v1.4.0 - Readable UI and smooth tray text

What's New in v1.4.0

• Readable light theme:
  • The page is a warm stone instead of pure white, and labels are dark enough to read.
  • Body text is larger, and the CoolMode note wraps instead of running off the edge.
• Google Sans across the dashboard, dialogs, tray menu, and tray temperature.
• Sharper text: composited ClearType so glyphs stay crisp on the buffered window.
• Smoother navigation: the sidebar highlight eases between pages, hovers fade in immediately, and each section slides into place.
• Smooth tray temperature: the two-digit icon is drawn antialiased at high resolution and scaled down, instead of jagged single-bit pixels.

Downloads

• YellySetup.exe — per-user installer (no administrator prompt).
• Yelly.exe — portable build. Run it from any folder.
