What is new in OmniWM 0.7.6

## What's New Since 0.7.5

**Auto-hide the Workspace Bar like the Dock, switch focus between floating and tiled windows, and see when Secure Input blocks shortcuts.** OmniWM 0.7.6 also restores two-finger scrolling in apps alongside column scrolling, swipes between workspaces with less background capture and fewer desktop flashes, trims idle input work, and fixes translations in all 20 languages.

### Gestures and workspace swipes

- **Scroll apps with two fingers again.** Column scrolling armed a gesture at the start of every two-finger scroll, so apps such as browsers ignored the rest of the scroll. Column scrolling now uses three or four fingers, like Overview, and a stale momentum-suppression state no longer swallows a new scroll after a gesture.
- **Capture swipe previews only when a swipe starts.** Touching the trackpad no longer opens live screen-capture streams for every window on the current and neighboring workspaces. A touch captures only windows without a cached image, and live capture starts when a workspace swipe is recognized, for just the two workspaces involved. In manual traces on an M4 Max with debug builds, live capture requests fell from 4.9 to 3.0 per swipe, none started on finger contact, and three-finger column scrolls started none; replayd CPU was not measured.
