RetroInk 0.5.8

Rocker switches and System 6 dialogs

Added

• Move Selected in the web file manager: tick several items, press Move Selected, and choose the destination once.

Changed

• On/off settings are a two-position O | I rocker, so the state reads the same on a highlighted row.
• Dialogs look like System 6 alerts, with a striped title bar, a shadow and boxed choices.
• Home with no books centres the icon and message on the card.
• The Library's Book Menu no longer shows "Selected" beside Open Book.

RetroInk 0.5.7

Fuller Today and Book Status sleep screens

Changed

• The Today sleep screen adds a Now Reading card under the week, with the cover, title and progress of the book you have open.
• The Book Status sleep screen shows the cover beside the title, with reading time, pages turned, sessions, average session, start date and time left (or finished date) spread down the page. Rows only appear when there is data.
• The Reading Desk screens inside the reader are unchanged.

RetroInk 0.5.6

Sleep screen picker

Added

• Settings > Display > Sleep Screen > Wallpaper now opens a picker with a preview of each sleep screen, drawn with your own book, stats, calendar and date. Left and Right browse, Select uses the one on show, Back leaves it unchanged. Moon and Earth show "Drawing..." for a moment first.

Changed

• Sleep screens are in a new order: the originals, then RetroInk's own, then the desk accessories (Moon Phase, Earth, Desk Calendar, Calendar Day).

RetroInk 0.5.5

Puzzle fix and clearer on/off marks

Fixed

• The Puzzle could not be solved. Shuffles landed on arrangements that can never be reached, so only the reversed order (15, 14, 13...) could be finished. Every shuffle is now solvable, and an old unsolvable game is replaced with a fresh one.

Changed

• On/off settings now show a boxed I (on) or O (off) in the System 6 theme. The old sliding switch looked already switched on when its row was selected.

RetroInk 0.5.4

Calendar Sync

Added

• Your Google, Apple or Outlook calendar in the Desk Calendar. Paste its iCal link on the File Transfer web page (Settings > Desk Calendar), then use Desk Calendar > Options > Sync Calendar.
• Event squares on busy days, a full-screen Day View with full titles and lengths, and Left/Right now step one day (side buttons change the month).
• New Calendar Day sleep screen: finished events struck through, the current one marked, and when it was updated.
• Repeating, all-day and overnight events are handled. Everything is saved on the SD card.

RetroInk 0.5.3

Fixes updating over Wi-Fi

Fixed

• Check for Updates could fail with "Update failed" partway through the download on the X3 (an SD card write failed). The update now resumes from where it stopped, up to three tries, and the finished file is still checksum-verified before install.

If you are on 0.5.1 or 0.5.2 and it fails, install this .bin once from the SD card (Settings > System > SD Card Firmware Update). Updates from 0.5.3 on use the fix.

RetroInk 0.5.2

Marble Maze is now X3 only and tilt only

Added

• Marble Maze Options (far-right button): Recalibrate (lay the reader flat on a table, then Calibrate; Auto levels at the start of each maze), Invert Left/Right, Invert Forward/Back. All remembered.

Changed

• Marble Maze only appears on readers with a motion sensor (the X3), and the buttons no longer tilt the board

Removed

• The hold-Select direction setup from 0.5.1

RetroInk 0.5.1

• Desktop Pattern (Settings > Display): 16 classic Mac patterns
• From CrossInk: keypad Go to %, rename in File Browser, custom boot screens, Quick Lock, keyboard layouts, split margins, many EPUB and image fixes

Changed

• X3 status bar text defaults to Medium
• Built-in reader fonts no longer include emoji (SD-card fonts still do)
