Location Reminders

Location reminders can be handy for getting a little nudge when you are in the right area to complete an action. In order to use them, you need to have iOS 5 installed, and have an iPhone 4 or later. Please see Setting up Location Reminders in OmniFocus Help for additional information.

Map

Map mode always shows available actions and contexts with available actions.
Several improvements were made to the behavior of the Map when Location Services is disabled. (Map mode requires Location Services to be enabled for full functionality.)
Tapping the Center Map button always refreshes the current location before centering the map.
Fixed a bug where which resulted in stale business names and distances in Map list view after updating the current location.

Forecast

On iOS 5, calendars with identical names from different accounts can be independently hidden from the Forecast event timeline.
On iOS 5, calendars in Forecast View Options are grouped by account.
When returning to the main Forecast screen from an item editor or event inspector, your scroll position in the list is no longer lost.

Editors

Improved interaction with the onscreen keyboard when using various international keyboard layouts on iOS 5.
Improved feedback when tapping on the location type buttons in the Context Location inspector.
The Current Location button in the Context Location inspector is disabled when Location Services is disabled.
When tapping the Current Location button in the Context Location inspector, the user is alerted when the location cannot be determined.
The Context Location inspector better handles geocoding failures when setting up a context’s location using a contact.

Workflow

The Remaining view filter in Context mode now displays remaining actions in remaining projects.

Sync

The Bonjour login panel now identifies the Mac we are syncing with by name.
Automatic syncs are no longer inappropriately started when OmniFocus is waiting for the user to enter their sync username and password.
Fixed a bug where the Subscribe in iCal button was not enabled for Omni Sync Server users whose accounts reside on one of the alternate sync servers

Misc

In the context list, context badges indicate whether there is a location and location reminder associated with the context.
When audio attachment recording or playback finishes, background audio is now resumed.
Distances are now displayed in miles when the Region Format is set to United Kingdom.

is iCloud on the to-do list? it would seem logical.

Information on iCloud support is available over in this thread (http://forums.omnigroup.com/showthread.php?t=21339) in the OmniFocus Syncing forum.

I suspect this question will get asked in a couple of different locations on the forum, so thanks for giving me an excuse to cross-link to that thread in this one, Gregory. ;-)
