Ventus v1.0.29 - Tab Shortcuts, Workspace Polish, and Privacy Fixes
What's new
This release adds normal browser-style tab cycling and includes the latest workspace, downloads, and privacy fixes.
Changes
Tab switching shortcuts
- Added Ctrl+Tab to move to the next tab.
- Added Ctrl+Shift+Tab to move to the previous tab.
- The shortcut works when the page is focused, when the chrome UI is focused, and through the native WebView2 shortcut path.
- Tab cycling follows the active workspace tab order, so it stays consistent with the sidebar.
Workspace improvements
- Added a compact sidebar workspace button so workspaces are still reachable when the sidebar is collapsed.
- Added a workspace switcher modal with workspace names, avatars, tab counts, and active workspace state.
- Right-clicking a workspace in the switcher now opens actions for editing or deleting it.
Downloads popover cleanup
- Redesigned the downloads popover to be smaller and cleaner.
- Reduced extra color and visual noise.
- Kept core actions available, including open file, show in folder, pause, resume, cancel, and remove.
Privacy and browser detection fix
- Fixed strict permission API stubs so feature detectors can still see the real native browser surface.
- This avoids sites reading blocked APIs as fake JavaScript functions and incorrectly thinking Ventus is spoofing its Chromium version.
- Strict permission blocking behavior is still kept.
Version and installer
- Updated Ventus release surfaces to 1.0.29.
- Rebuilt the Windows release binary.
- Rebuilt the Windows installer.
