A VoodooPad import puts your pictures beside your pages, not inside them. They used to be written into the page itself, as text. On a small wiki you would never notice; on an archive built up over decades the pictures can be most of what the document weighs. And because MojoPad reads all of a page before it can show it, that is a wait every time you open the wiki — for photographs you are not looking at. Beside the pages, they cost nothing until you look at one. A picture used on many pages is now stored once, which an archive built up over decades does constantly. And a picture that cannot be read says so where it was, instead of leaving a broken frame with no explanation — those were becoming references to files that were never there.
Saved web pages show their pictures again. A snapshot kept a note of the page it came from and left its shorter picture addresses to be worked out against it. Inside MojoPad they never were: the app refuses that note outright, on purpose, because it is the kind of thing a saved page could otherwise use to point somewhere it should not. So the addresses were worked out against MojoPad itself and every one of them failed — a busy article could show none of its pictures at all, and had done since the rule was written. The addresses are worked out properly now, when the page is saved — and old snapshots are repaired as they open, since the note they kept is exactly what was needed to fix them. Pictures the archive captured still show with no network at all; anything it did not capture comes from the original site, as it always meant to.
And saved web pages now keep their pictures, rather than borrowing them. A snapshot that points at the original site is only as durable as that site: the day it reorganises or closes, the page you saved precisely so you would still have it is a column of broken frames — and you find out years later, far too late to go back for them. It also meant a saved page could not be read on a train, and that opening your own notes told the site you had done so. The pictures are fetched once now, as the page is saved, and kept in your document. For pages saved before this, Keep This Saved Page’s Pictures in the Document in the command palette does the same for one you already have, and tells you if anything has gone missing in the meantime. A page is never allowed to send MojoPad to an address on your own network or machine, and nothing that comes back is stored unless it is a picture.
Your VoodooPad to-do lists arrive as to-do lists. A checkbox in VoodooPad is not a character, it is a small file tucked inside the page — so a page of them came across as a column of broken attachments, which is a poor welcome for a list you have kept for years. They are real to-do rows now, each still ticked or unticked as you left it, and a run of them gathered into one list the way it looked on the page. Anything else the page carried that cannot be found now says so, instead of pointing at a file that was never there.
You can choose how many copies of a document to keep. MojoPad zips a complete copy of each document when it opens and hourly while it changes, and kept the eight most recent. Eight is invisible at a few megabytes and quite different at a gigabyte and a half, where it quietly asks for twelve gigabytes of a disk you may not have. Settings ▸ Files & Backups ▸ Copies to keep of each document, anything from one to fifty. Two things that were never said out loud and now are, in the manual and in the diagnostic report: old copies are cleared when that document is copied again, so a document you have stopped opening keeps everything it has — and deleting copies by hand has always been perfectly safe.
The diagnostic report was looking in the wrong place for your backups. It always read MojoPad’s own folder, so anyone who had pointed backups at another disk — which is exactly what someone short of room does — saw an empty list. It now reads the folder you chose, totals what is there, and names any document holding more copies than your setting, since those are the ones nothing will ever clear.
A summary no longer takes the place of what it summarised. Select some words, choose ✦ Summarize, and until now the summary replaced them — which is right for Tighten and Fix grammar, where keeping the sentence you asked to have corrected would be strange, and wrong for a summary. A reader had collected a quotation, summarised it, and watched the quotation go. There is a second button beside Apply now: Keep both puts the result underneath and leaves what you selected exactly where it was. Useful for Make a table too — you often want the table and the list it came from.
Side by Side gives up the rest of its margins. Two columns pay for their margins twice, which is why a 13-inch screen feels it and a large one does not. The last attempt shrank them in proportion to the display, which on any Mac you would actually work on came out at the number they already were — so the reader who asked sent a drawing with arrows pointing at the same gap. They are a plain twelve points now, on every screen, which is about 88 points of writing width back. The row carrying each column’s name is about a third shorter, with a smaller title, as he drew it.
One Full Screen in the View menu, not two. macOS puts its own full-screen item into any menu called View, and MojoPad was declaring one as well — with the same label, which is why they read as an exact duplicate rather than merely a spare. Ours is gone and the system’s stands alone; it also renames itself to Exit Full Screen once you are in it, which ours never did. One thing this costs: ⌃⌘F is no longer a shortcut for it — the system’s is fn F.
The Journal’s ↑ Today button has stopped standing on its neighbours. The bottom-right corner of the window has three tenants that arrived at different times and never introduced themselves: the microphone, the Relates to suggestions that appear as you write, and the Journal’s ↑ Today button. Two of them already made room for each other. Today did not — it was written as though the corner were empty, so it sat on the ✕ that dismisses the suggestions, on the microphone, and, with the Ask your wiki drawer open, on the drawer’s own text box while floating over the drawer entirely. It now lives in the same column as the writing it belongs to, keeps to the editor when the drawer opens, and parks above whatever else is in the corner rather than on top of it.
