1.4.0

System	File
Windows 10/11	Valendo-1.4.0-setup.exe
macOS, Apple Silicon	Valendo-1.4.0-arm64.dmg

Windows: run the installer. SmartScreen warns about an unrecognised publisher — More info → Run anyway.

macOS: drag to Applications, then run this once, before the first launch and again for every version you download:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Valendo.app

Without it macOS says the app is damaged. It is not — that is the message for a downloaded app it cannot verify with Apple, because this one is not notarised.

New

• A fourth kind of card: the screen. A card the app draws itself — a colour, or two colours with an angle and a fade distance, or one of six slow animated backgrounds: drift, breathe, sweep, waves, bars, dust. Put a message over it if you want one, with its own size, colour, alignment and placement. The point is not the look, it is what it is made of: an image card points at a file, a screen card is a handful of numbers. It weighs nothing inside the .valendo, has no link that can break, needs no lighter copy prepared for the network, and the same numbers draw it at 176 pixels on the drawer tile and at full resolution on the glass. A standby screen without opening an image editor.
• Speed and intensity, for all six effects at once. Speed scales each effect's own pace rather than forcing one duration on all of them — they were not tuned to the same number, and a single figure would leave Drift frantic and Bars crawling. Intensity decides how much the movement shows over the base colour.
• Duplicate a tab, from the right button. Right-click a tab for duplicate, rename and close. The copy carries the appearance and the markers, and opens with its name selected, because naming it is always the next thing you do. It is a fresh script: it has no export path of its own, so Ctrl+S on the copy asks where to write instead of quietly overwriting the file the original came from. Ctrl+D does the same to the active tab.
• Drag tabs to reorder. The gap opens where the tab will land while you are still holding it, so the drop is never a surprise. Reordering never changes which tab is on air.
• Settings works in Focus mode. F7 set the state but the panel was never drawn there, so the key did nothing you could see. Settings is a panel like Assets and Cards, not a writing surface — Focus has no reason to hide it.

Fixed

• The editor jumped to the top when you marked a chapter or a direction. Clicking ## or [ ] in the toolbar sent the view back to the first line, every time; typing the marks by hand did not. Both buttons rewrite the whole text in one step — which is what makes them a single undo — and replacing a textarea's value resets its scroll. The scroll is now put back where it was, in the text and in the highlight layer.
• Tabs were named in Portuguese, in every language. Aba 1, Aba 2 — for a German, Spanish, French, Italian or English operator, on the tab bar, all session. The name was written by hand in the code instead of coming from the dictionary.
• The Go To tooltip was stuck in English. Go To was written straight into the markup and never passed through the dictionary, so it stayed in English in the other five languages while the quick help beside it was already translated.
• The interface scale is checked, not only set at birth. The window took its zoom from a single value at construction and nothing confirmed it afterwards.

Changed

• The quick help speaks all six languages. All 156 entries — the box in the left column and the tooltip of every control, which come from the same entry — were only in English, falling back silently for everyone else.
• Tooltips are the name of the button and its key, nothing more. "Save the whole project — tabs, appearance, markers and pace" is now "Save project · Ctrl+S": the long form already lives in the quick help, where it fits and does not make you wait a second hovering. Every key comes from the key map in force, so remapping is reflected instead of the tooltip promising the factory default forever. Two buttons that had no tooltip at all got one — the save of the PROJECT group, which was indistinguishable from the save of SCRIPT beside it, and Broadcast.
• Arrow shortcuts are drawn as arrows. Step back · ArrowUp was the name the browser gives the key, not what is printed on it.
• A rule between the PROJECT and SCRIPT groups, and the screen card's Frequency is called Speed.
• The drawer leads with what needs no file: Add message, Add screen, Add image, Add video.
• Every screenshot in the README, the site and the wiki was retaken against this version, with invented content — no client material, and no stale interface. Four of them were also lying about what they showed: two captured a single item where the caption described a whole row.
