Hi Carrigboy,

Yes, the only new "feature" in the tree was shifting toc elements by one and it probably broke something. Since the change is small, I will take a look at it and see where they messed up and fix it, or alternatively, I will revert that one "feature" since it does not work as it is supposed to.

Edit: Yes it is a bug introduced in the change. They use a list of Strings to represent then text of the toc entry and its target. The new code changes how that is done but forgets to load it into the correct spot in the list. I will fix that rebuild and repost, and then you should be good to go.


Happy to hear it helped. My guess is that the older Qt libraries in the original 0.7.4 is what was causing all of the crashes as the macdeployqt tool was quite broken. It would work fine for anyone who already had a Qt installed on their machine, but fail otherwise.

Take care,

KevinH

Just downloaded and installed your Sigil.dmg and it seems to work almost perfectly, thanks very much indeed.

Edit/add/delete metadata, images and fonts; delete/split/merge xhtml; id's, links, insert chr's etc; generate/create TOC — all ok

But, a strange glitch on editing the TOC. When adding a toc entry above or below an existing one, then selecting the target, it places the target address in the toc entry, so that the target address (ie 'Text/chapter1.xhtml') appears as the entry in the toc and the actual target is blank. It's a simple fix, just copy the address from the toc entry field to the target field and type in the entry field as usual.

Thanks again

I hope very much someone can take over the maintenance of Sigil and keep it going, I find it very straight forward to use.

Simon.

ps, and maybe unrelated, does the application 'MacFuse' have any bearing on this? I didn't install it, I don't think I have any 3rd-party file-structures and uninstalling it was going to be my next step.
