Bendd v0.3.0

Bug-fix release. Still ad-hoc signed, not notarized by Apple, see the README for the one-time right-click-Open step (or xattr -cr).

Fixed:

• The bent screen now has rounded corners matching a real display's bezel, instead of a sharp rectangle.
• Fixed a thin bright fringe along the tilted edges of the bend.
• The left/right/bottom edges now fade toward black smoothly near the boundary, matching the top edge, instead of stopping sharp.

Install:

1. Download Bendd-0.3.0.dmg below.
2. Drag Bendd to Applications.
3. Right-click Bendd in Applications and choose Open (not double-click), then confirm. Only needed the first time.
4. Grant Screen Recording access when prompted.

If it still refuses to open: xattr -cr /Applications/Bendd.app in Terminal.

Bendd v0.2.0

Bug-fix release. Still ad-hoc signed, not notarized by Apple, see the README for the one-time right-click-Open step (or xattr -cr).

Fixed:

• The bend no longer shows a small centered box or a recursive "hall of mirrors" effect; it fills the full screen correctly.
• Corrected the tilt direction: the far edge of the screen now recedes away as the lid closes, instead of appearing to grow closer.
• The area the tilted screen recedes into is now a solid black backdrop instead of revealing the raw desktop underneath.

Install:

1. Download Bendd-0.2.0.dmg below.
2. Drag Bendd to Applications.
3. Right-click Bendd in Applications and choose Open (not double-click), then confirm. Only needed the first time.
4. Grant Screen Recording access when prompted.

If it still refuses to open: xattr -cr /Applications/Bendd.app in Terminal.
