  • There is no top border of a PaneGroup's header part in the VisualStudio2019 theme.

RichTextBox

FIXED
  • Binding error in SelectionMiniToolbar occurs when it is hovered after selection.
  • Forcing layout change in a task on the current synchronization context may result in a deadlock freeze.
  • Style is imported incorrectly as when there is Heading[1-6] inside the style name. This leads to ArgumentException in some cases.

  • When the EditRecurrence and EditAppointment dialogs are closed, an incorrect window is brought to front (not the one ScheduleView is placed inside).

SpreadProcessing

FIXED
  • The formula in list data validation rule's argument is replaced with culture-dependent list separator and later treated as text.

SyntaxEditor

NEW
  • Added separate CSharpFoldingTagger, VisualBasicFoldingTagger, and BracketFoldingTagger classes which can be used separately for making folding regions in C#, VB and JS files respectively. FoldingTaggerBase can be used for folding in custom languages.
