We've added the ability to lock Components on the canvas, making it easier to manage complex Shards with many elements.

• Lock / unlock individual Components from the context menu
• Lock / unlock individual Components from the properties inspector panel
• Automatically lock all Components added to the canvas (can be toggle on or off)
• Hold ALT to move a locked Component

As always, we're keen to hear your feedback.

A new device connection method has been added, which should reduce the time it takes to connect to GG from your phone or tablet.

As part of ongoing performance enhancements, a new and optimised component rendering method has been added. This should make Shards feel snappier and more responsive. 

Three new component types have been added to our Beta Group.

WebEmbed

This component allows you to add a snippet / iFrame of almost any website to a Shard. Anything from maps, to-do lists, quest guides, and more.

Image

An easy way to add an image from any URL, great for backgrounds, custom button panels, or other decorations. 

Clock

Add a customisable clock to any Shard. Set the style, colours, background, and even timezone.

Beta 4.0.5 has been released.

Update notes:

• Implemented new code framework
• Minor updates to Home screen
• Added "Check for updates" button to Settings
• Removed legacy Elite Dangerous settings
• Various back-end changes in preparation for new features in coming Beta releases

Testing of the new GameGlass Hub has begun!

We have a long list of new features in development - from small changes to transformative new game experiences. Testing them to make sure they're stable, bug-free, and as polished as possible for our community is important.

Your input and feedback is a critical part of this. Thank you for helping.

We're kicking things off with a new version of the GameGlass desktop app.

It contains no new features, but implements a new code framework that is required for everything that follows.
