Pinegrow Web Editor 5.93 is available for download.

Insert special characters

In text editing mode, click on the Star button to insert special character:

Text editing toolbar with the special characters menu open at Emojis, inserting a tree emoji into the title Pine Tree Poems

Let us know if you miss some commonly used characters and we’ll add them to the menu.

Exclude folders and files when scanning for components and master pages

Whenever a project is loaded, Pinegrow goes through all editable files and scans them for component definitions and master pages.

To exclude a folder or files from this process right-click on the folder/file and set “Scan for components & master pages” to “No”.

Project context menu with the Scan for components and master pages submenu open, set to No to exclude a folder from scanning

Doing this is useful in situations where:

  • The project contains multiple copies of important files, for example created by backups, working copies, static CMS… Exclude such duplicate folders and files to avoid conflicts.
  • Scanning the project takes a long time because the project contains lots of folders and files. Exclude files and folders that don’t contain any files with components and master pages.

Updated device presets

Page view device presets are now updated and located in their own submenu:

Device presets submenu listing sizes such as Desktop, Laptop, iPad Pro and iPhone XS Max/XR/11 at 414 by 896

Let us know if you miss any relevant devices.
