Enhancements
- Newly detected variants of an original will now replace it in the workspace view if no other variants exist, yet
- Application restarts due to memory-overuse are now treated as “crashes”, allowing to send a crash report for debugging the cause of the high memory use
- macOS/Linux: Metadata/thumbnail cache format files and library catalog files are now written to disk, avoiding potential data loss on non-journalling file systems in case of system crashes or irregularly detached storage drives
Bug fixes
- Fixed a crash for PSD files for which loading the advertise compatibility image data fails
- Fixed grayscale images with more than 8-bit precision to not be truncated to 8-bit
- Fixed a possible crash caused by truncated EXIF data in JXL or PSD files
- Fixed a possible crash when viewing zero-pixel sized images or non-images in details view
- Fixed a too low memory overuse barrier causing unneeded application restarts on systems with 8 GB or less RAM
Feel free to leave any feedback here or in the bug reports sub forum. Thanks for helping to shape a new way of organizing photos!
