Hyperspaces 1.0.4 build 1485
January 19, 2010
This is a recommended upgrade for all users - it resolves many issues, but please read the release notes fully before updating.
- The space switcher is now shown by default when you click on the Hyperspaces icon in the menubar. Right click to show the menu from previous builds.
- Fixes the 'Show/hide desktop icons' control being disabled.
- Fixes the display of the Dock space switcher - it will show up in the right spot at all Dock icon sizes now.
- If the Hyperspaces icon in the menubar is not shown, using the hotkey to show the space switcher will cause it appear just above the current mouse location.
- Fixes the font rendering for the space name in the menu bar.
- Removes the warning when Spaces is disabled. Hyperspaces will continue to run if Spaces is disabled, but you'll only have access to change one space.
- Fixes the clearing of space background images under Mac OS X 10.5.
- Many other fixes and improvements.
Please note: this release of Hyperspaces updates your preferences to a newer format. Your existing preferences will be backed up first, but you will not be able to go back to an earlier build once this has happened.
Hyperspaces 1.0.3 build 1397
December 23, 2009
- Fixes a problem where new users would receive a warning on launching Hyperspaces the first time.
Hyperspaces 1.0.2 build 1396
December 22, 2009
- Fixes a problem where the animation speed was not respected by some of the desktop decorations.
- Fixes a problem where Hyperspaces would not quit or work after logging out of an account (either by shutdown or fast user switching)
- Fixes a problem where the Dock Switcher would not appear in the correct location on multiple monitor setups. I still have a couple of reports that this is not working with certain Dock orientations, so please submit feedback if this affects you.
- Fixes a problem where the space name could be set to nil - this should not have ever been possible, and won't work anymore. If your space names are set to nil before updating to this build
- Fixes a problem where the add/remove spaces controls were not disabled when the maximum or minimum number of spaces were reached.
- Fixes a number of common crashes.
- Desktop labels will animate again in this build.
- Improved error reporting - Hyperspaces will now ask you to submit error reports for recoverable errors.

Hyperspaces 1.0 build 1331
December 13, 2009
- Initial release of Hyperspaces.
Known issues
- For users who are running 1.0b9, this build may reset your space customisations - this should be the last time this happens. You can email your preferences to support@thecooabots.com to have them upgraded for you if you have trouble.
