Overview: A native macOS alternative to EVE-O Preview (v0.7.1-alpha)

Release v0.7.0-alpha · williamcpierce/Overview

v0.7.0-alpha is out, and we’d love to hear your feedback – credit to my brother/collaborator for this release!

Highlights:

  • Added option to enable previews to display on all desktops, including full-screen applications . This feature is still under development, and preview display bugs are expected. This feature may be especially useful to those who want better system performance while multiboxing on EVE, as the game client can only scale to lower resolutions when in full-screen mode.

Features:

  • Added option to display the name of the previewed application in the title bar, rather than the window title.
  • Added option to customize the location of the title bar on previews.
  • Settings window now dynamically resizes to fit the contents of each menu tab.

Bug Fixes:

  • Adjusted window level behavior of the settings window. In addition to floating on top of previews, the settings window now also appears in Mission Control.
  • Resolved alignment issues with the edit mode/resizing indicator, which now appears squarely in the bottom-right corner of previews.
  • Added numeric input validation to the default window size settings pane. Invalid values will now automatically revert to acceptable settings.
  • The LICENSE file has been renamed to LICENSE.md. This corrects file type errors in XCode. Thank you to @rogerlward for identifying this bug!
  • Excessive stream configuration updates have been eliminated, increasing performance of the application.
  • Added automatic settings migration from previous bundle IDs (only applies if you have not yet switched to Overview-alpha).

While we’ve done significant QA work on this release, we still expect bugs (especially regarding preview behavior on full-screen applications). Please report issues on our Discord, on GitHub, or here

Release v0.7.1-alpha · williamcpierce/Overview

v0.7.1-alpha is now out with fixes (I hope) for three major bugs

Bug Fixes:

  • Windows should now be closable on some macOS 13 (Ventura) and 14 (Sonoma) systems where this was broken before
  • Window closure fixes should prevent blank captures from persisting while closing the application
  • Windows should no longer all reset to selection view when a source window is closed
