This version implements a huge update in the SyntaxEditor Python Languages Add-on to support Python 3.11 syntax and makes other improvements to the Python and .NET Languages Add-ons.
See the related announcement post for the detailed list of enhancements and updates.
Here’s a look at some of the new features.
SyntaxEditor Python Language Add-on
Python v3.11 Syntax Support
The Python Language Add-on's parser previously only supported Python v3.9 syntax, which will be end of life later this year. The updates in this version added all the syntax updates in v3.10 (like pattern matching) and v3.11. More updates are planned to further increase the supported Python version.
Source Location Display
Past versions have always displayed the source module path on IntelliPrompt popups. In some cases, customers didn't wish for this information to be available to end users. A new option can prevent its display.
Field and Variable Docstrings
Docstrings for fields and variables will now be displayed in IntelliPrompt popups.
This version makes many small feature enhancements and quality of life improvements in the WPF Controls.

Here’s a look at some of the new features.
Themes
Color Palette Customization
The factory that creates a color palette used by the Actipro theme generator can now be customized and assigned. A default factory implementation is included that allows for easy adjustment of the color ramps generated by the color palette. You can easily adjust all palette colors and tint a theme to any color you prefer. This feature goes a long way towards creating a unique appearance for your applications.
Color Palette Utility
The Color Palette utility, part of our samples app, visually displays the entire color palette for the current theme. It now has a drop-down for selecting between several neutral midtone colors. Neutrals are important because they make up 80-90% of a theme and effectively tint a theme. The tinting effect is more apparent in dark theme variants. Another new drop-down lets you select the hue for accent colors, such as those used for selected item backgrounds.
Docking / MDI
Semi-Transparent Dragged Windows
A new option allows floating windows to appear semi-transparent while dragged. This makes it easier to see what drop targets are behind the dragged window.
This version implements a huge update in the Python Languages Add-on to support Python 3.11 syntax, makes various improvements throughout Bars and other products, adds auto-hide tool window middle-click close, and more.
