v1.0.0
f7457f7

The first stable release.

New

  • Wheel keyboard control. While a wheel is open mid-drag, the arrow keys
    move the highlight, Return runs it and Esc cancels. Your mouse release
    afterwards is caught, so the files don't also land wherever the pointer is.
  • Shelves remember themselves. Open shelves come back after a relaunch,
    including files that were moved or renamed in the meantime (Settings →
    "Restore shelves when OpenShelf opens").
  • Docked shelves hide at the screen edge, leaving a slim tab with the file
    count. Hover it, click it or drag files onto it to slide the shelf back out
    (Settings → "Hide docked shelves to the screen edge").
  • Rubber-band selection in expanded shelves: drag on empty space to select.
  • Type-to-select in shelves: type the start of a file name.
  • Screenshots and a full "How to use" guide in the README.

Fixed

  • Adding files to a shelf could crash the app while the shelf was resizing.
  • Slowing down an audio-only file with "Keep audio pitch" off could hang.

Install

  1. Download OpenShelf-1.0.0.dmg below, open it and drag OpenShelf onto Applications.
  2. Open OpenShelf from Applications. It lives in the menu bar (the wheel icon).
  3. OpenShelf isn't notarized by Apple yet, so macOS asks once on first launch:
    • macOS 15 and later: click Done, open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway.
    • macOS 14: right-click the app → Open → Open.
    • Or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/OpenShelf.app

Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on Apple silicon or Intel. See the README for how to use it.
