Mouse Pressure 0.2.0 Alpha

Mouse Pressure 0.2.0 Alpha

This release adds more Windows Ink mappings and pares back settings that no
longer need user adjustment.

Changes

• Maps either analog button to pressure, X-tilt, Y-tilt, or rotation.
• Keeps immediate stroke start and clean stroke endings enabled without
  exposing experimental switches.
• Hides Stroke analysis and Logs unless Debug mode is enabled. Debug mode is
  off by default.
• Shows the application version in the sidebar.
• Uses 325 as the default activation value for both buttons.
• Prevents pressure-generated pointer events from leaving sliders captured.
• Supports install-over-install upgrades and removes stale packaged runtime
  files without deleting user-owned files.

Installation

Download MousePressure-0.2.0-Setup.exe and run it. Existing installations can
be upgraded directly. Settings under ~/.mouse-pressure remain in place.

The app is not Authenticode-signed, so Microsoft Defender SmartScreen may show
a warning. The installer does not install a kernel driver or require changes
to Secure Boot or driver-signature enforcement.

The installer SHA-256 is provided as a separate download.

Tested compatibility

• Windows 10 x64 build 19045
• Compatible Logitech analog-button hardware over wired USB and Lightspeed
• Krita using Windows 8+ Pointer Input, Photoshop, and Microsoft Paint

Known limitations

• Windows 11 is expected to work but has not been verified on physical Windows
  11 hardware.
• The first stroke after pressing Start can occasionally register as a dot.
• Pen-property support varies between applications and brush presets.

Use Ctrl+F12 to Start and Ctrl+Shift+F12 to Force Stop.

Mouse Pressure 0.1.1 Alpha

Mouse Pressure 0.1.1 Alpha

This patch release focuses on safer startup, shutdown, and temporary mouse
settings. It also removes the unused local WebSocket interface.

Changes

• Restores DPI, haptics, and onboard-profile mode from one captured device
  snapshot after Stop, startup failure, or crash recovery.
• Arms native mouse-button suppression only after the first pressure sample is
  ready.
• Makes native relay startup and shutdown idempotent.
• Uses one native relay binding for DLL discovery, ABI validation, input
  capture, and pen injection.
• Removes the unused WebSocket server, profile interface, and related
  dependencies.
• Adds Ruff checks and expands runtime, native relay, device restoration, and
  settings tests.

Installation

Download MousePressure-0.1.1-Setup.exe and run it. The app is not
