New ScreenSteps 2.8 Beta Available

We just posted build 14 of the ScreenSteps 2.8 beta. In addition to numerous bug fixes, we also found time to add a couple of enhancements:

• The tag widget for a lesson now expands to show all tags.
• Holding down the Option key (Mac) or Alt key (Windows) when exporting a lesson or manual to PDF or DOCX will open the file in the default application rather than revealing the file.
• You can now customize the “Table of Contents” bookmark label for PDF templates.
• ScreenSteps now looks for a preference file alongside the application when launching. This allows you to store ScreenSteps and your registration/pref info on a USB drive.
• Links are no longer carried over to the next line when adding a carriage return to lesson description/step instructions.
• Updating a lesson on WordPress now overwrites existing images rather than making new ones (you will need to upload your lesson at least once with 2.8 for this to work).

This build of the beta has the final revision of the UI. At this point we are preparing for release and will be focusing on any bug reports we get. Test away!
