* Update the Microsoft Edge Runtime installer to the latest version. This update includes all the supported flavors, that is, the full installer for both 32 and 64 bits and the downloadable installer for both 32 and 64 bits. These installers are used by DecSoft HTML Compiler to offer the preview of your HTML apps inside the IDE, and, also, optionally (it's completely up to you as you probably already know) to be included by your app compiled executables.

* We discover a rare bug which is caused when try to load the app icon (not all, only some specific app icon files) in the app options dialog. This rare bug can cause an unexpected behaviour in the program, however, the "wrong icon" may can be used in the app executables, so, we decide to remove the "icon preview" from the app options dialog, avoiding this rare error and therefore the possible program unexpected behaviour.

* Add the new Fullscreen sample, which explore the usage of the newrecently added app.external.appEnterFullscreen() function and
theapp.external.appExitFullscreen() function.
* Add the new function app.external.appEnterFullscreen() and the new function app.external.appExitFullscreen(), which allows to set the app window in fullscreen mode or exit from the fullscreen mode.

* Update the Bootstrap CSS framework (CSS and javascript) to the latest 5.3.0 (alpha2) version for the program's welcome page, program's help and program's about. This version of Bootstrap CSS includes a lot of changes, fixes and enhancements.

* Update the jQuery javascript library to the latest version. This means the jQuery javascript library used in the product "read me" file, the product About page, the product Welcome page, the product help and some sample apps who uses it.

* Fixed a bug in the XML library used to work with the project XML files which causes that we can't properly retrieve previously saved data (in CDATA nodes) containing two closing square brackets without spaces: "]]". Sometimes it's possible to "simply" place some space between the brackets, but, the better way to solve this is the way in which this release act: using a fixed XML library which now have no problems to deal with the referred two closing square brackets. This fixed bug is more important in our DecSoft App Builder product, however, since DecSoft HTML Compiler uses the same XML library to work with the project XML files.

* Enhance the product help in order to describe the functionallity of the recently added dhc.getBorder() and dhc.setBorder() javascript external functions.
* Enhance the Window sample app in order to incorporate the recently added dhc.getBorder() and dhc.setBorder() javascript external functions.
* Add the new javascript external function dhc.setBorder() which give us the ability to establish at runtime the app window border that we can also establish at designtime.
* Add the new javascript external function dhc.getBorder() which give us the ability to know at runtime the app window border established in the app at designtime.
ed release of the product, that you can download from your DecSoft customer area. Whish you the best for you and your family in this new year!

* Update the Microsoft Edge Runtime installer to the latest version. This update includes all the supported flavors, that is, the full installer for both 32 and 64 bits and the downloadable installer for both 32 and 64 bits.
* By some kind of "tradition" (probably from the arrival of XHTML long time ago) we start to use trailing slashes in void HTML elements, like images, breaks, horizontal rules, inputs, etc. That trailing slashes in such elements are not certainly required (talking about HTML), and, in fact, if we validate the HTML markup using the W3C validator, for example, we get an "info" reminder us that that trailing slashes for void elements are not really required in HTML documents. Well. We remove from our mind that "tradition" and therefore remove the referred trailing slashes from the DecSoft website and all our products. In particular, in this product we remove the referred trailing slashes from the HTML of the welcome page, about page, help pages and app samples.

* After 26 releases in 2022, here is the first release of the product in 2023. This is a major release of the product, means if you purchase your license before 01-01-2022, you must purchase an update license (with a 50% off discount) or continue using your outdated license with the last outdated release of the product, that you can download from your DecSoft customer area. Whish you the best for you and your family in this new year!

* Due to a stupid bandwidth starvation attack to our server, we are obligated to perform some changes in how the product updater works. This means two things: this release made the right changes in order to get the updater working as expected after the referred changes, and, unfortunatelly, the previous release of the product cannot be updated using the product updater. We apologize for the possible inconveniences. If you are trying to update the product to this release using the product updater, please, just download the latest release of the product from our website.

* Update the Bootstrap CSS framework (incuding the CSS and javascript) to the latest 5.2.3 version for the program's welcome page, program's help and program's about.

* Update the Bootstrap CSS framework (incuding the CSS and javascript) to the latest 5.2.2 version for the program's welcome page, program's help and program's about.

* Add the WinSize sample app, which show us how to use the recently added dhc.window.getSize() and dhc.window.setSize(), in order to save the position and size of the app window when it's closed, and, set the saved position and size when the app is started again, in this case saving the information in a JSON file.
* Add the new dhc.window.setSize() javascript external function. With this function we can establish the position (top and left) and the size (width and height) of our app window in runtime. We can configure the app position and size at designtime already, and, with this function, we can set it now also at runtime.
* Add the new dhc.window.getSize() javascript external function. We can use this function to retrieve the current app window position (top and left) and size (width and height) at runtime. We can use this information, for example, to use it when the app is closed, and, therefore, load it when the app is started.

* Add the new TrayMenu, TrayIcon and TrayIcon2 sample apps. These apps shows how we can use the recently added javascript external functions and events related with the app tray icon and the app tray icon menu. The product help has been also updated in order to incorporate these new stuff related with the app tray icon and the app tray icon menu.
* Add the new dhc.events.onTrayMenuItemClick() javascript external function. This function / event is called when the user click on an item of the app tray icon menu and receives the item ID which has been clicked as an argument. Take a look at the product help and also at the TrayMenu sample app to see this function / event in action.
* Add the new dhc.events.onTrayIconclick() javascript external function. This function / event is called when the user click on the app tray icon. Take a look at the product help and also at the TrayMenu, TrayIcon and TrayIcon2 sample apps to see this function / event in action, and, also to look at the related tray icon new external functions.
* Add the new dhc.trayMenu.hideIcon() javascript external function. With this function we can hide the app tray icon if we previously show it by using the also new dhc.trayMenu.showIcon() javascript external function. Take a look at the TrayIcon and TrayIcon2 sample apps to see this in action.
* Add the new dhc.trayMenu.showIcon() javascript external function. This function can be called (at runtime) in order to show the app tray icon in the system tray. The behaviour of the dhc.window.setState() action has been changed in order to minimize the app into the system tray (hidden it from the task bar) if the tray icon is shown. This allows us, for example, to start the app running in the background / system tray. Take a look at the TrayIcon2 sample app to see this in action.
* Add the new dhc.trayMenu.updateItem() javascript external function. This function works in a similar way than the already existing dhc.mainMenu.updateItem() and update an specific item of the app tray icon menu. Take a look at the product help and also at the TrayMenu sample app to see this new external function in action.
* Add the new dhc.trayMenu.setItems() javascript external function. This function works in a similar way than the already existing dhc.mainMenu.setItems() and set the app tray icon menu items. Take a look at the product help and also at the TrayMenu sample app to see this new external function in action.
