• #842 Pot Browser: Added more options to configure when to display FX windows and when to hide them
• #842 Pot Browser: Added preset context menu action "Pre-play" (This is fun! It's like a preview on steroids. Pot Browser will load the preview into RS5k sampler, making it playable on your keyboard. So you can play the sound in a lower quality without actually loading the preset. Useful if loading a preset is slow and you want to get a first impression before loading it. Or use it in creative ways!)
• #842 Pot Browser: Improved UI a bit (show notifications a bit longer, better text formatting and error messages, better responsiveness, avoid empty "round dot" context menu)
• #842 Pot Browser: Fixed VST2 plug-ins with negative magic number not showing up (e.g. "Op-X Pro II")

v2.14.3

• #791 Fixed compatibility with Windows 7/8 (this time really ... well, hopefully, we'll see)

v2.14.2

• Internal change: Improved clip engine
• Internal change: Updated server libraries
• Improved server start/stop behavior (allow immediate server stop without restart, don't wait for Playtime App to close its connection)
• Improved confusing server context menu that was showing server state as enabled even the server failed to start
• #787 Fixed volume/pan/width control performance issue in latest REAPER versions (by not writing undo point for each little change)
• #780 Fixed failing ReaLearn upgrade (via ReaPack) while ReaLearn still running
• #791 Fixed compatibility with Windows 7/8 (hopefully, we'll see)
• #779 Fixed saving/restoring of controller compartment parameters (was working only for main compartment parameters so far)
• #797 Fixed Linux installation instructions by adding requirement to install libxdo

v2.14.0

• #529 Added dynamic track expression variables "instance_track_tcp_index" and "instance_track_mcp_index"
• #747 Added menu and help buttons to the header panel
• #224 Added previous/next buttons to the mapping panel (for navigating in the list of mappings that's currently visible in the main panel)
• #685 Added more comfortable editing for OSC feedback arguments and help button
• #729 Added Lua snippet versioning (from now on, all Lua exports from ReaLearn will contain the ReaLearn version number; used for getting version conflict warnings on import and applying migration logic; in your own Lua code, you should make sure it's set from now on ... removing it will make ReaLearn think that it's an old preset and then it might apply some migration logic that you don't want)
• #485 Added new takeover mode "Pickup (tolerant)" (prevents jumps but also makes extra sure the target doesn't get stuck, in addition to below mdmayfield improvements)
• #756 Added new text feedback placeholder "target.width.mcu" to target "Track: Set stereo width" for pretty display of width value
• #221 Added new experimental "Pot" targets for preset browsing in a large pot of presets (first supported preset database: Komplete NKS, see dedicated REAPER forum thread for details)
• #713 Added new feedback-only source "Speech" for speaking out numeric or text feedback via Windows/macOS built-in text-to-speech engine (no Linux yet, sorry)
• #529 Added new track selectors that respect track visibility in TCP or MCP
• #529 Added new dynamic track variables "selected_track_tcp_index" and "selected_track_mcp_index"
• #529 Added new options to target "Project: Navigate within tracks" to respect visibility in TCP or MCP
• #698 Added fancy control transformation editor with visual preview of curve/transition (Windows/macOS only for now)
• #605 Added control transformation template facility (including some first templates, hard-coded, Windows/macOS only for now)
• #45 Added option to respect/ignore track grouping to supported track targets
• #45 Added option to enable/disable selection ganging to supported track targets
• #691 Added target control information to mapping panel (Very useful to understand what's going on! For real-time-MIDI-controlled mappings, this only works if target control logging is enabled.)
• #686 Added new target "Global: Mouse" to control the mouse (one use case is to control the FX parameter which is currently under the mouse cursor)
• #555 Added possibility to save compartment notes (they are also saved with compartment presets)
• #679 Added multi-line editing and error reporting for EEL transformation formulas
• #680 Added possibility to force or prevent smooth seek in seek and marker/region targets
• #670 Added display type "Studiologic SL Keyboard display" for showing arbitrary text on the keyboard (tested with SL88)
• #660 Added display types "X-Touch Mackie LCD" and "X-Touch Mackie LCD XT" for enabling LCD color support when certain X-Touch devices are in MCU mode
• #657 Added various options to decide whether to keep ReaLearn active if its project tab is in the background (accessible via right-click menu)
• #627 Added option to play sound when target has been invoked successfully ("Beep on success" checkbox at the bottom left of the mapping panel, great for trigger-like targets such as saving a snapshot)
• #648 Added target "Track: Enable/disable parent send" (great for MIDI routing in the context of song switching)
• #658 Added option to prevent resetting feedback when releasing sources (accessible via right-click menu, good for using REAPER/ReaLearn as a remote control for hardware devices)
• #635 Added stop function to be used in control transformation formulas to emit a target value and stop the currently running transition at once
• #677 Added context menu entry "Open preset folder"
• Added "Retrigger" option to target "FX parameter: Set value" (sets parameter even if it already has desired value)
• #764 Improved usability by allowing raw MIDI pattern (e.g. sysex) to be edited in separate editor window which also indicates whether the pattern is valid (both in source and target)
• #485 Improved takeover modes substantially by applying the "mdmayfield improvements": No more backwards jumps! Much less getting-stuck situations! Ability to choose a fixed default for jump max! (Thanks a lot to mdmayfield who made the initial contribution!)
• #485 Improved usability by removing "Jump min/max" settings and introducing an "Off" mode instead (the value for jump max is now an implementation detail; custom min/max values are still supported but only for old presets to ensure backward compatibility; one can use a value sequence as alternative to jump min)
• #408 Improved auto-load mode by automagically falling back to memorized mappings when FX loses focus (users will love this because it's much more intuitive than "Make instance superior", which still has its uses though in more complex scenarios where you want multiple instances)
• #721 Improved wording by consistently using "Browse ..." instead of "Navigate within ..." or "Cycle through ..."
• #721 Improved wording by using less technical object selector names (e.g. "Particular" instead of "By ID")
• #664 Improved usability by displaying in status bar if control/feedback globally off (don't show by greying out mapping rows anymore)
• #700 Improved usability by insisting on keyboard focus, even if 'Send all keyboard focus to plug-in' is disabled
• #692 Improved target-based conditional activation by listening to target activation/deactivation as well
• #695 Improved usability by marking targets that support MIDI real-time control (because MIDI real-time control has a few restrictions)
• #689 Improved source "MIDI script" when used with Lua language by making color information available (allows users to provide support for arbitrary MIDI color LEDs/displays, in addition to the built-in ones)
• Improved target logging by including target control errors and other information
• Improved usability by making it possible to copy and paste the activation condition of a mapping
• #675 Improved preset loading by supporting placing preset files in sub directories (1 level, ATTENTION: The parent directory will become part of the preset ID, so don't move existing presets!)
• #674 Improved preset loading by supporting symlinked preset files
• #630 Improved target "ReaLearn: Load mapping snapshot" by respecting the "Reverse" checkbox when loading the default value (great for changing the perspective when it comes to on/off targets)
• #639 Improved usability of the snapshot targets by displaying the snapshot ID in the row label
• #666 Improved usability of source "ReaLearn parameter" by displaying the parameter index in the row label
• #626 Improved usability of source "ReaLearn parameter" by making the parameter learnable
• #671 Improved usability by making text feedback available with dummy target (great for sending just some constant text or using placeholders that don't need target context)
• #629 Improved usability by displaying session ID in the status bar (should help detecting duplicate IDs, which can be useful e.g. when using projection)
• #628 Improved target "ReaLearn: Load mapping snapshot" by enabling...
