Stay 1.1.4 released

August 23, 2011

Version 1.1.4 of Stay is now available.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a crash that could occur when deleting stored windows when running Stay on Lion.
• Fixed other bugs related to deleting stored windows.
• The window linking hot key now works properly.
• Stay no longer resets the Display Menu hot key setting on quit.
• Improved the reliability of restoring windows in certain cases.

This is predominantly a maintenance release, though it does bring one new “feature”, in that Stay has been submitted to Apple for inclusion in the Mac App Store. It’s currently awaiting approval; I’ll post again when it’s available.

The bad news is, due to Apple’s policy of not allowing apps that make use of private APIs, the App Store version of Stay does not include support for Spaces.

The good news is, if you do need Spaces support but would prefer to buy Stay via the App Store, the direct download version of Stay can be registered using your App Store receipt; all you have to do is ensure that you run the App Store version once before switching to the direct download version.

It’s not an ideal situation, but given the restrictions Apple has put in place, it’s about the best of the available compromises. And of course, Stay remains available for purchase from Cordless Dog directly.
