DroneDie for iOS — v1.0.5
UI:
- Preset bar is now always visible. The preset/menu bar is fixed at the top of the interface and can no longer be hidden by the zoomed UI — even while pinch-zooming and panning, it stays on top and fully tappable.
- Fixed unresponsive controls. Preset dropdowns, the MENU button, and other top-bar items are now reliably tappable (they were previously scrolled off-screen / covered when the UI was zoomed).
- Larger, touch-friendly top controls. The preset/menu bar and its buttons are bigger and easier to hit on iOS.
- Bigger small knobs. Clock Sync, Filter CV In, and Audio In have been enlarged so they're usable by touch.
- Larger menus. Preset menus, preset sub-menus, and the MENU popup now use a bigger font (22pt) and taller, finger-friendly rows (44px), consistent between main menus and sub-menus.
- Pinch-to-zoom improvements
- Multitouch on controls now works. Touches that start on a knob, switch, footswitch, or other control are excluded from the pinch gesture, so you can adjust two controls at once.
- No more accidental zoom. The UI no longer zooms when you grab a second control while adjusting a knob.
- Pinch-to-zoom and panning are confined to the synth area below the fixed preset bar.
- Controls no longer get stuck after a two-finger gesture.
- Preset bar redesigned for iPhone: compact buttons, readable preset name, meters kept.
- Top bar now clears the Dynamic Island.
AUv3:
- Fixed no sound when used as an AUv3 instrument in GarageBand/Logic.
- Preset combo and MENU now open correctly inside the plugin (AUv3).
- Save/Delete preset dialogs no longer freeze the interface.
