Simplexity AI v5.1.1
SimplexityAI v5.1.1
Two fixes from reported issues, shortly after 5.1.0.
Fixed
The cursor now starts in the question box
Reported by @CerebralFreeze in #46. Opening the app put keyboard focus on the sidebar links rather than the page, and there was no way to Tab across to the question box — awkward if you toggle the window with a hotkey and expect to just start typing.
Every focus call in the app targeted the sidebar; nothing ever focused the page. The caret now lands in the composer when the app launches, when the window is shown from the tray or a hotkey, and when you switch tabs.
Faster AppImage startup on older machines
Reported by @dentex in #40. The AppImage was slow to appear and then froze for a few seconds before becoming responsive.
An AppImage isn't installed — it mounts a compressed filesystem and decompresses as it runs, on every launch. The build was compressing it with xz, which is several times slower to decompress than the alternative, so older CPUs paid that cost at every start. Linux builds now use standard compression.
The AppImage and .deb are somewhat larger as a result. macOS and Windows downloads are unchanged.
Known limitations
- macOS and Windows builds are not code-signed. Gatekeeper and SmartScreen will warn on first launch; on macOS, right-click the app and choose Open the first time.
Thanks
- @CerebralFreeze — reported the focus behaviour (#46)
- @dentex — reported the slow AppImage startup (#40), with the system details that made the cause findable
