July 4th, 2013 (Stylizer 5.1.13.704)

May 30th, 2013 (Stylizer 5.1.13.530—Windows Only)

• Fixed: (Regression from 5.1.13.523) Key strokes which required the AltGr key to be pressed on non-US keyboard layouts are now working correctly again.

May 29th, 2013 (Stylizer 5.1.13.529)

• Fixed: @import rules now validate when a media type is specified.

May 23rd, 2013 (Stylizer 5.1.13.523)

• New: Support for media queries which contain only an expression and are not prefixed with "only", "not" or a media type.
• New: Support for CSS3 units dpi, dpcm, dppx, hz, khz, ms, s, vh, vw, vmax, vmin.
• Improved: Rule-level comments are now indented when saved.
• Improved: Changed the way rules containing media-querying properties save and load. Details
• Improved: Bullseye: Now all properties not being displayed in real-time preview are striken out as well as overridden CSS properties. This includes properties restricted to a non-passing media query and vendor-specific extension properties (i.e. -moz prefixed properties are striken out for Safari).
• Fixed: In the save dialog, pressing Enter after typing a file name now accepts and saves.
• Fixed: Fractional CSS values which omit the leading zero (i.e. ".5in") now validate.
• Fixed: (OS X) Standard editing keyboard shortcuts: Home/Command+Left moves the caret to the start of a cell and Home/Command+Right moves to the end; Option+Left and Option+Right navigate between words.
• Fixed: (OS X) Pressing shortcut keys for disabled commands (Command+Z, Command+V etc) would "type" the letter into the grid.
• Fixed: (OS X) Text in the code grid no longer scrolls unnecessarily when switching into edit mode.
• Fixed: (OS X) CSS property names too wide to fit in the code grid were being trimmed shorter than necessary.

May 7th, 2013 (Stylizer 5.1.13.507)

• Improved: Size grip performance improvements for both Windows (up to 1.5X) and OS X (up to 3X). The mouse pointer no longer flickers when using a size grip (this was especially noticable on OS X). The new algorithm is also more reliable when Stylizer is run in a virtual machine or over remote desktop (to prevent unexpectedly large values from being suddenly inserted into your style sheet).
• Added: (OS X) Fn+Return can now to used to insert a new row above, Cmd+Fn+Return to copy the selector text and insert above.
• Fixed: (OS X) CSS comments were always being saved using unix-style line terminators on OS X regardless of any setting. Now, the line terminators used for comments are the same as those used for selectors (as specified in the CSS Formatting window).
• Fixed: Tooltips are no longer displayed for the Color Picker and Context Bar when turned off in the Preferences window.

April 16th, 2013 (Stylizer 5.1.13.416)

Improved the UI with over 30 tweaks and updates, helping Stylizer to feel more at home on OS X, while at the same time preserving its unique identity as a cross-platform app.

The Ivory theme received many improvements, the most visible being:

• Eliminated the blue toolbar hover effect (only on Mac)
• Lion-style flattened scroll bars (only on Mac)
• Checked buttons are black instead of orange
• More consistent browser tabs, including a redrawn close button
• Tweaked hues for more consistant colors throughout
• Subtle improvements to tool bars, check boxes and radio buttons

Other areas which received attention include menus, the context bar, and the CSS file tab bar.

Also fixed:

• Fixed: (OS/X) 1 or 2 pixels were being cut off on the left edge of most text displayed in the UI.
• Fixed: (OS/X) Arrows on the margin, padding and border buttons were too small (since the previous Retina update).
• Fixed: (Windows) The viewport in the magnifier window (displayed for the color picker and measuring type) would sometimes appear too large on Windows XP/Vista.
• Fixed: The eye dropper and context bar icons were not being updated when the theme changed.
• Fixed: The animation used when a local CSS file tab was closed was not properly aligned.
• Fixed: The new browser tab button was not being animated when a tab was closed.

• Improved: Many sites which use CSS media queries now appear correctly in live preview.
• Fixed: (OS/X) Improved keyboard handling so + and - characters can be typed into value cells, and numpad + and - will expand/collapse the selected row (to match the behavior on Windows).
• Fixed: The forward slash key, used to open/close grid cells, can now be used with any keyboard layout (not just US English).
