OpenBoard new 1.4.5 v3
All releases are mostly development versions. They can be used, but may contain confusing or unnecessary settings. Settings may be removed or reset on updates. Consider all releases as beta quality at best.
This is a version of OpenBoard with some of the open PRs merged, and some more work I never finished because the OpenBoard devs stopped responding.
The added functionality has not been tested a lot, so be prepared for bugs or unexpected behavior.
Notable changes:
- Debug version can be installed along OpenBoard
- Allow users to add and replace built-in dictionaries
- dictionaries are available at https://github.com/Helium314/openboard/tree/new/dictionaries/dict
