Bug fixes:

  • Tweak battery/power check to do a better job of handling errors, should help with #30

UI updates:

  • Cleanup prefs form a bit. Remove screensaver source repo as an option. I might add this back, but it seems like an easy way to break the app, and I don't know if anyone is using it?

Other updates:

  • Add screensavers to the main download instead of making them an extra download when the app boots. This adds a bit to the release size, but means that the app will basically always work once it's been downloaded
  • Tweak idle checks to run less frequently, which should cut back a little bit on our CPU usage
  • Update the logic for fullscreen detection to hopefully deal with windows which overlap the edge of the screen on OSX
  • Update Electron to v6
  • Update other assorted packages

v0.11.1

UI updates:

  • Removed tabs from the preferences and editor windows.
  • Simplified the main prefs window, and added a modal that has some advanced options.
  • Switched from using webview to BrowserView for screensaver previews. This is still a little rough around the edges.
  • Lots of styling changes.
  • Tweaked font sizing to be a little smaller in most places.
  • Tweaked the 'new screensaver' window to have an input to set your local directory if needed.
  • Added some code to output console/error messages from screensavers to the editor console tab.
  • Hide the file menu on Windows/Linux since it's pretty unsightly.

Other updates:

  • Updated assorted packages.
  • Fixed some bugs, including a really annoying one which could cause a really bad issue where the screensaver list wouldn't fully populate correctly.
  • General code refinements.
  • Got tests mostly running on Travis CI and Appveyor, which should help keep the app stable.
  • Other general test updates.

This release restores the 'random' screensaver which picks a screensaver randomly when loading. It was coded awhile ago but disappeared for an assortment of reasons. It also fixes a few bugs and updates some underlying packages.
