# Build b1611 v1.1.0-b1611

Clicking a track selects rather than playing. Sharing lets you link to an album, an artist, or track. Public URLs allow posting to socials, etc. Oh, and bugfixes!

ADDED 5 changes

- +
    
    Track lists have a cursor
    
    Clicking a track selects it; it doesn't start playing. Play from the hover affordance, a double-click, or ⏎ on the selected row.
    
- +
    
    The keyboard walks the list
    
    Arrow keys move the cursor and keep moving while held, ⏎ plays, and modifier-held arrows still reach the app's other shortcuts instead of being swallowed by the list.
    
- +
    
    Share an album, an artist, or a track
    
    The share sheet is on album and artist pages, on any track row's ⋯ menu, and in the chin for whatever's playing. Share to Messages, Mail, or socials.
    
- +
    
    Shared track links open cued and revealed
    
    Follow a link to a song and Kapell opens the album, scrolls that song into view and puts the cursor on it, rather than dropping you at the top of the record to hunt. Both kapell:// and ordinary web links land the same place.
    
- +
    
    Kapell tells you when enrichment can't run
    
    With the credential missing, every credit, sleeve and graph lookup used to fail quietly. Settings now names the state and offers the repair, and the chin's lip distinguishes "no credential" from "nothing written about this track."
    

CHANGED 6 changes

- Selected and playing are no longer the same pixels: a selected row wears a quiet frame, the playing row keeps the wash, accent border and level meter.
    
- The cursor follows what you play, so the keyboard picks up from where the music is rather than from where you last clicked.
    
- The album action row is three buttons again — Play album, Favorite, Add to crate — with Start a station and Share moved into a ⋯ beside them, also reachable by right-clicking the header.
    
- Favorite's label no longer flips to "Favorited" and nudges the whole action row sideways on every toggle.
    
- A long album title sets tighter, holding together as one title instead of reading as two.
    
- The album cue and the sleeve no longer assert a MusicBrainz lookup that never ran.
    

FIXED 6 changes

- ✓
    
    Opening an album from search lands on the song you clicked, not the top of the record.
    
- ✓
    
    Clicking a row you'd already selected re-arms the keyboard instead of going dead.
    
- ✓
    
    Fix some races in clicks and loads.
    
- ✓
    
    A song that appears twice in a playlist behaves as two rows, not one.
    
- ✓
    
    An artist's library top tracks respect disc order.
    
- ✓
    
    Fixed some "not built yet" screens I mkissed.
