RE: QOwnNotes - Kool - 02 April 26
26.4.0
LanguageTool ignored rules and ignored words are now persisted across application restarts; previously, ignored rules were only stored in memory and lost when the application was closed (for #3496)
Added a new "Ignore word" option to the LanguageTool context menu that allows ignoring specific words (e.g. proper nouns, technical terms) without disabling the entire rule; ignored words are persisted across restarts (for #3496)
Added "Reset ignored rules" and "Reset ignored words" buttons to the LanguageTool settings page to clear all previously ignored rules and words (for #3496)
The last selected Nextcloud Deck card is now re-selected after the card list is reloaded when a card is stored or the archived cards view is toggled (for #3357)
Fixed Nextcloud Deck card updating that caused HTTP 400 errors: the PUT request now uses the correct API v1.1 endpoint with the card's actual stackId in the URL path; the request body includes the required owner field (which the Deck server validates as mandatory), sends the card's real order value, always includes description, and explicitly sets duedate to null when no due date is selected; also fixed spurious QString::arg warnings in the error dialogs for card operations where placeholder indices were wrong, and added response body logging on errors for better diagnostics (for #3357)
Added more Russian, German, Chinese Simplified, Korean, Spanish, French, Polish translation (thank you, pbek, VenusGirl, AlejandroMoc, jd-develop, Fresta24)

26.4.1
Implemented QLiteHtml preview underline rendering so that when Enable underline rendering is turned on, Markdown like __underline__ and _underline_ is rendered as underlined text instead of bold or italic in the preview (for #3533)
Updated menu action text Use softwrap in note editor and preview to Use softwrap in note editor, since the QLiteHtml preview is always softwrapped for #2566)
Fixed the main window and panel sizes not being persisted when closing the application: resized dock panels, toolbar layout and the main window geometry are now stored during the actual close event and correctly restored on the next start (for #3532)
Changed the visual marker and wording for pinned note tabs: sticky tabs now use a pushpin symbol instead of a flag, and the related action and tooltip text now consistently refer to pinning and unpinning tabs (for #2595)
Fixed the read-only status bar button becoming visible even when note editing was allowed, which occurred when enabling the read-only mode feature for the first time in the settings and then closing the dialog; the toolbar action and the status bar button are now always kept in sync (for #3529)
Fixed a crash in the Find action command bar by hiding the Find action entry from the dialog itself, preventing recursive reopening of the command bar and the follow-up crash when another action was selected afterward (for #3530)

26.4.2
Improved lookup of the Bookmarks and Commands notes so they are now found in note subfolders too instead of only being effectively recognized in the note folder root, addressing Recognize the bookmarks file regardless of where it is (for #2518)
Fixed command snippet parsing for bash and sh code blocks so qc now uses the nearest preceding heading as the snippet description instead of being misled by an earlier heading in the note (for #2526)
Fixed the editor color schema color picker in the settings dialog so closing it without changing the selected color no longer reapplies the schema and reloads the note folder (for #3506)
Changed the built-in Light editor color schema so internal note links now use #fc8f00 as foreground color and #fff8ef as background color (for #2914)

26.4.3
When pressing Ctrl+F to open the search bar in the note text edit, the preview, or the QLiteHTML preview, any currently selected text will now always be placed into the search field (replacing any existing search text) and selected, making it easy to search for the highlighted word or phrase (for #3538)
Added a built-in MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that allows external AI agents to access notes via HTTP+SSE transport with Bearer token authentication, providing search_notes and fetch_note tools for AI-powered note retrieval (for #3536)
See MCP Server for documentation and usage instructions
Improved wiki-style link backlink detection so that all wiki link variants — including links with heading anchors like [[Note#Heading]], links with display-text aliases like [[Note|label]], and subfolder-qualified links with aliases or headings like [[sub/Note#H|label]] — are now correctly found and shown in the Backlinks navigation panel (for #3535)
Updated the system Botan integration to avoid Botan 3 deprecation warnings in the note encryption wrapper, improving compatibility with downstream builds such as NixOS/nixpkgs#505517 (for #3501)

26.4.4
Fixed a duplicate symbol assembler error in mcpservice.h when building with GCC 9 (Ubuntu Focal / Debian 11) caused by QStringLiteral being used in default function parameter values in a header file; replaced with QLatin1String to avoid the issue (for #3536)

26.4.5
Fixed a preview font size mismatch when using editor highlighting styles in the preview on high-DPI displays (particularly on Windows with desktop scaling): the pixel-to-point conversion formula in the QLiteHtml container was inverted, causing fonts stored with a pixel size to be rendered at a massively inflated point size (e.g. a 9pt font appearing as ~100pt at 250% scaling); the formula is now pt = px * 72 / DPI instead of pt = DPI * px / 72 (for #3539)
Fixed a possible crash (SIGSEGV) caused by inline markdown image previews for remote HTTP/HTTPS URLs performing a synchronous network download inside a paint event, which triggered a nested QEventLoop and caused Qt's widget repaint manager to re-enter itself recursively until the stack overflowed; remote images are now fetched asynchronously and the viewport is refreshed automatically once the download completes (for #1254)
When searching with selected text via Ctrl+F in the note text edit, the preview, or the QLiteHTML preview, the first result now highlights the originally selected occurrence instead of jumping to the next one, so the editor/view no longer scrolls away from the user's current position (for #3541)

26.4.6
Fixed a wrong settings path in portable mode when running as an AppImage launched from a desktop file (or any context where the working directory differs from the AppImage's directory): portableDataPath() was called before the QApplication object was constructed, so qApp was nullptr and the path fell back to "." (the current working directory) instead of the AppImage's directory; the function now directly reads the $APPIMAGE environment variable (always set by the AppImage runtime) when qApp is not yet available, and also accepts the argv[0] path as a fallback for non-AppImage portable builds to ensure the correct base directory is used in all cases (for #3542)
Trailing unbalanced brackets (), {}, [], and <> are now stripped from bare URLs during both syntax highlighting and Ctrl+Click link opening in the note text editor, so that URLs wrapped in parentheses or other bracket types are detected correctly (for #2510)
Fixed a build failure on Debian 9.0 (Qt 5.7.1) caused by the use of QNetworkRequest::RedirectPolicyAttribute and QNetworkRequest::NoLessSafeRedirectPolicy which were only introduced in Qt 5.9; the call is now guarded with #if QT_VERSION >= QT_VERSION_CHECK(5, 9, 0) (for #1254)

26.4.7
Opening the search bar in the note text edit, the preview, or the QLiteHTML preview now keeps the current horizontal and vertical scroll position during the initial search, so highlighting the first match no longer scrolls the view away from where you were reading (for #3541)
Updated the release workflow to build and publish the Qt6 Snap from build-systems/github/snap.qt6, so Snap Store installs now deliver the Qt6 package again, while the legacy Qt5 snap is still attached to releases under a separate asset name (for #3470)
Fixed the line and column status bar label being rendered too close to the window edge when the main window is maximized or fullscreen on some platforms/styles: the label had no internal horizontal padding, so it could appear cramped against the status bar border; it now uses left and right content margins like the other status bar controls (for #3543)

26.4.8
Fixed two possible shutdown crashes while quitting the application: on macOS the app no longer re-enters Qt's commitDataRequest quit path during the Cocoa termination flow, and on all platforms the log panel now stops appending rich text once application teardown has started, avoiding late UI updates from Qt log messages during shutdown (for #3546)
Updated the Launchpad snapcraft configuration in build-systems/snap/ to build the Ubuntu Snap with Qt6 on core24, aligned with the working GitHub Qt6 snap packaging so the Launchpad snap can ship the Qt6 build path as well (for #3470)

26.4.9
Extended the scripting engine's syntax highlighting support with custom colors and styles: addHighlightingRule now accepts an optional format map with foregroundColor, backgroundColor, bold, italic, underline, and fontSize properties, so scripts can define their own highlight colors instead of being limited to the predefined highlighting states (for #3549)
Added a new highlightingHook scripting hook that is called for each text block during syntax highlighting, allowing scripts to perform dynamic, context-aware highlighting with custom colors and styles (for #3549)
Fixed a possible startup crash when restoring the last opened note from note history while the note tree was enabled: history restoration searched the tree by note name and could match a folder item with the same label before the actual note, then dereferenced an item's missing parent; note-history restore now only considers note items and safely handles root notes (for #3547)
Added a Note search panel option to open notes in a new tab instead of replacing the active tab, for users who want note creation from the search panel to preserve their current tab context (for #2385)
Added Copy image to clipboard and Copy image file path actions to the QLiteHtml preview context menu when right-clicking preview images, so image content and the resolved local image path can be copied directly from the preview (for #1741)
Fixed disabled toolbar and action icons in dark mode not being grayed out consistently, including actions like Edit encrypted note and Decrypt note: disabled icons are now recolored through the interface proxy style using the palette's disabled icon/text color, so the fix applies consistently across the UI (for #2489)
26.4.10
- When a note is deleted, the application now checks for images and attachments referenced by the note that are not used in any other note and offers to delete those orphaned files after a confirmation dialog, also when multiple notes are deleted at once in the note tree (for #2121)
- Added a board / stack selector to the Nextcloud Deck card dialog below Search or create card, so cards can be listed and created in any available Deck stack without first changing the default Deck stack in the settings (for #3540)
- The old Nextcloud settings board/stack picker was removed so Deck selection is now handled directly in the dialog where the cards are managed
