ShortPath v1.0.2

What's fixed

Compact mode window no longer expands during drag

When dragging the compact icon, Windows DWM (Aero Snap and edge behavior) could resize the transparent frameless window mid-drag. The 16ms polling loop only called setPosition(x, y) and never re-asserted the window size, so any OS-driven resize persisted for the entire drag.

Fix: the polling loop now calls setBounds({x, y, width: sz, height: sz}) on every frame, and setMaximumSize(sz, sz) is set on compact enter (cleared on restore). The compact icon stays exactly sz × sz throughout the drag regardless of OS behavior.

Tests

3 new unit tests verify the drag size invariant. All confirmed failing against the pre-fix code and passing after.

ShortPath v1.0.1

Bug fixes

• Subfolder collapse regression — Subfolders that were manually collapsed would silently re-expand whenever any other action (star, copy) caused a re-render while Expand All was still active. Also fixed: groups in All mode could become impossible to collapse after switching from single-source mode.
• Compact mode icon grows during drag — The icon scaled up continuously while being dragged. Now the size is locked at its resting state for the full drag duration.
• Pin button on Support Tools — The pin button (dot) regressed back onto Support Tools cards. Removed.
• Copy count badge on Favorites — The usage counter (e.g. "3×") was showing on Favorites cards. Removed from that view; the counter still works for Most Used sorting.

No data migration needed. Your entries, settings, and sync sources are unchanged.
