Update - v1.2.1-min.2

Small update with a new start page background system and a way to open pages with certificate warnings.

Added

  • "Proceed anyway" on nn://notsecure: Pages with an untrusted certificate can now be opened on purpose via the new red "Trotzdem fortfahren (unsicher)" button.
    • The exception only applies to that one domain and only until the browser is restarted.
    • The page loads in the same history entry, so the Back button doesn't lead back to the warning.
    • The address bar shows a yellow warning triangle instead of the green padlock for these pages.
    • The details text on the warning page now explains the risk.
  • Start page backgrounds: "Homepage bearbeiten" now offers five modes:
    • Spotlight: Windows Spotlight images loaded online from the Spotlight API (up to 4K).
    • Landscape: Daily landscape and nature photos from the Bing image archive.
    • Own image: Upload your own PNG, JPG or WebP (720p to 4K), as before.
    • Color: 8 preset colors or a custom color. The text color adapts automatically on light backgrounds.
    • None: No background.
  • "Anderes Bild" button to switch the current Spotlight or landscape image right away.
  • Title and copyright of the current photo are shown in the bottom left corner of the start page.

Changed

  • Without a custom image, the start page now uses Windows Spotlight by default. An existing custom image is kept.
  • If Spotlight can't be reached, landscape images are used as a fallback, and the editor shows a hint.
  • A random Spotlight or landscape image is picked on every browser start.
  • "Homepage bearbeiten" was redesigned with a mode selector and live preview, and the dialog is a bit wider.

Fixed

  • The start page background no longer shows up on the error pages (nn://error, nn://notsecure).

Note

  • The Spotlight API is not officially documented by Microsoft and may change at any time. That is why landscape images serve as a fallback.
