I pushed out a new MindNode and MindNode Pro release today. 1.4.4 fixes a few minor annoying bugs and you can find a detailed list at the end of this blog entry.

However there is one item missing in my official release notes: In this release I added support for a new license key system which will replace my current system for new licenses in the near future. The reason for this change is that my current keys are much too long which caused problems with my payment provider and with some customers. The new, much shorter, and much more readable license keys will make sure that registration emails are delivered within seconds of the purchase and they will be much more convenient to handle by customer.

This new system will not replace old license keys and old license keys will continue to work!

Improvements and Fixes:

• Fixed an issue with incorrect inheriting of font attributes.
• Fixed an issue with overlapping branches when using smart layout.
• Now retaining node orientation when reconnecting
• The application will now strip unsupported paragraph attributes (e.g. first line heading) when pasting.
• Correct printing of header and footer.

Update 12/10: I had to rerelease MindNode Pro 1.4.4. The first release contained a minor bug that prevented correct editing of node titles with smart layout enabled.
