While using the Annotator on a bunch of characters (with the CEDICT dictionary selected), I
noticed that 做 didn’t get annotated.
Strangely, the ZDT Dictionary finds this character in combination with other characters, but not
when doing an “exact match” on this individual character.
The ADSO plug-in, however, does return a definition of “to do” in the Dictionary and Annotator
(it just seems to take much longer).
Would a dictionary refresh solve this or is something eating my characters?

I too, would like to see dictionary updates on a more regular basis. I'm using the handedict
dicitionary most of the time. From observing the handedict website one can see that it is evolving
rapidly. Regular updates would be very useful.
Also, how comes that searching handedict or cedict is qite fast, while searching adso is very,
very slow?

Well the Adso dictionary has quite a bit more entries than Cedict or Handedict and it seems to be
pushing the limit of the database. If there's someone out there who's a database expert who can
help me either optimize my queries or the schema, I would appreciate it.
Regarding the dictionary updates, I can do that. Perhaps I'll come up with a way to allow you to
update the dictionary files yourselves as well.

Allowing us to update the dictionaries by ourselfs would be really great!

I've just posted updates to the Cedict (0.4.0) and Handedict (0.3.0) dictionary plugins based on
the latest dictionary files.
You can download them from here:
https://sourceforge.net/project/show...kage_id=167609
The cedict dictionary of course will come automatically with the next ZDT release, but feel free
to use it now. Just make sure to delete the old 0.3.0 version of the plugin and replace it with
this new one.
Luobot, thanks for pointing out the missing character 做. It turned out to be a problem with my
code.

Thanks for the dictionary updates.
May I also request an update to the Stroke Animation component? I misses a lot of the more complex
characters.
