• Change to the MemCnv() function with _MemDecBase64
  The function MemCnv() decoded incorrect data in the conversion mode _MemDecBase64 if it contained whitespace characters such as spaces and line breaks or non-permitted characters. Whitespace characters are now ignored and the error value _ErrData is returned for non-permitted characters. Fill characters at the end of the data (=) are optional.
• New options for the MemCnv() function
  With the new options _MemEncHex and _MemDecHex in the MemCnv() command, data can be encoded into or decoded from hexadecimal characters. Encoding doubles the amount of data, decoding halves it.

  In the new, optional argument of MemFindStr(), the search options that are already known from StrFind() can be specified.
• New option _MemKeyMem for MemHMAC()
  The new option _MemKeyMem for MemHMAC() defines that the key for the hash procedure is specified as a memory object in the new optional argument.

  Related article: Neues Ereignis EvtHelpTip
• Changed call of the event EvtMouseItem
  The call of EvtMouseItem has been changed for the DocView and RecView objects. In the DocView object, _WinHitCorner was previously transferred as aHitTest in the complete view area and _WinHitIvlRight in the corner between the scrollbars. Now _WinHitDocViewPage is transferred in the view area if a page has been clicked on and _WinHitNone if no page has been clicked on. The event is no longer triggered in the corner between the scrollbars and the EvtMouseItem is no longer triggered for the RecView object if the corner between the two scrollbars is clicked.
• Property wpFmtBoolStyle in the event EvtLstDataInit
  If the wpFmtBoolStyle property is set in EvtLstDataInit, this affects the current cell and not the entire column.
• The Page up and Page downv keys in combination with the Alt key now also trigger the EvtKeyItem event.

System (_Sys)

• Neue Eigenschaft spPathClient
  The spPathClient property of the _Sys object can be used to determine the path from which the respective client was started.

E-mail commands

• New option _MimeContentID for function MailData()
  To embed images in emails that are displayed on Apple devices, there is now the option _MimeContentID for MailData(). This must be specified together with _MimeRelated. The image must also be referenced both in the argument of MailData() and in the email in the form ‘cid:<Name>‘.

User commands

• New options for function UserInfo()
  The options _UserPlatform and _UserJobID can be used to determine the procedure environment and the job ID of a user. If it is a user logged in via the JobStart() function, the ID of the job is returned.

PDF processing

• PDF generation after failed PDF/A generation

• Icon display in the tab of a notebook page
  The Notebook object now supports the display of images in the NotebookPage tabs. The image is selected in the NotebookPage object. The properties wpImageTile and wpImageTileUser have been added there. The display option wpImageOption has been added to the Notebook object.

• New property spLclTimeLFormat for the Locale object
  The new property spLclTimeLFormat of the locale object can be used to define the long time format. Up to and including Windows Vista, this property has the same value as spLclTimeSFormat by default.
  Previously, the property spLclTimeSFormat (for the short time format) always returned the long time format under Windows 7 and Windows 8. This behavior has been corrected accordingly.
  In addition, the formatting character ‘T’ has been introduced for spLclTimeLFormat and spLclTimeSFormat, with which the complete symbol for the morning (spLclTimeSepAM) or afternoon (spLclTimeSepPM) is formatted into the time.

• Properties ppFontSizeTwips and ppLineSpacingTwips for the PrtRtf object
  Properties ppFontSizeTwips and ppLineSpacingTwips have been added to the PrtRtf object. ppFontSizeTwips defines the font size and ppLineSpacingTwips the line spacing. They always refer to the complete RTF document.
  ppFontSizeTwips is ignored for the value -1, ppLineSpacingTwips for _PrtRtfLineSpacingCurrent.
