Changes

Features

The rendering performance of built-in list views, including the playlist view, was improved. [#1214]
The Artwork view now decodes images in a background thread and renders and resizes images using Direct2D. [#1221]
These changes are intended to improve UI responsiveness when loading large images and images that are otherwise slow to decode.

A regression in version 2.0.0 that stopped double-clicking in empty space in the Playlist tabs from creating a new playlist was fixed. [#1210]
A problem where the state of the ‘Hide when a single playlist is open’ Playlist tabs option in Preferences was reversed was fixed. [#1211]
If the Playlist tabs ‘Hide when a single playlist is open’ option is turned on, a Playlist tabs panel without a child panel now has a maximum height of 0 when there is only one playlist. [#1211]
Some minor improvements to how DirectWrite per-monitor rendering parameters are handled were made. [#1212]
