📃 Iteration 36 roadmap 📃

[mlewand]

This post outlines our targets for the upcoming iteration. The goal is to provide a summary of where we are going.

In this iteration we plan to focus on paying some development debt and bug fixes. That being said we still plan to include a few improvements.

New features / enhancements

• Pagination feature
• Improved pasting plain text

Bug fixes

• List and list style plugin polishing:
  • Wrong list style in undo stack after merging two different list styles
  • Creating a numbered list above an unordered list results with a wrong list type
  • For 2nd and deeper indent level, cannot use list style that was used before
  • Crash when merging two list items
  • Crash after indenting list item when list is the first element in the editor
• Link decorators are lost after initialization if LinkImage plugin is enabled
• Autolink throws an exception on pressing enter when the entire first block is selected
• Link balloon displayed in wrong place for selection after a styled link

Finally, there are some more bug fixes and minor improvements planned for the 36th iteration. See the list of issues assigned to the current iteration for more details.

Dates

The code freeze is planned on September the 24th, followed by releasing npm packages on September the 30th.

Please keep in mind that these plans are subject to change and even though we put all our energy to deliver all the items mentioned above, the iteration plan may change at any point.

@mlewand - Is there any more info on the pagination feature that you could provide?

[AnnaTomanek]

@ejwill04 The pagination feature allows you to see where page breaks would be if the document would be exported to PDF or Word. It also respects page breaks inserted by the user with the page break feature.

It's almost ready and should be released very soon - next week probably, independently from the CKEditor 5 release. So stay tuned for an update here!

The pagination feature is now officially released: https://ckeditor.com/blog/How-to-create-ready-to-print-documents-with-page-structure-in-WYSIWYG-editor---CKEditor-5-pagination-feature/
