Release v1.10.0 · MMFoundation/WallpaperMachine

This release makes the Library quicker to work with and keeps automatic wallpaper changes, web wallpapers and your saved settings dependable

The Library gains a right-click menu, drag-and-drop import and keyboard shortcuts for faster wallpaper management (7025ba3)
Web wallpapers stay animated through Stage Manager instead of freezing (closes #177) (0b05669, e89ee04)
Playlists, Focus wallpapers and mirrored displays now change wallpapers reliably through wakes, restarts and interruptions (closes #179, closes #181) (de5f3bc, 2f6edf1, 46945f2, 70ae180, 2bb19f9)
Your saved rules, playlists and collections are no longer wiped out when one entry cannot be read (38cc583)

Right-click a wallpaper in the Library to apply it, use it on all displays, favorite it, show it in Finder, add it to a playlist, reinstall or trash it (7025ba3)
Drop wallpaper files and folders onto the Library to import them (7025ba3)
Keyboard shortcuts speed up the Library: Command-Return applies the focused wallpaper, Command-Delete trashes it, and the File menu adds Import (Command-O) and Refresh Library (Command-R) (7025ba3)
A favorite button in the selection bar adds every selected wallpaper to your favorites, or removes them all when they already are (7025ba3)

Library actions now report their result: Add to playlist says how many it added or why they won't play, while Refresh and Next wallpaper say what happened (0207e6d)
Clearing history, which also resets the Last used order, and removing a time or app rule now ask for confirmation first (0207e6d)
Settings › About › Updates now shows status, last check and the next step in one row, with release notes in their own card and earlier versions folded away (7d57bed)
A Library that cannot be read now explains why and offers Try again instead of looking empty, and thumbnails that fail to load show a mark (0207e6d)

Web wallpapers keep animating and no longer freeze when Stage Manager switches between the desktop and apps (closes #177) (0b05669, e89ee04)
Saved rules, playlists, collections and app rules are no longer erased when a single entry cannot be read, such as after returning to an older app version (38cc583)
A mirrored display keeps following its source when a playlist, rule or schedule changes the wallpaper as the Mac wakes, instead of getting stuck on one wallpaper (closes #179) (de5f3bc, 2f6edf1)
Playlist rotation resumes after an interrupted change or an empty collection, and restarts with a full interval when you return to the desktop (closes #181) (46945f2)
Focus wallpapers, and the wallpaper that returns when a Focus ends, are no longer skipped when a Workshop update or scene retry reloads the display at that moment (2bb19f9)
Signing in to Steam again while subscriptions are still loading no longer signs out the new session and removes it from this Mac (dd555eb)
A wallpaper you apply by hand on a day and night display now stays until the next half of the day, even if the app restarts (70ae180)
Shuffle again shows every wallpaper once per round when one wallpaper keeps failing to load, instead of repeating random picks (70ae180)
Day and night can no longer be set to start at the same time, which kept the night wallpaper on all day (70ae180)

Full changelog: v1.9.4...v1.10.0

Download WallpaperMachine-1.10.0-arm64.dmg and open it.
Drag WallpaperMachine onto the Applications folder in the window that opens. In-app updates
replace a copy in /Applications or ~/Applications and nowhere else.
Open it. The app is signed with the project's Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so it
