Is there a list of new features somewhere that we can look for?
Also, please Edit that and change all “http://” links to “https://”. Modern browsers or extensions from antimalware programs will make the users jump through hoops to download anything via unsecured “http://” anymore.

Hi, in the docs/english folder you have whatsnew.htm 
This version improves MIDI imports and brings a new mode for writing notes: insertion of a complete chord insertion in a single mouse click
New
Complet chord input in one click (right-click when using the note insert tool). A long right ckick opens the chord settings menu
New intelligent staff split into left and right hand, especially in MIDI imports
Ornaments (gruppetto, mordant...) are detected and notated in MIDI import
Harmony Assistant: New script for deleting extra front pages as well as the related free objects
Improvements
Improvement in the way staves containing microtonal accidentals or key signatures are played
Better management of default Virtual Singer voices in MIDI import
When inputing MIDI in real-time, the Esc key now opens the input validation box
Dates in page header and footer, as well as free objects, can now be displayed in a selected language.
Harmony Assistant: in the free object general management box, deletion of all objects from a page or the whole document.
When importing a digital audio file, when the format isn't recognised by Harmony, ffmpeg is called. It enables for instance to extract the audio track from an MP4 video
Harmony Assistant: Finale import : management of default instruments for staves with lyrics
Harmony Assistant: script-driven palettes have now priority on other windows in keyboard keys management.
Fixes
Fixed many calculation and positionning problems on digital staves: errors in size, position, or impossible to export in some formats
Fixed several errors in keynboard shortcut list management
Fixed accented characters in preferences topic names
Fixed accented characters in break symbols names
Fixed accented characters in some alert messages and menus
Fixed a random problem when music starts playing

Fixed crash in interaction between keyboard note input and undo function
Moving some objects (tempi, dynamics, diagrams) didn't mark the document as modified
Clipping problem when displaying notes from sensitive keyboard
Symbol color conversion on files created wth version 9.6
Custom harmonicas editing
When playing, rests were displayed on tablatures
Rests didn't display on priority harmonica tablatures
Harmonica tablature optimised for breath
Rest inserted in a chord on Posé de silence en accord en tablature harmonica
Drawing of symbol of previous bar repeat in harmonica tablature

It may also be enacted by preparing to over-write an existing note or chord. (The chord list is determined by the note on which you enact a long-right click).
I have informed Didier that the English translations Fundamental and bottom are not customary.
Although it is customary to use 1st inversion, 2nd inversion, I think it would be more helpful to use /3 /5 /7.
Does anyone agree? Would 3rd inv. (/7) be a good idea?
(I have also pointed-out that the 4th inversion is not theoretically correct.)
I have not found a way of selecting both an inversion and a chord name without performing the long-right click twice.

I'm always a bit lost with inversion of chords.
In French, the "fundamental state" (raw translation, is "root position" better?) is when the "fundamental" note (G for G9) is the lowest note of the chord, does "root" note is better?
And then we have 1st, 2nd, 3rd... inversions (renversement in French) but I never know if the first means the highest note goes down below the root or the root goes up above the highest note.
From Wikipedia french article (and english article I see it's the fundamental going up above the highest not of the chord, but in a few days I won't remember again 
There can be 4 or probably more inversions, up to N-1, N being the number of notes in the chord.
I've never seen /2, /3... notation.
But really often G7/F, or G/F for a G7 chord with F as the lowest note, the 3rd inversion.
But chord/bass notation is also used to describe a bass line over a constant chord. e.g. stay in Em and finish with B, Em.
Bass line is E, D, C#, C, B, D#, E.
Notation will be, on the chord line of the score : Em, Em/D, Em/C#, Em/C, B, B/D#, Em.
Instruments which play the Em are note forced to play Em7, Em6, CM7... they play Em and let the bass line to accordion, double bass or others

I was very interested that you mentioned that!
The English term for the French à l'envers is upside-down or inverted.
So it seemed logical to me that inverting a chord meant taking the upper note and placing it at the bottom.
That is precisely why I failed my school music exam!

If you think about it, taking the top note of a C triad and placing it in the bass gives a different result to taking the top note of a C7 (four-note) chord and placing it in the bass.
However, taking the root note of any C chord and placing it at the top always leaves the same note in the bass.
The usefulness of that should help us to remember it! 
The bass note in a 1st inversion will be the 3rd of the chord (except with a sus4 )
It is only my suggestion that we describe it as 1st inv. (/3rd) (where /3 serves only as an explanation)
The chord "menu" has 4 fixed inversion terms at the bottom of the list, so it cannot (for example) show G7/F or A7/G
My suggestion would be to display the term 3rd inv. (/7th)
Incidentally, if I want a C#dim7 chord in root position, I must select G7dim 2nd inv.

Le menu Edition /aspect semble avoir un fonctionnement aléatoire.
Des options sont grisées alors qu'elles devraient être disponibles. J'ai joint un ficher myr

9.9.5 Beta-1 plus de soufflet de nuances
« Reply #7 on: Dec 5th, 2021, 1:52pm » |

Pose d'une nuance avec [Outil d'ajout de nuance] normalement quand la boite texte de [Edition nuance] est vide, c'est le soufflet qui s'affiche par défaut, mais là plus de soufflet. Déjà signalé sur 9.9.4e mais pas corrigé.
Alors je renseigne Cresc. dans la boite, mais si la nuance s'étire sur 4 mesures coupées sur deux systèmes, Cresc. est répété sur le deuxième

Oui Sylvain, mais je veux m'assurer avant que le problème n'est pas derrière le clavier !

Pas de souci de mon côté. Je n'ai pas fait le tour, mais apparemment, pas de problèmes majeurs.

Problème intéressant, il se produit systématiquement avec la version Mac 995b1 et non avec la 994e. Didier est sur le coup.

OK, le mieux c'est quand même de faire les 2 mail + poster ici.
Pour les nuances, j'avais le problème sur 994 Windows 64bit, déjà dans les versions béta/RC, mais ils n'ont pas pu le reproduire.
Je suis désolé, j'ai fait une petite session de test à la sortie de la 995b1 mais là j'ai pas eu le temps de m'y replonger, et pas le temps dans les jours qui viennent
