-- **Regex-Filter pro Tab.** Ein Tab kann jetzt zusätzlich zum Kanal-Filter einen regulären Ausdruck tragen und damit gezielt nur Nachrichten mit einem bestimmten Schlüsselwort sammeln. Einstellbar in den Tab-Einstellungen.
+- **Settings komplett neu strukturiert** — die zehn alten Tabs sind auf sieben zusammengefasst (Allgemein, Aussehen, Chat, Fenster, Kanäle, Daten & Privatsphäre, Über). Jeder Tab gliedert sich jetzt in Sektionen, die beim Reingehen eingeklappt sind. Controls innerhalb einer Sektion sind nach Typ gruppiert. Tabs-Tab im Per-Tab-Panel ebenfalls in Sub-Sektionen aufgeteilt.
-- **Warnung vor Plugin-Zeichen.** Enthält eine zu sendende Nachricht Symbole, die nur mit HellionChat oder einem ähnlichen Plugin korrekt erscheinen, warnt das Plugin vorab. Ein zweites Enter sendet trotzdem. Abschaltbar in den Einstellungen unter Chat.
+- **Absender-Namen anpassbar** — neue Optionen in Chat → Nachrichten für das Namensformat (Voll / Vorname / Initialen) und das Welt-Suffix (Nie / Andere Welten / Immer).
-- **Namens-Darstellung.** Im Chat-Log lässt sich jetzt steuern, wann der Heimatwelt-Name an einen Spielernamen angehängt wird und ob der volle Name, nur der Vorname oder Initialen erscheinen.
+- **Pre-Send-Warnung für Plugin-Symbole** — beim Senden einer Nachricht mit Symbolen, die nur HellionChat-User sehen, kommt eine Warnung. Verhindert leere Kästchen bei anderen.
-- **Getrennte Deckkraft.** Das Haupt-Chat-Fenster hat jetzt einen eigenen Deckkraft-Wert für den nicht fokussierten Zustand und kann so beim Spielen dezent in den Hintergrund treten.
+- **Getrennte Fenster-Deckkraft** — Aktiv vs. Inaktiv. Aktiv wie bisher; Inaktiv über einen zweiten Slider unter Aussehen → Fenster-Stil.
-- **Lautstärke-Regler.** Die drei mitgelieferten Custom-Sounds haben einen Lautstärke-Schieberegler bekommen, in den Einstellungen unter Allgemein.
+- **Lautstärke für eigene Notification-Sounds** — Slider in Allgemein → Sound, im Kanäle-Tab pro Tab nochmal angezeigt. Wirkt nur auf die drei mitgelieferten Custom-Sounds, die 16 Game-Sounds bleiben unverändert.
-- Fünf Backlog-Items, Schema-Bump auf v19 (rein additiv). Zweite Hälfte des zweiteiligen Backlog-Cleanup-Pass. Drei Items wurden gestrichen (Details in den Cycle-Notes).
+- **Regex-Filter pro Tab gestrichen** — kurz dabei, dann verworfen: der eingebaute FFXIV-Blackword-Filter deckt das ab.
+- **Lokalisierung erweitert** — neue Section-Titel und v1.5.6-Controls in allen 24 Sprachen, maschinell übersetzt. Native-Review läuft weiter über den Hellion Forge Discord.

-    A backlog-sync cycle: filter and notification items plus polish.

-
+    - Plugin-only symbols now show a pre-send warning so other players do not get empty boxes (Chat → Messages → "Warn before sending plugin-only symbols").
-    User-visible:

-    - The main chat window now has a separate opacity value for when
