PowerShell Studio 2015: Service Release v4.2.90

We released a new service release for PowerShell Studio 2015 (v4.2.90).

Here’s what’s new:

Updated Editor Themes

We updated the editor’s themes including the default, so be sure to apply the new PowerShell Studio theme after updating. These themes take into account the new additions to the syntax coloring (see below).

For those who don’t like change, we included a PowerShell Studio (Classic) Theme, so that you can revert to the classic look of PowerShell Studio.

Improved Syntax Color

We improved the syntax coloring in PowerShell Studio to give you more control over the coloring of your scripts.

For example:

Unknown parameters are now marked as unknown and colored:

Command arguments can now be colored:

Loop labels are now colored as well:

Improved PrimalSense

We made some enhancements to our PrimalSense.

After debugging, PowerShell Studio will display the last known value for a variable:

Note: Array values must be queried before they are stored.

Now PowerShell Studio retains the Variable panel contents for your reference:

We improved our PrimalSense support for PSParameterBounds:

We added PrimalSense support for loop labels:

We now display PrimalSense for comma delimited parameter values:

Updated Function Browser

The function browser now displays nested functions under the parent function:

Remove Digital Signature

We added the option to remove the digital signature of a script. The recommended practice if you are using the script as part of a project and have the file’s Build property set to Include.

We also added the option to sign and remove signatures via the file tab’s context menu:

Qualify Cmdlet Names

Press [Ctrl + Shift + H] to expand all cmdlets to their module-qualified names:

Press [Ctrl + Alt + H] to convert all cmdlets to their unqualified name.
