Resources used in the fake 3.28 beta post

The post: Split screen, finally! (3.28 Beta)

Additional comments:

• It's real! I think beta rolls out in stages so not everyone gets the update at the same time.
• PDFs work too.
• Sorry for the lighting, it's getting late here.

Both were cropped, resized, and modified to make the background color closer to white:

Settings page

Used qt-resource-rebuilder with 2 custom mods:

• replaceReleaseNotes.qrr -- replaces the release notes image with /home/root/fake-release-notes.png
• spoofSoftwareVersion.qmd -- changes the version shown in the settings menu to 3.28.0.112

Both were tested on 3.24.0.149.

Functionality

Used rm-hacks-qmd (pre4 for 3.24) with two changes to make it look like the stock UI.

Downloaded and extracted:

curl -Lfo /tmp/rm-hacks.tar.gz https://github.com/asivery/rm-hacks-qmd/archive/refs/heads/master.tar.gz
tar -xzf /tmp/rm-hacks.tar.gz rm-hacks-qmd-master/0.0.11-pre4

Removed the gray padding in split screen:

sed -i 's/0\.2/0.0/g' rm-hacks-qmd-master/0.0.11-pre4/rmHacks/split_doc/split_doc_main.qmd

Removed the ToC button from the toolbar:

sed -i 's/^LOAD rmHacks\/table_of_contents_button_hack\.qmd$/; LOAD rmHacks\/table_of_contents_button_hack.qmd/' \
    rm-hacks-qmd-master/0.0.11-pre4/zz_rmhacks.qmd

In rM Hacks settings, disabled everything except:

• Toolbar Configuration > Document-level toggle buttons
• Document Configuration > Split Document

Used the toggle buttons to disable the toolbar clock.

Note

The original release notes used in the post were made in Figma. Later, they were ported to HTML to be published here.
