Happy New Year Everyone! We have some exiting new features and fixes since RC-1! 🎉🎉

Changes since last RC

• None public RC-3 and RC-4 for choco package testing. The current RC-4 only works via Steam and direct download for now.
• Window handling
  • Revert custom window handling changes from RC-1 and add Qt dark window navigation mode support. This is less buggy and also does not remove all window shortcuts, behaviour and shadows.
  • Add explicit quit and minimize warning.
• Windows
  • Fix windows wallpaper fade in calculation. We know correctly calculate the default Windows wallpaper position for nice fade-in animations.
• MacOS
  • Revert to 6.3.2 until WebEngine issues are resolved. See my bugreport here.
  • Fix Wallpaper showing app icon in dock.
• Wizards
  • Add qml project file to QML Wallpaper. This will lets user easier edit QML Wallpaper via QtCreator
• Widgets
  • Small icon and window handling fixes.
• Development
  • Deprecate QtMaintanance based Qt setup. We now use aqt directly and thus no longer require a Qt account. If you are using VSCode you can simply install the C/C++ and CMake Tools with the newly added CMakePresets.json. QtCreator still has some issues, see my bugreport here.
• Linux
  • Add working linux CI. This also includes a working KDE Wallpaper version that is not yet 100% ready.
