What's New in v1.0.33

Performance and Battery

  • Lid angle sampling moved off the main thread onto a dedicated queue, so the main thread only runs easing instead of reading hardware every tick.
  • An alpha-beta-gamma predictor leads the measured angle by 60ms, so the fold tracks the panel instead of trailing behind it.
  • The Metal layer parks at a true 0fps when the lid is closed, and cadence resumes only while folding.
  • Blur quality scales with fold velocity: 12 taps near open, 20 mid-fold, 32 on a deep or fast close.
  • Screen capture keeps a warm stream with a cached filter, uploads textures off the main thread, and no longer probes screen recording permission on every frame.
  • Hiding the overlay now removes the window from the compositor instead of leaving a transparent topmost window running forever.

Fixes

  • Fold blur no longer pixelates on-screen text. Capture is back to native Retina resolution, which the blur kernel depends on.
  • Opening is a short fade-only handoff rather than 3D unfold geometry, since the real desktop is already behind it.
  • Sleep, wake, lid-close and slider exit all route through one hide path.

Interface

  • The menu bar menu is reduced to Control Panel & Settings and Quit. Every other action already lives in the control panel.
  • The fold animation preview is gone from both the menu and the control panel.
  • New Hide Menu Bar Icon option. Reopen macTilt from Applications to bring it back.
