DEVONthink Standard for Mac3.8

With so many improvements made and functions added, this update is almost an upgrade. The summary would be far too long to list them all, so here are a few of the high points.

To help ensure your databases are healthy, we've added another mechanism that logs the state of each file, called a checksum, in your database. Occasionally, use the new Check File Integrity command and script to verify the files are intact. As linking becomes increasingly commonplace, WikiLinks can now be converted to more "stable" item links. You also can now update the link text for an item link if you've renamed the linked file. Additionally, DEVONthink now has another way of seeing relationships between documents: a new Document > Mentions inspector that lists documents that mention the name or aliases of a selected document in their contents. You can see where the mention occurs and there is a new Summarize Mentions command to gather those mentions into one document. When searching, you can set a preference to set a default search scope for toolbar searches, e.g., Inboxes. And the See Also & Classify inspector now presents options to match items by tags instead of content and also can limit the suggestions to the current database. For the automators, seasoned and new, JXA (JavaScript for Automation) scripts can now be edited in the embedded editor and executed in smart rules and reminder alarms. The AppleScript dictionary has several new commands and properties.

Markdown fans will see more improvements including setting formatting via hotkeys, e.g., ⌘B to type in bold, and automatically continued lists where pressing Return in a list will insert a new list item. In the Markdown preferences, specify a default JavaScript to apply to all Markdown files. Dropping, pasting, and inserting pictures into a Markdown document can now automatically add the images directly to a group with a user-specified name, with links added to the document by DEVONthink. PDF annotators will appreciate new highlight, underline, and strike through tools that are persistent until you change the tool.

An important feature for people who index files, a Select option has been added to the Path dropdown in the Generic Info inspector. This allows you to select the moved item in its new location and have the indexed children detected properly. Since files often travel outside of macOS, e.g., through Dropbox, DEVONthink can now preferentially replace OS-unsafe characters in a filename. We also made some cosmetic changes to the interface. This includes rearranging some of the preferences to make them appear more consistent between the old and new versions of macOS.

Regarding syncing, we made more improvements to our sync engine to try and circumvent the roadblocks remote sync options can present. We have fixed several bugs and crashes and, as always, improved the performance and reliability.

New

• DEVONthink stores now an SHA1 hash of a database's file contents. This can be used to detect data degradation in the current database. The check can be done manually via the newly added File > Check File Integrity command or with the script Scripts > Data > Check file integrity of all databases.
• Added support for mentions. The new Document > Mentions inspector lists content matches based on the name or alias of the selected item and the menu command Tools > Summarize Mentions creates a summary document of all mentions of the selected items. It is also possible to summarize the mentions of a tag, e.g., to create a report for a certain topic.
• Added options Based on content and Based on tags to the See Also & Classify inspector. The default is to match by content. The Current database only option limits the results to the current database.
• Added a Select menu item to the Path popup of the Info inspector. This allows you to easily choose and update the path of indexed files or folders that have been moved from their originally indexed location. Only files with the exact name and extension can be updated.
• Added new menu items, Highlight, Underline, and Strike Through, to the Tools > Annotate menu. Choosing these annotation modes applies the selected format to the current text selection of PDF documents but the tool remains persistent until changed allowing for quicker annotating by merely selecting text.
• Added simple support for smart numbered or bulleted lists and checkboxes in Markdown documents. After pressing Return, the next line inherits the previous line's list-item type and indent level.
• Added Preferences > General > More compatible naming of files. This option replaces the characters |<>%?&*" when naming files to improve the compatibility with other filesystems and platforms, e.g., Dropbox or OneDrive. Forward slashes and colons are always replaced as these are reserved by macOS. Note this has been the default behavior of DEVONthink but can be disabled with this option.
• Added annotation file options in Preferences > General. This includes: In shared group or In same group as well as the option Move annotations automatically. The former option creates the annotation document in the Annotations group in the root of the database or in the same group as the source document. The latter option moves the annotation document when the source document is moved to another database, or deletes the document if the source file is deleted.
• Added Preferences > General > Search Scope to specify the default search scope for toolbar searches, either Last scope, All databases, or Current database. The default is Last scope.
• Added Preferences > General > Automatically select search inspector to switch to the Search inspector if the view/edit pane and inspectors are already visible when doing a toolbar search in the database.
• Added option Preferences > General > Automatically reveal items. After switching tabs, going back or forward in the view/edit pane, or clicking on item links in documents, the currently previewed item in main windows is automatically revealed in the item list. This option is off by default.
• Added Preferences > Files > Markdown > Force line breaks, optionally making it unnecessary to add double spaces before line breaks manually.
• Added Preferences > Files > Markdown > Images > Import images to group to specify the destination group for pasted or dropped images, e.g., images copied or dragged and dropped from the Finder or a browser. The group is created if necessary.
• Added Preferences > Files > Markdown > Summaries > Quote highlights. After enabling this option, highlighted content in the original document is presented as a series of blockquotes instead of highlighted paragraphs.
• Added Side-by-Side option to Preferences > Files > Markdown > Markdown Display. In addition, the default mode is now Editing.
• Added Preferences > RSS > Check for updates > After synchronizing the database. This setting is especially useful if a database with RSS feeds is synchronized between multiple Macs as it helps ensure all machines are in the same state.
• Added Open option to reminders to replace the "Open Documents" reminder script. However, the script will not be removed from existing installations, in case it's in use.
• Added database thumbnail to File > Database Properties to allow changing the icon of databases.
• Added command File > Import > Bookmarks from HTML file to retrieve bookmarks from one or more HTML files, e.g., from an exported Safari bookmark file. One group is created per file and each bookmark is automatically named.
• Added Format > Line Wrapping to toggle line wrapping while editing text.
• Added Format > Wiki Linking to easily toggle automatic WikiLinking in the current document.
• Added Tools > Item Links > Convert WikiLinks to Item Links. WikiLinks in the selected plain text, rich text, and Markdown documents are converted to their corresponding item links.
• Added Tools > Item Links > Update Names of Item Links. The displayed names of item links in the selected and unlocked rich text and Markdown documents are updated. Named linked images using item links in Markdown documents are also updated.
• Added command Go > To Link to open a link at the current cursor position in plain text, rich text, and Markdown documents.
• Added new Move Focus menu items to the Go menu: to Sidebar, to View, to Preview, and to Inspector. Each command also has its own shortcut.
• Added shortcut ⌘⌃⌥O to the Annotations popup in the Document > Annotations inspector to open the linked annotation in a new window.
• Added Comments field to the Voice Note, Video Note, and Screen Capture views of the Sorter.
• Added new default smart rules Create Version and Remove Obsolete Versions for simple file versioning. The first one should be performed before saving, the second one periodically, e.g., before synchronizing. Exclude the group Versions from search if you don't want old versions to be part of toolbar search results.
• Added Apply Rule smart rule action to perform the actions of another smart rule. Note the items passed by the initial smart rule must match the criteria of the second smart rule to trigger it. This is especially useful after performing actions like OCR or executing scripts and can avoid redundant or scheduled smart rules.
• Added Open smart rule action, e.g. to open new documents after creating them.
• Added JavaScript options to the smart rule "Execute Script" action and reminder alarms, allowing for use of JavaScript for Automation (JXA) scripts.
• Added new AppleScript open internally type to reminder alarms.
• Added script Scripts > Edit > Replace Text in Documents. This script supports replacing text in both plain and rich text documents.
• Added AppleScript command summarize mentions of records.
• Added AppleScript command check file integrity of database to check the data integrity of files and document packages. It returns the number of documents having a checksum discrepancy. The new record property content hash returns the stored SHA1 hash values of files and document packages.
• Added name and tags parameters to the AppleScript command display group selector to enable fields to enter name and tags. The command returns now either the selected group (without name and tags parameters) due to compatibility to older versions or a dictionary containing the key-value pairs "group" and optionally "name" and "tags" (with name and/or tags parameters).
• Added exclude subgroups and highlight occurrences properties to the AppleScript support of smart groups, including use with the create record with command.
• Added duration record property to AppleScript for use with audio and video files.
• Added JavaScript option in Preferences > Files > Markdown to specify a default JavaScript script, applied to all Markdown files.
• Added location group AppleScript property returning the group of a record's location.
• Added optional open parameter to x-devonthink://search? item links to always open the search in a new window, e.g., x-devonthink://search?query=text:sync%20Bonjour&open=1.
• Added hidden preference EnableAutomaticConsolidation to automatically move indexed items into the database after moving them from an indexed group to an internal group. This option is disabled by default.
• Added hidden preference DontAutomaticallyEnableOperatorsOptionOfSearchInspector to prevent enabling the Operators & Wildcards option of the Search inspector after a toolbar search.
• Added hidden preference DisableFileCoordination to disable file coordination as this can cause large delays on some systems.
• Added hidden preference RawMarkdownPasting to avoid the conversion or formatting of links or rich text content when pasting into a Markdown file. This option is off by default.

New (Pro)

• Added command Tools > Sheets > Delete Records, making it possible to add a user-defined shortcut, if desired.

Improved

• A warning is now logged to the Log window after opening databases located on network volumes. Using wirelessly connected volumes is highly discouraged.
• Tabs of main and document windows can now be reordered via drag-and-drop. Also, spring-loading is supported, e.g., to drop files into an inactive rich text tab, on macOS Big Sur and later. If there are a large number of tabs, you can scroll though them. Lastly, inactive tabs can be closed without having to select them first.
• If the background process for clipping web content fails consistently, it will now relaunch itself.
• Automatic verification of databases before syncing is now faster, potentially alleviating some slowdowns in the application.
• The toolbar search now supports the abbreviated syntax s: for specifying the search scope. Also, the synonym all, targeting all open databases, has been added to the current list of scopes: databases, database, inboxes, inbox (i.e., the Global Inbox), tags, trash, selection, or the name of a specific database.
• The name of global smart groups and smart rules in the Navigate sidebar is now color coded. Grey: the targeted database is not open; red: the targeted database is open but the targeted group cannot be found.
• Moved the Import preferences to Preferences > Files to make the preferences more consistent and to ensure all preference panes are visible on macOS Big Sur and later.
• Improved creating replicants via drag-and-drop.
• Moving or duplicating tagged items from one database to another adds aliases of the source tags to existing destination tags when necessary.
• You can now Control-drop compatible items, e.g., images and text documents, into a Markdown document to insert a transclusion link.
• The Markdown editor now supports autocompletion for transclusion links beginning with the standard {{ or alternative ![[ syntax. Depending on the locations of the source and destination record, a filename, relative path, or item link is inserted. This also supports image transclusions as an alternative to drag-and-drop.
• The conversion of hashtags to tags now also supports tags specified as MultiMarkdown or YAML metadata, e.g., tags: tag1, tag2, tag3.
• Improved WYSIWYG editing of Markdown documents in regards to formatting and MathJAX.
• Improved handling of the Editing bar, the Format menu, and keyboard shortcuts when editing Markdown documents. Commands can now be used to insert new formatted text, e.g., inserting control characters to type bold text.

• Improved recognition of PDF duplicates if stricter recognition is disabled.
• Changed the underline and strike-through color in PDF documents from black to red.
• The contextual menu item Quick Look Attachments in text views now supports links in plain text and Markdown documents as well as automatic WikiLinks in plain text, rich text, and Markdown documents. Also, selecting a block of text containing multiple links opens a Quick Look window for all links.
• Hanzi double square brackets typed in plain text, rich text, and Markdown documents are automatically replaced with ASCII square brackets if automatic WikiLinking based on square brackets is enabled.
• Indexing of item links now ignores self-referencing links in a document. These links are not counted toward incoming or outgoing item links.
• Clicking a link in a web document which opens an external application, e.g., an email link, will bring the external application to the front if the Shift key is held.
• Only indexed audio files inside the ~/Music directory are still played via Quick Look, e.g., to show album art. All other indexed audio files use the standard controls already used for imported audio files. In this case it's also possible to insert back links to a certain time in the Annotations & Reminders inspector.
• There is now specific support for creating thumbnails for YouTube video bookmarks via Data > Thumbnails, smart rules, or enabling the Bookmarks option in Preferences > Files > Thumbnails.
• Document and main windows are now constrained to their screen after attaching or detaching external monitors.
• Windows in full screen document mode are excluded from window tiling.
• If the number of unread items in a group, smart group, or feed is identical to the total number of items, only the number is shown instead of identical numbers, e.g., 4/4.

• The Annotations & Reminders inspector now supports the Insert Link popover in the Annotation field.
• The Table of Contents inspector now supports Markdown headings specifying an identifier, e.g. # Heading [myID], used for internal document anchors.
• The Content > Table of Contents inspector now supports Markdown transclusion. Transcluded sections are displayed in italics. Note: Scrolling to sections only applies to the rendered preview, not the editable source. It also now detects and displays HTML header elements (H1-H7) in web documents and views.
• The Type column of the Document > Annotations inspector now displays icons for the annotation type with PDF annotations. With rich text documents, highlight annotations just show the color.
• The Document > Links inspector supports WikiLinks added to rich text files via Format > Make Link. It also now ignores WikiLinks to items in the Trash.
• The keyboard shortcut ⌥↩ can be used to replicate items via the See Also & Classify inspector while the search field has the focus.
