Wheel-zooming in particular wasn't triggering it before, since it doesn't move the mouse.\r\n\r\n## v1.1.0\r\n\r\n**New:** when a viewport armed for Swipe Compare is still loading its content, the cursor over the main canvas now switches to a busy/spinner shape. Previously, pressing **S** at that moment could look like it silently did nothing \u2014 now it's clear the content just isn't ready yet. The spinner clears automatically once loading finishes, once a swipe actually starts, or once nothing is armed.\r\n\r\n## v1.0.3 \u2014 important fix if you're on v1.0.2\r\n\r\n**Fix:** v1.0.2 could crash QGIS shortly after startup, whether or not Swipe Compare was even in use. The cause was a low-level Qt mechanism (an application-wide event filter) used to make the **S** key work no matter where keyboard focus was \u2014 it turned out unsafe given how QGIS loads its many plugins on macOS.\r\n\r\nThe underlying UX is preserved without the crash: the main canvas now grabs keyboard focus on its own as soon as you point the mouse at it, so **S** still works without clicking the canvas first \u2014 unless you're actively typing in a text field elsewhere, in which case hovering the canvas won't steal your focus.\r\n\r\n**If you installed v1.0.2, please update to this version or later.**\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n## Upgrading\r\n\r\n1. Remove the old QuickMapCompare plugin in QGIS (**Plugins \u2192 Manage and Install Plugins \u2192 Installed**).\r\n2. Install from the attached ZIP (**Plugins \u2192 Manage and Install Plugins \u2192 Install from ZIP**).\r\n3.
