The {productname} 8.0.0 release includes an accompanying release of the PowerPaste premium plugin.
When users pasted content from Microsoft Word documents containing lists styled with Word’s "No List" setting into the editor with PowerPaste enabled, the operation failed due to a parsing error. As a result, the content was not inserted into the editor, causing disruption to content workflows. {productname} 8.0.0 addresses this issue by updating the PowerPaste parser to correctly handle lists with the "No List" style. As a result, users can now successfully paste such content into the editor without encountering errors.

{productname} 8.0.0 also includes the following bug fix<es>:
In previous versions of {productname}, if a button was hovered by the mouse while using arrow keys for navigation, focus would return to the previously focused element. This caused the selection to become stuck on the button with the mouseover event.
{productname} 8.0.0 resolves this issue by preventing the mouseover event from being triggered again during arrow key navigation, ensuring a seamless user experience when navigating with arrow keys.
Prior to {productname} 8.0.0, Firefox exhibited an issue where pressing the left or right arrow keys would not allow users to exit the image figcaption element. This behavior was inconsistent with other major browsers such as Google Chrome and Safari, where the arrow keys functioned as expected and allowed seamless navigation out of the figcaption.
With {productname} 8.0.0, this issue has been resolved. Users can now exit the figcaption using the left/right arrow keys in Firefox, aligning its behavior with that of other browsers. This update ensures a more consistent user experience.
Decorative images would lose their decorative status when the alt subtoolbar was closed when using the apply button.
Previously, an issue was identified where closing the alt subtoolbar using the Apply button would inadvertently remove the decorative status from an image that was already marked as decorative. This occurred because the onSetup API disabled the input group, leading the Apply logic to incorrectly interpret the image as non-decorative.
This issue has been resolved in {productname} 8.0.0. The onSetup and Apply behavior has been aligned to consistently evaluate the input group, ensuring the decorative status is preserved as expected.
In previous versions of {productname}, whitespace between <colgroup> and <col> tags was not removed by {productname}'s HTML schema. This behavior caused the editor to preserve unnecessary whitespace characters in the table markup.
This issue has been resolved in 8.0.0. Both colgroup and col elements are now treated as block-level elements, ensuring that extraneous whitespace is stripped from these areas. As a result, the editor now produces cleaner and more concise table markup.
