v0.4.1

645464f

Aero 0.4.1 adds an optional import from Dia, a quick way to close a space’s open tabs, and a fix for a New Tab crash.

Import from Dia

Read your spaces and favorite tiles directly from the running Dia app after granting macOS Automation permission.
Preview the import before adding it to Aero. File import remains available for history and passwords.
The direct import reads current page titles and addresses. It cannot import folders, tabs inside folders, open tabs, space colors or shared profile assignments. Each imported space gets a separate Aero profile.

Tabs

Hover over the separator between favorites and open tabs to reveal a small Close All button. It closes the current space’s ordinary tabs while keeping favorites and other spaces intact.
Closed tabs remain available through Reopen Closed Tab.

Fixes

Fixed a crash when opening New Tab after closing tabs.

Aero v0.4.0

v0.4.0

88396f5

Aero 0.4.0 brings split views and terminal tabs, a media player in the sidebar, Peek, a rebuilt History page with swipe navigation, and one Aero app whose updates come from the channel you choose.

Split view and terminal

Put up to four tabs side by side in one sidebar entry. A split moves, pins, groups and changes space as one tab.
Drag the dividers to resize the panes, or double-click one to make them equal. Drag a pane's grip to move it beside another.
New Tab Beside (⌃=, or the page's hot corner) opens a New Tab pane next to the page.
Terminal tabs run your login shell, alone or in a split.

Tabs, folders and spaces

⌘-click and ⇧-click pick several tabs and folders. The context menu, the Tabs menu and dragging then act on all of them, across spaces too.
Folders open and close with an animated icon, can take one of forty symbols, and show their tabs when you rest the pointer on a closed one.
A favorite keeps its pinned page. Away from it, a return arrow takes you back, and Edit Pinned Page changes it.
The sidebar is tighter, and its footer shows the current space by name.

Browsing

Force-click a link to Peek at its page without leaving yours, then spread two fingers or press ⌘O to open it as a tab. Without Force Touch, use Open Link in Peek in the link's menu.
Swipe with two fingers to go back or forward. Hold at the edge to list the pages that way and pick one.
The History page is rebuilt: search, one card per day, and the keyboard to move, open and forget pages.
The control bar ranks every result by how well it matches and how often you visit, so a site you use every day comes first.
Downloads can be paused, resumed, renamed in place or moved to the Trash from a richer popover.

Media

A compact player above the sidebar's footer controls what a tab off screen is playing, with its artwork and progress.
Tabs using the camera or microphone are listed there with mute switches, and marked in the sidebar.
Control Center's Now Playing, its playback position and the media keys control what Aero plays.

Design

One Liquid Glass system across the chrome, tinted by the space. With Reduce Transparency, surfaces stay opaque.
Settings opens in its own window.

Updates

Aero is now one app for every release. Settings › Software Updates chooses where updates come from: Stable, Beta, which also brings every stable release, or Nightly. Your tabs, history and settings stay the same whichever you choose.
An update found on schedule waits in a small card at the bottom of the sidebar, instead of a window over the page. Once downloaded, it restarts Aero into the new version.

Current limits

Aero Beta and Aero Nightly are no longer updated, and their data does not move to Aero. Install Aero and choose the channel in Settings.
Moving to a steadier channel takes effect with that channel's next release newer than the one installed.
A site hidden from New Tab cannot be shown again yet.
