  • Using Cordova device API's which are not yet supported by the simulator interrupts execution.
  • Adding Cordova plugin from Mist results in exception when project is opened in Graphite.
  • [Graphite] Version control conflicts in the project file cannot be resolved. A window for resultion will be displayed.
  • [Graphite] File save operations may not be executed when network condition is changed resulting in data loss.
  • [Graphite] Reordering of deeply nested folder structure might result in corruption of the project.

Mist is maturing

Version control support has been improved by adding the missing commands for collaboration - clone, push and pull from and to remote git repository (GitHub, BitBucket, etc.).

Find Dialog has been introduced. Press Ctrl+F to open the dialog . To Find Next: Enter or F3, find previous: Shift+Enter orShift+F3. Case-sensitive search and search with regex are supported. When Regex search is enabled case-sensitive search is disabled.
