defaultConfig option through editor's constructor. Closes #8510. (commit)
• engine: Merge intersecting ranges that are not adjacent to each other on ranges array. Closes #10628. (commit)
• find-and-replace: Replace functionality no longer replaces text when 'Replace with...' input is focused and user hits the Enter key but the search criteria changed. Closes #10712. (commit)
• find-and-replace: Fixed adjacent whole words being missed by find and replace. Closes #10719. (commit)

• image: The <figure> element should not get replicated while GHS is enabled. Closes #10279. (commit)
• real-time-collaboration: The whole reconnection mechanism was improved. More reconnection scenarios are now handled without editor crashing or data loss. Note: these changes require Collaboration Server On-Premises in version higher than 4.2.0. Otherwise, the fix will not be applied.

Other changes

• engine: Allowed unsafe view element attributes so they get rendered in the editing pipeline. Attribute names can be specified when creating elements using DowncastWriter (DowncastWriter#createAttributeElement(), DowncastWriter#createContainerElement(), etc.). (commit)
• track-changes: Changed suggestion description for a highlighted text fragment.
• typing: Added support for the Shift+Delete keystroke on Windows to cut the selected content. Closes #9326. (commit)
