Text rendered through GIFBUILDER can now span several lines if it exceeds a certain width. New properties breakWidth and breakSpace make this possible.

Example:

…
10 = IMAGE
10 {
   file = GIFBUILDER
   file {
      XY = [20.w]+5,[20.lineHeight]*0.3+[20.h]
      transparentBackground = 1
      # Render regular text
      20 = TEXT
      20 {
         text = This is a long text that will hopefully break automatically...
         breakWidth = 250
         breakSpace = 1.0
         offset = 0,[20.lineHeight]
         niceText = 0
      }
   }
}
…

Sometimes its not possible to find the dimensions of the entire element in GUIFBUILDER, however these dimensions need to be used in offsets. The new function max() returns the maximum of the two values. For example:
XY = [10.w]+[20.w], max([10.h], [20.h])

New function isOnCurrentHost gives a convenient way of checking that the passed URL matches the current host. One use would be to limit BE editors to referencing URLs only to the current host.

Ex:

if (t3lib_div::isOnCurrentHost($url)) {
   // Do something
}

The filelist can now be manipulated by TS. The new property will fill in the list from a declared folder:
tt_content.uploads.20.filePath

It allows you to set the filepath where images are taken from to be set via TypoScript, with a stdWrap option to dynamically set this value. By default this is set to get the value from the data record field “select_key”

Example:
Set filepath in the content element to:
fileadmin/users/{TSFE:fe_user|user|username}/

Then add the following TS:
tt_content.uploads.20.filePath.field = select_key
tt_content.uploads.20.filePath.insertData = 1

New User TS settings allow to modify limits, that were previously hardcoded:

mod.web_list.itemsLimitSingleTable = 50
mod.web_list.itemsLimitPerTable = 10
