MarsEdit 4.6.1: Finessing Micro.blog Title Visibility

September 29th, 2022

MarsEdit 4.6.1 is now available on the MarsEdit site and on the Mac App Store.

This minor update include a few bug fixes and a change, probably most useful to Micro.blog users, to control whether the post editor’s title field is automatically hidden and shown, or not.

By default, MarsEdit mimicks Micro.blog’s own native behavior of hiding the title field until a post is longer than 280 characterrs. With a new per-blog setting (under Editing -> Post Editor Defaults) you can change the behavior from automatically showing & hiding, to always defaulting to visible or hidden.

  • A new per-blog setting controls whether the Title Field is shown and hidden automatically
  • Fix an issue that caused the scroller for “Always Show Scroll Bar” to appear white in Dark Mode
  • Prevent a scenario that could cause the preview window to remain visible after the last document is closed
  • Fix a line-wrapping issue in the document status bar area when a window was made very small
