Change Log
Version 3.3.1.8
Nov 10, 2024
More small UI improvements with special focus to clear instructions.
feat
In cases when it is probhibited to interact with active page, there are now clear instructions and web picker button is hidden. Link to related issue is present when there is one.
feat
When you want to pick from a web page ED now clearly tells you that you have to move the mouse first. It wasn't clear before and could be source of confusion.
feat
Upgraded to new Svelte v5, which results in some small improvements and larger ColorPicker refactors.
fix
Clearly show that you can't pick from a page which is SVG alone #213. This might be fixable in feature, but isn't possible at the moment.
fix
Don't show empty color overlay when picking from web when you didn't move your mouse yet.
fix
ED now adds more internal checks so it can be really sure, it can interact with a page.
fix
Correct URL for error reports with extension version included.
promo
ChatPlayground in bottom banner.
chore
Pages displayed on extension install or major update are now leading to browser specific pages. This should help with browser related communication now when ED supports also Firefox, with Edge and maybe Opera on the way.
chore
Dependencies update: DaisyUI, tslib, vitest.
Version 2.4.2.5
Oct 30, 2024
This release is focused on small improvements and better error handling.
feat
Firefox version is finally complete and available at Firefox Addons.
feat
Based on multiple reports, I made the Pick color from a web page button more prominent again, and also easier to read. Color picker is now moved bellow color squares to Mix a color button.
feat
Error reporting tab is now opened when you hit a problem when trying to pick a color from a web page. I'm still working on improving error message page, but the end game here is to make error reporting easier. You can disable opening of error tab in ED's option page.
feat
I switched ED's internal communication from Chrome API to
@webext-core/messaging. This should be more robust then previous implementation. And thanks to better typing, it already helped me catch one small bug.feat
Eye Dropper is now using WXT framework. That probably don't mean much to you, but it will help me with development and probably speed up some tedius tasks.
