We’re delivering this hotfix just three days after the 0.42.0 update to address important feedback from our beloved Community and better align with user expectations. This patch bundles all the features of 0.42.0 along with UI improvements, primarily the sidebar display settings, and several bug fixes. Thank you for your swift feedback and continued support!
Here’s what’s new in this hotfix:
Quality of Life
Added display options for Vault Sidebar to Settings → Personalization tab.
Moved settings from the Appearance tab to the Personalization tab for consistency; renamed the Appearance tab to Color Mode.
Fixed an issue with the default auto-hide sidebar behavior. Previous logic caused problems for users with auto-hide enabled in fixed mode. The setting is now updated, so please reconfigure your auto-hide/show preferences.
Corrected the positioning of the sidebar toggle icon and header on Windows and Linux.
Cleared saved search state in Global Search when the clear button is used.
Fixed a bug preventing “0” values from appearing in Number relations. Thanks, @sandyeggo
Resolved an issue with markdown parsing that caused inline links to add “…” at the end. Thanks, @ferdzso!
Fixed a middleware problem with macOS 11 builds. Thanks, @_martin
Fixed an issue with URL previews not displaying correctly on mouse hover. Thanks, @candidchronicles
Fixed issue with PDFs exporting black background in dark mode. Thanks, @2PJs
Fixed numbers remaining when switching from a numbered list to a bulleted list. Thanks, @Elias
Thanks for again for your patience and feedback as we work to improve Anytype
Not gonna lie it should be back to "Appearance Tab", Customization tab or Theme tab for further custimiztion later.
The only thing I can think about in “Color mode” in the future the ability to change accent color, color tags and the user interface but if it called anything else it will make more space for other things like changing font, Icons and much more
Hello. For packaging purposes for Linux distros, is there another full release of 0.42.X (no beta) planned in near future (like this week) which the distros should wait for before updating its packaged version of Anytype, or should the distros update now to 0.42.3? No problem if there’s no clear answer.

It seems in the file there are not sha512 hashes but some compressed string.
