Keytips: Word for Windows' tab letters (#922)
Observed in Word for Windows (Microsoft 365): pressing Alt badges the tabs File F, Home H, Insert N, Design G, Layout P, References S, Mailings M, Review R, View W, Help Y, and the Search box Q. Before, WordCraft used Design L, References R, Review S and View V, and File and Help had no letter, so Alt, W or Alt, R went to the wrong tab for anyone used to Word. Now the letters match; Alt, F opens the Backstage and ends keytips. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

| 2026-10-12 | New documents follow the system region (#838): A4 and centimetres outside the US (Letter in the CLDR Letter territories, inches in the US), lengths written with the region's decimal separator (`2,54 cm`) and typed with either; an explicit Measurement units choice wins; `file.options {"region"}` for agents |
|

| 2026-10-12 | Paste from other programs keeps their formatting (#687): Ctrl+V and Home › Paste read the system clipboard's HTML (and RTF on Windows and Wayland); Merge Formatting takes the destination's font and paragraph and keeps bold, italic, underline and strikethrough; Paste Special lists what the system clipboard holds (HTML, RTF, picture, text). Linux: pictures copied in a browser or Spectacle paste on KDE and other Wayland desktops (data-control clipboard), and a paste that finds nothing usable names what the clipboard holds instead of "empty" (#833) |

| 2026-10-12 | PDF export of long documents with many internal links (a linked table of contents) is linear: NIH's 67-page protocol template 10.6 s → 0.9 s |

| 2026-10-11 | Hide White Space (#645): `view.hideWhiteSpace` (View › Show checkbox, or double-click the gap between pages) collapses margins, headers and footers between pages to a thin line in Print Layout; screen only, page count unchanged |
|
||||
| 2026-10-11 | Fonts: Palatino Linotype and Book Antiqua fall back to Palatino (macOS) or TeX Gyre Pagella / P052 / URW Palladio (Linux) before generic serif (#670) |
