What changed

  • Make the right size panel have a smaller min width and don't proportionally resize according to window size, noticeable in 4k
  • To draw attention to say Production connections, blink the colored strip behind the connection name. The blinking happens at random intervals 30 secs to a minute or so making it less easy to ignore a set rhythm. Connections settings enables this feature.
  • Place Manage connections, Settings, License Info, and About before theme choices in the application menu
  • Retain each saved message filter's AI Assist request and use filters tagged to the same topic across Dev, UAT, Prod, and other connections as compact historical examples for future AI suggestions
  • Keep large playbook builds responsive by showing cancellable create-topic progress, reporting the current topic at regular intervals, reducing syntax-highlighting overhead, and disabling highlighting by default above 50,000 characters with an option to apply it anyway
