Changelog - Wrangler VFX

Version 1.0.1 Latest Public Release

✨ New Features

⚡ Improvements

Collapsible Completed Section — The Completed section is collapsed by default with a project count badge, expandable with a tap.
Bluetooth Permissions — Laser distance meter connectivity no longer restricts app availability to BLE-only devices. All iPads can now install Wrangler.

🔧 Fixes

Version 0.9.28 Build 28

✨ New Features

Characters Field — New field on the slate page for logging on-screen characters per shot. Supports multi-select, presets, CSV/PDF export, ShotGrid integration, and cloud sync.
HDRI Suffix Tags — HDRI Filename presets now act as suffix tags instead of full replacements. Add vendor presets (e.g. Pixo, ILM, Dist) and selecting one builds the filename automatically (e.g. 1A_Pixo_HDRI). Renaming or duplicating slates preserves the suffix.
