v0.2.9

rudbman 0.2.9 — flush rounded window frames and shared UI updates.

• Linux custom windows have flush rounded frames. Exposed corners use a 10px radius with darker shadows and a one-pixel outline. Content and dialog backdrops are clipped at the corners without extra inner padding, while tiled edges remain square and borderless.
• Windows uses the OS corner policy. The forced small-corner preference has been removed.
• The shared widget library is updated to rugpui 0.1.5. All shared UI dependencies are pinned to its published release commit.
• Workspace and query internals are organized into focused modules. Related tests follow the same structure.

What's Changed

• Release rudbman 0.2.9 with rugpui 0.1.5 by @xcomart in #47

v0.2.8

rudbman 0.2.8 — rounded custom windows and stronger Linux shadows.

• Linux custom windows have subtly rounded corners. A shared 6px frame keeps title-bar controls and dialog backdrops inside the rounded outline, while tiled edges remain square.
• Linux window shadows are wider and darker. The shadow area grows from 12px to 24px, with a lighter shadow for inactive windows.
• Windows 11 custom title bars request small native rounded corners. Switching back to the system title bar restores the system corner policy.
• The title-bar application icon preserves its original colors.
• The shared widget library is updated to rugpui 0.1.4.
• Build dependencies support the current Rust compiler. The async-trait patch update resolves a Rust 1.99 compatibility warning.

What's Changed

• Release rudbman 0.2.8 with rugpui 0.1.4 by @xcomart in #46

Full Changelog: v0.2.7...v0.2.8

v0.2.7

rudbman 0.2.7 — reliable dialog navigation and text selection.

• Tab and Shift+Tab stay within the active dialog. Disabled controls are skipped, and overlapping dialogs keep keyboard navigation in the topmost dialog.
• Text selection continues beyond control and window boundaries. Text fields and code editors keep following the drag until the mouse button is released.
• Custom title bars reflect window focus across desktop platforms. The shared focus styling now applies on Linux, Windows, and macOS.
• The shared widget library is updated to rugpui 0.1.3.

What's Changed

• Release rudbman 0.2.7 with rugpui 0.1.3 by @xcomart in #45

Full Changelog: v0.2.6...v0.2.7

v0.2.6

rudbman 0.2.6 — clearer focus cues in Linux custom title bars.

• The title bar reflects window focus. The app name and icon, caption controls, and window shadow now change as the window becomes active or inactive. Inactive windows use muted colors and a softer shadow.

The Windows installer keeps its existing application identity and registry entry, so installations of 0.2.5 can be upgraded in place.

What's Changed

• Pin the 0.2.3 winget manifest to the published installer by @xcomart in #39
• Strip the launcher binaries from the bundled runtime by @xcomart in #40
• Take rugpui de4900f by @xcomart in #41

Full Changelog: v0.2.3...v0.2.6

v0.2.5

rudbman 0.2.5 — stronger write protection, and safer handling of failed saves and rollbacks.

• A read-shaped opening no longer hides a write from the safety checks.
  The query pane now looks inside CTEs and at the statement they lead into,
  checks the target of EXPLAIN, and recognises SELECT INTO. A modifying CTE
  or an EXPLAIN ANALYZE UPDATE goes through write confirmation and the
  read-only gate; syntax the classifier cannot place is treated
  conservatively. Database permissions remain the final protection, since a
  SELECT can still call a function with side effects.

• A failed rollback leaves the connection unavailable until reconnection.
  Restoring auto-commit after a rollback failure could commit an uncertain
  transaction. That restoration now stops, further commands are refused,
  and the error asks you to reconnect and inspect the result. Open cursors
  can still be closed. Transfers follow the same rule for a failed rollback
  of their unfinished batch.

• Failed settings and theme saves keep the previous file. Each save
  writes and syncs a separate temporary sibling before replacement, and a
  failure removes only that temporary file. The theme-store fix comes from
  the shared rugpui update.

The Windows installer keeps its existing application identity and registry
entry, so installations of 0.2.4 can be upgraded in place.

What's Changed

• Release rudbman 0.2.5 with stronger write protection by @xcomart in #43

v0.2.4

rudbman 0.2.4 — two Windows packaging fixes, and the dividers catch up with the splits.

• rudbman.exe starts on a Windows machine that has nothing else installed.
  The release build linked the Visual C++ runtime (VCRUNTIME140.dll)
  dynamically, and neither the installer nor the zip carried it, so on a bare
  machine — the winget validation VM among them — the program died on launch
  with STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND (0xC0000135). The copy inside the bundled Java
  runtime did not help, since runtime\bin is not on the executable's DLL
  search path. The Windows build now links the runtime statically, and the
  winget manifest declares Microsoft.VCRedist.2015+.x64 as a dependency so
  winget installs it first either way. A machine that already had the runtime
  never noticed.

• The bundled Java runtime no longer carries java, keytool and the other
  launchers. rudbman loads the JVM in-process through its shared library and
  never runs them, and winget's validation launches every installed executable
  with no arguments, where java.exe exits 1 and earned the package an error
  label. jlink now strips them; the download is smaller for it, and nothing
  the program does has changed.

• The sidebar and query dividers light up under the pointer, the way a
  split's does. Both are now dragged by the same grab band the query splits
  use — an accent bar that fades in while the pointer is on it or holding it —
  so every seam in the window answers the pointer the same way. The band comes
  from rugpui, which pulled the splitter's
  grab band out into a widget a panel edge can share; the same update runs a
  split's accent bar the whole length of its seam instead of stopping 6 px
  short at each end, and draws the menu button's hamburger as an icon.

The Windows installer's identity, its registry entry and the winget manifests
are as before, so winget upgrade and the built-in updater both pick this
release up from 0.2.3.

What's Changed

• Pin the 0.2.3 winget manifest to the published installer by @xcomart in #39
• Strip the launcher binaries from the bundled runtime by @xcomart in #40
• Take rugpui de4900f by @xcomart in #41
• Release 0.2.4 by @xcomart in #42

Full Changelog: v0.2.3...v0.2.4

v0.2.3

rudbman 0.2.3 — a small feature release.

• Long lines wrap in the query editor, if you ask them to. Machine-written
  SQL — a generated INSERT, a WHERE of forty predicates — used to run off
  the right edge, and reading one statement meant dragging the horizontal
  scrollbar back and forth across it. The switch sits in Settings under
  Appearance, below the editor font size.

  It is off by default, so an existing settings file changes nothing. Line
  numbers stay what they were either way: a wrapped line is still one line,
  numbered once on its first row, so a position a driver reports still counts
  down the gutter as before.

  Turning it on or off reaches every query tab at once — every connection, not
  only the one on screen — so a tab sitting behind another cannot keep wrapping
  after the switch has been turned off. It is the one appearance control the
  dialog does not preview live: the editors are told on save, so a preview
  would show a change Cancel could not take back. The wrapping itself comes
  from rugpui, so the other apps built on
  it gain the same editor.

Nothing else changes. The Windows installer's identity, its registry entry and
the winget manifests are as before, so winget upgrade and the built-in updater
both pick this release up from 0.2.2.

What's Changed

• Pin the 0.2.2 winget manifest to the published installer by @xcomart in #36
• Let the query editor wrap long lines from Settings by @xcomart in #37
• Release 0.2.3 by @xcomart in #38

Full Changelog: v0.2.2...v0.2.3

v0.2.2

rudbman 0.2.2 — a polish release.

• Every disclosure mark is drawn rather than typed. The explorer tree's
  arrows, a form section's twisty and every dropdown's chevron used to be text
  glyphs, which fill only a fraction of the box they are given and so always
  came out smaller and lighter than the size asked for. They are vector icons
  now, at the size they are set — one mark across trees, sections, selects and
  the grid's choice editor, all pointing the same way for the same reason.

• The splitter shows where it is. Drag a pane divider and the seam marks
  itself with a bar that fades in under the pointer and stays up for the whole
  of the drag, so a split that is being resized looks like one. Where a pane has
  no neighbour there is no divider to find, as before.

• The SSH tunnel section no longer answers two questions with one press.
  Its checkbox used to be both the arming switch and the thing you clicked to
  unfold the block. The section now folds from its own disclosure and the
  checkbox sits beside it as a trailing control with a tab stop of its own, so
  arming a tunnel and reading its settings are separate gestures.

• A switch slides between its two ends instead of snapping, which makes it
  easier to see which way it just went.

• Clearing a cell is one gesture everywhere. The grid's clearing keystroke
  now stages a null the way its own "set null" command does, in both places a
  grid is shown.

The Windows installer's identity, its registry entry and the winget manifests
are as before, so winget upgrade and the built-in updater both pick this
release up from 0.2.1.

What's Changed

• chore(winget): pin the 0.2.1 installer hash and release date by @xcomart in #33
• Take the splitter, the fold-away section and the chevron from rugpui by @xcomart in #34
• Release 0.2.2 on rugpui ee19d47 by @xcomart in #35

Full Changelog: v0.2.1...v0.2.2

v0.2.1

rudbman 0.2.1 — a fix release.

• Blur behind the window on macOS 26. With Blur the desktop behind the
  window on, Tahoe showed a see-through window over a sharp desktop: Liquid
  Glass rebuilt the layer tree under the effect view gpui blurs with, and the
  window went translucent without ever being blurred. On macOS 26 and later
  the blur is now asked of the WindowServer directly, the way the previous
  generation of the framework did it; earlier releases of macOS are unchanged.
  The fix lives in rugpui, so rudbgen and
  rulogman pick it up in the same breath.

Nothing else changes. The Windows installer's identity, its registry entry and
the winget manifests are as before, so winget upgrade and the built-in updater
both pick this release up from 0.2.0.

What's Changed

• Pin the 0.2.0 installer hash and release date by @xcomart in #30
• build: bump rugpui to d4f59e9 so macOS 26 blurs behind the window by @xcomart in #31
• chore(release): bump the version to 0.2.1 by @xcomart in #32

Full Changelog: v0.2.0...v0.2.1

v0.2.0

rudbman 0.2.0 — the same workbench on a newer, shared foundation.

• Built on Zed's current gpui. rudbman now builds against a pinned revision
  of Zed's monorepo instead of the year-old crates.io release, which brings the
  wgpu renderer on Linux and lets several local patches go. What you notice:
  paste reads the clipboard asynchronously, so a slow clipboard owner on
  Wayland no longer stalls the window; the title bar places its buttons where
  your desktop puts them (GNOME/KDE, left or right, in order) and follows a
  change; a sideways wheel over the result grid moves the columns and nothing
  else, and over every vertical-only surface — the tree, dialog lists,
  dropdowns — it no longer scrolls up and down; KWin's blur-behind and X11
  client-side decorations composite correctly.
• A quoted identifier no longer splits the statement under the caret. A
  "name" or `name` holding a ; is opaque to the statement splitter and
  the bracket matcher, the way a string already was, while still painting as an
  identifier.
• Shared foundation. The widget kit, the result grid, the SQL editor, the
  window that draws its own title bar, the settings and theme editors and the
  self-updater are now rugpui, the library
  rudbman, rudbgen and rulogman all draw with — a fix made once lands in each
  of them. With it comes the updater's corrected restart: after an in-place
  update, macOS reopens the application bundle and Linux launches the newly
  installed binary rather than the copy just renamed aside.

The Windows installer's identity, its registry entry and the winget manifests
are unchanged, so winget upgrade and the built-in updater both pick this
release up from 0.1.9.

What's Changed

• fix(ui): keep a sideways wheel off the vertical axis by @xcomart in #24
• Build on Zed's upstream gpui and adopt its new features by @xcomart in #25
• Take the widget kit, the grid and the editor from ruui by @xcomart in #26
• Take the window shell, the updater and the theme editor from ruui-shell by @xcomart in #27
• Follow the ruui → rugpui rename by @xcomart in #28
• Release 0.2.0 by @xcomart in #29
