What's new in v1.2.6
4 June 2026
Fixed
- White screen on app launch: removed `--disable-accelerated-video-decode` and `--in-process-gpu` flags which corrupt the GPU compositor in Electron 42 / Chromium 130+ when sandbox mode is active
- Network error on launch now auto-retries (2s, 4s, 6s… up to 15s) instead of showing a permanent white screen
- macOS app icon now has correct dark (#09090B) background with the Taplo logo — macOS CI runner does not ship ImageMagick so a pure Python3 fallback compositor (`make-icon-bg.py`) is used instead; no extra CI dependencies needed
- Installer icon (macOS .dmg, Windows .exe) also updated to dark-background logo
