Thank you for this update! I can finally use the native Linux version without any problem. Previously, it had an issue where I could not double-click with a pen tablet, so I was forced to use the Windows version with Proton. Tested the new build on Linux today at work and no problems so far! Great job!

There are no too many new features, you can find some new little features in the v1.3.18-beta1 post and v1.3.18-beta2 (v1.3.18 includes all those changes).
