Numlex 4.8.2

Auto appearance and the Dark app icon are now the fresh-install defaults, and the
Settings window has been redesigned into a compact, tidy layout.

Fresh-install defaults

  • Auto appearance is the default for new installs. A fresh Numlex follows the
    macOS appearance live from the first launch: Light, Dark or an automatic switch
    mid-session all flow into the window chrome, native menus, the answer palettes and
    the editor. Light and Dark remain one-click choices, and existing installs are
    never changed     — a stored appearance (Light, Dark or Auto) is honoured exactly,
    and stores predating the Auto choice keep their established Light behavior.
  • The modern Dark app icon is the default. The Dock and App Switcher show the
    signed bundle's Liquid Glass primary icon; the optional Light icon is one click
    away in Settings and both choices come from the same compiled catalog (identical
    geometry and rendition ladder), so switching never resizes or softens the tile.

Settings redesign

  • The category navigation is a compact, centered row of icon-over-label tiles
    under the titlebar — no sidebar and no full-width tab bar. The selected tile is a
    calm neutral surface with an accent-colored icon and label.
  • The window is narrower, and pages now use the available width: the cards reach the
    window edges instead of leaving wide empty fields, and every page starts with its
    first group.
  • General gathers the Interface language, appearance and application icon in one
    aligned group, with the icon chooser as a normal trailing control.
  • Obvious captions were removed, and the custom number-format field is now a real,
    always-visible text field with a #,##0.00 placeholder before you type.
  • About shows the current app icon, the runtime version and two links
    (Documentation and GitHub) above the update controls.

Updates

Secure in-app updates are unchanged: HTTPS-only feed, EdDSA-signed archives verified
before extraction, Sparkle 2.9.6, and the automatic-check preference owned by
Sparkle itself. 4.8.0 was the first updater-enabled release; users on 4.7.0 or
earlier install this release manually once from the .dmg and update in-app
afterwards.

Installation

  • macOS 26 or later, Apple Silicon (arm64).
  • Download Numlex-4.8.2-macOS-arm64.dmg, open it and drag Numlex.app into
    Applications.
  • The app is ad-hoc signed and not notarized (a deliberate choice for this
    project). On first launch, Control-click the app and choose Open, or allow it
    under System Settings → Privacy & Security → "Open Anyway".
  • Verify the download:
    shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS and compare against the release page.
