We are happy to introduce the updated version of the crop feature. :)
Now, it is possible to crop a window directly without first putting it in PiP (Picture in Picture) mode.
You can even interact with the crop view using your mouse and keyboard. :)
You can update and modify the crop region on the fly via the native window or directly from the PiP view
You can also use a shortcut key to toggle crop and modify it (not shown in the video)
Added option to configure the hidden behavior when you crop a window - you can configure it not to hide the window or to hide it.
• You can configure it from settings under PiP & Crop tab
• Global exception handler - added more information in the error window
• Added toggle to configure enabling the Crop button in toolbar
The toolbar settings now include an easy way to set up hotkeys per each button
• When the user tries to choose a hotkey that is already assigned to another action, the app will ask if you wants to unassign the previous action and use that hotkey for the new action. Before that, it only said that the hotkey was unavailable.
• The app will display any hotkey already used by another program in red and notify the user. Previously, it did not do this.
Fixed bug when enabling PiP mode on Discord shared screen window, that the content of the window in the PiP view may become black (WindowTop often doesn't work on discord #320)
Fixed DPI bug in the always-on-top border that sometimes the border position is wrong
DPI bugfixes for PiP and Crop
• Fixed bug that when resizing the source window of the PIP view, the PIP view size and ratio were not updated to the updated size and ratio of the source window
Before
PIP.-.Fix.source.win.resize.-.Before.webm
After (Fixed)
PIP.-.Fix.source.win.resize.-.After.webm
Improved app stability by removing almost all thread-locking mechanisms and replacing them with a less drastic approach. Freezing is now a very rare case
Added recovery logic that triggers in case the app is unable to exit (frozen in exit); in the worst-case scenario - after 30 seconds the app will kill itself
Fixed bug in PIP that when you minimize the PIP window (directly from PIP mode), the window was not minimized correctly (Set top problem #314)
Fixed bug that when having an anchor of a PIP view of an elevated window, the anchor shows the icon of WindowTop with the wrong title
Fixed bug with PIP crop selector and anchors that sometimes, while dragging the selected crop region, it may drag the anchor
Fixed hotkey bug for PIP that the hotkey did not work for PIP view owned by elevated window
Fixed bug in PIP + Interact mode that the mouse scroll working only after the mouse entered the PIP window a second time
Fixed PIP recovery logic when the program crashes while having PIP view to an elevated window. In such case, when you open the program again, it will able to recover that window
Code optimization that may improve performance
Fixed a few bugs in the hotkeys settings UI
Fixed bug in PiP with the mouse-hover-preview when live preview is disabled
Improve and stabilize the core logic of the window-manager system in WindowTop (make it more stable and optimized)
Improve, stabilize, and optimize part of the core logic of the anchors system. This may fix some bugs and improve behavior.
Fixed bug in Anchors that after moving the window to another screen, the anchor was still located on the previous screen
Fixed UI bug in the crop selector toolbar when the Windows theme is in light mode
Changes
[PiP - Picture-in-Picture] Added "Spotify.exe" and "Slack.exe" to the default list of applications where the mouse interaction is enabled by default when activating PIP mode (these apps work perfectly with the mode)
[Toolbar] Removed the "Disable when maximized" option when showing it on PIP view (PIP can't be maximized)
[Settings - Quick Start / Wizard] Set on top tab renamed to "Always on Top"
[Settings - Quick Start / Wizard] The PiP tab was reorganized from the most useful feature to the least useful
[Settings - Quick Start / Wizard] The PiP tab name was renamed to "PiP & Crop"
[Settings - Hotkeys] Page adjusted for the Crop hotkey (now possible to run it on a native window instead of having to go to PIP mode first. so now the hotkey page reflects it)
[Settings - Quick Start / Wizard - Anchors tab] Rename the "None" option to "Minimum Movement" in Anchor auto-move configuration
[Logs] Remove unused logs from the Anchors feature
