About Tab

I believe it could be interesting to have an "About" tab to show information about the program, like the name and current version, as well as links to the issues (support) page.

This will be added in 5.2.2 5.2.3

@radj307

Thanks.

Are you refer to 5.2.3 (5,2,2 was relased 5 days ago)?

I was, whoops! am very tired

I've decided not to add a whole about tab since I was struggling to fill it to the point of actually justifying a whole tab since the program name and version number are already shown on the caption bar.

Instead, I added a new button to the caption bar with a 'bug' icon (lady beetle, not ladybug!) that takes you to the bug report / support page, and added a hyperlink to the version number that takes you to the github repository.
Additionally, I've added some feedback indicators for these buttons to make it obvious that they are actually clickable.

For the time being, I just commented out the XAML code for the about tab rather than deleting it in case something comes up later that would justify using the extra space.

The above is now available in v5.2.3

Some additional things to add to the about tab:

• Contributor names & credits, sorted by contribution category (ex. Code, Translations, Resources like icons & fonts, etc.)
• Built-in submission form for bug reports
• The release date of the current version

Closing this as it isn't necessary
