Panic Button 4.2 beta 1 released!

This is a beta release of an upcoming new version of Panic Button. It is being made available for testing, and although it is fairly stable, expect to encounter the few inevitable bugs.

What's New

• New option for the Minimize All Windows action to open a new browser window after all browser windows are minimized. If this option is turned on, you can restore the minimized browser windows by clicking the Panic Button again from the new window.
• The extension preferences page now uses the Dark Mode colors on macOS and Windows.

Things You Should Know About

• Panic Button 4.2 requires Firefox 68 or newer.
• Known Issue: On latest versions of Firefox starting with version 71, the Hide and Replace action doesn't work if more than one browser window was open at the time the Panic Button action was triggered. If you normally browse with multiple browser windows, consider changing the Panic Button action to Minimize All Windows. Users on Firefox 68 ESR aren't affected.
