RELEASE - Fantasia Archive 0.1.5a
Added 2021-04-20 21:14:00 +0000 UTCThis release is a little unusual as it is neither a full-blown release nor a hotfix. This version is more or less a reaction to a new Fantasia Archive category that opened up on Cartography Assets and allows for uploading of existing projects/templates for projects that people can use to kick-start their worlds.
The new addition allows just for this and more, as the "Merge" functionality lets the user import data from such project into their already existing project without any data loss occurring and the data organically merging together in a form that is further useable - as if the user filled it in by hand.
Except for this major functionality, the update brings a few more additions, some bug fixes, and one band-aid fix for the performance issues currently plaguing the app: A toggle switch for the hierarchical tree that is responsible for a massive part of the performance issues right now - I urge all that are suffering from crashes and white screens to give this functionality a chance.
To highlight the most striking features from this update:
- Merge projects functionality
- Hierarchical tree toggle
- Reordering of list value in all types of fields in all document edit mode

Changelog
0.1.5a
Known issues
- POSSIBLY FIXED: When creating a brand new project, Fantasia Archive sometimes doesn't load the default categories in the left hierarchical tree. A temporary workaround before the issue is fixed is restarting the program - the project stays intact, can be normally edited and no data loss occurs.
- POSSIBLY FIXED: Some users report that dialog (popups) don't function the very first time you start FA. This is solved by restarting the application. The bug doesn't seem to appear again once FA has been started at least once before.
- Overusing Tags currently causes app crashes on some PCs. If you suffer from this issue, reduce the number of tags in your project below 10.
Bugfixes
- Fixed a bug of edit mode "Open in new window" buttons being on a higher level than the document control bar and rendering over it
