v0.4.0 - New features and improved cross-platform support

This release incorporates some new features and improves significantly on the cross-platform support.

What's Changed

Among the new features is an overall conclusion screen, so that each task now ends with a more inconspicuous message telling the participant to click 'continue' when they are ready for the next task, while the last task in a chain of tasks can then be followed by an overall completion screen giving better closure to the participant.

The compatibility of the app with Linux and MacOS has been improved, avoiding unsightly errors which previously occurred when closing the app. In addition, the app can now be run inside the Windows Subsystem for Linux (Version 2) with the WSLg graphics link (just install chrome, chromium or edge, then install the app, and run it with the brand-new command line argument --disable-gpu).

The app is now also available as a regular, pip-installable Python package from PyPI. You can install and run it as simply as

pip install research-client
research-client

This should work on Windows, Linux, and MacOS -- provided you have Python and the Python Scripts directories on your PATH 😉
More importantly of course, this means you can import and use the app and its data models from inside your own python scripts!

Full Changelog: v0.3.6...v0.4.0

v0.3.6 - New Moselle-Franconian AGT

This release implements various improvements and fixes to the app, such as more consistent UI behaviour (e.g. sequencing), more extensive settings, increased fault tolerance, a new overall conclusion screen and the inclusion of a new German/Moselle-Franconian version of the AGT localised for Belgium.

Full Changelog: v0.3.4...v0.3.6

v0.3.4 - Lombard-Italian MGT integration

This release incorporates some bug fixes to the translation system for the MGT and adds a Lombard-Italian version of the MGT.

Full Changelog: v0.3.3...v0.3.4

v0.3.3 - Fixes and improvement on the second preview release

This release incorporates some bug fixes on the second preview release which prevented translations/different versions of the MGT from working correctly.

The release further addresses an issue where location fields in UI forms were inconsistent as to which characters were accepted, these now all accept alphanumeric characters as well as spaces, apostrophes, hyphens, full stops and parentheses to allow place names such as "St. Vith", "Freiburg (Breisgau)", "Stoke-on-Trent", and "John o' Groats".
