Time for another Colums for Steem update!
This update brings two new features that were sorely missing from Columns for Steem until now. Hit the refresh button in your browser if you don't see the new version.
When you hover over the top of a column, a little latch now pops up with arrows. Clicking the arrows moves the column in the direction the arrow is pointing at.
The last update added the ability to show thumbnails instead of bigger images in posts, but sometimes you want to see a picture as big as possible, so now you can click on them to show a full window preview of the picture. Click anywhere to go back.
In one of the next updates I'll also add a little bar with thumbnails at the bottom of the preview window which will show all pictures inside of a post, so you can quickly browse through all of them. This should come in handy when viewing photos for example from a photographer on Steem you like, it will turn any Steem article into a nice image gallery with one click.
When there is a new update, the app will now show a pink button in the top right, clicking on it will bring you to the Steem article describing what's new. This will hopefully lead to a few more upvotes on these posts (they usually get 4 or so) to expose Colums for Steem to more people, there still are quite few people who even know about it.
Another nice property of this is that it shows you if you're on the latest version or need to refresh your browser first, which depending on the new features I add, isn't always visible. Now when you're on the latest version, you'll know because the pink update button will be there.
Columns automatically scroll in new posts from the top, but there was a bug which would also scroll the window horizontally when there were more columns opened than could be displayed on the screen, and whenver one of the columns would auto-scroll, the window would scroll horizontally as well. That's fixed now :)
Since I've made basically no money with Columns for Steem so far, if you want to help support the continued development, I've started accepting donations via Patreon (monthly) and Buy me a coffee (one time). Your help would be much appreciated and would allow me to spend more time on Columns for Steem development, my other Steem apps and my articles here.
