What's new in v.17.1?

Version 17.1.0 is a minor release contains some bug fixes and minor feature improvements.

It was released on 25 September 2024.

References

(LDAPP-4498, LDAPP-4497)

References within a document (both internal and external references) are now locked to prevent direct editing of them in the Editor (as trailed at the time of the release of v.17.0)

To change the reference text, you can double click on the reference and select Edit ref to bring up a dialog allowing references to be edited. Editing the reference text field will not now change the status of the reference - only editing one of the other fields will do that. That means that editing the reference text field will not prevent the Update references operation updating the edited reference in future.

Running lists

(LDAPP-4462)

The list generation and updating logic for Lords Running lists has been updated to automatically assign black stars to new amendments in the same way as presently happens with marshalled lists.
