Hey everyone,

a new version of Aspect has been released: 1.0.0-preview.5. You’ll find the download links at the bottom of this post. Simply install over the existing installation to upgrade. The following changes and additions are included:

## New features

- Reworked the page transition system
  - Page transitions are more refined and more fluent
  - There are still some glitches left, mostly concerning the scroll position before/after the switch

- Added a first-start introduction to the application (#465)
  - The introduction is shown when loading

- Added a demo library - note that this does not represent the final state (#466)

## Enhancements

- Improved drawing and scrolling performance
- Image analysis now runs on all CPU cores (#421)
- The notification pane now shows a placeholder message when no notifications exist (#469)
- The rename mode is now activated immediately after creating a new event from a selection of images, rather than waiting for all images to be moved
- When importing a file that is a duplicate of a missing library file, that file now gets recovered from the imported file
- Now displays a notice when browsing a folder that is part of an Aspect library (#453)
- Improved application responsiveness for libraries that are stored on network drives
- Improved initial window placement
- Fixed a delay and possible duplicated menu content when opening the main menu on Windows/Linux
- Now showing “Storing library” while closing a library

## Bug fixes

- Fixed the vertical alignment of the progress indicator in the import and add folder as event dialogs
- Fixed a potential timing related crash when editing an image (#468)
- Fixed possible failure to detect duplicates during import
- Fixed sorting by aspect ratio for images that have a non-default orientation
- Empty individual photos folders are now properly deleted when only empty sub folders or hidden files remain
- Fixed a crash when a missing individual photos folder is manually restored in the file system
- Fixed handling of moved and copied individual photos folders
- Hidden files/folders, macOS auxiliary folders in particular, are now moved in the the system trash when deleting events, instead of being left over
- Fixed a possible crash when importing files with “Keep import source” enabled
- Fixed wrong keyboard focus after switching to details view and back to thumbnail view
- Fixed the appearance of tab control headers and the navigation/drive panels when disabled
- Fixed loading of HEIF images on macOS (#471)
