Releases: newmarcel/KeepingYouAwake
Updater and Icon Fixes
-
Fixed Sparkle Updates (Broken thanks to App Transport Security in OS X 10.11 and GitHub disabling HTTPS for pages) If you know someone with Version 1.3.0, please let them know that 1.3.1 is available and can be downloaded manually to receive future updates. This is a nightmare come true… 😱
-
Fixed rendering for custom icons: They are now rendered as template images
-
Added advanced settings to disable the blue highlight rectangle on click. Enable it with (replace YES with NO to disable it again):
defaults write info.marcel-dierkes.KeepingYouAwake info.marcel-dierkes.KeepingYouAwake.MenuBarIconHighlightDisabled -bool YES
I'm sorry for the broken updater in 1.3.0! 😭
