Latest version of Beta desktop wallet released to testers
https://www.reddit.com/r/nanocurrency/comments/85r6yf/nano_desktop_beta_6_released_to_beta_testers/Fixes are:
The QR code issue. This turned out to simply be a visual bug only with the displayed address missing a single character. The address generated from the QR code and the address copied to clipboard were all correct and represented the actual address of the account. In fact, there was no actual method to get the wrong account address other than physically typing it from the address displayed. Along with fixing this issue multiple tests were also added.
The "BSOD," as some users dubbed much to my chagrin. This bug prevented the account carousel from displaying at all, causing some users to believe the app the had somehow crashed. In reality, it ended up being a relatively minor bug from some invalid logic used in a currency localization library when certain NANO amounts contained decimals and no integer component. I've added several tests to ensure something similar doesn't happen again.
The "forever loading" account card. This was one of the known bugs mentioned in beta 5's release notes. This was a particularly nasty bug only because it was hard to replicate during development and as such I didn't anticipate it being particularly frustrating for users. In the wild however, it was the second most common issue reported. In the future I'll refrain from making assumptions.
The second known bug mentioned in the release notes, user interaction immediately after launching being ignored, has also been resolved. We have a much more robust mechanism to detect when the app is actually ready.
Running alongside the current wallet. A few users occasionally test the beta while the non-beta Nano wallet is open. The app was always meant to be able to run alongside the current wallet as it maintains a completely separate state, however there was a bug preventing it from becoming ready when the current wallet was running. Tangentially related to the previous bug, this bug has also been squashed.
Account address copy notification. One feature that didn't make the cut from the last beta's builds is a notification when the account address has been copied. I've added notifications, prevented transitions during copy and added tooltips and accessibility data to make it more apparent.
Animation transitions should be smoother. We're continuing to refine and optimize the transitions. In fact, we're slowly optimizing several areas of the app as they come up during testing, as there's plenty of low-hanging fruit right now in terms of optimization potential.
Many smaller fixes and improvements.
