Fixed duplicate 'White Space' menu item: Resolved an issue causing two "White Space" options to appear in the document menu bar on iOS 26. Special Note: Major upgrades are coming soon to the benefits and features included with the MAX version. Stay tuned!

Improvements: • New Sidebar Comment Feature: Users can now add comments directly in the document sidebar, improving annotation efficiency and readability. • Quick Tab Close Function: Added the ability to quickly close tabs, making it easier to manage multi-tab browsing. • Optimized Margin Display Logic: Adjusted the margin width display and now supports simultaneous use of sidebar margin and embedded margin for a more balanced visual layout. • Improved Split View Interaction: Refined the behavior and saving mechanism of “Split View” versus “Attached Notebook.” A new entry has been added to the document “…” menu for opening attached notebooks independently. • Translation No Longer Automatically Creates Excerpts: Inserting blank space for translation no longer generates excerpts by default, aligning better with actual usage habits. • Card Grouping Board View Now Available in Pro Version: The Card Grouping Board feature has been moved from the Max version to the Pro version. Bug Fixes: • Fixed an issue where PDFs with large blank margins would stutter when scrolling, improving overall smoothness. • Resolved lag during the playback and switching of review cards, significantly enhancing the performance for large study sets during entry, navigation, and review. • Fixed an issue where cards without a title or excerpt could not enable the fill-in-the-blank feature when added to reviews. • Resolved a problem where more than 1000 review cards could not be sorted after filtering. • Fixed a bug where handwritten content in newly created notebooks could not be copied after being referenced. • Fixed the issue where the “Copy” button for translations would not disappear automatically after being tapped. • Fixed the inability to scroll in the custom tools settings interface. • Fixed an issue where auto-generated tags by the excerpt tool in review card groups could not be searched. • Fixed abnormal behavior of the “Clear” button when adding documents from the Study Set document interface. • Resolved a display issue where text inside text boxes turned white when Dark Mode was enabled on Mac. • Fixed an issue in the English interface where short translation content would cause the “Target language” label to be cut off and overlap with the “Copy” button.

The selection menu item supports customization. Fixed a startup crash issue. Fixed the issue that pressing the Esc key during review would cause the interface to become messy. Fixed the issue that adding a document would cause the original directory to be lost. Added a paste function to the mind map focus mode.

Optimized the layout mode of the document directory and changed it to Dock mode. Optimized the black bar menu of the selection area to avoid the problem of the menu being too long. Optimized the language settings of the translation. Fixed several bugs.

• Fixed an issue where certain devices experienced frequent crashes after the previous update. • Raised the standard for automatically enabling auxiliary excerpting, now requiring a higher memory configuration. • Added a toggle setting for auxiliary excerpting in the app settings. • Corrected the previous update’s description regarding one-click excerpting: the one-click excerpt function still requires MAX to be enabled, while other assistive excerpt features have been moved to PRO. • Fixed the issue where opening password-protected PDFs repeatedly triggered the password prompt. • Fixed an issue with merging document notebooks. • Changed the photo capture feature on document pages and mind maps to use a system scanner for taking photos. • Fixed the issue where full-text PDF indexes could not be shared across different database channels.

Optimizations: • Added a photo capture and image insertion feature in the document interface. • Optimized the white space function to support saving rich text content. • Enhanced text box editing logic, fixing issues with layout disorder and abnormal text positioning upon exit. • Improved the stability of synchronizing handwritten annotations between mind maps and documents. • Allowed the main document and the attached notebook to be the same document in dual-text comparison mode. • Enhanced the auxiliary excerpt feature to support more precise block recognition (the one-click excerpt function has been moved to the PRO version and is enabled by default on devices with over 4GB of RAM). Fixes: • Fixed the issue where the disappearing pen in documents did not automatically vanish. • Resolved the problem where attached notebooks could not be added to study sets and disassociation failed. • Corrected the issue where selected fonts reverted to the default during subsequent edits. • Fixed the Markdown syntax not rendering correctly when exporting outlines as PDF. • Resolved the issue in the mind map card editor where pasting rich text failed on the first attempt and fonts were inconsistent. • Fixed the lag when opening review card groups in certain study sets. • Corrected the misrecognition of full-width punctuation as half-width in Chinese text excerpts from PDFs. • Fixed the crash issue during polygon excerpts in PDFs. • Resolved synchronization issues with handwritten annotations and the disappearance of original annotations. • Corrected the problem where mind map card links shifted upward unexpectedly. • Resolved the issue where automatically added tags were not searchable within review card groups. • Corrected the issue with the handwritten layer bound to cards: when switching handwritten layers, writing on the book will no longer inadvertently trigger the card; you must adjust the excerpt range and refresh the card for the changes to take effect.

• Added a PDF page rotation feature. • Handwriting synchronization between Mind Map and Document is now enabled by default. • Fixed an issue where the popup margin could not scroll or disappeared abnormally during scrolling. • Adjusted the logic for handwriting gestures in the Mind Map. • Fixed a crash issue that occurred immediately upon launching the app with certain PDFs. • Fixed display issues with certain PDFs after the 18.2/15.2 updates. Changes related to text boxes and labels have been postponed to the next version.
