References that refer back to a previously mentioned Act or SI etc., e.g. “section 7 of that Act”
References that are external due to their context but don’t directly include the title of the Act or SI etc., e.g. references in provisions following a statement like “Section 32 of the Criminal Justice Act 2000 is amended as follows.”
References that rely on defined names for an Act or SI rather than its proper name, e.g. “Regulation 17 of the 2009 Regulations”, so long as the name is defined in the same document somewhere.
See Cross-references (x-refs) References and Guide to x-ref changes in version 17 .
Referencing toolbar
The new referencing toolbar (accessible by double clicking on a reference) makes it easy to complete a number of actions directly in the Editor.
...
Dates in the date block that are left empty now automatically show as three asterisks “***”.
If all the paragraphs within a regulation or article are deleted other than one, the remaining paragraph is automatically unwrapped so an undivided regulation or article is left.
The banner is now locked in the Editor to prevent accidental changes. It will still update automatically if the procedure is changed.
The content of the subject, title and number blocks at the beginning of an SI are now locked in the main Editor window to prevent accidental changes. You can still update the subject by clicking on it and selecting the appropriate subjects in the dialog box. The title and number can still be updated via the Document Information panel on the right.
The list of available subjects in the Subjects dialog box has been updated.
OFGEM and OFCOM have been added as new Lawmaker organisations.
