   TidBITS Watchlist: Notable Software Updates for 8 May 2017

   TidBITS Staff

   OmniFocus 2.9.1 -- The Omni Group has released [1]OmniFocus 2.9.1,
   which fixes a bug that caused archiving failure after migrating to the
   new database format introduced in version 2.9 (see '[2]OmniFocus 2.9,'
   17 April 2017). The task management app also now correctly displays the
   date an attachment was added in the Added column for parent rows, warns
   you about possible data loss if you disable sync, fixes a couple of
   crashes, and updates localizations. ($39.99 new for Standard and $79.99
   for Pro from the Omni Group Web site, $39.99 for Standard from [3]Mac
   App Store with in-app purchase option to upgrade to Pro, 29 MB,
   [4]release notes, 10.10+)

   OmniOutliner Essentials and Pro 5.0.3 -- The Omni Group has released
   version 5.0.3 of [6]OmniOutliner Essentials and [7]OmniOutliner Pro, a
   maintenance update that ensures that Launch Services recognizes
   OmniOutliner as the default app for .ooutline files (regardless of
   other installed apps). Both editions of the outlining and information
   organization app fix a bug that caused style attributes not to update
   after moving between rows with arrow keys, ensure that pasting data
   from earlier versions of Excel no longer result in a PDF attachment,
   and fix some issues for Autosize settings with columns.

   OmniOutliner Pro also receives some exclusive updates, including fixing
   some additional column resizing bugs, resolving an issue with changing
   the background color of the Column Titles style, ensuring correct use
   of the sidebars after importing a plain text or rich text file, and
   fixing a crash triggered by collapsing a section in the keyboard
   shortcut list.

   OmniOutliner Essentials is priced at $9.99 ($4.99 upgrade from any
   previous edition of OmniOutliner), while OmniOutliner Pro retails for
   $59.99 (with a $29.99 upgrade price). OmniOutliner 5 is available from
   the [8]Mac App Store as a free download (providing a 2-week free trial)
   with options for unlocking Essentials and Pro features at $9.99 and
   $59.99 respectively. ($9.99 new for Essentials, $59.99 for Pro,
   $4.99/$29.99 upgrades, 26.6 MB, [9]release notes, 10.11+)
