v0.14.0

What's New

• add a bit of border-radius for all select elements + increase height of the environment selector in nav bar, so the user has more clickable area + increase padding of full width inputs & select elements
• Settings > Change widths from 3 rows into 1 row with 3 columns, so that they take up less space
• Sidebar > Sidebar Item > Show full name of the item in a tooltip when hovering mouse over it, as the only other way the user can see a really long collection item name is by right clicking and opening properties - as we don't wrap really long names - they just get cut off in the ui beyond the width of the sidebar (similar to vscode)
• Request Panel > sync path params from url to Query tab (completes #50 and #129)
• Request Panel > Query > URL Preview (completes #50)

Fixes

• SocketPanel > IO v3 & v4 > received message is shown as [Object object]
• Sidebar > Collapse All > Can't collapse newly created folders that haven't been collapsed at least once as collapsed property won't be present
• Settings > Reset Width also resets all settings
• Folder properties > auth + headers > env var does not become green / resolve if it's in folder environment
• Sidebar > drag moving a collection item of type request and socket from one folder to another does not reload displayed env vars in the inputs, as per the folder's environment - so the highlight color remains red, even if env var is available after the move into a folder

Full Changelog: v0.12.0...v0.13.0

v0.12.0

Fixes

• shell.openExternal fails to open external browser for external links on some systems but the open module is able to, so we'll be switching to that
• Request Panel > Script > multiple plugins get created if you type the code really quickly for the first time - addPlugin can get called more than once causing all kinds of problems - this creates stray scripts that get executed on every request run but can never be deleted as they are not visible in the ui
• Request Panel > Script > skipScriptUpdate was being set to true but not set to false until 2nd update, so script doesn't get saved + we also add keys to the code mirror editors, so they don't share instances with other tabs (fixes #124)
• Tab name doesn't update after updating name in properties dialog (fixes #125)
