(taken from https://paratext.org/features/whats-new/whats-new-in-paratext-9-4-beta/)

Some Highlights

  • Notification of updates for projects on the user’s computer: Now, Paratext can check whether the projects on one’s computer have been updated on the Send-Receive server. If the project has been edited, users will be notified with a green dot in both the main and project menus (see image below). Settings for checking for updates are available in the Send/Receive projects window. Main menu video demo

  • Notification of updates for installed resources. A green dot in the main menu can also indicate updates to resource texts on the local computer. Access to the settings for this feature is in the Download/Install resources window.

  • Improved Right-to-Left interface. Paratext now correctly displays right-to-left user interfaces (like Arabic). RTL video demo

  • Option to hide project notes. Numerous red flags in the text can easily become an obstacle to reading. Users can now choose to hide or display project note flags in the text. Access from the View menu > Show Project Notes. Project menu video demo

  • Improved quotation checking. The new “Quotation Types” Basic Check knows where quotations should occur in the text based on Glyssen data and can ensure that they are all marked appropriately. Quotation types video demo

  • Added video to Enhanced Resources. Now the Media tab for Enhanced Resources contains video clips from LUMO and UBS’s “Bible Lands as Classroom” series. Enhanced resources videos – video demo

  • Import/Export Biblical terms lists.
