Full changelog

This is a minor update focusing on keyboard efficiency, distraction-free editing, and user settings accessibility.

Summary:

  • Distraction-Free Fullscreen Preview: Press F11 to hide the editor, status bar, and toolbar, displaying only your rendered document in fullscreen. Press Esc or F11 to return.
  • Quick Style Cycling: Tap Alt + T (themes), Alt + F (fonts), or Alt + D (tab sizes) followed by ↑/↓ arrow keys to quickly customize the editor interface without using the mouse.
  • Recent Files Dialog: Access your recently opened documents in a clean, scrollable window using Ctrl + R.
  • Keyboard Controls: Quit the app with Ctrl + Q and reload/refresh the app cleanly with Ctrl + Shift + R.
  • Remapped Shortcuts: Adjustments made to word wrap, sync scroll (Alt + X), and line numbers (Alt + C) to prevent keyboard conflicts.

Technical Details:

  • Capture-Phase Leader Sequence: Integrated a capture-phase keydown event listener in [keyboard.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/src/core/keyboard.js) to intercept up/down arrow inputs after Alt-chords. This manages a 2-second timeout window to prevent standard CodeMirror inputs during configuration cycling.
  • Tauri Window Optimization: Modified [window.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/src/platform/window.js) to utilize Tauri's isMaximized, maximize, and unmaximize APIs. This avoids OS-level borderless fullscreen layout glitches in Windows where the WebView lag leaves unpainted areas.
  • DOM & CSS Refactoring: Repositioned the split container to fixed viewport coordinates (inset: 0) and applied theme-based background paint during fullscreen mode. Replaced submenu elements in [index.html](file:///e:/project/featherMD/index.html) and [base.css](file:///e:/project/featherMD/src/styles/base.css) with a modal layout (#recent-files-modal and #recent-files-list).
  • Safety reload: Implemented a reload utility that prompts the user through confirmDiscardChanges() in [file-io.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/src/core/file-io.js) to protect modifications before refreshing.
  • Test Suite Enhancements: Added comprehensive vitest suites: [fullscreen.test.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/tests/ui/fullscreen.test.js) validating JSDOM classes and hint timeouts; [themes.test.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/tests/ui/themes.test.js) validating cyclical array traversals; and updated toolbar element assertions in [toolbar.test.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/tests/ui/toolbar.test.js) and [html.test.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/tests/html.test.js).
