Overview

This release focuses on graph usability improvements, performance optimizations, and UI enhancements based on community feedback.

New Features

Graph Screen Space Optimization 📊

• Removed Unnecessary Padding: Eliminated excessive padding and card wrappers around graphs to maximize screen real estate
• Compact Layout: Graphs now use space more efficiently, allowing more data to be visible at once

Frequency Locking 🔒

• Click to Lock: Click anywhere on a graph to lock the cursor at that frequency
• Visual Indicator: Locked frequency is clearly indicated with a lock icon and Hz value
• Remember Position: When the mouse leaves the graph, the cursor position is remembered and remains visible
• Easy Unlock: Click the 'X' button to unlock and return to free cursor movement
• Works in All Views: Frequency locking is available in both compact and expanded graph views

Improved Graph Legend 📈

• Integrated Live Values: Replaced floating tooltips with integrated legend display
• Always Visible: Legend shows live values at all times, reducing visual clutter
• Better Performance: Removed tooltip hover calculations that were causing lag
• Compact Mode: Two-column layout in compact mode, expanding to more columns when space allows

EQ Editing Improvements 🎛️

• Per-Graph EQ Editing: EQ edit mode now applies only to the selected graph, not all graphs
• Context Menu Control: EQ context menus (for adding filters and parametric EQ) only appear when in EQ edit mode
• Clearer State: EQ button shows on all graphs that support EQ, making it clear which graphs can have EQ applied

Max SPL Graph Enhancements 🔊

• Thermal and Mechanical Limits Toggle: Added "Limits" button to show thermal and Xmax (mechanical) limits
• Limit Visualization: Displays the non-constraining limit as a dashed line (e.g., if mechanical is limiting, shows thermal limit as dotted)
• Detailed Legend Information: When limits are enabled, legend shows:
  • Thermal limit (THERM) with dashed line indicator
  • Xmax limit (XMAX) with dashed line indicator
  • Excursion: X/Ymm (Z%) format showing excursion at limit vs driver Xmax
  • Power: X/Y W (Z%) format showing power at limit vs driver Pe
• All limit information updates dynamically as you hover or lock the cursor at different frequencies

Improvements

Performance ⚡

• Faster Animations: Graph animations now run 2.5x faster for more responsive interactions
• Optimized Rendering: Improved graph rendering performance, especially in compact mode
• Reduced Re-renders: Better memoization and state management to prevent unnecessary re-renders

Visual Enhancements 🎨

• Dark Mode Graph Lines: Improved grid line visibility in dark mode for better readability
• Input Power Visibility: Power input moved to a pinned bottom bar with improved visibility and better alignment
• Better Contrast: Enhanced visual contrast across all graph elements

Bug Fixes

• Fixed React Render Error: Resolved "Cannot update a component while rendering a different component" error in EQ overlay system by deferring state updates to avoid render-phase updates
