PhraseLens v0.5.2 — OCR that reads Chinese and Japanese
Fixed
- Screenshot OCR reads Chinese and Japanese again. The recognizer was handed a
fixed language list with English at its head. Vision does not try those languages in
turn — it picks one model from the head of the list — so a Latin language in first
place meant CJK text was dropped outright: a screenshot of Chinese or Japanese came
back empty as "no text was found", and one that mixed scripts kept the English and
turned the rest into glyph soup. The script is now detected from the screenshot
itself, and a shot carrying Japanese, both Chinese scripts and English at once reads
correctly. - A capture could be read before it had finished being written.
screencapturehands
the interactive selection to a helper and can exit before that helper has flushed the
PNG, so the single check for the finished file sometimes ran first and the capture was
reported as cancelled. It now waits for the file to settle. - A click that never became a drag no longer raises an error. The empty capture it
writes used to travel all the way to a failed recognition; it is treated as a
cancelled selection now, the same as pressing Escape.
The app is signed but not notarized, so the first launch after downloading needs a right-click → Open.
