Features

• Added Wayland support. Note that XWayland won't work properly and warning is printed.

• Create an uninstall target for Makefiles

  This allows for developers (or users who are testing) to remove Input Leap from their system, based on $PREFIX.

• Added a new clipboard sharing size limiter to prevent transferring clipboards past a default value in bytes.

• Allow Qt version to be selected via CMake

  CMake now uses a sane default of Qt 5, but allows for a CMake option of QT_DEFAULT_MAJOR_VERSION, for overriding of the Qt library used during build.

  For example, setting QT_DEFAULT_MAJOR_VERSION to 6 uses Qt 6, and setting to 5 uses Qt 5. Older versions are not supported.

• Added new converters for X11 to support copy pasting png/tiff/jpg/webp formats.

• Added support for building against Qt 6 in addition to Qt 5.

Bug fixes

• Corrected macOS packaging to provide a better error message when a user attempts to launch InputLeap on an incompatible macOS version. (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1260).
• Removed limitation in Corner Size GUI to allow higher value than 99 (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/159)
• Fixed a dead lock entered when a server screen is suspended, so that screen-resume message will work as expected.
• Fixed spacing for max clipboard input on in the advanced server settings (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1644).
• Added a log limit to 10,000 lines to prevent RAM use from constantly increasing.
• Reduced CPU usage of log window.
• Fixed clipboard sharing toggle in GUI (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1789)
• Fixed generation of new certificates.
• The source distribution tarball no longer contains debian folder which previously clashed with data provided by the Debian packaging.
• Fixed support for debugging commpand line apps on Linux. Previously they would exit whenever debugger tries to interrupt them which makes debugging useless.
• Fixed out of bounds write which sometimes causes crash when switching screens.
• Fixed per-display scaling on Windows (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1952, https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/94, https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/206)
• Fixed wrong encoding for text copied between Linux and Windows (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1037, https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1137).
• Fixed issue with X11 clipboard sharing images as text targets or in other targets than the one it should have.
• Fixed build on GCC 11.2 or newer (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1366).
• Fixed potential crash during app shutdown.
• Updated Japanese translation.
• Fixed "Fix preserve Focus" option on Linux servers (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1066).
• Fixed a potential memory leak that may cause server memory usage to grow during repeated reconnection attempts.
• Renamed references to InputLeap in translations.
• Fixed InputLeap code to produce reproducible build artifacts.
• Fixed potential crashes during server shutdown due to a stale pointer to freed memory.
• Updated Server IP shortcut to not conflict with Start/Stop button.

Improved Documentation

• Updated FAQs in project README.md with more detail on OS support and links to issues for infrequent users. (https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/1260).
• Added a note in README.md on how to obtain test builds.
• Fixed input-leap.conf.example-advanced to accurately include the advanced configuration described in/intended by the comment within it.
• Updated LICENSE file in repository to reflect fork from Barrier organisation.
• Fixed FAQ link to Linux drag and drop issue.
• Minor grammatical updates in newsfragments README.md.

Changes

• Changed server configuration dialog initial tab to "Screens".
• Changed user configuration location on Linux from ~/.local/share to ~/.config.
