About this version

This release is once again solely about stability improvements, various optimizations and localization improvements for the recently introduced v3 app version (with new features like color mode selection for Apple Silicon Macs and DDC auto-configuration).

With all the quality improvements, we are now reaching the amazing goal of 99.9%+ of users never experiencing any severe issue (crash according to received telemetry) using the app.

Licensing & compatibility recap: If you bought Pro for v2, you get a free upgrade to v3. If you purchased Pro before June 14, 2023 (the first v2 pre-release), you should get a new Pro license for v3 to support development - but to make life easier, the app will still activate with any Pro license key ever issued. Current Pro licenses work for all past app versions. App version v3 requires macOS Ventura 13.2 or newer - legacy releases for older macOS versions are linked in the main GitHub page.

Note to macOS Sequoia beta users: please update to this version for the best experience - older versions are not fully compatible with the latest macOS beta.

Enhancements

  • Improve Display Mode menu rendering speed when a lot of resolutions are listed - #3307
  • Applying system configuration should show reboot message or offer activation only even when relevant displays are affected by the change - #3321
  • App menu expanding menu and Settings expanding block chevrons should be rotating nicely - #3322
  • Improved compatibility with the latest macOS Sequoia beta version

Fixed

  • App may crash in some circumstances after applying system configuration edits - #3319
  • System configuration edits are allowed for currently disconnected displays but changes cannot be applied and undo does not work - #3320
  • Expanding menu icon unceremoniously jumps to the top during opening animation instead of moving smoothly - #3312
  • Erroneous out-of-bounds DDC reads might cause various issues - #3296
  • Erroneously rendered resolution slider when a mode is selected that has no same aspect-ratio alternative - #3305
  • The Connection status item under Display Information... is not localized - #3306
  • App stores values of yet untouched DDC controls during auto-configuration - this might cause issues, better keep untouched status - #3313
  • App menu location seems to fluctuate 1px vertically in some situations during animations - #3316
