โœจ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ“š synthona 1.2.3 ~ The File Update

It's finally here! Synthona version 1.2.3 is now available...To update, simply download the latest version, and install it! If it asks you if you want to "replace the existing version" simply say "yes". It is typically recommended that you make a backup before updating, but all your data will carry over, all you have to do is close the app, and run the installer for the new version.

Here's what's new...

  • updated how files work in Synthona, we now store "full" file paths instead of partial ones
  • added "view in file explorer" option for file nodes
  • file nodes are now "linked" instead of "uploaded" and can be launched directly from synthona
  • ability to launch various file types from synthona ranging from word documents, pdfs, mp3s, etc
  • added ability to link multiple files at once
  • added ability to replace the preview image on URL nodes
  • added "right click to launch" contextual options to URL nodes, File nodes
  • misc bug fixes and small upgrades
  • added a few new colors to the synthona text node editor
  • updated help page to reflect changes
  • added the ability to re-link files which synthona can't find
  • added version number to the "info" tab on the top-navigation-menu

In conclusion, the biggest new thing here is that Synthona is now able to do much of what your File Explorer does!!! It works a little differently of course, Synthona only knows about files you make it aware of, but any files you have linked with Synthona can be launched from Synthona and will open with whatever the default program is you've chosen for that file type!! As an example, you could add a .pdf file to Synthona and will now be able to automatically launch it in your default PDF viewer straight from Synthona by right-clicking on the node!!! 

The real benefit here is that you can create "shortcuts" from Synthona into your file-system, and also that you can now organize your creative projects directly through Synthona! Imagine for example, that you are working on a video game and managing a large number of 3D Model Files in software like Blender....You could upload the 3D model files into Synthona and Synthona should be able to automatically open those 3D models with Blender! There might be some exceptions, for example I know logic pro files don't work quite yet, but I am looking into that. 

Think of this as the first step towards more useful interactions with your files! Everything else more or less works the same way, although there are a few other little changes here and there. If you are already familiar with Synthona, the new update shouldn't be overwhelming, but you may notice little improvements. 

As always, if you have any questions, concerns, or issues, don't hesitate to reach out!

Have a nice day! โœจ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ“š
