  • Selection border now scales proportionally to the display DPI
  • Fixed selection position when moving it to a display with a different DPI
• Reduced default selection border width from 4 to 3 pixels

Update 2022-07-17 21:39:11+0300: The Windows installer was updated to fix long startup time and high drive load.

• Added system tray icon
• Enabled high DPI support in Qt 5
• Languages:
  • All names are now inverted, e.g. "Creole, Haitian" instead of "Haitian Creole"
  • Fixed missing name for jpn_vert
  • jpn is no longer identified as vertical
  • Fixed missing "l" in "Cyrillic"
• Added \ to the list of keys for the hotkey
• If there are multiple texts in the recognition queue, "Add text to history" and "Run executable" actions now process each text as it arrives instead of waiting for the entire chain
• Non-empty recognized text no longer has a trailing newline
• History:
  • Removed "Wrap words" checkbox (the history_wrap_words option in settings.cfg is still available)
  • Recognized text is now immediately added to the history file to minimize possible data loss in case of abnormal program termination
  • Font size is now taken from system settings. This also fixes zooming text with Control + mouse wheel
  • HTML export:
    • " and ' are no longer replaced by &quot and &apos
    • CSS: Reduced left text margin from 2 to 1 em and added 1 em right margin
  • "Export history" file dialog now uses "History" as the default file name instead of leaving it empty
  • "Export history" file dialog now remembers the file name until you close the program
  • "Export history" file dialog is now native when using Qt 4
• Unix:
  • Program is now relocatable, e.g. it now loads resources from paths relative to the location of the executable, rather than from absolute paths based on the installation prefix
  • Moved from "Utility" to "Graphics" menu to comply with the freedesktop.org standard
• X11:
  • "Copy to clipboard" no longer sets text to the PRIMARY clipboard
  • Fixed taking images in 30-bit depth
  • Fixed selection appearing behind newly opened windows in qtile WM
• Windows:
  • Installer now allows local installation, e.g. for users without administrator rights
  • Tesseract language files are now stored in "C:\Users\(your name)\AppData\Local\dpscreenocr\tesseract_5_data"
  • Enabled native interface theme
  • App now shows progress in the background of the taskbar button
  • Updated Tesseract to 5.2.0
  • (Windows 10 version 1903 and newer) Added a workaround for Tesseract that fixes an empty language list when the application resides in a path containing Unicode symbols not supported by the current code page
  • Default history export path is now the user's home directory instead of the directory of the executable
  • "Run executable" no longer opens Explorer if the path is empty
  • "Run executable" no longer executes a batch file if its name has trailing spaces or upper-case characters in the extension
• settings.cfg:
  • New options:
    • ui_tray_icon_visible
    • ui_window_minimize_on_start
    • ui_window_minimize_to_tray
  • Removed options:
    • action_run_executable_wait_to_complete; waiting is now always enabled
    • ocr_dump_debug_image was replaced by the DPSO_DUMP_DEBUG_IMAGE environment variable
    • ui_native_file_dialogs
  • Leading and trailing double quotes are no longer treated especially; if you need to preserve leading and trailing spaces, wrap the value in \ instead of double quotes. This change is not backward compatible with version 1.0, but in practice it will only affect the action_copy_to_clipboard_text_separator option.

  • Removed "cpack -G DEB" support
  • Removed "cpack -G NSIS" support in favor of Inno Setup
  • Windows DLLs are now collected automatically when using CMake >= 3.16
