Vanta Launcher v1.4

Vanta Launcher v1.4 Release! 🚀

This update focuses on optimizing vertical layout spacing, eliminating UI shifts during launch operations, and automating Fabric dependency resolutions.

Features & Improvements

• Zero Layout-Shift Launch Sequence:
  Replaced the dynamic visibility toggles for the progress bar with a dedicated QStackedWidget container. The launcher now swaps between the "Play" button and the download/launch progress bar without shifting surrounding UI elements or altering the card structure.

• Ultra-Compact Profile Card:
  Reduced the window dimensions (height adjusted to 270px) and shortened the card frame (height adjusted to 220px). This eliminates unneeded negative vertical space, resulting in a cleaner, tighter layout.

• Programmatic Menu Icon:
  Replaced the previous gear settings icon with a programmatically drawn, 3-bar hamburger menu. This prevents issues with cross-platform emoji rendering and system font inconsistencies while retaining the launcher's custom styling.

• Smart Fabric Detection:
  The launcher now automatically triggers the Fabric Loader installation sequence if custom mods are detected in the active profile's mods folder, bypassing the need to manually toggle Performance Mode.

• Automated Fabric API Dependency Injector:
  When searching and installing a mod through the Modrinth integration, the installer will automatically scan, resolve, and download the correct matching version of fabric-api if it is missing from the directory.

• Polished Height Consistency:
  Locked UI elements—including text fields, comboboxes, and buttons—to matching fixed heights (32px / 36px) and explicit paddings to maintain design uniformity.
