-
Provided a workaround for the OSX Java file selector bug that reports a non existent directory when you have double clicked a directory to select it.

Previous Versions
V1.2.01 (20/12/2022)
-
Fixed a bug in drag and drop (most noticeable in kronos.factory and montage.factory due to file sizes) where drag and drop operations were occasionally failing and providing
an error message about copy and paste not being possible.
-
Fixed a bug where using the View/Refresh menu option killed drag and drop.
-
Updated the status bar's file name display to show a truncated path (with the filename fully visible) if the the full path will not fit in the available space.
V1.2.00 (08/05/2022)
-
Updated how the applications are built. The Java Runtime is now embedded and updated to Java 17 as the minimum version.
There is no longer a need for a standalone version of Java to be installed
-
New installers for OS X (DMG), PC (MSI) and Linux (DEB) and basic ZIP and TAR packages.
-
The OS X DMG package is notarized for compatibility with the OS X security model.
V1.1.01 (05/07/2020)
-
Fixed problem on OS X Mojave and Catalina which was preventing access to protected folders.
V1.1.00 (18/04/2020)
-
If you double click on a patch, it will be sent to the synth's edit buffer.
-
The application now supports MIDI data logging to the application log, which can be enabled in the Preferences/Misc Tab.
It is recommended that this is not normally turned on, and it is only needed when required to help me diagnose any MIDI issues that
are reported if you are experiencing any such issues.
-
The Minimum Java Version is now Java 11, and I have rebuilt the applications with the latest support libraries.
The migration to Java 11 is a significant step, as I have been help back from migrating to Java 9 and above
due to Java PC MIDI issues that were causing garbled MIDI port names, which made it impossible to select MIDI ports.
These issues are now resolved in the recommended JREs.
Please see the Java Support page on the website for more details.

The applications support iMac Retina displays.
