Bear 2.0.6 update squashes a lot of bugs

I wrote about Bear 2 a couple of weeks ago and I noted that Bear was having issues with the iPad Magic Keyboard and that I had filed a bug report:

That said, I have noticed some issues on the iPad with the Magic Keyboard: 1. Right-clicking selected text with the trackpad doesn’t bring up the right-click menu. I submitted a bug report. 2. When selecting text to create a link the Done button doesn’t recognize the input from the Magic Keyboard.

With the 2.0.6 update that has all been fixed along with lots of other fixes:

• Updating how the links behave on iOS: when not in edit in a note the links are tappable (would open the link) and interactive (e.g. long press to have a link preview). When in edit the links are not interactive anymore, and the right-click menu shows an “Open Link” “Edit Link” and “Show Preview” items to interact with links
• Footnotes links work again (scroll from the footnote to the definition and vice versa)
• Adjustments for the search results highlighting when the app is restored from background
• Fix for copy as rich text attachments
• Editor enachments for asian text input systems
• Fix for checkboxes mismatching between Bear on AppleWatch and iPhone
• Right-click menu on links now stays open
• The app now force the iPadOS keyboard shorcuts to be visible.
• Fixed Editor issues with blockquote, code blocks, numbered lists and URLs.
• Improved support for Asian scripts
• Fixes for the tel:// URL protocol
• Fixes for some editor crashes
• Some German localisation fixes
• Fix for bear files importer edge cases
• Fixes for sync related crashes
• Fixed Rich Text exporter issue with nested tags
• Improved the HTML to markdown tables and links conversions
• Autocompletion panel
• Solving crash issues with Chinese input in the Notes List search field
• Various fixes for the ENEX importer
• Notes generated with the webclipper are now excaped by involuntary tags
• Fixed preference close button on iOS 14
• Improved memory usage of single note widgets
• PDF exports now uses a darker text color more suitable for printing
