Rune v0.2.0
Rune v0.2.0 — annotations, self-update, and gesture fixes.
New
- Annotations: highlight, underline, and strikeout from a text selection, plus sticky notes — saved as standard PDF annotations that any reader can see. Right-click a selection, press
Ctrl+Hto highlight, and save withCtrl+S/Ctrl+Shift+S. Unsaved changes are flagged on the tab and prompt on close. - Self-updating: Rune checks GitHub for newer releases (toggle in Settings, or "Check for updates now") and, for the portable build, downloads and installs the update in place.
- Pinch-to-zoom: touch and precision-touchpad pinch now zoom, alongside
Ctrl+scroll — both zoom at the cursor and re-render crisp.
Fixed
- Night mode button/
Ctrl+Idid nothing after v0.1's title-bar tab refactor — now inverts every open tab again. - Zoom gestures weren't wired at all — pinch and
Ctrl+wheel now work. - Rotate left pages blank (wide rotated tiles silently failed to draw) — rotation now renders correctly through all four orientations and clears stale selection/search highlights.
