- Added custom shortcuts for cut/copy/paste for pages (F1, F2, F3) and objects (F5, F6, F7)

2020-06-30:
- Added "Auto apply" setting, which applies changes automatically when you activate other objects or save
- Vertical lines didn't work when exporting to PDF
- Page orientation was still missing something, now it really should work when loading and exporting
- Some tweaking to default paths etc
- Hunted down an annoying GUI update bug which crashed randomly on OS4, and made some major internal changes as a workaround. It may still be an issue when adding new fonts, but can't do anything for it, probably a bug in OS4 MUI implementation or in their codesets.library, or who knows where.
- Added ability to create a PDF outline tree (table of contents), but unfortunately MUI's listtree class crashes badly on AROS/Zune and is unusable. Maybe I'll have to leave it out there for now :/
- Disabled the outline tree on AROS by default, but it can be enabled with the -outline cli argument or the OUTLINE tooltype if Listtree notifications would be fixed in newer Zune versions
- Waiting for some results and opinions from my regular betatester(s) who seem to be busy lately, still couple of things I want to talk with them.

[paolone]

Hi, just two questions


1. Chrome does not allow me to download anything from the hosting site tinyupload, for security reasons. Please put it elsewhere.


2. would I be allowed to add the final version of RNODTP to Icaros Desktop?


thanks and kind regards
