Manula Changelog: What's New in the Manula software (Page 17)

In the Manual Setting screen, the tabs for adding Languages and Versions were cumbersome and inconsistent, that is, using a different UI for a similar task. So we fixed it.

Adding Languages

The Languages tab now allows the adding of multiple languages in one go, without closing the screen.
Select a new language from the drop-down at the bottom, then click Add to add it to the list. Repeat for more languages. Finally, use Save Changes to close the screen and apply all added languages.

Adding versions

Same here, now allows adding multiple versions in one go.
Click the Add button to make a new version row appear, then fill in the fields. Repeat to add more versions and click the Save Changes button to save your additions.

Small fix the manual editor:

When using double quotes (“..”) in the Topic Title, the Title would be cut off after saving.

A small fix to an annoying issue in the Manual Editor:

Using the TAB key while in the Topic Title box now nicely tabs to the Topic Body box.

(Previously, it tabbed to the header (h2, h3, etc..) button on the toolbar.)

It is now possible to add captions to the images you include in your manual topics.

First, use the Image Manager to set a Caption for your images:

Then, when inserting an image, check the “Show caption” checkbox.

The result in your live manual:

A small tweak the manual editor’s toolbar:

The header button (for inserting h2, h3, h4 headings) now remembers the last header level you used. Meaning that next time, you can just click the button to insert the same header, without using the drop-down list.

• New Account Setting: Company Website.
• New Account Setting to change the destination of the Company Name link in the top bar of live manuals. Choose from:
  • Company hub page (the home of all your manuals at Manula.com)
  • Company website (set your Company Website using the new Account Setting, see above)

To improve security, the entire Manula admin system (on the admin.manula.com domain) runs on the HTTPS protocol.

All live manuals can now (optionally) be accessed over HTTPS.
E.g. https://www.manula.com/manuals/proton27/manula

This is useful if you want to integrate your manual into an iframe within a website that runs on HTTPS.

Added three languages to the manual language choices:
Chinese (Traditional), Chinese (Simplified) and Japanese.

• All “interface” texts in the generated PDF manuals can now be localized too.
• Localizations are currently available in English, Dutch, German and Italian.
