  v1.5.4 Stable

  v1.5.4 — Polish and Motion (2026-05-20)

  A polish cycle: smoother theme switching, faster theme and tab
  access, and subtle hover motion. Three P3 items plus an
  accessibility toggle.

  User-visible:

  • Theme switches now crossfade smoothly over ~300 ms across every
    Hellion-rendered surface — sidebar, title, buttons, tabs,
    scrollbar, separators. The window background snaps deliberately
    so the per-window opacity override from Dalamud's pinning menu
    stays untouched.
  • New header quick-picker: a palette button left of the cog opens
    a compact popup with two sections — every built-in and custom
    theme, and every tab. The active entry carries a check glyph;
    clicking another switches without closing the popup.
  • Sidebar icons ease their opacity on hover, and card-mode message
    borders highlight per tab while the cursor is over their rows.
    Framerate-independent, so a stalled Wine frame cannot overshoot
    the animation.
  • New "Reduce motion" toggle in Theme & Layout disables the
    crossfade, the hover animations and the unread-tab pulse for
    users who prefer a static UI.

  Under the hood:

  • Two pure-helper lerp paths (ThemeAbgrCacheLerp, FrameLerp) with
    xUnit coverage in the Build Suite, plus a ColourUtil.ApplyAlpha
    alpha modulator. Two new /xlperf self-test steps pin the
    crossfade and quick-picker contracts.

  No schema bump, no migration. Migration v17 stays.

  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
