Evolve v1.6.1 - New Features and Bug Fixes (Patreon)

Attention, Patreon Premium Members!

To switch to the public version, simply install this release. If you'd prefer to stay on the Patreon build, update from within the app to continue enjoying exclusive features, relevant updates, and get early access to upcoming v1.7 features! If you’ve already installed v1.6, you likely received the update notification to v1.6.1 a few weeks ago. Get v1.6 from here and then update if you don't have it installed!

Thank you for your continued support! Stay tuned for more exciting features and improvements in future releases!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Extensive public testing has led to several new decisions, added features, bug fixes, and more. Update now to enjoy improved stability and exciting new features!

• Global Theme Scripts

  

  Introducing a new feature that allows you to run scripts when changing the global theme! You can enable this in the App Settings. A user suggested this feature, and here it is—implemented for you to try out. You might find it useful too!

• Less Intrusive Update Notifications

  
  I understand how annoying constant full-screen update alerts can be. Now, you won’t be redirected to the New Version page for less critical updates. Simply toggle the option in App Settings if you want to stop receiving full-screen notifications for all updates.

• Improved animations and performance
  The Extensions Page now loads everything faster and updates in real-time for a smoother experience. The shimmer effects are updated with a smooth ease. Try this version for the full experience!

• Adaptive Colors & Glassmorphism Enhancements

  
  When Adaptive Colors is turned on, a subtle hint of your wallpaper will blend into the app background, creating a more cohesive look. This is only available for Patreon release.

• UI Enhancements: Sidebar Blur & Layout Adjustments

  
  If you’re using the app in a smaller window, you’ll notice a new subtle blur effect in the sidebar. Additionally, I've revised the app layout to reduce unnecessary blank space, thanks to the recent switch back to the default title bar.

• Title Bar Change for Better Stability

  
  Speaking of the title bar, I’ve removed the custom title bar. It was causing more issues than it solved (including excessive terminal warnings), so we’re back to the default, which also improves overall app stability.

• More Accurate Icons Page

  The Icons page now displays icons more accurately, making it easier to manage your themes and customizations.

• Improved Search in Online Extensions Store
  Search history in the Online Extensions Store now works more intuitively, providing a better browsing experience.

• Update Handling Improvements
  Evolve now automatically downloads and installs updates (only for patreon release), and it processes updates based on "build numbers" instead of just app versions. The baseline build number is now set at 161. You can also view the current build number in the About page, and if updates are available, you'll see a handy update button. This is build 162.

Minor Bug Fixes:

• Fixed minor issues to enhance overall stability and user experience.
