Column drag selection

You can now drag select across columns, to delete content or apply formatting, as with table cells.

JoomlArt T4 Framework support

The T4 Template Framework, used by JoomlArt templates, generates a compiled css file when changes are made to template options. As with other template frameworks, the editor will now use the latest available compiled css file to style the editor content, for a closer match to front-end styling.

This is a maintenance update to fix a number of bugs reported since the last release. A couple of small improvments have also been added:

• Blockquote formatting in Word documents will now be converted to <blockquote> tags when pasted into the editor.
• The Columns tools now include an Extra Large option for the Stack Width.

• The Basic Dialog in the Image Manager and Media Manager now includes an upload button to directly upload and select an image or video. Drag & drop upload is also supported, by dropping an image or video onto the URL field.

This update fixes a number of bugs reported since the last release, and adds a few new features and improvements, including:

• The JCE File Browser is now available in "Repeatable" or "Sub Form" Media Fields. This does not include the ability to drag & drop upload into the media field itself, as is possible with non-repetable media fields.
• It is now possible to re-apply the last action to a new selection using the CTRL + ALT + Z keyboard shortcut. For example, if you apply a style from the Styles list to a selection, you can then make a new selection and re-apply the style using the keyboard shortcut, without having to re-select the style from the Styles list.

This update fixes a number of bugs reported since the last release, and adds a few new features and improvements.

New features include options to set Startup Content for the editor, Media Previews of <video> and <audio> content, and webp support in the Image Editor and Create Thumbnail tools (which are also now available in the File Manager and File Browser). We've also added the option to set “quotes” on a selection using CTRL + SHIFT + ". When using a German language pack, CTRL + SHIFT + 2 will result in „quote“.

Video parameters - autoplay, loop, controls etc. - are now passed to MediaBox when creating a popup in the Media Manager, and embedding Youtube and Vimeo videos using a pasted in URL or the Quick Media input will now use relevant options set in the Media Manager parameters.

JCE Pro is also currently being tested on PHP 8, with no major issues found in JCE Pro 2.9.2.

UPDATE: JCE Pro 2.9.1 has been released to fix a bug where pressing backspace in the editor when editing specific content would cause the browser to hang.

This update consolidates and builds on the new features and enhancements introduced in JCE Pro 2.8 and includes a number of new features of its own, as well as the usual stash of bug fixes.

Primarily aimed at power users and site admins, the new features include a new way to manage code in the editor with Code Blocks, a Text Editor for editing text-like files such as html, txt, md and json, and options to set restrictions on iframe urls. We've also made some changes to the JCE Admin layout, moving parameter descriptions into inline help boxes, and tweaked some layout stuff to get the editor Joomla 4 ready.
