New Features
Icon
Thanks to the very generous Tom Bridge and Technolutionary, LLC, we now have an Icon for ProfileCreator!
The icon is made by the artist Katherine M. Ahern which you can find at her website: kateahern.com
App Updates
From this version and forward the application will show a notification whenever a new version of the app is released.
And through the Sparkle framework you will also be able to update the application in place without needing to manually download it from GitHub.
Notes
A text box has been added where the value for the key pfm_note will be shown to bring extra attention to some aspect of the payload key.
Substitution Variables
A new key in the manifest allows the manifest creator to define available substitution variables for the specific key.
Substitution variables are shown in purple and will show a popover when hovering the mouse over them describing the variable and the source for it's replacement.
Button: Import
An import button is now available for all keys that support drag/drop as a method of importing data for a payload key.
Button: Remove
A "Remove" button is now available for data payload keys where files can be added. (#156)
Additional Payload Key Information
Added additional fields to the footer introduced in version 0.2.5:
- Scope (Shows if a payload key is only supported in a subset of the scopes for the entire payload)
On Demand loading of dynamic local preferences manifests
From this version, the local preferences generated manifest are only loaded if that option is selected from the app preferences.
Multiple selections in tableview allowed
It is now possible to select multiple rows in a tableview.
New build versioning system
To comply with the Sparkle framework for updates, the build number CFBundleVersion will from now on always be incremented for each release.
