• Hidden several not usefull MenuItems, like File > Convert line Delimiters ....
• Moved MenuItems from Elements menu under the Actions Menu on the MenuBar
• Moved the Debug Client Launch MenuItems from the Actions menu to the Run menu
• Removed custom "New Form" option in the main toolbar and moved the New .... options into the default Eclipse mechanism for "New ..." operations (File > New or New button on toolbar or Alt-Shift-N keyboard shortcut)
• Removed Classic Search view: Search can be triggered through keyboard shortcuts as well as though buttons in the main toolbar area and the menubar 
• Renamed "Profiler View" to just "Profiler"
• Hidden the Profiler view by default
• Hidden Console view by default: gets added automatically when starting a Debug Client
• Moved Tasks view next to Bookmarks view
• Improved enabling/disabling of Solution Explorer nodes, menuItems & ToolBar buttons based on the current context, for example the enabled state of the Debug Client launch buttons
• Better visual feedback on which nodes are enabled/disabled in the Solution Explorer
• Cleaned up and aligned the Context menu's of the Form and Method Editors, to show only relevant entries and to follow the same menuitem order

...

• Better support for advanced JavaScript code structures
• Added support for parameter hints Content Assist - Parameter Hints (Control-Shift-Space) ): Shows a tooltip with the function's parameters with their types, when invoked withing the parameter area of the function declaration "(...)".
• a3: Fixed expand/collapse behavior when saving the Script Editor after adding new variables or functions
• a3: Made it possible to collapse/expand the multi-line content of variables (multi-line Strings, XML, Functions and Objects)
• a3: Added support for putting comments in script files (.js files) outside functions and outside JSDoc tags linked to variables and functions. Note that the comments are lost in the following scenario's:
  • When using Servoy Repository for team development: The Servoy Repository stores individual variables and functions, so anything else in the .js file is lost. Solution: use SVN instead which is file-based
  • When exporting the Solution to a .servoy file: just like the Servoy Repository, the .servoy export format only contains the individual variables and functions. When the .servoy file is used to move a Solution from development into test/Q&A/production, there should be no issue loosing the comments. However, if the .servoy export is going to be used to transport the source into another workspace/development environment, the loss of the extra information could be unwanted. In this case the solution would be:
    1. Share sourcecode between different developers by allowing (anonymous) checkout from the source repository used (for example SVN). 
    2. Use the native Eclipse Archive file export/import functionality to export and later import an entire Eclipse project (a.k.a. Servoy Solution) 
• Fixed indentation of code when moving code using the "Move Sample" and "Move Code" buttons in the Solution Explorer view
• Fixed indentation of code when pasting code into the Script editor

...

• Investigate if the "Paste to JavaScript console" option in the Context menu of the Script Editor can be removed or made to work
• Investigate if the "Run as ..." and "Debug as ..." options in the Context menu of the Script Editor can be removed or made to work
• Bring back support for the old way to type a foundset or records to belong to a certain database and tableInvestigate if code-completion can be offered inside JSDoc tags
• Full support in JSDoc for typing as a specific type of Form: "@type Form<myformName>". Current support does not include Form variables and Form methods  

...

• Color properties show the HEX value, instead of the RGB value
• Color properties can be directly edited. Supported values are Hex values, RGB values and named colors (i.e. black, red etc)
• Font properties can be directly edited
• When setting a property to an invalid value, an Error dialog pops up, instead of a message in the status bar and a silent revert to the old value
• Dataprovider properties that are unresolved now show the dataprovider name that cannot be resolved
• StyleName and StyleClass property now have a button to open the StyleSheet/jump to the StyleClass declaration
• The Method Selection dialog used to assign methods to Commands and Events has an "OK & Show" button to assign the selected method to the Command/Event and open the assigned method in the Script Editor in one go
• Ability to select -none- as dataprovider when editing a dataprovider property
• Added option to select standard tags over a relation (where applicable) in the Text property editor
• Overrides of inherited property values show -OVERRIDE- next to the value
• Options to create either a private or public method when creating a new method for an event/command handler. In case of the private option, the @private JSDoc tag is set in the JSDoc of the newly created method. 

Profiler view

• Hidden from the Servoy Design perspective to improve the initial experience
• Made customized column width settings by the user persistent between session (a3) 
• Added Query execution timing info to the Profiler view
• Reduced the info in the "Source File" column to only show the name of the .js file and the Form name where applicable
