Linux Tool Tips and More Bug Fixing · Release Candidate 38

Import Improvements

After the last release has improved automatic imports to get canceled during application shutdown instead of waiting for them to finish, the same is now also done for manual imports. When restarting the application, it will ask whether the canceled import should be resumed.

An issue where importing a folder of files that had already been imported using the "keep source files" import mode would import some files again, even though they didn't change in the source folder. This was caused by an earlier import that got interrupted.

Another issue with import transfers was that temporary files could be left behind after errors during a file transfer.

Finally, automatic import entries shown in the synchronization pane now show a friendlier path representation of the import source folder, instead of displaying a raw URL.

Linux Improvements

The most visible addition to the Linux version is support for tool tips. Apart from allowing to get an idea of what an icon button does, without having to click it, there are also places where certain texts, such as file names or paths are too long to display them in the user interface. Tool tips are essential in this case to get the full information.

On systems that use a Wayland based display manager, the application now forces using the X11 protocol to avoid an error that otherwise prevents it from starting. Note that Aspect currently does not support Wayland directly.

As always, see the change log for the full list of changes.
