Picture Bullet in Word Docs & White Spaces Bookmarks in PDF, XPS & SWF in Java/.NET Apps

What's New in this Release?
 
Aspose development team is happy to announce the monthly release of Aspose.Words for Java & .NET 15.11.0. This month’s release contains over 146 useful new features, enhancements and bug fixes to the Aspose.Words products. Here is a look at just a few of the biggest features and API changes in this month’s release, Creation and deletion of picture bullet, Introduce public property ImageData in ListLevel, Introduce public overload DocumentBuilder.InsertCheckBox method, Introduce public property FormField.Default, Bookmarks with white-spaces are allowed in PDF, XPS and SWF, Introduce document-wide defaults formatting,.  We have added new methods to create and delete picture bullets. Using ListLevel.ImageData you can get access to all available ImageData options. Public overload method has been added to the DocumentBuilder class. It allows defining default value and checked state of inserting check box separately. Now checkedValue value is also assigned as default value of check box. Default value had the ‘false’ value in the previous version. The checkedValue parameter of the overload has been renamed (old name: defaultValue).  This release uses new FormField.Default property is to get or set the default value of the check box form field. In the previous versions of Aspose.Words it was not allowed to use bookmarks with white spaces in all document formats. All white spaces in the bookmarks were replaced with underscores. This restriction came from MS Word formats, since bookmarks in MS Word formats, like DOCX or DOC cannot have white spaces. However, PDF allows such bookmarks. So now, if you need to use bookmarks in PDF, XPS or SWF outlines, you can use them with white spaces. We have added new public properties DefaultParagraphFormat and DefaultFont to StyleCollection class. In the previous versions of Aspose.Words with this option enabled missing outline levels was created only for headings. Now missing outline levels are created both for headings and bookmarks. We have added new public property UpdateFields to SaveOptions class. This property gets or sets a value determining if fields should be updated before saving the document to a fixed page format. Default value for this property is true. It affected only fields of DataRow and IDataRecord instances. In previous versions of Aspose.Words this enumeration does not work for master-detail relationships. That is why, the option was renamed.
