Release Notes
Ingenious Search
One intelligent app for all your files.
Published entries are available to customers. In-development entries describe the current release candidate and do not promise a download or launch date.
- Ingenious Search 9.38
- Updates now save and close Search, install the signed update and reopen the app. Older installed copies are asked to close gracefully before this update replaces their files. Cancel a save prompt to keep working and update later.
- Navigation text and headings fit the space available on small screens and at larger Windows display scales. Wrapped text reflows and overflowing labels reduce their font size, restoring it when there is room.
- The feature tour and quick guides explain practical uses, specific benefits and first steps in all five languages. Compact feature-specific mascots replace large decorative graphics and also appear in the menu. Workspace screenshots are available when you choose to view them.
