# Canvas selection, caption editing, and Desktop updates Source: [Canvas selection, caption editing, and Desktop updates]() Documentation index: [llms.txt]() [Back to changelog](https://pr-444-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/changelog) August 26, 2026 (2026-08-26) Select and drag overlapping media more predictably, keep caption editing in sync, and finish Desktop updates with a clear restart prompt. Web August 26, 2026 No update required Desktop 0.2.28 Minimum version Agent Plugin 0.2.25 Minimum version ## Feature updates ### Desktop updates #### Restart after an update finishes in the background When a Desktop update finishes downloading in the background, ChatCut offers to restart immediately or wait until later. Dismissing one version does not hide future updates.

Related docs: [Transcript and Captions](https://pr-444-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/transcript-and-captions) ## Fixes ### Viewer #### Overlapping media follows your selection and drag intent Hover and click target the frontmost media, while dragging preserves the item or multi-item selection you already chose. Context-menu actions also keep the current selection. Related docs: [Viewer and Playback Controls](https://pr-444-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/editor-overview) ### Media library #### Dragging media no longer changes the current preview Starting a drag from an unselected library item no longer selects or previews it, so the current canvas selection stays stable until you drop.

Related docs: [Desktop App](https://pr-444-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/desktop-app) ### Captions #### Caption editing stays aligned with playback The active caption follows editing and the playhead more reliably, and clicking outside text editing no longer clears the selected caption unexpectedly.

Related docs: [Viewer and Playback Controls](https://pr-444-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/editor-overview) ### Timeline #### Projects recover from stale timeline references Desktop repairs dangling item references during project loading instead of leaving the timeline blank or blocking later edits.
