(It's far more agressive now because of how easy accidental drags are) - Increased mouse smoothing slightly in touchscreen input mode. - Changed font side of dividers on Select Window page to make them more obvious.
Custom Apps API: - Added 'APIInit' event for web API, this is called when the API has finished injecting into the browser. - Added web API call 'SetKeyboardFocus', when enabled the keyboard can be used to type on browser instances. - Added web API call 'SetBrowserTitle', this title will show for the browser overlay in Window List. - Fixed web API call 'GetWindowTitles' not calling the callback function due to an error. - Fixed web API call 'GetOverlayBounds' not calling the callback function due to an error.
Bug Fixes: - Fixed right click binding not working. - Possibly fixed issues with overlays swapping hands when using Vive Wands. - Fixed issues with wrist overlay not working when pointing the other hand at a window. - Fixed issues with picking up windows from behind. - Fixed an issue that would cause flickering when a window was closed on the desktop whilst being capturing in VR. - Possibly fixed a crash on toggling Edit Mode. (The full fix for this crash is still W.I.P, the crash is not within OVR Toolkit but an API it uses) - Fixed an issue that would cause switching active controller to click at the position the other controller was last pointing at. - Fixed an issue that would cause overlays to render on the incorrect hand. - Fixed an issue that could stop some windows showing in the Select Window list. - Fixed an issue that would make it impossible to click a curved overlay in front of another one.

Bug fixes: - Fixed a Compact UI issue where prompts appearing would block the UI from responding to clicks. - Fixed custom keyboards appearing behind some windows. - Added missing Simulator Mode translations. - Fixed an error caused by opening the changelog viewer with no internet connection. - Fixed Spotify play/pause button not updating correctly.
Features: - Drastically improved overlay framerates, 60 FPS is 60 FPS now! (This means you need to turn down your settings if you get lag!) - Implemented 'Custom Apps' web API to create content for OVR Toolkit using HTML/PHP/JavaScript. (W.I.P, ask in Discord if you're interested in this!)
Changes: - Increased look hiding detection radius slightly to improve usability. - Increased pick up distance for windows and keyboard slightly to improve usability. - Improved logic for detecting invalid windows. (Should no longer capture Spotify's menu instead of the main window)

Features: - Added window presets. (Save and switch between 6 different savable layouts!) - Added support for blocking input to games/apps when using OVR Toolkit. (Read below!) - Updated OVR Toolkit to support 'SteamVR Input 2.0'.

How to block input to games: ( > > EXPERIMENTAL < < ) This feature is currently experimental within SteamVR so expect issues, to enable it, follow these instructions: 1. Open SteamVR Settings. 2. In the bottom left, click 'Show' for 'Advanced Settings'. 3. Enter the 'Developer' tab. 4. Enable 'Enable global input from overlays (Experimental)'. 5. Enable the setting in OVR Toolkit! This can be found in 'Global Settings', 'Show advanced settings'. 6. Enjoy input blocking, and report bugs with it. (⊙‿⊙✿)

All aboard the less eye strain hype-train!) - Added 'Join Discord' message to Task installer in the case that it fails to install correctly or launch OVR Toolkit. - Added custom background image for Compact UI.

(Give it a try before you turn it off!) - Fixed hotkey-spawned windows appearing at incorrect position when the UI isn't in the default position. - Fixed OVR Toolkit spamming the log file when SteamVR is shutting down, should now cleanly exit.

Time to start work on custom app support! Wooo. join our Discord to keep up to date with that! http://discord.gg/rGWjyCz
21-01-2020 - Added Simulator Mode. (First version) - Improved Edit Mode grip-toggle combination timing. (Can press grips faster now) - Improved how Edit Mode grip-toggle is timed. (Low framerate should no longer make it harder to open the menu) - Improved issues with 'Vive Wand hand switching'. (Should now more reliably switch hands when controllers were turned off at program start) - Improved toggling Edit Mode with Oculus Touch controllers.
Simulator Mode adds: - Support for using OVR Toolkit with no connected controllers. - Head gaze mouse movement on windows. - Keyboard binds for left and right click, as well as for scrolling. - New Simulator Mode 'Edit Mode' UI that's interactable with head gaze. - Ability to view the standing play 'Edit Mode' UI and interact with it with head gaze for more advanced settings/custom apps in the future. - Window movement with keyboard keys.
How to use Simulator Mode: It will automatically enable when no controllers are turned on, press the keyboard Edit Mode bind (F8 by default) to open the menu. - To move windows, click the move window button under Window Settings in the simulator mode UI. This is togglable to avoid accidentally moving windows. - To avoid accidental inputs to words, click the block input button (Keyboard icon with X above it), this will block clicks, scrolling, and head gaze mouse movement on windows.
Sorry for this took so long! Please report issues with Simulator Mode, keep in mind this is the first release of it too! ːsteamhappyː
