This release lets you color the whole application with themes, and it lets a link in a browser or another application open a Markdown file directly.
Added
- Theme colors change the look of the whole window. Settings ▸ Appearance offers six built-in presets — Red Graphite, Dark Graphite, High Contrast, Charcoal, Solarized Light, and Solarized Dark — and separate color wells for the window background, the code block background, the text, and the links. A theme reaches the page, the toolbar, the sidebar, edit mode, and full screen, in both light and dark appearance (#294).
- A
md-preview://link opens a file from a browser. A link in the shapemd-preview://file/<absolute path>opens the file in the application, likecursor://file/…does for Cursor. A folder path opens through the normal folder flow, and a malformed link shows an alert that explains the expected shape (#312, #304).
Changed
- The Appearance pane in Settings replaces the Theme pane. The Automatic, Light, and Dark picker moved there from the General pane, and the Settings window always opens on the General pane (#294).
- The tab bar no longer shows a "+" button. File ▸ New Tab and ⌘T still create a tab (#294).
