On GitHub, the developer lists a total of five changes that are rolled out with this maintenance update. Apparently the bugs were so severe that they couldn't wait until version 0.28.

  • #8330 – FancyZones not waiting for me to release Shift. The primary bug is fixed. We discovered an edge case #8511that is not resolved in this larger fix. We felt the larger fix was worth getting out without the edge case being solved.
  • #8378 – Memory leak in FancyZones. Our fix actually improved performance when showing the zones on high res and high DPI scaling screens
  • #8339 – FZ editor is correctly handling multi monitor when the laptop built-in display is turned off.
  • #8322 -Editor Crash on removing colors from the history where there is none
  • #6594 – Color Picker hangs while holding activation keystroke

As always, the installer and source code is available for free download from GitHub.
