# OpenTerminal Changelog

## v1.0.15 - 2026-09-20

- **Custom terminal background image**: Settings → Theme → Background image lets you use any local image as the terminal background, with 10%–100% image opacity control; removing the image restores the solid background
- **Duplicate-name warning in the theme editor**: creating or renaming a theme that collides with a builtin or another custom theme now shows a hint (saving is still allowed)
- Theme editor seed colors are normalized; invalid color values can no longer enter custom themes
- Corrupted custom theme colors are auto-repaired to defaults with a warning logged

- The selected item in the settings dialog's left navigation is now white, matching the contrast of unselected items (fixes unreadable blue text on dark backgrounds)
- New background-image and opacity controls ship with localized strings in all four languages (zh-CN / zh-TW / en / ja)

- Added freeze-duration probes for the renderer and main process to help diagnose future "not responding" reports

## v1.0.14 - 2026-09-20

- Fixed silent corruption of uploaded files **larger than ~250KB** (size looked correct but the content had scrambled bytes)
- Fixed a remote file-handle leak on every download and a leftover SFTP channel after every transfer; a malformed server response no longer crashes the whole app
- Uploading over an existing file now asks for confirmation; partially failed multi-file deletes are now reported
- Permission editor fixes: files with unknown mode no longer get a stray `chmod 000`; an empty GID is no longer replaced by the new UID; setuid / setgid / sticky bits are shown and preserved
- chmod / chown now time out instead of spinning forever

- Fixed Chinese output over SSH turning into mojibake (multi-byte chars split across network chunks)
- Fixed command history being lost or corrupted after accepting a Tab completion
- Fixed editing keys (Ctrl+U / Ctrl+W, …) being written into command history (the "two commands merged" entries)
- `cd ~/dir` and `cd $HOME/...` are now remembered; new terminals restore them
- URL click ranges inside lines containing CJK characters no longer shift; degenerate sizes are no longer sent when the window is tiny
- SSH sessions report the real exit code; ZMODEM timeouts no longer dump garbage into the terminal or the log

- A failed session restore no longer disables snapshot saving for the whole run
- Monitor CPU / network history charts now redraw live; polling stops while the SSH workspace is hidden
- Broadcast: closing one pane of a split no longer drops the other from broadcast targets; unchecking one target no longer clears the rest
- Connection failures show the real reason; double-clicks no longer open duplicate sessions
- Fixed "Close others / Close right" skipping tabs
- Language switches apply from the first frame; active-tab text adapts after a theme switch (no more unreadable labels on light themes)
- The private-key path field no longer claims to be a server-side path

- File drops can no longer navigate the window; external links are limited to http(s) / ftp; IPC is sender-checked
- Stored passwords are only used for password-auth bookmarks (key-auth bookmarks no longer fall back to sending a password)
- Connections / known hosts are written atomically — a crash can no longer wipe them
- A crashed renderer has all of its sessions and logs reclaimed automatically
- A corrupted custom theme no longer prevents the app from starting
- Update-channel publishing is atomic — a failed publish can no longer break auto-update

## v1.0.13 - 2026-09-20

- Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English and Japanese, switchable in Settings → System → Language; applies instantly and persists
- The whole app is translated: settings pages, workspace, terminal context menu and search, SSH connections, file panel, system monitor, command panel, tray menu and the close prompt
- antd's built-in component texts (empty states, pagination, …) follow the interface language

- The changelog now ships **inside the app**, so it works offline instead of relying on a network endpoint
- The changelog is multi-language: shown in the active interface language, falling back to Simplified Chinese for versions without a translation

- Fixed "Close button → Ask every time" doing nothing (it was silently rewritten to "Minimize to tray")
- Highlight rules are no longer silently dropped over shape problems: string priorities, 0/1 booleans and a missing foreground colour are repaired, and unknown fields are preserved
- Settings parse warnings are written to `settings-warnings.log` so a broken config is traceable

- The terminal toolbar is configurable (Settings → Rendering & behaviour): open working directory (on by default), session-log recording, open logs folder
- "Open working directory" opens the terminal's current folder in the file manager, tracked live through `cd`
- The global show/hide shortcut is now **press-to-record**: focus the field and hit the combo; Esc cancels, Backspace clears; a modifier or function key is required so plain typing is never hijacked
- "Input suggestions" and "Record command history" now default to off (existing installs are reset once; later manual changes are never overwritten)
- Fixed the settings dialog content column not scrolling (an antd v6 container class rename); the theme page no longer shows a second nested scrollbar
- UI polish: render-mode and language pickers are joined segments, with corrected text contrast on the selected segment

`scripts/sync-changelog.cjs` merges `RELEASE_NOTES.en.md` into this file at
release time. The content ships inside the app; the About tab shows the
changelog for the active interface language and falls back to Simplified
Chinese for versions that have no translation yet.

## v1.0.12 - 2026-09-20

### Light-theme contrast fixes
- Tab bar and sidebar colours now derive from the theme background's luminance: on light themes the tab bar stays in the terminal's own colour family (no more muddy grey strip), while dark themes are unchanged
- Fixed tabs rendering as dark blocks with white text on light themes: tab surfaces and labels now come from theme variables — inactive tabs are light with dark text, and active-tab text is darkened automatically
- The settings dialog now follows light themes throughout: labels, descriptions, tables and palette text on the font, highlight and theme pages track the theme foreground and stay readable

### Stability
- Session-log writes now use a per-file buffer with a single drain loop: burst output is merged and stays ordered, with no unbounded queue growth
- Settings writes are serialized: changing the close action from the tray no longer clobbers a concurrent save from the settings UI
