Vertical tabs, full-width mode, improved diagram viewer, and critical Mac App Store fixes for Pro purchase persistence and session restoration.
New Features
- Vertical Tabs — Chrome-inspired sidebar layout for managing 10+ documents. Shows full filenames without truncation. Toggle via the tab bar button or right-click menu.
- Drag-to-Reorder Tabs — Rearrange your open documents by dragging in both horizontal and vertical orientations.
- Full Width Mode — New toggle in the stats bar stretches content to the full window width. Ideal for wide diagrams, tables, and code blocks.
- Dynamic Tab Bar — Tabs shrink automatically as you open more documents, just like your browser.
- Improved Mermaid Diagrams — Fullscreen viewer now auto-fits diagrams to the screen, stays crisp at any zoom level, and zooms toward your cursor.
- Cross-Platform Keyboard Shortcuts — JavaScript fallbacks ensure shortcuts work on Linux, Windows, and non-QWERTY keyboards. Ctrl+= added for zoom on international keyboards.
Bug Fixes
- Mac App Store: Pro purchase persistence — Pro upgrade is now correctly remembered across app restarts. No more needing to restore purchases every time.
- Mac App Store: Session restoration — Previously opened files now persist across restarts using security-scoped bookmarks. The macOS sandbox no longer causes files to vanish on relaunch.
- Mac App Store: Print support — Print / Export to PDF (Cmd+P) now works in the sandboxed App Store build.
- Search in code blocks — Find now matches text across syntax-highlighted spans inside code fences. Scrolling to matches inside code blocks works correctly.
- Search box keyboard shortcuts — Cmd+Left/Right now moves the caret in the search input instead of triggering document navigation.
- Close tab behavior — Closing a tab switches to the next tab on the right (or left if rightmost), matching Chrome.
- Linux: Empty menu items — macOS-only menu items no longer appear as empty entries on Linux.
- Windows: Fullscreen toggle — Toggle Full Screen menu item now works correctly.
Improvements
- About section updated with all current features
- Tab bar height fixed at 40px — no vertical overflow
- Scrollbar hidden on horizontal tab overflow
- MarkdownRenderer memoized to prevent unnecessary re-renders
