v3.5.1

GeoLibre v3.5.1 adds loops and conditional branches to Model Builder, puts the real night sky behind the globe, and tidies the interface across menus, panels and English labels. Run a chain of tools once per feature or raster, send a model down one branch or another, and open a shared map with Measure tucked away in the units your audience uses. It brings together 23 pull requests from 5 contributors, 2 of them contributing for the first time. Thank you to everyone who helped!

Highlights

• Loops and branches in Model Builder: Iterate Features and Iterate Rasters run a body of tools once per item, and Collect Results gathers the outputs into one collection. Conditional Switch sends the run down one branch and skips the expensive tools on the other, and Branch Merge joins the branches again. Models with control flow still copy out as Python, and the AI Assistant can build them from a description. See Model Builder.
• The real night sky: the Atmospheric Effects plugin now draws about 5,000 real stars and the Milky Way, placed by the current sidereal time so they sit where they really are tonight, with optional constellation lines. Each layer can be toggled and is saved with the project. See Plugins.
• Shared maps that open quietly: a project can open Measure and Minimap collapsed, so viewers see only the button and their first clicks pan the map. Measure can start in feet, miles, acres or any other supported unit, from the project file or m.show_control(...) in Python. See Python.
• Plugins know the map's CRS: getMapCrs() and onMapCrsChange() tell a plugin which coordinate system the MapLibre map is drawn in, so it can request matching WMS layers. See Plugin API.
• A tidier interface: the arrow keys move between the top menus, English menu labels and headings use sentence case consistently, the Layers panel header and attribute table toolbar stay on screen at laptop widths, layer tooltips show the full name, and Identify pauses while you measure or draw.
• Fixes: plugin stylesheets apply again under the packaged desktop app's security policy, and on Android, projects you picked stay accessible after a restart.
