UI Changes
- Replaced custom window control buttons with native controls.
- Added a new option to display answers directly below expressions. (Ref #86)
This can be configured in Settings, alongside existing options to display answers either left-aligned with a divider or right-aligned without one. - Introduced an option to start the calculator with a blank page. (Ref #155)
- If a blank page already exists on startup, it will be shown.
- If not, a new blank page will be created.
- Disabled by default. By default, the app reopens to the last active page.
- Simplified customization of the Plain theme (used when syntax highlighting is off) via the Theme Customizer in Settings.
- Moved the Print button from the side panel to the main panel for easier access.
- Main dialogs (e.g., Settings, New Page) are now draggable. Double-clicking the title resets their position to the center of the screen.
- Reorganized Settings menus for better usability.
- Replaced the “Plot” text link with an icon for a cleaner interface.
- Currencies can now be entered using lowercase letters (e.g.,
usdis treated the same asUSD). (Ref #98) - Implemented various subtle UI tweaks and visual improvements.
Under-the-Hood Improvements
- Switched to cached DOM elements to boost performance.
- Refactored most of the code for better performance and maintainability.
Breaking Changes
- User locale settings no longer apply to input expressions—only to answers. Commas (
,) are now the only accepted separator for function variables. This change improves consistency and simplifies syntax. (Ref #112)- The default locale is now set to “System.”
- Commas are automatically stripped from pasted answers by default. This can be disabled in Settings. (Ref #119)
Note
An app reset (from Settings > Reset App link) is recommended to make sure all new features are loaded properly. Make sure to back up all calculations and settings.
