Changes from v26.0.1

  • Adds support for ISSN, ISSN-8, ISBN-10, ISBN-13, and Bookland style barcodes. When scanning any of these into the UPC field when in detail edit, the proper codes (and prices, if relevant) will be extracted.
  • Multiple issues can now be added at once through the detail edit screens, even if you switch from the General tab when editing.
  • Fixes an issue locating 7-Zip through Sidekick on some systems.
  • Adds new "Smart Fill" preference to let you automatically change other variations/printings of the same issue when changing certain fields in the grid (artist, writer, editor, inker, letterer, storylines, colorist, appearances, item title, num pages, height, width, and cover date) if they were previously blank. For instance, if you enter "10/1/2025" as the cover date for the "A" printing of an issue, it'll also set the cover date for the "B" ("C", "D", etc.) variations to "10/1/2025" of that same issue if it was previously blank. Note: Cover date only changes within the same printing.
  • Users who have earned the "Four Color Scholar" badge for 200 accepted corrections also get access to a new "Submit Corrections..." menu item which allows you to bulk submit new or corrected data
  • Adds a "Print Divider Labels" context menu item to the grid. Allows you to print multiple divider labels for any selected titles.
  • Changes the behavior of the context menu commands for right-clicking on the display title at the top of the main page so that the "Print Divider Labels", "Print Price List" and "Price Issue Checklist" commands now (explicitly) print these for the currently displayed title. This lets you take a results list, e.g. after adding a bunch of items by barcode, select all the items in the list, then print divider labels for them.
  • Fixes a potential problem with web authorization tokens timing out when downloading pictures/updating databases which may have caused issues when trying to update multiple databases/get the list of pictures to download
  • Fixed a problem updating the date of last qty change when downloading issues added from the mobile app.
  • Dates of last qty and value change are now stored with the time as well as date so that more specific searches can be made.
  • Fixed a problem which could cause very old databases to throw an error when being opened.
  • Improved Sidekick's handling of multiple databases to better avoid database locks and resource contention when performing tasks on all databases.
