About this release:
While we said "Pineapple Pictures will be entering maintenance mode for the foreseeable future" in the previous update, we still got a new feature release! In this update, we introduced an optional transparent title bar that display the name of the current file, and allows user drag it to move the window and double-click to toggle maximization. For people who want the original behavior (i.e. just a close button), there is also a settings option in the settings dialog. Uncheck the "Show title bar", restart the application, and done :)
Additionally, we also improved its Windows support as well. Now on Windows, the application will use the system-native open-window animation. Beside the animation, Aero-Snap now also works as well when you dragging the window around. Hope both these two changes could make it more intuitive to move the window around and make it easier to position the window to a preferred location.
There are no much other changes beside these two features. As mentioned before, I've shifted my focus to create a new cross-platform Notepad++ alternative: Pineapple Notepad. Pineapple Pictures will still be in a maintenance mode for the foreseeable future, but no worry, it will still receive updates, just like this update. By the way, Pineapple Notepad is also seeking funding. Feel free to visit the project's README to learn more about the new app and potential sponsorship opportunities.
As always, I would like to say thanks to all the contributors who donated their time working on the translation. If you are interested to improve existing translations or adding new translations, head to Weblate and then start translating! I'd like to thank all my previous sponsors as well for supporting this project financially. If you are also interested, feel free to check out my Ko-fi page :)
If you have any issues using this program, feel free to open a new discussion thread or a new Issue when needed.
