January 2018 Release

New Features and issue fixes to include:

• Counters disabled by default, changed command line option -c to enable.
• Disabled tabs are now hidden from view.
• Do not change the visible service in the details tab if a service property changes and the service still exists.
• Properties editor fixed to allow an empty gateway field in IPv4 and IPv6 connections (issue #148)
• Revise and enhance the properties editor dialog.

Important Notes:

This release has a new icon.def file. At first run your old icon.def file will be saved and the new one installed. You'll be asked if you want to save or discard the copy of the old one. You only need to select save if you had made changes and wish to have a record of them to to assist in making the same changes in the updated file.

As mentioned above the command line option -c now means enable counters. This is the exact opposite of the previous behavior where it would disable counters.

Mainly bug fixes and internal improvements. A new feature to implement technology tethering via Connman has been added.
