• Enhancements - Added support of a detachable mini player window. Just drag & drop the status menu popup window away from the status menu to a desired position. You can set several properties of the detached window in the app preferences like its style, transparency, auto hiding behavior, a dedicated hotkey, etc... You can shrink it for a really small size and e.g. can use as a stylish active track changed notification window or a floating iTunes search window. - Style of the lyrics and the new detachable status menu window is now user configurable, you can select either the normal NSPanel style or the HUD panel style, HUD panels have a different darker look by default and behaves like accessory or tool windows. Setting both windows to HUD style and closing all other application windows will send Smart Tunes to the background (will reside only in the macOS status menu), keeps the two window above other windows and allows handy interactions with them whilst not switching away from the active application you work with currently. - Added a workaround allows detecting EarPods clicks and prevents receiving duplicated events from the device that led an immediate track Stop after Start or Stop after Start depending on the actual iTunes player state. • Bug Fixes - Fixed possible multiple installation of global keyboard event handler that could render the app and iTunes un-responsible

• Bug Fixes - Fixed a crash during search result displaying

• Enhancements - Added ability to change the current track playing position from the mini player by just clicking and/or dragging with the mouse on the position indicator - You can switch now between displaying the elapsed or the remaining time in the mini player, just double click the corresponding actual time label

• Bug Fixes - Added more efforts to prevent jumping the right aligned mini player popover window on track change - Shuffle and repeat buttons of the mini player could became invisible - Popover window width resized according to its content size to always fit but never shrunk anymore till app restart - Fixed keyboard navigation in mini player search, now you can use the standard navigation keys, tab, up and down arrows, etc. to navigate in the search result list (HINT: Use Down key to select the first search result item, Enter to play the selected search result track or Option+Enter to open it in iTunes) - Fixed iTunes playing state restoration in the case when iTunes is stopped/started externally or is already running at Smart Tunes startup - Fixed the issue that Remaining Time stopped updating at various setting changes • Enhancements - Started to use iTunes Library Framework that significantly increased the search time, search functionality became really usable even with larger iTunes libraries - Thanks to iTunes Library Framework now you can search even if iTunes is not running - Added option to rewind the current track to the beginning, just hold Option key down whilst pressing the “Back” media key or the mini player “Rewind” button, this can be useful if you have set iTunes to remember the play positions in the tracks as in that case the Rewind alone will not jump to the beginning of the given track (NOTE: Works only if the “Stick media keys to iTunes exclusively” option turned on!) - Added cover image search option of the currently played track’s album, you can also assign a global hotkey to trigger it immediately from anywhere - Added copy/paste and drag&drop support on mini player artwork image and application status menu item, also macOS services items, to replace the cover image of the currently played track or the whole album of the given track based on a selected image or the clipboard content (HINT: Keeping Option button pressed during drag&drop of an image onto the application status menu item or invocation of any of the provided macOS services will replace the cover image for the entire album of the currently played track !!!) (NOTE: Because lack of a reliable, officially supported solution this functionality disabled currently for tracks managed by a cloud based service, like iTunes Match, modifying the artwork images is enabled only for locally stored iTunes track items!) - Added mouse double click handling for mini player search result list elements, use double click to play the clicked track or Option+double click to open it in iTunes • Changes - Minimum supported macOS version set to 10.13 High Sierra as that is the first OS version supports iTunes Library Framework
