Service Release 2 has a major focus on stability, correcting a few issues, some longstanding, which seem to have been worse in DBT <14.1 than in previous releases.
- UIA-related crashes have been fixed. These were likely to cause problems specifically for JAWS users.
- A problem that caused DBT to crash when closing documents on some customer computers has been fixed. This problem was highly associated with display of a translated line.
- A bug that could cause DBT to crash when using Alt-arrow keys to navigate through a table has been fixed.
