New Features
- Boxy's email composer now supports Markdown to HTML conversion and vice versa! You'll find a new button in the formatting options, let us know what you think.
- Multiwindow is here! Alt+Click on an account in the Account menu to open it in a separate window. It’s the first glimpse of a much more powerful multiaccount system that we are working on
- New Settings pane with many options, like: Show/Hide menu bar item, use sounds, change font size, always open links in background
- New Edit → ‘Select All Messages’ menu item, to easily select all emails currently displayed in a folder or in your inbox
- New Account → ‘Add account’ menu item
- New Back button to exit the authentication flow and other areas of the app
- New full screen email composer (takes advantage of Inbox new maximized composer, completely restyling it)
- Notifications now have a custom sound
- New Minimal theme
Interface changes
- Completely rewritten styling for better performance and looks
- Completely redesigned Reader mode, with a new button to activate it on the top right corner of each message
- Reduced Boxy’s minimum width and new compact look when used at that width
- Restyled and more minimal top bar UI
- Tweaked the color of the top bar to match the look of Inbox on Chrome
- Recent contacts now appear when hovering the compose button
- New transitions to make the UI smoother and snappier
- Bigger sidebar when Boxy is in full screen or maximised on big displays
- Lots of other tweaks and improvements
Fixed
- Authentication now works with Okta, OneLogin and other systems
- Spell check while typing is now enabled by default
- Substantial performance improvements and bug fixes
- Cmd+Click opens links in background reliably
- Hide attachments is now persistent across app launches
- Boxy now remembers the last window position on launch
- Correct multitasking behaviour; when returning to the app with Cmd+Tab after closing its window, the window reopened automatically, which is not the desired behaviour under OS X. Now it stays hidden, and the user has to manually reopen it (correct behaviour)
