LanSend 26.08

minor August 30, 2026

Changed 6

The application log lists the newest entries first.
Status colors in the application log are easier to read on both light and dark themes.
The selection highlight in the application log is lighter, so the text under it stays readable.
Searching the message history or the application log marks every match inside the rows it finds, in a color that suits the current theme.
Dialog windows use the same margins throughout the program, so the spacing no longer changes from one dialog to the next.
Switching the interface language no longer fills the application log with tracing messages at the Debug level.

After sending, the application log reports how many recipients received the message and how many could not be reached. It previously reported that the message reached everyone.
LanSend reopens maximized if you closed it maximized.
A window left in the top-left corner of the screen reopens there instead of jumping back to the center.
A window saved on a monitor that is no longer connected, or at a screen resolution that has since become smaller, reopens on screen instead of outside it.
The main window no longer shows blank white panels for a moment while it finishes drawing at startup.
Fixed a crash that could happen when switching the theme from the View menu or from Preferences.
Errors that LanSend recovers from now reach the application log. They previously appeared only in a message box and left no trace in the log.
Checking computer status over a TCP connection returns as soon as the computer refuses the port, instead of waiting out the full timeout. Computers that silently drop the connection, which is what Windows does by default, still take the full timeout.
The connection check timeout and the thread count in Preferences no longer accept 0, which was accepted and then silently used as 1.
A damaged settings file no longer leaves the message type, session scope, or auto-close boxes blank at startup. Values outside the allowed range are corrected when they are read.
