Andromeda Writer v1.0.2 — Cross-Platform Release

================================================================================
Andromeda Writer - Changelog

Version 1.0.2 (November 2026)

Summary:
This update brings major stability enhancements to project management,
improved startup performance, seamless light theme contrast fixes, and
installer packaging optimizations for Windows and the Microsoft Store.

[Improvements & New Features]

• Open Project Location in Explorer:

  • Added "Open location" action to the project list context menu, allowing
    users to jump directly to the project folder inside Windows File Explorer.

• Smarter Startup & Manual Compile Workflow:

  • Stopped automatic compilation on application launch and project load.
    Projects and documents now open instantly without delay or unnecessary
    background compiler overhead.
  • Manual compilation via the header Compile button, Settings, or shortcuts
    (Ctrl+R, F5) continues to automatically save any unsaved edits before building.
  • Auto-compile on Save (Ctrl+S or auto-save) remains fully functional.

[Bug Fixes & Refinements]

• Reliable Project & Folder Deletion:

  • Fixed Windows file lock and permission issues when deleting or removing
    projects with their folders from the workspace.
  • Implemented automatic process working directory decoupling, garbage
    collection for file handle release, and read-only attribute clearance.
  • Added dedicated forget_project backend routine to purge deleted project
    references cleanly from user settings and recent workspaces.
  • Added informative dialog reporting if external processes (e.g. OneDrive,
    Windows Explorer) hold active file locks during deletion.

• Light Theme Contrast & Visual Fixes:

  • Fixed dark background issue on the "Configure Gemini API Key" modal window
    in light theme; the dialog now displays a bright, clean white surface.
  • Enhanced contrast of the API Key notification banner text (dark slate body
    text and royal blue label) ensuring clear legibility against light surfaces
    while leaving dark mode aesthetics untouched.
  • Optimized external API Studio hyperlink color for light theme.

• Packaging & Installer Enhancements:

  • Cleaned up OPC conflicting docx templates during PyInstaller build in
    build.py, resolving Microsoft Store MSIX error 0x80510005.
  • Updated Inno Setup scripts (standard, force uninstall, uninstall settings)
    and Advanced Installer (.aip) configurations to version 1.0.2.
