+
+### 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+- **DOCX Import**: Fixed paragraph style bold/italic not being captured. Headings using styles like "Title" or "Subtitle" now correctly export as bold. Previously only direct run-level formatting was detected.

+## 🧪 Cache Kill Switch & Performance Improvements (v1.9.155-162) - January 26, 2026
+
+**Experimental Cache Bypass for Faster Grid Navigation**
+
+This release includes a series of performance optimizations and a new experimental feature for testing grid responsiveness.
+
+### 🧪 NEW: Cache Kill Switch (v1.9.162)
+
+Added experimental setting to bypass all caching systems:
+
+- **Location**: Settings → General → 🧪 Experimental Performance
+- **Option**: "Disable all caches (for testing responsiveness)"
+- **What it does**: Bypasses translation_matches_cache, termbase_cache, prefetch workers
+- **Result**: Direct SQLite lookups - may actually be faster due to no lock contention!
+
+Use this setting to test whether caching is helping or hurting your workflow.
+
+### ⚡ Performance Optimizations (v1.9.155-161)
+
+**Ctrl+Enter Speed Improvements:**
+- Reduced verbose logging overhead (15-20 fewer log calls per navigation)
+- Preview tab now skips TM/glossary lookups entirely (faster reviewing)
+- Idle prefetch system loads matches while you type (Ctrl+Enter feels instant)
+- Direct termbase lookups in prefetch worker (no more race conditions)
+
+**TM Matching Fixes:**
+- Fixed missing fuzzy matches when using multiple TMs (increased FTS5 candidate pool)
+- Fixed crashes when no TMs activated or only "Write" enabled
+- Fixed wrong dictionary key in TM exact match lookups
+
+**Proactive Grid Highlighting (v1.9.161):**
+- Glossary terms now highlight in UPCOMING segments while you work on current one
+- See terms in segments 255, 256, 257 while editing segment 254
+- No more waiting for highlighting after navigation
+
+### 🔧 Bug Fixes
+
+- Fixed batch translation crashes with empty TM lists
+- Fixed TM pre-translation SQLite threading errors (now runs on main thread)
+- Fixed retry pass variable scope issues in batch translate
+- Fixed various logging and debug output issues
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Match Panel Consolidation (v1.9.154) - January 25, 2026
+
+**Streamlined Right Panel UI**
+
+Replaced the Compare Panel with a more focused Match Panel that combines glossary terms and TM matches in one convenient view.
+
+**What Changed:**
+- **Compare Panel removed**: Was redundant with Translation Results panel
+- **Match Panel introduced**: Combines Termview (glossary) + TM Source/Target boxes
+- **Green TM boxes**: TM matches display with green background (#d4edda) for easy identification
+- **Zoom shortcuts work**: Ctrl+Alt+= and Ctrl+Alt+- now zoom the Match Panel TM boxes
+- **Cleaner tab structure**: Fewer tabs = less switching during translation
+
+**New Right Panel Tabs:**
+1. Translation Results (TM/MT/Glossary matches in list view)
+2. Match Panel (Termview + TM Source/Target side-by-side)
+3. Preview (document preview)
+4. Segment Note
+5. Session Log
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Less tab clutter - removed redundant Compare Panel
+- ✅ Glossary terms and TM matches visible together in Match Panel
+- ✅ Green highlighting makes TM boxes easy to spot
+- ✅ Keyboard zoom shortcuts work on TM boxes
+

+
+## 📐 Tab Layout Reorganization (v1.9.153) - January 23, 2026
+
+**Better Workflow Organization**
+
+Redesigned the tab layout to consolidate resources and improve translation workflow:
+
+**What Changed:**
+- **Termview stays under grid**: Original position preserved for quick glossary access
+- **Second Termview in right panel**: Duplicate instance so you can see terms while viewing other tabs
+- **Segment Note moved**: Now in right panel alongside Compare Panel and Preview
+- **Session Log moved**: Also in right panel for better organization
+- **Simultaneous updates**: Both Termview instances update together automatically
+
+**New Tab Structure:**
+- **Left panel**: Grid + Termview (collapsible)
+- **Right panel**: Translation Results, Compare Panel, Preview, Segment Note, Session Log, Termview (6 tabs)
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ All reference materials (TM, glossary, notes) in one location
+- ✅ Grid area cleaner - just grid + glossary
+- ✅ Two Termview instances let you see terms while using other tabs
+- ✅ Ctrl+N shortcut still works to jump to Segment Note tab
+
+**Implementation:**
+- New helper method: `_update_both_termviews()` - updates both instances simultaneously
+- Updated 5 locations where Termview gets updated
+- Modified tab creation code to reorganize layout
+- Updated Ctrl+N shortcut to find tab by name (works regardless of tab visibility)
+
+**Future Enhancement (Phase 2):**
+User requested advanced docking: ability to drag tabs to dock them vertically in the right panel (like VS Code). This would require QDockWidget architecture - a significant refactor planned for future version.
+
+---
+
+## ⚡ Instant Glossary Updates (v1.9.152) - January 23, 2026
+
+**Lightning-Fast Term Addition Performance**
+
+Adding terms to glossaries is now instant! The 5-6 second delay when using Alt+Shift+Up/Down shortcuts has been eliminated.
+
+**The Problem:**
+- Users experienced 5-6 second delays after adding glossary terms during translation
+- Long patent sentences with 50+ words required 50+ individual database searches
+- The app was searching for ALL words again just to find the ONE term we just added
+
+**The Solution:**
+- **Direct cache update**: New term added directly to cache instead of full segment re-search
+- **Immediate TermView update**: Display updates instantly using cached matches
+- **Smart highlighting**: Source cell highlighting updated via direct function call
+- **Zero database searches**: We already know what we added - no need to search for it!
+
+**Result:**
+- ✅ TermView shows new term instantly (< 0.1 seconds)
+- ✅ Source highlighting updates instantly
+- ✅ Smooth, responsive workflow for building glossaries
+- ✅ Perfect for intensive patent translation workflows
+
+**Technical Implementation:**
+- Modified `_quick_add_term_with_priority()` to create match entry directly from added term
+- Bypasses expensive `find_termbase_matches_in_source()` database search
+- Calls `highlight_source_with_termbase()` directly with updated cache
+- Maintains all existing functionality while eliminating performance bottleneck
+
+**Files Modified:**
+- `Supervertaler.py` - Optimized glossary quick-add workflow (~60 lines modified)
+
+**🛡️ Exit Crash Fix:**
+- Enhanced `_cleanup_web_views()` method to prevent Python crash on program exit
+- Now properly stops all WebEngine page loading/rendering before cleanup
+- Processes events multiple times and adds delay to ensure Qt finishes cleanup
+- No more "Python has stopped working" dialog when using File → Exit
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 TM Pre-Translation Fixed (v1.9.151) - January 23, 2026
+
+**Critical Fix:** "Pre-translate from TM" batch operation now correctly finds TM matches!
+
+**What Was Broken:**
+- Running Edit → Batch Operations → Pre-translate from TM found 0 matches
+- Even when a 100% TM match was clearly visible in the Compare Panel
+- Issue: SQLite databases cannot be shared across threads
+
+**Root Cause:**
+The `PreTranslationWorker` ran in a background thread, but SQLite connections created in the main thread cannot be used in other threads. This caused a `sqlite3.ProgrammingError`.
+
+**The Fix:**
+- TM pre-translation now runs **on the main thread** (same as the Compare Panel)
+- Uses `QProgressDialog` to show progress and keep UI responsive
+- Uses the **exact same database methods** that work for segment navigation
+- No more SQLite threading errors!
+
+**Before:** "Pre-translate from TM" → 0 matches found
+**After:** "Pre-translate from TM" → Correctly finds all TM matches
