Compositor 1.26 brings a new source editor, to replace the admittedly clunky floating source editor window.
Here’s what’s new in this release. As usual, the complete list of fixed bugs and new features can also be found on Github.
Improvements
Source code panel #521
The document window now has an expandable panel (shortcut: ^S) that hosts a new source editor:
The WYSIWYG editor and the source editor are automatically kept in sync, so selecting a paragraph in the WYSIWYG editor will also select and highlight the same paragraph in the source editor, and vice versa. If there’s a caret blinking in the active editor, the other editor will show a static (non-blinking) caret at the corresponding position.
I hope that this unintrusive source editor will be helpful for edge cases where WYSIWYG editing currently fails.

The scope for Release 1.27 is still pretty open, but it will likely bring minor improvements and bugfixes.
