  • Tag and update x-refs when editing a portion of the document - when you are editing a portion of a document (see Opening and editing a portion of document) if you tag references or update existing references in the portion, Lawmaker can now use the whole of the document, not just the portion, to determine whether the reference is valid and to update it as necessary. See Cross-references (x-refs).

  • Copying provisions between documents - now handles correctly copying schedules between documents whether or not there is already a schedule in the target document. An issue with updating x-refs when pushing provisions into another document has also been resolved. See Copying provisions between documents - push/pull.

  • “Select x-ref to copy” menu in the Structure View - the minor issue where this menu wouldn’t automatically close after you’d selected something has been fixed. See Cross-references (x-refs) .

  • Amendment manager tab - a number of different improvements have been made here: the layout of the table of amendments has been modified so the columns are better sized according to their content; the filter button, enabling you to filter the amendments, by member, location etc. has been moved above the table to make it more prominent ( see Filtering amendments); the message shown when you have a temporary list open has been clarified; the table of amendments will no longer automatically refresh so long as you stay on the tab so you can rely on its content remaining static; and a separate refresh button has been added so you can manually trigger a refresh of the table when it suit you.

  • Preview and comment on amendments - Individual amendments can be quickly previewed from the Amendment Manager tab without opening the Editor. You can add or edit a comment on the amendment at the same time including adding a “quick comment”, a short phrase or sequence of letters, that you use repeatedly (e.g. to indicate approval). See Preview and comment on amendments.

  • Bulk update of proposers and supporters - the proposer and supporters on all or some amendments in an amendment list (whether draft or official) can be updated in a single action from the Editor. See Bulk update of proposers and supporters.

  • Copy amendments between stages - Selected amendments in the Amendment Manager Tab can now be copied from one stage to another, including being copied to ping pong. See Moving or copying amendments to a different stage (including ping pong motions).

  • Confirmation that amendments have been auto-applied - when you apply amendments to a Bill version, the message confirming the action is complete now specifies how many of the amendments were applied rather than just reporting successful completion. See Auto-application of amendments to a Bill version.

  • Sorting Commons amendments by topic - Using the Order of Consideration, you can add headings to generated marshalled lists and proceedings and select which amendments are grouped under each heading. See Creating an Order of Consideration.

  • Legend in Lords Daily sheet - you can now add a legend to the preface of a Lords Daily sheet.

  • Title of Scottish Parliament Marshalled Lists - when a marshalled list is generated at stage 3, the title is adjusted automatically to match the standard title used.
