Line 25: − + − A button has been added to the Journal toolbar to filter for favorite entries to give a better way of marking entries as 'important'.

A lot of work has been going into bringing the Journal implementation closer to its design. The Object Chooser can now be filtered by data type.
A lot of work has gone into bringing the Journal implementation closer to its design. The Object Chooser can now be filtered by data type, which improves the experience in activities like Write that can fetch content from the journal, eg images. A button has been added to the toolbar to filter for favorite entries to give a better way of marking entries as 'important'.
Reading removable devices like usb sticks should be more reliable now that the journal doesn't depend on an index on the removable device.
The Journal entry Palette has seen some great improvements. We added a '''View Details''' option that brings you to the details of the entry. Furthermore you do not need to go to the detail view any more to select the activity you want to start or resume the entry with - this option is now available in the Palette as well.

The Journal's search and browsing capabilities are less useful if all entries are named the same regardless of their actual content or meaning to the user. That is why an alert has been added that encourages the user to set the title and other properties of a newly created Journal entry. This alert is only shown on the creation of a new Journal entry, not on resume.
