This release brings some bug fixes and many new features primarily related to the settings panel and adjustments it offers. Flexibility is now increased by separately managing the caret reporting in text editables and ordinary navigation options. There are 2 more gestures, settings panel is expanded and redesigned and bug regarding multiple usage of Apply button is fixed. New features include auto-start for mouse monitoring, toggling caret location reporting, choosing a caret reporting mode, reporting caret movements while typing option and choosing a different tone duration for caret location reports. New gestures are Ctrl+Windows+NumpadDelete which toggles the caret location reporting on or off and Ctrl+Alt+Windows+NumpadDelete that allows you to cycle through caret reporting modes which are: Lines, Columns, Lines & Columns and None. These modes enable you to choose text navigation direction for which caret location is reported. There are also some minor micro-optimizations and enhanced edit fields detection. The settings panel offers real-time adjustments for most important options now and it is synchronized with gestures so that it immediately reflects changes made using them in the GUI. This is done to ease adjustment process by not needing to close the settings panel or click Apply button each time before experiencing the changes. The add-on is kept as backward compatible as possible so that old users won't experience any differences unless changing their settings by themselves. This is the last minor 24.x release and new exciting features are planned in new 25.x series.
