Sidebar

  • New alternative sidebar UI (pictured)
  • Lookup words in Wikipedia and offline dictionaries (#5)
  • Translate passages with Google Translate
  • Configure default action when words are selected (#98)
  • Experimental popup footnote support
  • Ability to find within only the current chapter
  • Fixed CPU spikes when left open (#76)
  • Fixed highlights not rendering at the correct positions (#96)

Technical changes:

  • Foliate no longer depends on libsoup.
  • New optional dependency: dictd (for offline dictionary support)
  • The minimum GJS version has been lowered to 1.52, which means that Foliate can now run on systems based on Ubuntu 18.04 or later.
  • The permission --talk-name=org.freedesktop.Flatpak is now required for Flatpak. It's only used for spawning the dict process. This can be overridden, if dictd support is not needed.
  • A .deb package is provided with this release.
