What a tool!
0.1.2 has just now been updated to 0.1.4. here.
Do take a rest, Rune. If you don't lay another finger on this potent
application, it will remain as a superb achievement for years.
+++++
A little note for new Linux users who find that Rune's application
is not seeing the NanoVNA when it is physically connected: root's
privileges will be required in running the application so that the
application is permitted to make a connection to the NanoVNA. If the
issue is that the application has not been permitted to open a port,
there will be a report to that effect in the console display.
+++++
On behalf of all of us, Rune, many, many thanks.

Hello all,
I just released NanoVNA-Saver 0.1.4. Here are the release notes:
This release adds a number of new features, some bug fixes, and some
internal reorganisation:
Adding markers:
You can now add or remove markers, allowing you as many as you can fit on
your screen. In fact, the software does not stop there: You can even add
markers which you can't fit on your screen!
New charts:
A number of new chart types have been added, allowing you to plot |Z|,
|S11| and |S21| in linear format, S11 and S21 logarithmic on the same chart
at the same time, and the raw S11 and S21 real/imaginary S-parameter values.
Calibration updates:
The calibration assistant has become more talkative, and should be better
at telling you what has gone wrong when it won't apply a calibration. When
applying a new calibration, or applying after changing to a different
calibration standard set, the previous sweep is immediately updated to show
the effect of the new values. This should be useful for finding the right
values for calibration standard sets.
Bugfixes:
Line thickness and point size should now load correctly and apply to charts
after you restart the software.
SWR marker colours should similarly also load correctly.
The software should now be able to run and attempt to check for updates,
and not crash when you don't have an internet connection.
I hope these features and updates are useful to the community!
I look forward to hearing the feedback from you all!
And a little announcement: I have been really quite busy with this software
for the past two or so months. I'm now going to take a little break and
relax, and I therefore don't expect to make any new releases next week
(*gasp*), and I might even be slow in responding to your emails.
You have all been very kind in writing to me both showing your
appreciation, as well as pointing out bugs, misunderstandings, potential
improvements and new ideas. I appreciate this greatly, and I hope you will
continue to do so, even as I take a week or so to relax ;-)
