OmniFocus for Mac 2.5.1

April 15, 2016

Requires OS X 10.10

OmniFocus 2.5.1 adds News and fixes bugs:

  • News — Added a way for us to tell you about important stuff like OS updates that might break compatibility. You’ll be notified about news via text in OmniFocus’ title bar, and not by OS X notifications or anything else that might interrupt your workflow.
  • Correct Spelling Automatically — Fixed a bug where changes to “Correct spelling automatically” in OmniFocus wouldn’t stick.
  • Key Loop — The tab key now behaves more sensibly in most situations.
  • Crash — Fixed a crash switching Font Collections while a note field was open for editing.
  • Text Layout — Fixed a number of layout problems, especially on OS X 10.10.
  • Sidebar — Fixed a visual glitch in the form of an errant horizontal line.
  • Georgia Font Collection — Made the sidebar tab titles bold to improve legibility.
  • Notes — Fixed some problems with notes not updating on theme change.
  • Performance — Fixed poor performance due to a large number of completed items in a given container.
  • Clean-up — Fixed a problem where items dragged to Inbox would be immediately cleaned up, so the drag appeared to have no effect.
  • Theme Changes — Fixed a problem where badge colors failed to update on theme change.
  • Russian — Fixed alignment problems in Sync Preferences.
  • Japanese — Fixed a layout problem in the About window after purchasing Pro.

OmniFocus for Mac 2.5

March 28, 2016

Requires OS X 10.10

OmniFocus 2.5 for Mac adds a Style preference pane that lets you customize OmniFocus visually.

  • Styles — Added a Style Preference Pane, where you can choose between built-in font and color collections or import and export your own.
  • Crash Recovery — If the app was launched with the Shift key held, we now reset style preferences to their default values so you can work around launch crashes triggered by bad style customizations.
  • Sync — Added a quiescence timer so that we can block integrating sync changes while you are actively typing (these integrations could cause inadvertent deletion, especially in notes and titles).
  • Dates — Inherited dates are now italicized to differentiate them from explicitly-set dates.
  • Outline View — The outline now always reclaims space after a selection change that changes row heights.
  • Switching Apps — We now commit partial edits when switching to another application with an outline or inspector field active.
  • Clippings — Updated the OmniPlan Clipping handler to work with OmniPlan 3.
  • Project Order — Fixed a long-standing bug where the order of Projects would get re-arranged temporarily. This also sometimes affected re-ordering the sidebar manually.
  • Sync Setup — We now present a helpful error when an account can’t be found, rather than a rather un-helpful one.
  • Inspector — Inspector text fields (including Note) now retain focus when switching between applications.
  • Search — The Go to Search Field menu item no longer stops working after editing the toolbar.
  • TextExpander — Fill-in Snippets once again work in the Sidebar.
  • Crash — Fixed a crash opening an image attachment that was pasted from OmniGraffle.
  • Sidebar Badges — Fixed a problem with sidebar badges when transitioning from one digit to two (or vice versa) being displayed in the badge.
  • Push — Fixed a bug where “Initializing” would show indefinitely after enabling push.
  • Calendar Apps — When clicking “View in Calendar”, if Fantastical or BusyCal is set as your default calendar app, the day containing the event being inspected will be opened in that application instead of Apple Calendar.
  • Type-Ahead Selection — Type-ahead selection has been disabled to avoid some situations where it could result in inadvertent deletion of items.
  • Outlining Keyboard Shortcuts — Bare reorganize right ‘r’ in the sidebar outline is now disabled if the operation would cause the item’s type to be converted and disappear from the sidebar.
  • Localizations — Localized some previously-un-localized items. Fixed a bug in Chinese where the review intervals in Dates & Times Preferences use the same character for days, weeks, and months. More work remains.
  • Documentation — Updated the In-App Help.
