New features

• Distance — Add Distance, in the Measure section of the Library drawer, draws a dimension from one object's surface to another. Drag, or click once on each object. The dimension shows the direct 3D distance with a double arrow, and its text always faces the camera. Esc or a right-click cancels. A locked object can be an end point, and a hidden one lets the click through. Distances go on the measurement layer, take its colour, are saved with the show, and Ctrl+Z undoes them.
• Distance card — double-click a dimension to open its card: name, Measured length, Text offset (m), Text side (Above / Below) and Text orientation (Parallel / Perpendicular).
• License revoked screen — if the license server reports that your key has been revoked, Logodenn shows a License revoked screen instead of the editor. Your plots and show files stay on your machine. From there you can Re-activate with the same key or a new one, or Deactivate to remove the revoked license.

Improvements

• 30-day trial — the free trial now lasts 30 days instead of 14. A trial already running is extended to 30 days from your first launch.
• Ruler colour — a ruler's axis, ticks and labels now take the colour of its layer, whatever colour source is selected. Move a ruler to another layer or change the layer's colour, and the ruler follows. A ruler on the default measurement layer still looks the same.
• License panel — Settings and the editor's License window show the same panel: your license status, your license key (read-only, so you can copy it before moving your license to another computer), and the Deactivate and Re-activate buttons. The buttons are always there; each one is greyed out when its action is not possible.
• No restart for license actions — activating, re-activating or deactivating a license takes effect at once. Logodenn no longer reloads the window.
• Clearer license errors — each license error now says what went wrong: no internet connection, license server busy, key not recognised, key already active on its maximum number of computers, system clock out of sync, or a venue Wi-Fi or firewall intercepting the connection. Each error also offers Open log folder, so you can send the log to support. When Logodenn can't confirm your license at startup, its screen now says what to do (reconnect, set your clock, or update Logodenn) instead of always asking you to reconnect.
• Keychain warning — if Logodenn can't read or save your license in your system's keychain, it now tells you once, instead of losing the license without a word.
  
  

Bug fixes

• On macOS, a downloaded Logodenn would not open: macOS said the app "is damaged and can't be opened". The app is now signed ad hoc (not yet notarised by Apple), so macOS asks you to allow it instead (see the note at the top).
• On recent Linux distributions (Fedora 44 and others) with Intel, AMD or open-source NVIDIA (NVK) graphics, the AppImage showed only an empty window at launch, with "Could not create default EGL display: EGL_BAD_PARAMETER" in the terminal. It now starts normally.
• On Windows and macOS, the license and the trial were never saved on the computer. Logodenn contacted the license server at every start, and an activated license was lost when you quit. They are now stored in the system keychain (Credential Manager on Windows, Keychain on macOS).
• The trial welcome message and the "days remaining" reminder came back every time you opened or closed a show. Logodenn now checks your license once per launch, shows these messages once, and stops the 30-minute reminder as soon as you activate a license.
• The editor's License window always said "Status: Active", even during the trial. It now shows your real status.

• Solo, Hide All and Reveal All — in the Layer and Class drawers, the S button of a row shows only that layer or class and hides the others. Hide All and Reveal All switch the whole list in one click. Objects with no class are not affected by the Class drawer.
• Layer order — drag a layer by its handle to move it up or down the list, or click Sort A→Z to sort them by name (LX 2 before LX 10). The new order is saved with the show and used everywhere layers are listed: Scene Hierarchy, Layer dropdowns, the dossier legend, Select → By Layer, layer cycling and the MVR export.
• Layer groups — put layers into folders with New layer group, then drag layers in and out. A group folds and unfolds, and its eye, lock and S act on every layer inside it. Ungroup puts the layers back in place without deleting any. On MVR export, a grouped layer is named Group / Layer.
• Highlight — the H button of a layer or a layer group fades every other layer, so you can see one part of the rig in context. It is temporary: it is not saved, not stored in Views, and never appears in a PDF or a thumbnail. Click H again or Reveal All to clear it.
• Label distance per View — in the Views drawer, the Labels block of a view has a Label distance (m) field: how far the labels stand from their fixture or truss. Each View keeps its own distance, and the active View updates at once.
• Move labels by hand — select fixtures or trusses and press Ctrl+L: each label of the last selected object gets a handle. Drag a handle to put that label where it reads well, and the same label of every selected fixture and truss follows. Each View keeps its own placement, the PDF shows it, and Ctrl+Z undoes a move. Esc or Ctrl+L again leaves, and Reset Label Placement in the right-click menu puts the selection's labels back. Needs an active View with labels shown.
• Open log folder — the new Troubleshooting card on the About page, and the license and connection screens, open the folder of the support log. When you report a bug, attach logodenn.log and its older copies. They now record errors, crashes and the Logodenn, system and WebView versions.
• Submit a ticket — the footer of Home, Shows, the GDTF browser and About opens the ticket form on logodenn.tech with your version filled in, and shows the real version number. The footer also has Open log folder, so the log to attach is one click away.
• Text Field formatting — a Text Field now looks on the page as it will in the PDF: same Roboto font, sizes in pt. Its toolbar adds underline, strikethrough, superscript and subscript, Font size on any selection, Text colour, Highlight, Clear formatting, justified text and Line spacing.
• Headings, lists and quotes in a Text Field — Text style turns a paragraph into Heading 1, 2 or 3. Bullet and numbered lists nest with Tab and Shift+Tab, and the toolbar adds Quote and Horizontal rule. You can also type them at the start of a line: # for a heading, - or 1. for a list, > for a quote, --- for a rule. Shift+Enter starts a new line in the same paragraph.
• Links in a Text Field — select some text and press Ctrl+K to link it to a web page or an email address. Links are clickable in the PDF, and Ctrl+click opens them from the editor.
• Image block — the new Image block puts a logo, photo or drawing from your computer on a page (PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, BMP or SVG). Drag a corner to resize it without distorting it, and double-click it to pick another image. The image is saved inside the show, scaled down to 2000 px if it is larger.

• Label spacing — the distance is now measured to the edge of the label, so a long name or a multi-line label on the left or right no longer overlaps its fixture.

• Showing a view in the technical file, or exporting it to PDF, made that view the active one in the Views drawer. The View you were working in now stays active.
• In a Text Field, clicking another block did not save the text, and the mouse dragged the block instead of placing the cursor or selecting words. Now a click anywhere outside saves the text, the mouse works inside it, and Ctrl+S saves while you type. Switching to another window no longer closes the editor, and leaving the show no longer loses what you were typing.
• Settings had a license key field that stored the key without activating it. Settings now shows your license status and an Activate license button. When there was no license and the trial could not be checked, Logodenn showed a connection error: it now says Activation required and offers Retry trial check. An invalid key and a network problem during activation now show different messages.

• Truss model preview — the Truss Card now opens with a thumbnail of the truss as it appears in the scene: its imported model or its built-in lattice.
• Change a truss model — from the Truss Card, Replace model… swaps the model of an imported truss, and Use a 3D model… gives one to a built-in truss. The file is checked before anything changes and the thumbnail previews it. The change applies on Save; Cancel keeps the current model.

• One undo per bulk edit — a bulk edit across 40 rows now takes one Ctrl+Z, not 40. Bulk edits of Layer, Class, Position and Focus Point can now be undone too.
• Undoable Selection Resume edits — Position and Focus Point changes made in the Selection Resume can now be undone.
• Template import back to pick-and-import — Camera, Layer and Table Setup templates return to choosing a template and importing it, and Save as Template for Table Setups is back in its templates panel. This undoes the 0.0.11 change, which could hide a newly saved template until the show was reopened.
• Log files on Windows — when the usual log folder can't be written, the app now writes its log to the temporary folder, so support can still see what happened.

• Trial — on computers where the system keychain refuses to save the trial token, the app could end up showing the offline screen to users still in their trial. The token is now kept in memory for the session, and the failure is logged.
• Remove from Group no longer pulls a fixture off its truss in an imported MVR where a group contains rigged trusses. Only a group's direct members count as its members.
• Opening a show saved before 0.0.7 now tells you how many objects the group conversion moved to the active layer, instead of moving them silently.
• Local library — a truss placed from the library keeps its 3D model on the next save, and a primitive keeps its own colour instead of taking the layer colour. If the library can't be read (locked file, permissions), the app now reports it instead of showing an empty library that the next change would save over, erasing every saved item.
• The Library drawer no longer widens with long truss or scene-object names; the 0.0.11 fix was incomplete.
• Templates — the suggested template name no longer matches an existing one, so pressing Enter can't overwrite a saved template by accident. Imported cameras are added after the show's own cameras, which stay untouched.
• Bulk edit — the bar's count matches the rows actually written ("Edit 12" no longer writes 8), a 1/10 range now reaches its upper value, and 101+ numbers rows in the order currently shown, even after sorting. A range that crosses a layer or group heading no longer renames the heading, and clearing a number cell no longer makes the object vanish.
• Technical file — Scene Table blocks now print the fixtures inside a group, and totals count only fixture rows, not layer or group headings. The on-screen preview refreshes after an edit.
• Scene Hierarchy rows get their separator lines back.
