Release v1.2.3

Chord Song 1.2.3

Blender add-on release built from tag v1.2.3.

Installation

1. Download chordsong-1.2.3.zip
2. In Blender, go to Edit > Preferences > Get Extensions
3. Click "Install from Disk..." and select the ZIP file
4. Enable the add-on

Overlay: click feature

• Click a toggle to flip it. Overlay stays open so you can chain several without re-opening.
• Click a script to run it. Ctrl-click runs it and keeps the overlay open.
• Hover highlights the script you're about to click.

Better error messages

Unknown operators, missing scripts, bad mapping paths, and scripts outside the configured folder now show clear errors in the Info panel and as fading overlay.

Security

• The Allow Custom User Scripts toggle is user-only: shared configs can no longer silently enable it. Your setting
  persists across Blender restarts and addon reloads.
• When a scripts folder is set, executions outside that folder are blocked.

Changes

Chord Song v1.2.1

Recents overhaul

• Fixed a bug where executing window-launching commands (like Open Preferences) from Recents would lock up keyboard input until ESC
• Pressing your Recents chord inside Recents now correctly repeats the most recent command, even with shifted keys like Shift+R
• Your mapped close key now works inside Recents too — not just ESC
• New repeat_recent parameter: set to False in your chord kwargs to make the Recents key close the overlay instead of repeating

Leader modal improvements

• Holding down a key no longer rapid-fires chord tokens or triggers Recents repeatedly
• Your close/recents key now works from any depth in the chord tree — press it mid-chord to bail out instantly
• Disabled key-repeat on the leader keymap item at the Blender level

Visual tweaks

• Chord tokens now separated by spaces instead of + for cleaner readability
• Scripts with direct chord mappings now show their chord in Recents
• Close key hint hidden from scripts overlay footer (letters are used for filtering there)
• Default column gap bumped to 130

Several improvements inspired by @hced's work in PR #12 — including kmi.repeat = False, close overlay support in Recents, and the expanded meta-operator skip list.
