🚀 What's New in v4.2.3
✨ Highlights
- Web & Browser Typing Stability: Resolved contenteditable word duplication, cursor jump desyncs, and stutter syllable predictions in browser input fields and web text editors.
- Online AI Voice Input (Standard Flavor): Added optional cloud-based speech-to-text dictation supporting Groq Whisper, Gemini, and OpenAI-compatible endpoints with full RFC 2046 compliance, while maintaining strict air-gapped zero-network isolation in the offline flavor.
- Procedural Soft Sound Packs: Added 6 new zero-latency custom sound packs to the fallback catalog, including the procedurally synthesized restoration of Soft Pudding (Synth), Muted Marshmallow, Felted Thock, Membrane Squish, Cork Tap, and Velvet Whisper.
- Visual Shift & Caps Lock Distinction: Redesigned Shift key arrow icons with clear visual states: outlined arrow for normal unshifted, filled arrow for shifted single-character, and underlined arrow for locked Caps Lock.
🛠️ Improvements & Enhancements
- Immediate Clipboard Suggestions: Copied text now surfaces immediately in the suggestion strip upon copy without delay or prediction conflicts.
- Independent Action Key Corner Radius: Added a dedicated corner radius slider for the Action/Enter key in Theme Settings, allowing custom pill or rectangular styling independent of other functional keys.
- Dynamic Theme Action Accent: Restored vibrant primary accent styling for the action key in dynamic light theme modes.
- Auto-Show Toolbar: Added new preference to automatically display the toolbar when no word suggestions are present.
- Settings UX Polish: Streamlined Voice Input settings with dynamic option gating and eliminated duplicate IME window insets and keyboard glitches across dialog screens.
