Sigil-2.6.2
Sigil 2.6.2 is a mixture of bugfixes and new features.
New Features
- enable use of the fetch api in Sigil internal "sigil:" scheme
- create PreviewFileDialog to append thumbnail previews for images and selected text files when used in non-native dialog mode. Leave native dialog mode untouched.
- added environment variable to revert to previous Sigil behavior of using native file dialog for "Add Existing": SIGIL_FORCE_NATIVE_FILE_DIALOG=1 (Note: due to the crash-happy nature of using native file dialogs in Qt, you are on your own if any issues arise from enabling this).
- added environment variable to turn off use of custom icons to make "Add Existing ..." work better over networked storage with lots of files: SIGIL_NO_CUSTOM_DIRECTORY_ICONS=1 (only used with non-native file dialog).
- BookBrowser now has a "View Image" pop-up menu item that allows users to see what any image (SVG included) without having to open a full Tab
- make CV understand the media-types of the file it is editing so that it can better create pop-up menu items like "View Image" when editing an SVG
- add support for "env-vars.txt" in Sigil Prefs folder, uses VARIABLE=VALUE one per line
- completely revamped the AppImage CI builds to use Docker images
