Version History

5.0.7 (released Nov 15, 2010)

  • You may have to restart after installing WSX for the first time.
  • Addresses many parent-child relationship problems.
  • If a window is minimized (collapsed) and it suddenly gets a child window, the window will expand automatically. For example, collapse Safari then press Command L (to go to the location bar). Safari will expand itself.
  • No longer attempts to make a child float on top.
  • Lots of other parent-child relationship fixes.
  • Removed some spurious logging errors when EyeTV's setup assistant was closed.

5.0.6 (released Sep 25, 2010)

  • You may have to restart after installing WSX for the first time.
  • WSX now works with Adobe Bridge CS5
  • The depression is not as crushing, but I do want to sleep for 15-20 hours.
  • There are some known problems with windowshading [REDACTED]4 [REDACTED]3 in which grouped windows do not stay locked to each other but otherwise function correctly. Only 1% of crazy people should be affected by this issue.
  • Merged Koichi MATSUMOTO's latest Japanese translation. Many thanks are owed to him.
  • Other minor bugfixes.

5.0.5 (released Sep 2, 2010)

  • You may have to restart after installing WSX for the first time.
  • Addressed a problem causing WSX to not work in applications that appear to be carbon but use cocoa windows (Adobe AIR apps, Adobe Photoshop CS5 32-bit)
  • Includes APE 2.6.1 to properly handle 64-bit Adobe CS5 applications.
  • Works with iTunes 10. However, it is ugly. If you want the old title bar back in iTunes 10, just enable an iTunes 10 feature by opening the terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) and hitting return after entering the following on one line:

    defaults write com.apple.iTunes full-window -bool YES

  • Replace YES with NO to restore the default iTunes 10 behaviour (which is not the iTunes 9.x behaviour).
  • This depression is unbelievably painful.

5.0.4 (released Jul 12, 2010)

  • Addressed a packaging error that prevented WSX from working with carbon applications.

5.0.3 (released Jul 11, 2010)

  • Addressed a problem causing missing symbol errors to appear in the console.
  • Updated the Japanese translation.
  • Some other minor bug fixes
