Highlights since 0.16.9
- Spell checking in your document's language. Lattice reads the document language from babel or polyglossia. Other languages get spell checking with a dictionary downloaded on first use; English keeps spelling and grammar checks. Thanks to @quark67.
- New project templates. IEEE conference, IEEE journal and ACM (acmart).
- Experimental Windows installer. Each release now includes an unsigned Windows x64 installer. It is experimental; see docs/windows-installer.md before installing. Thanks to @LucasDavidTPE.
Notable fixes
- "Install missing package" no longer gives up when several TeX Live packages provide the same file (such as
IEEEtran.cls); Lattice lets you choose which one to install. - Lower idle CPU use: no always-running animations, Overleaf checks pause while the window is hidden, and continuous file writes trigger fewer full project rescans.
- About Lattice and the Help menu link to the GitHub repository and the website. Thanks to @quark67.
- On Windows, the Overleaf sign-in window no longer opens blank. Thanks to @ivanvykopal.

Install (Apple Silicon Mac)
Download the .dmg below, open it, and drag Lattice to Applications.
Lattice is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
Already running Lattice? It updates itself automatically — no need to
re-download.
Full Changelog: v0.16.9...v0.16.10
Install (Linux, experimental)
Download the .AppImage below, make it executable
(chmod +x Lattice_*.AppImage), and run it. It needs an x86_64
distribution at least as new as Ubuntu 22.04 (tested on Ubuntu
22.04 and 24.04 and Fedora 45), and your own TeX Live from the
distribution's packages. If FUSE 2 is missing, run it with
--appimage-extract-and-run.
On Linux, Lattice does not update itself — download each new release
here — and the built-in Agent is not available yet.
Install (Intel Mac)
On a Mac with an Intel processor, download Lattice_0.16.10_x64.dmg below instead,
open it, and drag Lattice to Applications. It needs macOS 14 or
later, is signed and notarized like the Apple silicon download, and
updates itself the same way.
