Upgrade Electron

Electron and Tahoe don't play well together and Electron apps spike GPU usage.

You absolutely ROCK, Matt! It's all good now. Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up. I will take a look at upgrading. I had been putting this off because new versions of Chromium don't work with "third party cookies" which kind of breaks the app.

Found a workaround for this. Will release a new version soon.

The link in the footer to changelog doesn't work and I can't find the release log to 1.19.6

But 1.19.6 is still using Electron 14.2.9, correct?

Yes there were other breaking changes with the upgrade that I am still working through.

Following. I had tried sending an email about this, but never heard back. Waiting for this fix before I upgrade to Tahoe.

I've just released a new beta version (v1.20.2-beta) of the Mac app that should fix the Tahoe issue. You can download it by turning on beta updates in Preferences → App Update → Beta Releases.

When you first launch the beta version it will sign you out so just you'll just need to sign back in.

I'm not on Taho, but I've noticed a weird bug. It's regarding the top section of every deck page. All clickable areas in this region, except the bottom 5 pixels are kind of masked out by an invisible barrier. This makes buttons impossible to click, unless the mouse is hovered on the very lower parts.

I have marked the un-clickable area in red.

(Version 1.20.3-beta)

Thanks for the bug report, Sayed. I noticed this myself, too.

Seems like the way that draggable regions are handled in electron has changed, causing this regression. I'll work on fixing that today.
