Full localization: Verso now speaks 16 languagesNo-Paper Mode scrolling fix for multi-page documentsCustom margins UX overhaul in the inspector
  • Every menu, label, tooltip, and inspector string in Verso is now fully localized into 16 languages: English, Japanese, Spanish, Arabic, Polish, Simplified Chinese, French, Korean, Italian, Russian, Dutch, Traditional Chinese, German, Turkish, Swedish, and Brazilian Portuguese. Verso follows your macOS language setting automatically.
  • Fixed a bug where No-Paper Mode could not scroll past the first page on long documents. The layout engine now updates the document frame progressively as text is laid out, with better initial height estimates and periodic frame recalculation.
  • Selecting 'Custom' in the margin dropdown now reliably shows editable fields for top, bottom, left, and right margins directly in the inspector. Previously, the picker could snap back to a named preset if the current values happened to match. Margin fields now include localized labels and unit indicators.

Customizable format bar: reorder and toggle toolbar groupsMermaid diagram rendering in Markdown documentsPinch-to-zoom, document outline sidebar, and style redefinitionTrack Changes now tracks bold and font formatting
  • The format bar is now fully customizable. Open View > Customize Format Bar to drag groups into your preferred order and toggle any group on or off. Your layout persists across sessions using dual-key storage, so hidden items stay in position.
  • Markdown documents containing Mermaid code blocks (flowcharts, sequence diagrams, Gantt charts, and more) now render as live diagrams directly in the editor.
  • Pinch-to-zoom on a trackpad lets you zoom in and out of your document fluidly. The document outline sidebar (View > Document Outline) shows all headings for quick navigation. Right-click any paragraph style to update it to match the current selection.
  • Track Changes now records bold and font formatting changes alongside insertions and deletions. A new Show/Hide Changes toggle lets you view or hide tracked revisions. Comment navigation with Prev/Next buttons and threaded comment replies round out the review workflow.
  • No-Paper Mode now supports character-column width presets, matching standard terminal widths for a more comfortable writing experience. DOCX round-trip preserves original stylesheets and custom styles more faithfully.
  • Bug fixes: page colour label clipping in the inspector, selection spanning Markdown markers, font popup not restoring current selection, and margin and content persistence on DOCX save/reopen.

Keyboard shortcuts for bullet and numbered listsMarkdown files (.md) open reliably from the Open dialogImproved margin and content persistence for DOCX
  • New keyboard shortcuts let you toggle bullet lists and numbered lists without reaching for the toolbar.
  • Fixed a regression where .md files could appear greyed out in the Open dialog on certain macOS configurations.
  • DOCX documents now preserve margins and content more reliably through save/reopen cycles. Debug logging was added to trace the full round-trip path and eliminate edge cases.
