Feature: Search Tags for Functions

Tags on static expression functions to make them more retrievable. Functions like array_to_string are listed when the user enters "split" or "convert" or - like before - a part of the function name.

Feature: List Referenced Layer Values

When a field is a RelationReference, ValueRelation and ValueMap, there is the possibility not only to show the values of the current layer but also the possible values in the referenced layer / configured possibilities.

Feature: Edit Invalid Attributes on Copy/Paste to Another Layer

On copy-paste features from one layer to another, in case there are constraints (e.g. not null) on the destination layer, that cannot bee fulfilled automatically by default values, a dialog pops up to fix the invalid attributes or disregard the constraints on purpose.

Feature: DXF Export Improvements

We did a revamp of the DXF export process. This solidifies the export process and offers new features.

• Styles of geometries are exported and blocks are used
• The Z coordinate of 3D geometries are preserved
• Labels are exported with their anchor points and horizonal and vertical alignment or quadrant settings respected

The whole DXF export process has also been made ready for running in a thread. With this in place, it's now only one step away from being sent to the background, allow cancellation of an ongoing export process or being exposed as a processing algorithm.

Feature: Package new layers to existing GeoPackage

We improved the existing package layers processing algorithm to be able to add new layers to existing GeoPackages. All you need to do to make use of this is disable the OVERWRITE parameter and specify an existing GeoPackage.
