DEVONthink 3.8.2

What's new in this version:

New:
- New Enable/Disable Actions contextual and action menu items allow switching smart rules on or off.
- The new option Preferences > General > Interface > Document windows prefer fullscreen tells DEVONthink to open document windows in fullscreen if another of its windows is already in fullscreen.

Improved:
- Improved handling of aliases and symbolic links, e.g., when indexing, deleting, and opening items externally, as well as with the Data > Show in Finder and File > Update Indexed Items commands.
- Repairing a database via File > Verify & Repair Database marks as pending any imported documents shown as No File. This makes it possible to download these items from a sync location if they are still available in/from the sync location. Note: This does not apply to indexed items.
- Markdown transclusions referencing HTML documents or formatted notes now embed the HTML source instead of a conversion. In addition, referenced sheets are directly embedded as HTML, too, instead of Markdown as large sheets could crash the MultiMarkdown engine. Opening transcluded documents happens also faster.
- Improved conversions of sheets to plain text and Markdown as well as of rich text documents to Markdown.
- The toolbar search prefixes width, height, duration, hits, length, wordcount, charactercount, and size now support range operations, specifying the limits via prefix:lowerlimit-upperlimit. For example, width:1024-1280 is identical to width>=1024 width<=1280.
- Sorting by flag, e.g., by choosing View > Sort by Flag will now use the label color if Preferences > General > Appearance > Labels has been set to As flags.
- The Outgoing Links section of the Document > Links inspector now supports links in sheets.
- The user-agent string while clipping is more compatible to certain websites, e.g., arxiv.org.
- All smart rule scripts are now performed in the background. This improves the responsiveness of the application and fixes some rare freezes caused by JXA scripts.

Improved (Sync):
- In case of failed automatic verifications before synchronizing, a notification for each affected database is shown in Notification Center.

Fixed:
- PDF pages inserted into another PDF via dragging to the Document > Thumbnails inspector or copy/paste would yield blank pages with no content. Fixed.
- File > Updated Indexed Items and automatic updates after filesystem events didn't remove an item if an indexed file was moved from indexed folders in the Finder to other folders. Fixed.
- Markdown transclusions using the filename without an extension didn't work. Fixed.
- Text wrapping and the scrollbar didn't always work correctly after toggling between the preview and source views of web or Markdown documents. Fixed.
- Rich text documents wouldn't convert to Markdown correctly if the first line contained a colon. Fixed.
- A PDF could be marked as modified after clicking on internal links. Fixed.
- A toolbar search using the extension: search prefix didn't use all specified extensions when unneeded spaces were used, e.g., extension:png; pdf. Fixed.
- The Table of Contents inspector didn't display correctly with Markdown section headings containing escaped colons.
- The Table of Contents inspector didn't ignore emboldened or underlined lines not containing any alphanumerical characters in rich text documents. Fixed.
- File > Export > As website didn't export selected Markdown documents if the HTML entities option was disabled in the export options. Fixed.
- An incorrect number of occurrences was sometimes shown in the Search inspector for some PDFs. Fixed.
- The thumbnail of clipped PDFs could be transparent on recent macOS versions. Fixed.

Fixed (Sync):
- The warning that currently opened databases contain not yet downloaded items wasn't shown by Preferences > Sync before cleaning a complete sync location if the location wasn't selected first. The generic warning before cleaning was shown instead. Fixed.
- The garbage collection of sync stores could crash on rare occasions due to a multi-threading issue. Fixed.
- Unnecessary sync runs could be performed on quit if Synchronize: On Quit or Deactivation was enabled in Preferences > Sync. Fixed.
