Changelog of the Burn-My-Windows Extension

Burn My Window 6

Release Date: 2022-01-02

Fixes

• Removed a debug log message.

Burn My Window 5

Release Date: 2022-01-02

New Features

• Added a new ridiculous close-animation: the T-Rex-Attack!
• Added a new simple close-animation: the TV-Effect!
• Added a menu to the preferences dialog with links for bug reporting and donations.

Other Enhancements

• The fire shader now uses a smoothstep to make it less blocky.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug which messed up the overview of GNOME Shell 3.36.

Burn My Window 4

Release Date: 2021-12-25

New Features

• Added a new Matrix shader which dissolves your windows in a shower of green letters. You can switch between the fire and the matrix shader in the settings. Sadly, this effect cannot be available under GNOME 3.3x as it was apparently impossible to set textures for a Clutter.ShaderEffect in GJS back then.
• Added a setting to apply the animation also for closing dialog windows.

Other Enhancements

• Refactored the code a lot to make it easier to add new shader effects in the future.
• Tweaked timing of the fire shader. Previously, the fire became invisible quite quickly. Due to this new animation timing, the default animation time has been reduced to 1500 ms.

New Features
