v0.1.4

Highlights

  • Lyrics songs can now keep their own presentation preferences. A song can remember its display mode, long-line wrapping choice, and selected lyrics theme when it is saved, loaded, prepared, or sent to stage.
  • Lyrics editing is safer. Cancelling an edit restores the song to its previous state instead of leaving partial changes behind.
  • Transcript segment selection now behaves more like a normal desktop list. A regular click selects one segment, while Cmd-click on macOS or Ctrl-click on Windows/Linux can build a multi-segment selection deliberately.
  • Quote refinement should feel faster for short transcript selections, while keeping the selected transcript visible until the quote draft is finished.
  • Desktop now gives clearer feedback when a trusted remote device changes scripture, lyrics, auto-present, or other live controls.

Improvements

  • Added lyrics reference formatting options so stage labels can show either the section name alone or a counted section label such as "Verse 1 of 5."
  • Improved lyrics stage rendering for long lines, inline verse numbers, text spacing, and theme previews.
  • Refined the Lyrics tab header so active-song controls, edit actions, and library navigation are easier to scan.
  • Reworked desktop notifications into a consistent toast surface for update checks, remote actions, and other short status messages.
  • Updated the transcript selection tooltip to explain regular selection and multi-select behavior.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where selected transcript segments could remain selected and later be unintentionally appended to a new selection.
  • Fixed the Quote action bar disappearing immediately after clicking Quote, before quote refinement completed.
  • Fixed lyrics menu actions so Edit Song and Delete Song fire from the menu reliably.
  • Fixed verse-number line height so verse numbers do not crowd the first line of staged scripture.
  • Fixed lyrics edit cancellation so discarded changes do not leak into the active song.

Notes

  • This is a focused desktop workflow release for lyrics presentation, remote-control confidence, transcript selection predictability, and faster quote creation.
