Cygnus Release Notes
Cygnus 1.0.4 (May 31, 2026)
The following functionality has been added or enhanced:
• Keyboard Navigation: Improved keyboard navigation behaviour when tabbing from one control to another for mutliple control types.
• Spacebar Toggle: When one or more rows are selected (highlighted) in a list of selectable items (e.g. list of bodies), pressing the spacebar will now toggle the checkbox state.
• Metrics List Keyboard Behaviour: The selectable Body Metrics and Aspect Metrics lists now share the same keyboard behaviour as the selectable bodies list: tabbing in highlights the focused row, Space toggles the highlighted rows, and toggling a row's checkbox or running Select / Deselect from the context menu no longer drops focus to the main menu.
• System Updates: All software components have been updated to the latest versions.
The following bugs were fixed:
• Location Editor: Fixed a bug that put the first row of the location editor into edit mode when the user initially clicked on the row to select it.
• Row Highlight: Fixed a bug where tabbing onto a selectable bodies list (or other selectable items list) left the focused row unhighlighted until the user pressed an arrow key.
• Recent Files: Fixed a bug that left the application in an unusable state when opening a workspace from the Recent Files menu whose containing folder no longer exists.
Cygnus 1.0.3 (April 7, 2026)
