A new opacity slider lets you make WhatCable see-through

Settings has a new Opacity slider. Drag it down and WhatCable's windows go
translucent, from the menu bar popover to the Pro screens, so you can see what's
behind them. Leave it at 100% and nothing changes.

New

  • Opacity slider. Settings > Display now has an Opacity control (50% to
    100%). It dims every WhatCable surface together: the menu bar popover, the
    separate Pro windows, the welcome and licence screens, and the pop-up dialogs.

Improved

  • The updater checks for the newest version right before it installs. When
    you hit install, WhatCable re-checks for the latest release first, and the
    update panel refreshes itself when you open it, so you always get the current
    version. Thanks to the report behind this one.
  • Contributing diagnostic data no longer pops up a "removable disk" warning.
    The Test Kit used to nudge macOS into showing its USB-storage prompt while it
    ran. It now skips storage devices, so the run stays quiet.

Under the hood

  • Italian and Traditional Chinese wording refinements.
  • More cables added to the built-in cable database.
