Changelog

0.8.x

0.8.2: Patch for New PyPiUpdater Version

• Updated to support PyPiUpdater 0.4.0.
• Now stores version information locally, preventing an "unknown" state on the first updater launch.
  • Users still need to press the Update button to verify the latest version, ensuring an internet connection is available.

0.8.1: Fix

• Fixed a misspelling of PyPiUpdater in the build file, which prevented v0.8.0 from being installed.

0.8.0: Updater Feature

• Added an updater function utilizing my new package PyPiUpdater.
• New updater window displaying the local version and checking for updates online.
• Added an option to update and restart the app from the menu.

---

0.7.0: Enhanced Preview

• Images loaded into the preview window are now scaled while maintaining aspect ratio.
• Added live updates: changes to brightness, contrast, or grayscale are applied immediately.
  • This may crush the system depending on image size and system specifications.
• Removed Settings from menuBar, and extended the about window.

---

0.6.0: Initial Flatpak Support

• Started Flatpak package building.
• Not added to Flathub yet, as only stable software is hosted there.
• Not fully completed, icon, name, and description are included, but the version is missing for some reason.
• Local build and installation work. The Bash script build_flatpak.sh in the flatpak/ directory generates all pip dependencies, then builds and installs the app locally.
• requirements-parser has to be installed from pip to finish installing the flatpak (maybe more pypi packages..)

---

0.5.0

• Removed all leftover of tui code that was hiding in some classes.

---

0.4.0

• Fixed a critical issue that prevented the program from functioning.
• Updated compatibility to align with the upcoming optima35 release.

Removal of TUI:

• The TUI version is no longer compatible with optima35 v1.0.
• Maintaining two UIs has become too time-consuming, as the primary focus is on the GUI, which provides the best user experience. Recently, the TUI version was only receiving patches without any meaningful enhancements.
