This patch provides a variety of fixes and small enhancements, including:

***************************************
Structure Tools 2.07 Release notes - 8/2/2010
***************************************

This patch provides a variety of fixes and small enhancements, including:

- In the attribute settings, you can now specify the specific elements to which any given settings apply. Previously, the settings for an attribute always applied regardless of the element tag. Now, you can set up different behavior for the same attribute on different elements.

- An external call interface was added so that you can invoke Structure Tools functionality with your own FDK client or FrameScript script. At the time of this writing, external call support includes the invocation of the modal attribute editor and the "process book" feature.

- The "process book" feature can now operate on a book where some or all chapter files are closed. The dialog box has new options which control this behavior. Note that you should choose these options carefully and heed the warning messages, because certain setups may cause the plugin to modify and save files without any opporunity for you to review the changes. In general, opening all files in the book is still recommended.

- A crash on Windows 7 involving the editing of an invalid attribute has been fixed.

Structure Tools 2.0 Release notes
***************************************

The most important feature of Structure Tools 2.0 is the new modeless attribute editor, which represents a big improvement over current native features. If you edit attributes frequently, we encourage you to check it out. It supports a wide variety of configurations, including whitespace-delimited (tokenized) values.

This release also includes:

- Improvements to building block functionality when configuring "dynamic" values for auto-population and editor lists
- The ability to copy and paste attribute values between elements

See the User Guide for further information on all these items.



***************************************
Structure Tools 1.3 PATCH NOTES
***************************************

Version 1.3 provides some improvements on how Structure Tools stores its settings, especially with respect to the installation process. If you already have 1.2 working, there is no need to install 1.3  If you do install 1.3, it will reset any custom settings you had, if any.  We apologize for any inconvenience... this was necessary to fix a bad idea from a few years ago about how to handle settings.
