This update contains new features, improvements and bug fixes. In addition, 7 bonus test days were
unlocked.

NEW FEATURE: ENHANCED AI INTEGRATION – FOR PLUS AND PRO

  • DramaQueen now supports multiple AI providers:
    • OpenAI – Provider of GPT-5.2 and other models
    • Anthropic – Provider of Claude models
    • Mistral – European AI provider
  • API key setup:
    • New dialog for setting up the AI integration via the main menu AI or the gear menu of the AI Chat panel.
    • The entered API key can be tested for validity using the Check button.
    • Before entering an API key, the data protection agreement must be accepted, as text content is transmitted to the AI provider’s servers.
  • Switch AI model:
    • The AI model can now be switched during an active chat.
    • The switch takes effect immediately for the next AI response – the chat history is preserved.

NEW FEATURE: ENHANCED AI CHAT – FOR PLUS AND PRO

  • The AI Chat panel has been completely redesigned with numerous new features:
  • Multi-chat management with chat list:
    • New collapsible chat list on the left side enables management of multiple parallel chats.
    • The chat list can be sorted by various criteria: alphabetically, by creation time (newest/oldest first), by modification time, or manually via drag&drop.
    • Chats can be filtered using the search function in the toolbar – the search covers chat names, subjects and message contents.
    • Chat names can be renamed directly in the list by double-clicking or pressing F2.
    • New chats automatically receive an AI-generated title based on the first message.
  • Chat list context menu (right-click) offers the following options:
    • New chat: Creates a new chat.
    • Rename chat: Opens edit mode for the chat name.
    • Duplicate chat: Creates a copy of the selected chat including all messages.
    • Archive chat: Moves the chat to the chat archive.
    • Pin/unpin chat: Pinned chats are always displayed at the top of the list.
    • Export chat: Exports the chat in various formats (Word, RTF, HTML, Markdown, plain text).

  • Chat archive:
    • New collapsible chat archive section for storing inactive chats.
    • Archived chats can be reactivated or permanently deleted at any time.
  • Saved prompts:
    • New collapsible saved prompts section for storing frequently used prompts.
    • Prompts can be saved via the save button next to the input field or via the context menu of the input field.
    • Saved prompts can be renamed by double-clicking or pressing F2.
    • Saved prompts can be run either in the existing chat or in a new chat.
  • Prompt templates (PRO only):
    • New collapsible prompt templates section with pre-made prompts for common use cases.
    • Prompt templates can be run either in the existing chat or in a new chat.
    • The prompt templates have been revised and are now optimized for use with attached contexts.
  • Context attachments (PRO only):
    • Via the ‘Add context’ icon, various content can be attached as context to the
      next message, allowing the AI to work directly with this content.
    • The following context types can be attached:
      • Files: External documents (DOCX, RTF, PDF) and text files.
      • Texts: Complete text levels (Plot, Outline, Script/Novel) or individual steps/scenes.
      • Ideas: Ideas from the document.
      • Storylines: Storylines with their assigned elements.
      • Characters: Characters with their properties.
      • Locations: Locations with their properties.
      • World elements: World elements from the document.
      • Chats: Other AI chats as reference.
    • Attached contexts are displayed above the input field and can be removed individually.
    • Contiguous elements (e.g. consecutive scenes) are automatically displayed as a single context block.
    • When attaching a complete text level, it is labeled as “Plot”, “Outline” or “Script”.
  • Automatic chat compaction:
    • For long AI chats, the conversation history is now automatically summarized when 80% of the AI model’s context limit is reached.
    • A brief notification informs about the compaction process, and the generated summary is displayed in the chat history.
    • This allows extended conversations to continue without interruption, while preserving important context.
  • Improved input field:
    • The input field now supports undo/redo for entered text.
    • The height of the input area can be adjusted by dragging the top edge.
    • New context menu (right-click) with options: Save prompt, Cut, Copy, Paste, Select all.
  • Responsive layout:
    • With a wider window, the chat list is automatically displayed next to the chat area (side-by-side layout).
    • In maximized view, the saved prompts and prompt templates sections are automaticallydisplayed on the right side.
  • Keyboard shortcuts in the chat list:
    • ENTER: Creates a new chat (first press) or renames the selected chat (second press).
    • F2: Renames the selected chat.
    • DEL/Backspace: Deletes the selected chat.

IMPROVEMENT: MULTIPLE SELECTION WITH BULK ACTIONS – FOR PLUS AND PRO

  • In the Overview panel and the Board panel, multiple steps or
    scenes can now be selected at once     to set or remove properties for all selected elements in a
    single step:

    • Multiple elements can be selected by clicking while holding Shift or Ctrl.
    • Multiple selection is limited to elements of the same level: You can select
      either multiple steps OR multiple scenes, but not a mix of both.
    • Multiple selected elements can be moved together via drag&drop.
  • Context menu with multiple selection – the following bulk actions are available:
  • Storylines:

FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS:

  • After successful saving (AutoSave or manual saving), a green checkmark is now displayed
    next to the save icon     in the toolbar. The checkmark remains visible until the user continues typing.
  • In the panel headers of the element panels (Ideas, Storylines, Characters, Locations, World, AI
    Chat), subtle plus and delete buttons are now available, allowing elements to be added or deleted
    without long mouse travel.
  • The context menus in the cards of the Board panel and in the lists of the element panels (Ideas, Characters, Locations,
    World, Storylines) can now also be opened by clicking on a context menu overlay.
  • Internal references are now automatically created bidirectionally, so that the
    reference also exists in reverse.
  • The Annotations panel now also supports responsive layout: When the panel is
    wide enough, the ‘References & Research’ section automatically moves to the right side.
  • In the Board panel, the display of storyline assignments can now optionally be
    hidden. The display is controlled via the icon in the toolbar or the option in the gear menu – including a submenu to
    select individual storylines.
  • In the Board panel, a dropdown menu is now available behind the ‘Grid
    view’ icon    , providing direct access to the various card arrangement options.
  • In the Overview panel, the configured line spacing is now preserved when closing
    and reopening the panel or the application.
  • In the ‘Enhance with AI’ dialog, the font size can now be changed using zoom-in
    and zoom-out icons.

BUGFIXES

  • When creating a new character, location, or world element via the context menu while text is selected in the
    Text panel, the cursor unintentionally jumped to the first scene. Now the cursor maintains its position in the text.
  • When the ‘References & Research’ section is displayed as its own column on the left side of the panel, the column
    can now be resized wider or narrower.
  • To avoid false search results, the first created character is now named “Character 1” by default instead of
    “Character”.
