Ninth beta of 1.4.0. Romanized lyrics reach the lyric editor and the line under the artwork, and on macOS the Dock icon brings the window back after closing it to the tray. If you read lyrics romanized, please tell us how the readings line up with the words, most of all in Japanese.
New features
- Romanization in the lyric editor: each word of the line you're timing shows its reading underneath, so you can tell which sound a tap lands on. It follows the player's Romanized switch, which the editor's bottom bar now has too. (#676)
- Romanized lyric under the artwork: a new switch in Settings > Appearance > Player view shows the line under the cover in its romanization instead of the original script. New layout only.
- The window title names the playing song, so taskbar previews and window switchers show it.
Improvements
- Romanized word-synced lyrics sweep word by word with the line, the way Apple's do.
Bug fixes
- On macOS, clicking the Dock icon or the menu bar icon after closing the window to the tray brings it back. (#614)
- On Linux, a playing video sits in the right place at the right size when the desktop's text scaling isn't 100%. (#682)
- A Chinese line with a stylised の is romanized as pinyin instead of being read as Japanese.
