✨ OpenSkinDesigner – Changelog Highlights (latest first)

v4.2.4.0

Resolution rescaling – ComboBox for all common resolutions (720p, 1080p, 1440p, 2160p); automatically rescales positions, sizes, fonts, and images.

Hybrid Preferences – PropertyGrid for main settings + ListView for raw key/value properties; dynamic language switch.

Raw XML attributes – New category "0 XML attributes" in PropertyGrid to edit custom/unknown attributes directly.

cDesigner improvements – Added getAttributes() and getAttribute(XmlNode) methods; extended zoom range (0.35x–10x).

Stability – Fixed missing using for XmlNode; resolved lc.exe license compilation error (removed empty licenses.licx).

v4.2.3.9

Add OpenATV Element menu – Quick insertion of OpenATV-specific elements (Panel Reference, Stack, Rectangle, Applet, Constant Widget, Layout).

Missing panel logging – Logs each missing panel reference only once to avoid log spam.

Double‑click on colors/fonts – Opens Colors/Fonts dialogs directly.

Convert wizard – Double‑click <convert> node to edit its content with undo/redo.

Image path resolution – Multi‑location search for images (project folder, skin folder, skins folder, executable folder).

CornerRadius as string – Accepts values like 30;topLeft,topRight; preserves full string in XML.

Gradient tolerance – backgroundColor accepts gradient syntax (e.g., red,green,vertical) without errors.

Stability fixes – Fixed NullReferenceException in sGraphicWidget.updateObject and other crashes.

Holding Shift while moving a widget with arrow keys now moves by 10 pixels instead of 5, allowing faster repositioning. Ctrl+arrow remains 1 pixel for fine tuning.

- **Magnetic snapping (M key)**

When moving a widget with the mouse, its edges snap to other widgets or screen borders within a 6-pixel threshold. Press M to toggle (ON/OFF), with status displayed in the global status bar. Magnetic snap is applied before grid snap when grid is enabled.

- **Keyboard Shortcuts help window**

Added a dedicated help window (`FHelp`) listing all keyboard shortcuts and mouse actions, accessible from the `?` menu → `Keyboard Shortcuts`. The window content is fully translatable via `GetTranslation`.

OpenSkinDesigner Setup 4.2.4.3

### MOD v4.2.4.3 – Lululla

**New Features & Improvements**

- **Auto-update version comparison fix**
The update check now correctly compares semantic versions using `System.Version`. Previously any version difference (even if the online version was older) would trigger an update request. Now the update is offered only when the online version is strictly greater than the installed one.

- **Rulers visibility fix**

Rulers (horizontal and vertical) are now properly shown when the application starts and when a skin is opened. The 'Rulers' button in the designer toolbar reflects the correct state (checked when visible). Rulers disappear automatically when the skin is closed.

- **Translation coverage extended**

Language support has been increased to cover approximately 95% of all UI strings, including every entry in the keyboard shortcuts help window. Missing translations fall back to English gracefully.

- **Minor stability improvements**

General code cleanup and small bug fixes to enhance the overall user experience.

- **Rulers visibility fixed**:

Horizontal and vertical rulers now appear correctly when a skin is opened and hide when the skin is closed. The 'Rulers' button in the designer toolbar reflects the actual state.

The update check now uses proper semantic version comparison (System.Version). Updates are offered only when the online version is strictly greater than the installed one, preventing false update prompts.

- **Extended translation coverage**:

Over 95% of the user interface strings are now translatable, including all entries in the keyboard shortcuts help window. Missing translations default to English.

- **Grid and magnet snap improvements**:

Designer grid and magnetic snapping now work more reliably, with visual feedback in the status bar (press G to toggle grid, M to toggle magnet).
