• Add “Select all” mouse action to bundles (shown on hovering over the bundle icon) to go along with the already support keyboard shortcut (X or Spacebar)

Improvements

• Hover actions go away (v3.4.5): The issue with hover actions not going away turned out to be a Gmail bug. I’ve added more to override the bug and will keep an eye out for Gmail fixing it so I can remove my patch.

• Prevent line wrapping in list in Vertical Reading Pane when using Simplify’s “Show full date & time” option [open pref]

• Maintain scrollbar gutter for tabbed inbox and in Vertical Reading Pane so the inbox tabs align with the list and you can resize the list in reading pane

• Don’t override ⌘C / Ctrl+C to copy a private link to the message when the message has an iframe in it (I can’t detect text is selected which means I may be breaking copy action). I still support copying the link when there is an iframe if you press the shortcut twice in a row within 4 seconds (hinted in the error message on first press)

• Ignore Inbox, Trash, and Muted labels when bundling in all supported languages, not just in English

• Change how I handle inline image attributes and max-width images to reduce issues when there is a conflict or an image is squeezed b/c of a 100% width table column

• Always hide the account hover id card, not just when the app menu is open

• Support hiding new button to Show Gemini summary in search results [open pref] (they used to just show the summary, now you have to click a button)

• Adjust spacing and position of buttons in app menu bar and prevent overlap with reading pane toggle

• Totally re-wrote the function to remove extra   which can prevent line wraps where you expect them (Gmail issue). New function does a better job of never moving the cursor position when this is run on switching browser tabs away and back. This is almost good enough to be enabled by default. [open pref]

• Support Gemini’s side pane variable width

Fixes

• Update detection of Gemini side pane open/close state

• Give Gemini AI overview a background color in Gmail themes

• Rename some class names to avoid conflicting with other extensions

• “Disable” action was not working on default bookmarks with a space in the name when used from the bookmark menu in the nav

• “Archive all” action had weird work around that was causing issues; I fixed waiting for the archive button being actually active and remove the weird work around

• Fix the icons being cut off in the reply type menu in compose

• Fix bug for fr-CA that was preventing pause inbox from working in July (wrong abbreviation)

• Add white border around pinned send bar (bottom of inline reply) when in dark mode to match the border around the rest of the reply

• Gmail changed how it lays out the inbox tabs and I can no longer detect when they are too small and switch to icons instead of text labels. This small patch will allow the tabs to be narrower so you can see them all when your list pane is narrow. I hope to improve on this in future updates.

• If the nav is minimized and you start dragging a message, peek the nav so you can drop it on a label

• Use the new Gmail favicon when you turn off custom favicons

• Round the borders on nav labels when the nav is minimized

Fixes

• Fix drag-message observer to not hide nav when dragging a message

• Don’t open the message if you cancel dragging a message by dropping it on itself
