v0.3.2 — Linux AppImage + Hotkey Fixes

v0.3.2 — 2026-05-20

Added

• Linux (Ubuntu) release: AppImage + .deb packages via Tauri bundle. Full X11 native integration — no xdotool dependency.
• build_linux.sh — one-command Linux build script with dependency checks and artifact summary.
• Linux .desktop file and 256x256 icon for app launcher integration.
• X11 native window management: XGetInputFocus, XGetGeometry, XSetInputFocus, XTestFakeKeyEvent replace all xdotool shell-outs.

Changed

• Hotkey registration now normalizes single-character keys to lowercase — eliminates CapsLock-dependent behavior on Linux (X11 keysyms are case-sensitive).
• Linux prerequisites simplified: removed libxdo-dev and xdotool apt dependencies.
• RunEvent::Reopen migrated to RunEvent::Opened for Tauri v2.11.x compatibility.

Fixed

• Linux popup focus: after showing, popup window now explicitly requests X11 input focus via XSetInputFocus — keyboard input reaches the popup immediately.
• Icon set updated: added 256x256 PNG required for Linux AppImage bundle.

clipBo v0.3.1

Highlights

• Response dialog merged into AI Chat: paste failures open result directly in Chat with loading animation. Continue the conversation, refine results, or copy — no more static dialog.
• Hotkey toggle: pressing popup hotkey while popup is open now closes it (no more "channel closed" errors).
• Clipboard safety: clipboard is no longer overwritten when result is shown in Chat.
• Error visibility: translate/smart-action failures now show user-facing error dialogs instead of failing silently.

Changed

• Setting renamed: "Open chat when paste is not possible" (was "Show result dialog when copy succeeds").
• Updated EN/VI/ZH translations for all new UI strings.

Fixed

• Insert Latest Reply clipboard crash: replaced AppleScript paste flow with direct clipboard copy.
• Clipboard not touched when target has no editable zone.
• Loading UX: Chat shows animated 3-dot bounce while AI responds.

clipBo v0.3.0

clipBo v0.3.0

Highlights

• Translate fix: selected text now cached during popup open, preventing silent empty-text errors when app loses text selection.
• Adaptive Ask dialog: shows text context preview (snippet + line count) when context is text, image thumbnail when context is image, with Clear context button.
• Auto-close chat: chat dialog closes automatically 400ms after inserting the latest reply.
• Full i18n: all new UI strings translated to EN/VI/ZH.
• Automated tests: 57 React component tests + 7 Rust unit tests.

Added

• Text context preview card in Ask dialog with snippet, line count, and Clear button.
• Auto-close chat dialog after inserting latest reply.
• Automated test suite: npm test / ./test.sh.
• run.sh auto-kills stale Vite process on port 5173.

Fixed

• Translate/smart actions silently failing when target app lost text selection after popup close.
• Ask dialog "Image context is loading..." replaced with adaptive text/image context panel.
• Vite dev port mismatch causing blank popup window.
