Multiwindows [Devlog 12]

Devlog!

void◆sprite has recieved its monthly update! There have been many great changes, alongside detachable workspaces.

Do note that with this release we’re now making arm64 Mac builds. I have no way of testing if they work, so please let me know. We’ve also started working on the web manual, which you can help write in its separate repository: https://github.com/counter185/voidsprite-web-manual

Full list of changes:

• Update checker: on Windows and Android voidsprite can now call the GitHub Actions API to check if there’s a new version available on nightly.link

• Improved scrolling which now supports floating point numbers

• Initial work on a generic pixel data extractor (something like .data in GIMP)

• Split featureset based on platform: some UI elements and settings will not appear if they’re tied to a feature that the platform doesn’t support

• Initial work on a native plugin system

• Power saving modes: Off - no FPS lock, Medium - 20 FPS lock when unfocused, Maximum - 2 FPS lock when unfocused, Automatic - choose based on battery level

• Text fields can now copy/paste

• Direct path input in non-system file picker

• Android: add a proper APK signature to allow updates

• Native Mac ARM64 builds

• The navigation bar only shows the submenu keys on Alt focus now

• Multiple windows: you can now detach workspaces into separate windows that are still part of one voidsprite instance.

• Fix split sessions not tracking unsaved changes

• Added a link to the web manual in the launchpad navbar Help section

• Improved selection rendering performance

That is all!

We sincerely hope you enjoy this update! -the void◆sprite team
