v1.0.0-preview.3

Hot Corners 1.0.0-preview.3

Test build — not the final 1.0.0.

• Window-control protection now checks the whole corner area, so reaching for a minimize, maximize or close button near a corner is less likely to fire it.

Updating from an earlier preview: with Preview selected in the tray's update-channel menu, check for updates. Stable-channel users are never offered a preview.

v1.0.0-preview.2

Hot Corners 1.0.0-preview.2

Test build — not the final 1.0.0. The feature set for 1.0.0 is still being settled; expect changes between previews.

• Automatic profile switching (off by default): the profile in effect follows the program in front, by rules you set on the Layouts tab, with a fallback profile when no rule matches. The saved active profile never changes. From the tray you can keep the current profile until you resume switching.
• Accidental-activation protection, on by default and set per profile: corners pause while a mouse button is held (drags, selections) and when the corner overlaps a window's minimize, maximize or close button. Status and safe testing say why a corner is quiet.
• Window controls are protected on DPI-unaware and system-aware windows at display scales above 100%.
• Settings: the General tab fits without scrolling; each protection has a one-line explanation.
• Settings files move to schema 5. Earlier files are read and upgraded in memory, and written as schema 5 the next time settings are saved.

Updating from preview 1: choose Preview in the tray's update-channel menu, then check for updates. Stable-channel users are never offered a preview.

v1.0.0-preview.1

Hot Corners 1.0.0-preview.1

Test build — not the final 1.0.0. The feature set for 1.0.0 is still being settled; expect changes between previews.

• Windows corner actions, dwell feedback ring, and appearance themes.
• Profiles, per-display corners, and safe corner testing (preview labels).
• Refreshed Settings window, opened from the tray by double-click: a corner map with per-corner Action, Timing and Alternate tabs, a grouped Action dropdown with icons, and an Edit popup for the Launch and Run command fields that opens when you pick them.
• Settings feedback appears where you act: the pressed button shows Saved or Failed (reason in its tooltip), a corner's validation error shows under its Action, and a status line in the header covers the rest. There are no banners.
• Safe corner testing glows a Stop button; press Escape to stop.
• App data now lives in %LOCALAPPDATA%\SubZeroDev\HotCorners, outside the updater's install root; existing data is migrated once at first launch.
• Self-updating portable ZIP, per-user Setup and per-user MSI (Velopack). Packages are signed; binaries are unsigned.

Installing and updating: install this build once from the Releases page, then choose Preview in the tray's update-channel menu. Later previews, and the final 1.0.0, are offered from there. Stable-channel users are never offered a preview.
