Release notes

Blockpad 0.9.2370.0 (2020-03-09)

  • Opening Mathcad files (*.xmcd format only) is now supported. To open Mathcad files, go to File > Open and select the file to open. Blockpad will translate the Mathcad content into equations inside a step-by-step section in a new Blockpad file.
  • While entering formulas in spreadsheets and tables, arrow keys now create quick references to adjacent cells, similar to in other spreadsheet programs.
  • Tool tips are improved, including showing quick Min, Max, Average, and Sum values for selections in the bottom left of the window.
  • If you select full rows or columns in a table or spreadsheet, resizing rows or columns now resizes the full range
  • Resizing columns in a table, adjacent columns are now adjusted to keep a table's width matching the page.
  • Ctrl+Enter now inserts a page break in a document.
  • When finished drawing a set of lines, the Enter key now works to finish inputting. The Esc key still works too.
  • Sharper text rendering
  • When inputting numbers into cells, Blockpad will start by default with the unit in that cell or in the cell above. To use a different unit, simply clear the default.
  • Header footer improvements — In a document or spreadsheet, if you go to Write > Header Footer, special text options (through the Insert button in any of the 6 boxes) now include Frame Title, File Name, and File Path.
