What's new in version 1.4

Version 1.4 of the i2 Notebook API contains new functionality that allows a plug-in to display a modal dialog, so that it can block interactions with the rest of the application while it presents information or questions to a user. The new version also contains updates that cover functional changes to the i2 Notebook application, including clipboard operations and new chart popup menus.
