New

  • Thunderbolt support: connect with a Thunderbolt cable (Thunderbolt Bridge). Preferred over Ethernet, with faster sharpening.
  • Cursor states: text, link, resize, move, not-allowed and more now show on the display Mac.
  • Smoother cursor.
  • Quit Sharp from the menu bar.
  • The menu bar shows the active link: Thunderbolt, Ethernet, or a slow 100 Mb/s adapter.
  • Local Network permission is requested during setup.

Fixed

  • Connection dropping and reconnecting about once a minute.
  • Display Mac dimming while in use. It now sleeps when the sending Mac's screen sleeps.
  • Black screen at 3840×2160 and other large resolutions.
  • Switching Mirror/Extend or resolution no longer requires restarting both apps.
  • Stream frozen after the screen saver or a lock.
  • Endless reconnect loop when the display Mac is on Wi-Fi; Sharp now says why.
  • 100 Mb/s adapters no longer flooded.
  • Port conflicts handled.
  • Display Mac's own pointer hides while idle.
