Actual Virtual Desktops 8.15.1 (27.04.2024)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[-] Windows 10+, Window Settings: In some cases, settings stopped being applied
    to Metro/UWP apps after restarting Actual Virtual Desktops.

[!] Windows 11, Title Buttons: List of knows issues in this version
    (subject to fix in the future updates, last checked on Windows 11
    Version 23H2, build 22631.3447):

      - extra buttons may cover tabs in the system tabbed apps (File Explorer,
        Notepad, CMD/PowerShell)
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Virtual Desktops 8.15 (26.06.2023)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Security: Now all Actual Tools runtime executables natively support
    the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) and Address Space Layout Randomization
    (ASLR) security technologies provided by the system. That hardens
    the overall system security by preventing various exploit attacks.

[*] Title Buttons: Numerous fixes and improvements in Chromium-based apps:

      - glyphs on extra buttons did not change their color when toggling
        an app's window active/inactive

      - automatic gradual compact mode did not work in Opera and Vivaldi
        (so the extra buttons covered the browser tabs and the "New tab" button)

        Note: If you have specific windows settings for these browsers (either
        factory or custom) then you need to reset there the "Title Buttons >
        Options > Shift the buttons horizontally" value back to 0 to make
        the gradual compact mode work properly.

      - in some cases current title bar color could not be detected correctly,
        and the glyphs looked wrong (e.g. white in the Light visual theme)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    the Compact View popup toolbar appeared empty.

[-] Title Buttons: In some cases, extra buttons might not work in MDI windows.

[-] Configuration: The Send to Tech Support feature did not recognize
    Windows 11 marking the sent configurations as Win10-built.

    - popular web browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox;

    - Microsoft Office applications (since Office 2007);

    - Windows Explorer (since Windows 8).

    This feature should prevent the overlapping of extra title bar buttons
    provided by Actual Virtual Desktops with standard controls available
    in a window (like standard buttons, browser tabs, New Tab button, etc.).

[+] Automatic gradual Compact View is added for extra title bar buttons:
    now the buttons are getting hidden/shown 1-by-1 if there is not enough
    (or enough again) place in the title bar to show the full list of enabled
    extra buttons. When some buttons get hidden, the special Compact View button

    - with vertical shift applied

    - when maximizing/restoring a window where the compact mode was activated

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[!] The Configuration Module now can run multiple windows at once.

    For example, you can open several Window Settings windows using the
    "Manage window settings" title button (separate window for each settings).

    When several configuration windows are open at once, changes made within
    a particular window are isolated there until you click the Apply button
    in that window.

[!] Changes made in the Default Window Settings now are propagated automatically
    to all existing specific window settings (provided that the old value
    was the same in both Default and particular specific settings).

[+] Quick Setup wizard is added. It allows to tune up quickly the most
    frequently used features (according to collected and analyzed usage
    statistics) without diving into details.

[+] Compact mode for extra title buttons is now available: it displays the small
    narrow button instead of the full list of active buttons.

    Click on this button expands the list of active buttons so they can be used
    as usual. Second click on this button or click somewhere else collapses the
    list of active buttons so they do not block the view (this can be especially
    useful in non-standard windows like Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox).

    The compact mode activates either automatically (when the extra buttons
    do not fit the title bar) or it can be set permanently for particular
    windows in the Window Settings options (see the "Title Buttons - Options"
    group).

[+] In addition to a right click on extra title buttons, now you can hold
    the left mouse button on them for some time to invoke their extended
    abilities (like context menus or special dialogs).

    (classic to independent, or vice versa), windows got duplicated on all
    virtual desktops despite their current selection.

[-] Unwanted extra buttons of Microsoft Excel/PowerPoint or Adobe Acrobat
    appeared in the Virtual Desktops Switcher after switching the desktops
    with those programs running.

[-] Canceling the download in the "Check for Updates" dialog caused an error.

[-] Pressing Enter in the "Check for Updates" dialog after the download was
    started caused the restart of downloading.

    purchased copies. For more information, please refer to the license.txt
