■ Pomodoro Timer

  • Added an "Hourglass" style to the Pomodoro Timer in the Time Toolkit: the centre becomes a realistic hourglass with sand running down through it, and it runs during focus, short breaks and long breaks alike.
  • Reworked the settings layout so the volume slider and the style dropdown each get a row of their own.

■ Honeycomb drawers

  • Fixed the drawer sliding along the edge and coming away from the cursor when dragged to the top or side of the screen.
  • Corrected the placement of the hexagonal cells so the grid lines look equally thick and sharp at every display scale.
  • Fixed preview thumbnails occasionally reverting to a generic icon after changing the spacing or the icon fill setting.
  • "Icons fill the hexagon" now applies to images and videos as well; turning it off no longer clips their corners.
  • Fixed drawers hidden behind another one still being opened by the mouse.
  • The area around the centre icon no longer lets clicks through to the drawer underneath.
  • Reworked the scale steps and smoothness of the "Content scale" slider.
  • Rebuilt the spread effect used by "Minimize title display".
  • With "Minimize title display" on, the centre icon is no longer dimmed by "Title Opacity".
  • Removed "Title Font Size" from the honeycomb drawer appearance settings.

■ Settings windows

  • Re-laid out and aligned the widths and label text across thirteen settings windows.
  • In Drawer Appearance, "Lock orientation" is now simply "Lock", and it stays in sync with the padlock on the title bar.
  • Fixed the toggle jumping position when "Show another city's time" is turned off in the watch face settings.
  • Fixed the clock settings window growing taller each time you switch between the digital and analog styles.

■ Other

  • Fixed descenders in World Clock city names being clipped along with their shadow.
  • The menu and collapse buttons on notes now appear on hover; while collapsed, the expand button stays visible.
