Full Release Notes
### Release Notes This is a bugfix release that fixes a rare problem causing novelWriter to crash if the spell checker language setting was configured to an empty value. A few other minor issues have also been fixed: The project language setting is now properly exported to ODT documents. Spaces are no longer inserted automatically in front of colons in certain meta data settings when the feature is enabled (it is primarily used for French). Lastly, the slider splitting the editor and viewer panels can no longer be dragged until the viewer disappears. It was not necessarily obvious how the viewer panel could be restored in such cases. ### Detailed Changelog **Bugfixes** * Fixed an issue where the project language setting was not exported when building Open Document files.
