• Grouped window buttons use the same background and pointer feedback as other window buttons in light and dark appearance.

Improved

• The first-run guide opens before licensing when setup is incomplete.

Improved

• Back and forward buttons use a single native navigation control with a divider, like macOS System Settings.

Fixed

• Shared application icons in combined window groups use the same leading inset as ordinary window tasks.

Improved

• The latest version is expanded by default. Earlier versions can be expanded individually.

Added

• See Trial status and the remaining days in the Settings sidebar.
• Buy from the simplified license page, with the Trial expiry date and purchase offer together.
• The Trial discount is 20% until the final 20 days, then matches the remaining days and appears in the sidebar.

Fixed

• Technical license details are collapsed, and an active Trial no longer offers to start another Trial.
• The remaining days and purchase offer refresh when the date changes.

Fixed

• Both numbered desktop controls and Space section buttons use a continuous native transition instead of an instant high-velocity swipe.
• Transitions through several Spaces wait for each adjacent destination to settle before continuing.
• A cancelled request finishes its open gesture; an unconfirmed transition is never retried or reversed automatically.

Fixed

• A compact, aligned diagram for the four panel margins, with point units beside each value.
• Fractional margins remain visible and editable. Native stepper arrows change each margin by 0.5 pt.
• Half-point values are preserved in settings and applied to panel geometry on Retina displays.

Fixed

• Glass density now adjusts the native macOS glass diffusion instead of adding a dark or light color tint. The maximum makes the material matte.
• The same density applies to the panel, window and Downloads lists, and tooltips. Opening Downloads preserves the panel material.

Preserved

• The smooth 0–100% control, profile compatibility and default system appearance at 0%.
• Existing settings and macOS appearance preferences.

Added

• Independent glass density slider in Appearance, from 0% to 100%, for Dockline's panel, lists and tooltips. The default 0% preserves the current glass appearance.
• Glass density is included in settings export/import and appearance reset/undo. Existing settings archives open with the neutral default.

Preserved

• One native glass material, with density applied as its tint and consistent panel appearance when Downloads opens or closes.

Fixes

• Match the Settings window task to ordinary window tasks: shared title and icon layout, panel surface, corner radius, hover feedback and background preference.
• Show the same active and minimized indicators, and localize the Settings task title and window commands.

Fixes

• Reduce Downloads folder and stack artwork to the task icon size while preserving the button and click area.

Fixes

• Keep the panel's system glass appearance consistent when opening and closing Downloads or other panel lists.
• Preserve keyboard focus behavior and system glass appearance settings.

Changes

• Extend window task clicks to the bottom screen edge. The Show Desktop corner button has been removed.
• Use one native system glass material, controlled by macOS appearance settings.
• Display an open Dockline Settings window as a task.
• Control Mission Control, Downloads and Trash independently.
• Read this release's changelog in Settings → Updates.

Fixes

• Match combined task icons to ordinary task icons.
• Match Downloads icons to other utility buttons and reduce utility spacing.
• Refresh the Downloads stack when the folder changes, before opening its list.
• Refresh window previews on window discovery and focus changes instead of repeated timer captures.
• Remove the non-configurable file-drag explanation and the duplicated preview switch from Permissions.

Known issues

• Visual glass appearance, pointer behavior across display edges and transitions between Spaces remain subject to physical acceptance.

Changes

• See playback progress across the whole window button for Music, Spotify and VLC. Enable track position in Settings and allow Automation access for each player.
• Open the license page to buy a year of Full, restore a purchase or manage your Macs.
• Choose automatic update checks and downloads, or install updates when prompted.
• Report a bug or suggest an improvement from Settings.
• The Start menu logo now follows the light or dark appearance.

Fixes

• Restoring a purchase waits for confirmed Full access and updates the displayed expiry date automatically.
• Disconnecting a Mac correctly releases its activation slot.
• Telegram's temporary quit reminder no longer adds a task to the bar.
• Diagnostics keeps only the three most recent quit requests.

Known limitations

• Moving windows between displays and desktops is an opt-in beta. Compatibility varies by app.
• Track position requires a supported player and Automation permission. Live playback checks are complete for VLC; Music and Spotify verification is still pending.
