• Scripting plugins (Python and Ruby) to extend functionality (including example script for HTML export)
• Simple printouts, print settings and print preview for table and query data
• Handbook added (incomplete).
• More than two hundreds of overall improvements and bug fixes.

Core

• use local sockets by default for local server connections, if possible
• added simple encryption for stored passwords
• allow to save empty password in .kexis and .kexic files
• ask for password (without storing it) for connection data without stored password

Table Designer

• Fixes for Designer's table grid and Property Editor pane.
• Field captions can be now entered by users instead of names. Field names are then automatically generated.
• Do not ask twice for saving changes to the design on window closing.
• Find unique name for autogenerated primary key fields.

Query Designer

• Various fixes for Visual Query Designer and SQL Editor; graphical representation of joins is generated back from SQL statement.
• A few bugs for relationships creation fixed; redrawing fixed.
• Ambiguous expressions fixed for criterias.
• Usability: file dialogs now store recent directory paths in the config file, and this is now used everywhere in Kexi.

Form Designer

• "format_font" action added; it's now possible setting font for one or multiple widget's standard using font dialog.
• Data aware 'multiline text editor' widget added.
• Added possibility of inserting autofields using 'Insert fields' button from Data Source tab.
• Data-aware image box widget": "insertFromFile", "saveAs", "cut", "copy", "paste", "delete", "properties" popup actions added.

• Record navigator is now hidden if there's no data source assigned for a form.
• Better handling multiple widget selection.
• Support for Auto Fields, including drag&drop. Editor inside Auto Field is visible at design time. Inserting Auto Fields is atomic command supporting undo/redo. Update label for font/palette change, display "Unbounded Auto Field" text when no data source is set (in design time, like for image box); improved behaviour in design time (setting caption/type/label position).
• Avoid adding accelerators.
• Added support for static and data-aware images boxes; properties implemented: scaling (aspect ration can be kept), horizontal/vertical alignment.
• Application-wide buffer for local (static) BLOB data like pixmaps. For now only pixmaps are supported. Used on design time before objects are stored. This allows to copy multimegabyte pixmaps within Kexi without unnecessary memory loss. Only one copy of each image is stored in memory.
• Memory for data is now properly freed before closing a form.

Scripting (Kross)

• KexiDB has been wrapped to access the whole database-functionality Kexi provides.
• Kexi application has been wrapped to access Kexi's runtime elements, like the Main Window.
• Added example scripts to demonstrate how scripting could be used to extend Kexi.
• Script Editor: Open, edit, save and execute scripting code; allow to configure interpreter-dependend options via the Property Editor.

• Added possibility of migrating Kexi projects from one backend to another.
• Implemented moving kexi projects from database servers to database files.
• Many GUI improvements.
• Added "Advanced options" button and dialog, currently with "Encoding" parameter for source database. Currently used by MDB driver for MSJet3 files.

• Added "Always use this encoding when importing CSV data files" option to "CSV Import Options" dialog.
• CSV Export dialog added (also for copying to clipboard) with storable export options.
• Optimization for large data: only about 100 rows are loaded for preview. Progress dialog added on dialog creation (opening can be cancelled). Importing can be cancelled as well.

MS Access Database Import

• Text data is properly decoded (object names and data).
• Fixed handling for non-latin1 filenames.
• Fixed date, date/time types handling (including Y2k problem for years >=1930) and currency type.

Data Table Widget

• Fixes for data updating and redrawing.
• Combo box popup behaves more like a normal combo box (highlighting, selecting).
• Fixed possible crashes, invalid repainting, added more keyboard shortcuts.
• Fixed switching sort order.
• Fixed entering row number in the row navigator (the same within forms).

• Many i18n'd messages fixed.
• "File->Export->Data Table" and "Edit->Copy Special->As Data Table" actions added.
• Usability: for IDEAl mode tabs are also visible when one window is opened; added "close" button to the tab widget for IDEAl mode.
• 'hover close button' is now turned off by default for IDEAl mode (added appriopriate setting to kexirc for changing this).
• Do not allow to open the same dialog twice - it was possible for slowly loading dialogs with large data.
• Disable actions that require write access to the db if it's opened as readonly
• Closing dialog is now marked as 'pending job', the same as for opening
• When there are pending jobs, 'quit' and 'close project' actions are delayed and executed after last pending job finishes. This removed possible crashes when user closed application's main window (or closed project) when there are pending jobs.
• When query design has been changed and saved, subsequent openings of a form using it will reload its definition. The same for 'page setup' dialogs.
• Disabled complex and redundant action 'View -> Tool Docks' menu

Simple Printouts

• Added Simple Printouts with Print Preview and Page Setup windows.
• Pages to print can be selected; number of copies can be entered; pages collation switch on or off
• "Page Setup" action added; now it's window is only presented when user really wants this.

Database Support Library (KexiDB)

• More verbose error messages: Error messages and result numbers can be now inherited, so less information will be lost while displaying message e.g. on failed cursor opening.

• Added --print and --print-preview command line options.
• Project Migration Wizard is proposed if a server-based database is incompatible with Kexi and cannot be opened.
• "--skip-dialog" command line option added. Skips displaying connection dialog and connects directly. Available when opening .kexic or .kexis shortcut files.
• opening server-based projects works in File->Open when there's already project opened.
• "--connection <shortcut_filename>" command line option added. Specifies a database connection shortcut .kexic file containing connection data. Can be used with --createdb or --create-opendb for convenience instead of using options like --user, --host or --port. Note: Options like --user, --host have precedence over settings defined in the shortcut file.

Database Drivers

• MySQL: non-latin1 text data (UTF8 encoded) was not properly retrieved.
• MySQL, PostgreSQL: entering special characters like ', \, ", \n did not work.
• PostgreSQL: fix for displaying unicode error messages
