Pelmet 0.3.1-beta.1

First beta after 0.3.0, on the beta channel only (Settings › About › "Get beta releases"). Mostly things you asked for since the launch, plus a handful of fixes.

New:

  • A click on Pelmet's Camera & mic item opens Apple's own camera and
    screen sharing controls (#68, thanks @rd-david-wahlandt). macOS takes
    that pill off the bar as soon as any icon is hidden, and with it video
    effects, Mic Mode and Stop Sharing. Pelmet now brings the pill back for
    a moment to open its panel, then hides the bar again. Your icons stay
    hidden. It's about 0.7s from the click, most of it macOS putting the
    pill back, and a right-click still opens Privacy settings.
  • ⌃⌥⌘, reveals Always Hidden too, and a second press hides it all (#67,
    thanks @C3PO-1). With the icon off there was no way to reach Always
    Hidden. It's in Settings with the other shortcuts.
  • A dot style for Pelmet's icon, filled while icons are hidden and an
    outline while they're shown (#62, thanks @samismustard).
  • The app icon is Liquid Glass now, so macOS draws its dark, clear and
    tinted looks itself (#63, thanks @samismustard).

Fixed:

  • A ⌘-drag could lose track of the icon you moved (#64, thanks
    @GianAndris). The bar hid again before the icon had landed and Pelmet
    credited the wrong one. It now waits for the drop, and Apply stops
    moving icons that are already where they belong.
  • On a Mac in another language than English, the Notification Center
    shortcut opened the panel and closed it again (#58, thanks @robinhur).
    Pelmet looked for the panel by its English name. It now goes by the app
    itself, which reads the same in every language.
  • Two clicks close together could draw stale copies of your icons next
    to the real ones (#61, thanks @samismustard). The second transition
    started while the first one's pictures were still lifting. Each one now
    waits for the last.
  • Apply's report now says only what it couldn't move, and it goes away
    with the tab (#60, thanks @oantonov).
  • An icon macOS took off the bar by itself was shown as refusing to hide
    (#66, thanks @robinhur). The editor now says what happened, and when
    the app runs from outside an Applications folder, to open it from
    there.
