Password Safe 3.37 Release Notes - October 2015 =============================================== This note describe the new features, fixed bugs and known problems with the latest versions of Password Safe. For a short description of Password Safe, please see the accompanying README.txt file. For more information on the product and the project, please visit http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net. Details about changes to older releases may be found in the file ChangeLog.txt. New Features for 3.37 ===================== [] The Notes External Editor now accepts environment strings (e.g. %windir%) in the path to the editor. [789] If the double-click action (or shift-double-click) of an entry is set to Edit/View Entry, then (shift-) double-clicking on its shortcut will edit/view the base entry. The selected shortcut entry can still be viewed/edited via menu, right-click or just hitting Enter. [782] Notes field font is now user-configurable. [781] Virtual Keyboard - allow playing sound when a valid or invalid key is pressed and add caption to the Space Bar (Partial implementation of this Feature Request). Bugs fixed in 3.37 ================== [1274] References to base entries are now scrollable, no longer truncated. [1273] Find in the Tree View will now ensure that any found entry will be visible by scrolling appropriately. [1272] XML export of single entry using default Password policy now works correctly. [1270] Display Filter dropdown list of filter fields now fits on low resolution screens. [1269] Filters containing Password Policy Names now export/import correctly to/from XML. [1267] Export from a YubiKey-protected database to another database fixed. [1261] 'Unlock Difficulty' slider is now correctly initialised in the Manage Options Security tab. [1260] If Password Safe is unable to find the user specified external editor, the external edit is cancelled and the Notes field remains unchanged. [1258] Group dropdown box width no longer trucates long group paths. [1254] Toolbar customisation now has correctly aligned text/images. [1244] Changes to symbol set in default password policy are respected when "Use easy-to-read characters" is set. [1230] "Open as read-only" check-box correctly set when opening a R/W database after previously opening/selecting a R-O database. [1204] Show correct icon color in system tray when unminimizing with no database open. [1124] Autotype on a shortcut entry now picks up title, group and user fields from shortcut instead of base. [1082] Field modification times set to creation time for list view and entry's time and date tab. This is more useful than "N/A", e.g., for sorting by password modification to find old passwords that should be changed. [1054] Password Variable in Run Command correctly set when executed from an alias. New Features for 3.36 ===================== [] Entries and Groups can be exported to plain text, XML, or to a new PasswordSafe file. [777] Added command line option to force choice of tall or wide dialog screens. [772] Added a tooltip for the copy-to-clipboard button in the generator. [768] Caps Lock indicator added to passphrase entry dialogs. Bugs fixed in 3.36 ================== [1248] Non-ASCII symbols can now be specified in Password Policies. [1245] Asterisk is now accepted as a symbol in Password Policies. [1233] Don't count unchecked character types in password policies when checking for consistency. [1231] Relax restriction on easy-vision password policy + more consistent UI. [1229] Hex digits checkbox can be selected in Generate Passwords. [1228] Fixed incompatability with Password Policies generated with previous versions. [1226] Fixed regression in Find toolbar functionality. Bugs fixed in 3.35 ================== [1221] Support newer YubiKeys in all modes. [1212] In the Flattened List view, keep the icon column, if present, as leftmost, to ensure proper display. [1211] The Read-Only checkbox no longer clears itself after returning from the file selection dialog. Also, the read-only checkbox in XP file selection dialog is handled correctly. [1210] CurrentFile preference is updated sooner rather than later, so last database is set as default for next invocation. Changes to Existing Features in 3.35 ==================================== [760] Password Policy: You can now choose a character set without requiring at least one character from that set (i.e., minimum required can be zero). New Features for 3.34.1 ======================= [753] A Password Safe database can be opened by drag & drop to the Password Safe application window. [749] Clicking or double-clicking on a previous password in an entry's Password History selects it. [746] Password Policy "Special Symbol Set" simplified. Changes to Existing Features in 3.34.1 ====================================== [397] Clarified use of -g and PWS_PREFSDIR.

[1134] Filtering by type now works correctly for shortcuts & shortcut bases. [1130] Database field isn't highlighted when it doesn't have the focus.
