KonX 0.33.0

KonX 0.33.0 — Split screen and console windows

2026-10-27. Arrange open consoles with visible workspace controls and use smaller close buttons inside Home panels.

Changes

• Click Split screen above the tabs or from a tab's right-click menu to arrange existing views in Workbench. Choose an open tab in each pane and resize with the divider.
• Click Pop out to move the active console or tool into a separate Windows window. Drag its title bar to another monitor; use Dock back to return it.
• Use Single view to return to one view without closing tabs. Splitting and popping out preserve existing connections and do not start new ones.
• Small × icons now sit inside the top-right corner of each Home section panel. Customize Home restores hidden sections, and existing visibility choices are retained.
• Keep saved sessions, encrypted logins, all 18 themes, layouts and terminal settings.

See the workspace guide, Home guide, and update guide.

Downloads and upgrading

Windows x64: installer, portable, and checksums.

Installed 0.6.2+ and portable 0.6.0+ can use Update KonX in the top-right header or Settings → Updates. Installed 0.6.0/0.6.1 requires one manual upgrade. Save drafts, stop listeners and captures, and disconnect before restarting. Both distributions keep the existing Windows profile.

Validation

Full suite: 1,083/1,083 passed. Windows packaging verified 162 source files and 9 runtime dependencies. Packaged SSH passed 28 negotiation and 16 key-format checks; serial passed 27 synthetic checks. Unpacked and portable builds passed isolated save/restart smoke checks. Executable product versions match 0.33.0.

The new workspace workflow passed with two live loopback TCP consoles, preserving connection identity, output, logging and command focus through splitting, resizing, pop-out, native window movement and docking. Checks covered a missing second view, repeated actions, saved-layout failures, conflicting placement controls during a pending Split, native window closure, delayed source closure, and Classic/Focus return behavior. Existing panel, native pop-out, layout-model and theme workflows also passed. Home hide/restore, retained preferences and restart checks passed across the existing layout/theme matrix; the inset close controls were inspected at 900px.

Coverage

Automated release checks use isolated profiles and synthetic data. Physical equipment, live providers, physical multi-monitor changes, and an elevated installed upgrade require separate field testing. Executables remain unsigned.
