ChromIQ v3.13.12-beta.3
Pre-release
A small polish beta on top of beta.2 — the same opt-in chart-reading engine
(issue #126), plus interface tidying from Sebastian's and Knut's feedback.
With the engine off, nothing about your results changes.
Clip border ↔ page margins
- When Use instrument margins is on (so the four page margins are locked
to your instrument's limits), the Left / Right margin box now lights up
red whenever the clip-border width and that side's margin disagree — on
whichever side the clip border is set to. Before, the clip-border-width box
itself was outlined, which read as if that field were at fault. The margin
box is the one affected, so that's the one that's flagged now; hovering the
clip-border-width field explains, in plain language, which value wins and
why.
Load buttons are now matching icons
The Load buttons on the Measure and Build Profile tabs are now small
icon-only glyphs in each tab's accent colour, matching the Create Chart and
Print tabs (their meaning is in the section heading and a friendly tooltip):
- Measure → Load chart (.ti2): a strip of patches with a scan arrow —
"read this chart". - Build Profile → Load measurement data (.ti3 / .txt): a patch grid with
a checkmark — "a measured chart". - Create Chart → Load profile: two stacked pages carrying a small patch
grid — "reopen a project you started earlier".
On the Create Chart tab the Reveal-folder button now sits with the other
icon buttons at the top-right of the panel, instead of down by Generate.
Installation: Open the DMG, drag ChromIQ to Applications, eject, then launch.
ChromIQ is ad-hoc signed (not notarized). On macOS Sonoma+ the right-click → Open trick often fails with "Apple cannot check it for malicious software." If that happens, remove the quarantine flag in Terminal:
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/ChromIQ.app
Then double-click as normal.
Requires macOS 13+ (Ventura) and ArgyllCMS 3.5.0 at /Applications/Argyll/bin.
☕ ChromIQ is free and always will be — if it saves you time or ink, a coffee is a kind way to say thanks. Completely optional, and the app stays fully featured either way.
