I am aware of the missing Alt+Tab application switching and I’d like to assure you that it will be implemented/completed very soon. It is one more gap to fill. I already have the code throughout the project. It is a matter of consolidating it together into a new application. For example: the dashboard already shows …
PipeWire support is now complete and it works even better than the original Pulse Audio support implementation. Below, I have uploaded three screenshots of various themes along with the PipeWire sinks and sources displayed. Like I said, for this one, I had to change distros but for the sake of the project’s development, now I …

I am happy to let you know that the support for PipeWire Audio is nearly complete and I am typing this post after successful tests.

For the upcoming Pilot 9E subsequent release my focal point is performance and more bug fixes (and potentially more orbitiny-screenshot-grabber features). Having said that, here is what’s been done so far. Fixed slow response and UI freezing when the Delete key is pressed to clear selected items in the internal Clipboard Manager. This eventually will …
I have uploaded another subsequent release – Pilot 9D. This release features the addition of the snipping capability I mentioned previously but also an unexpected and a surprising bug in the orbitiny-screen-config tool. Full details are right below. Download details: here. New: Added a snipping functionality to orbitiny-screenshot-grabber. To use it, pass the -s or …

In the …
