4.0.0 Content Blocking Memory
Unblocked content can now be remembered (issue #61)
It is now possible, to unblock images permanently, meaning that media doesn't need to be unblocked again after restarting the application.
Clicking on a blocked image opens now a menu:
The blocked content banner has now a button for unblocking, that opens also a menu on clicking:
Clicking on "Temporary" behaves like clicking on the banner itself in previous versions.
Clicking on "Permanent" opens a dialog, allowing to select, which content shall stay unblocked:
Single window position, independent of the document (issue #67)
The application settings have now an option for remembering the window position:
- "Remember for each document" (default, as previous versions): Remembers the window position for each document
- "Remember single position": The application opens the window always at the last previously opened position, independently of the opened document
Bugfixes

<!-- Already supported previously -->
<a id="anchor-with-id"></a>you can use
<!-- Now supported, but deprecated in HTML standard -->
<a name="anchor-with-id"></a>3.2.0 Bugfixes and minor UI additions
Note: The file mdview-3.2.0-x64.exe was marked as malicious on VirusTotal by "Bkav Pro" as "W32.AIDetectMalware".
New menu entry "Window"
Currently, it isn't of much use under Windows, but it doesn't hurt either. It was done for porting the application to macOS.
New CLI options
The application has two new command line switches for testing and diagnosis purposes:
--app-path: Outputs the path to the installation directory and exits immediately--data-path: Outputs the path to the data directory (where besides other thinks, the settings are stored) and exist immediately
The Windows command line behaves weirdly when invoking the application. To workaround this, a batch file mdview-cli.cmd was added to the installation directory.
