@TrentSterling TrentSterling released this 25 Sep 04:31

PowerShellManager 0.4.1 gives the layout tools a new workspace and fixes the individual-window Pin bug.

  • Drag the six-dot handles to choose terminal order. Apply and the preview use that order; dragging switches off activity ranking.
  • Pin one window to a physical grid slot. Collisions and disabled destinations fall back to the queue with a warning.
  • Current settings for Ctrl+Alt+G and tray actions, plus saved-grid masks and refreshed menus.
  • ColorMagic Theme Studio: gradient pips, frost, intensity, contrast, typography, scale and Trontop-compatible JSON.
  • Aligned zebra rows, a 280 x 300 minimum window and a theme-aware four-square logo. Trent's portrait remains in About.
  • Static MSVC runtime; no separate Visual C++ redistributable required.
  • Bounded malformed layouts, atomic settings writes and a hidden-window eframe repaint fix.

Download the ZIP, extract it and run powershellmanager.exe normally. Quit an older PSM from its tray menu first. --preview is read-only and deliberately disables Apply.

The build is unsigned. This is a development release tested on Windows 11 x64. Applications may impose minimum sizes or require different permissions. Minimized windows remain minimized. Mixed-DPI and broader hardware acceptance remain open.

Validation: 31 ordinary tests, two explicit native tests using only owned hidden windows, reviewed offscreen captures, clippy with warnings denied, formatting and an optimized release build. See RELEASE_AUDIT.md in the ZIP for scope and limitations.
