- Piecewise 23.01.0 - 23 August 2023
Hi everyone. It’s been quite a bit since I’ve pushed the last update. I had initially planned to ship an update almost a year ago now, and there are way too many useful features that I’ve shipped into the staging branch. I figure now that everything seems stable, now's a good time to cut a release. So, I present Piecewise 23.01.0, “Fireworks Beneath My Shoes.” I’ll go through a bunch of the big stuff and try to highlight everything from that perspective. Without further ado: Editor Find block… menu Having trouble finding exactly which block you’re looking for? Enter the Find block… menu, under Help (or you can press Ctrl-F). This will bring up a menu where you can start typing what you’re looking for (for example, discord log in), and you’ll have the option to jump to the block in your Toolbox or view the documentation instantly.

- Piecewise 22.02.0 Release Notes - 8 February 2022
Hi everyone – sorry for the week-late release! Changes to the release cadence Before I get into the release notes, I'd like to go over some changes I'll be making to how often Piecewise updates will be released. After sticking to once-monthly releases over the past 4 months, I've been figuring out that this sort of forced cadence is hurting the quality of Piecewise, for two big reasons: Features are being stalled for a particular release unnecessarily, due to personal bandwidth and a strictly-planned feature set for each milestone, andFeatures are rushed to hit a particular milestone, and they turn out to be buggy and/or low-quality. That being said, I've decided to switch to a more flexible six-to-eight week schedule, where a release will ship when the features I have planned for it are finished. I plan on setting a soft target for release dates and use that date for the version number…

- Piecewise 22.01.0 Release Notes - 4 January 2022
Hi everyone! Hope everyone had a few restful and safe holiday weeks. I've spent the past few weeks working mainly on new features and fixes for Piecewise. Here come the headings: Editor features Along with various editor stability improvements, most of my work this month centers around the System blocks and working on rough edges in the Steam Workshop tools. Steam Workshop I've taken some time last month to further smooth out the Workshop and make it public to everyone. I've worked on various papercut-sized issues like making sure the dialog displays properly on all platforms, to adding the ability to fetch the current description of your extension blocks when uploading. I've also made the Workshop visible to all users, not just customers. If you're having issues with downloading from or uploading to the Workshop, please let me know so I can work on it!

- Piecewise 21.12.0 Release Notes – Slightly Late Edition - 7 December 2021
Hi everyone! November has been a very busy month for me – I've been working on several new, big-ish features and tons of bug-fixes and usability improvements! Before I start outlining what's new in Piecewise this month, I'd like to take the time to thank everyone who has supported Piecewise so far. I understand that the editor is still rough around the edges, and the documentation is a little sparse right now. I hope that – if it isn't already – Piecewise will grow and change into something you'll be able to use to learn programming or create bots rapidly. Now then! Here's what's new in Piecewise 21.12: Editor highlights RSS feeds DLC https://store.steampowered.com/app/1828520/Piecewise__RSS_Feeds/?beta=1 Piecewise's first DLC releases today!
