Announcing PasswordSafe 3.40 for Windows

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.40 for Windows.
This is a maintenance release, fixing a few minor issues, as described
below.

Thanks to dk, sauravg, pm_kan, Karlo, Bjorne, MrMe and others for their
help in this release.

Thanks also to all the users who have provided bug reports, suggestions,
and the occasional donation...

Bugs fixed in 3.40
==================
[] Correctly import empty groups from a XML file when an imported
group has been
specified.
[] Empty groups are now added when merging one PasswordSafe database into
another.
[] List view column widths are no longer reset when dragging columns to
different positions or columns are added or removed.
[] The user specified Notes font is now also applied to the Notes column in
the List view.
[] Entry Protected state and AutoType string is now correctly displayed in
the List view.
[] After entry has been edited from List View, it now remains visible
after Edit/Undo/Redo
even if the change alters its position within the view.
[1360] When an entry/group using a Named Password Policy is exported
to a PasswordSafe
database, the referenced policy is now also exported.
[1355] Fixed tabbing order in Basic AddEdit tab.
[1352] Fixed regression in recent entry processing.
[1347] Prevent a user from trying to copy a filter to a read-only database.
[1346] The Notes window no longer scrolls when re-activated after losing
focus.
[1345] Removed the ability to create a new database when read-only is
checked.
[1342, 1343] Fix multiple empty group issues.
[1335] If "Minimize after Autotype" option is set, it will also be honoured
for the user action: "Browse to URL + Autotype".
[1315] Keep selected entry selected after refreshing the view (F5).
[1314] Selected entries keep highlight when the Find toolbar is opened and
even when Password Safe loses focus to another application.
[1313, 1318] Find toolbar no longer closes when it shouldn't. In
addition, results
are updated when entries are added/deleted.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.40
====================================
[] Save Immediately has been enhanced to apply to all changes to the
database and not just after an edit or addition of an entry. It is STRONGLY
recommended that, if enabled, then the option to "Create intermediate
backups" is also enabled. Note, changes made via the Compare database
results dialog will not cause a database save for each action but will
after the compare results dialog has been closed.
[] The last sort direction in List View (ascending or descending) on
closing a database is now stored in the application configuration file and
is no longer stored in the database header.
[] The number of groups shown in the database properties dialog is now
counted in the same manner as directories/folders in a file system,
e.g., Windows
Explorer. This includes empty groups. The number of empty groups is also
shown.

New Features for 3.40
=====================
[] Empty sub-groups are included when exporting a group to a new
PasswordSafe database.
[] Adding an empty group will also cause the database to be saved if the
user has selected the option "Save database immediately after any change".
[811] The user's selected Notes font is now used for Tooltips in the Tree
and List views if the Display preference 'Show Notes as Tooltips in Tree &
List views' is
set.
[810] Allow font selection for all the user input fields in the Add/Edit
entry and the Create Shortcut dialogs.
