main.
- Date chips draw as one capsule again. A token whose
@is dimmer than its date could reach the layout manager as two runs, each drawing its own capsule, overlapping. - The Today view is now Timelapse, in the sidebar, the View menu, the command bar, the shortcut sheet and here.
- ⌘1, ⌘2 and ⌘3 open the three rows at the top of the sidebar in order: All Documents, Timelapse, New Document. ⌘P, ⌘D and ⌘N still work. The rows are reordered to match and show the numbers.
- Gallery cards animate their own entrance, so a mosaic removed mid-cascade can no longer leave a ghost behind.
- Timelapse: every day is the same size whatever it holds, and each fades out at its lower edge before it reaches the day in front, so the cards never touch or overlap. Pressing ⌘1 then ⌘2 no longer leaves both sidebar rows lit.
- The self-photographing mode (used to check layout without anyone at the Mac) now asks the window server for the app’s own window only, so macOS no longer treats each picture as screen recording and says so; the store pictures keep the fuller composite by request.
- Float on top. ⌘. (View → Float on Top) keeps the window over other apps’ windows and on screen across Stage Manager sets; a pin in the footer shows while it floats. Remembered between launches.
- This documentation site, at docs.glassine.ink, and the front door at glassine.ink.
- Motion. Checking a task sweeps the strike across the words over half a second while they fade to the muted colour, with a pulse on the box; the sink a moment later fades out, moves and fades back in; unchecking brightens the words back. Review does the same in CSS. And twenty smaller things: focus mode crossfades between paragraphs, settles when turned on and lifts gradually; date capsules and pasted links pulse; sidebar rows slide; stars spring; every count ticks; the search field brightens with focus; a folder’s count and its + trade places on hover; the Saved mark springs in; cards cascade in and lift on hover; Review scales in; the command bar highlight glides; Settings tabs crossfade. All of it steps aside under Reduce Motion. See small delights.
- New installs start in Helvetica Neue.
- Focus mode keeps Markdown styling in the dimmed text — darker and less saturated rather than flattened to grey.
- Leaving a document shrinks the page back into its card, the reverse of the way it opened.
- Two more built-in themes, Dusk and Lavender; Dusk is the new default and the dark half of the system pair.
- The sidebar’s Documents tree starts collapsed, with a count; All Documents is the better way to browse.
- The Shelf. Shelve a document or folder (right-click, ⌘⇧⌫, or ⌘K) and it leaves Recents, Starred, the tree and All Documents for a collapsed Shelf section at the bottom of the sidebar, still searchable; Unshelve puts it back where it was. On disk, a plain move into a
Shelffolder that mirrors the original path. - Scrolling lifts focus mode; the next click or keystroke brings it back where the caret lands.
- Paste a link over words to link them: with a web address on the clipboard, ⌘V over a selection makes
[words](url)instead of replacing the words. - A day’s note keeps its date as its name whatever its heading says, and only date-named notes appear in the Timelapse corridor.
- A new icon: the wordmark’s lowercase g on paper, ruled lines fading in from the left.
- The window reopens at the size and position you left it.
- Review works in the sandboxed App Store build (the web view needs the outgoing-connection entitlement to start).
- The app photographs itself for the store screenshots; no permissions, no one at the keyboard.
- App Store build 0.2.3 (6) submitted for review.
- Nested lists. Tab and Shift-Tab nest and un-nest bullets, numbers and tasks; numbered items renumber; Return on an empty nested item steps out.
- Headings centered by default, in the editor and Review, with a switch.
- Finished tasks sink below the unfinished ones after a moment, nested items in tow, and rise back home when unchecked. On by default, with a switch.
- Drag a task box, a bullet or a number to reorder a list.
- A steadier sidebar resize.
- Undo for almost everything: after the editor’s own undo runs out, ⌘Z reaches file operations — a new document, a rename, a move, a duplicate, a trash.
- Settings became a taller card with room to breathe; the Themes pane scrolls; Tab cycles the panes.
- A hand-made wordmark in the sidebar header.
- The App Store flavor: sandbox, an iCloud container of its own, bookmarked custom folders, and the packaging scripts. A privacy policy.
- Ocean became the default look, then a set of first-install defaults tuned for writing: typewriter and focus on, a soft 4 pt caret.
- The ⌘K command bar, listing what applies where you are.
- Search that glides from the header to the middle of the window on ⌘F, and searches full text.
- The Daily timeline — later Timelapse — as a receding corridor, with ⌘D for the view and ⌥⌘D for today’s note.
- Quiet chrome while typing; the ⌘/ shortcut sheet; themes that follow the system; the Start writing placeholder; daily notes; PDF export; the card that grows into the page.
- Faster launch: the library is listed without reading a file, and previews, tags and search text arrive on a background queue.
- Gradient strikes, lit capsules, softer edges. Click a task’s
[ ]to check it, in the editor and in Review. - Documents open with the caret at the end.
- Glassine 0.1, first public commit: the glass window, the smooth caret, the iCloud library, autosave, the Craft-style sidebar, All Documents, Review with five styles, copy as Markdown or rich text, typewriter scrolling, focus mode, the counter.
- ⌘P for All Documents, ⌘S for the sidebar; date tokens (
@today,@yesterday,@tomorrow); full-text search on ⌘F; the release pipeline and the daily update check.
