UI Additions

Extrinsics

  • Signing Method Display in Transaction Summary
    Transaction summaries now display the signing method—whether via Ledger, Vault, or WalletConnect.

  • Improved WalletConnect Signing Feedback
    The WalletConnect signing modal now displays consistent feedback styled similarly to the Ledger signing modal, with improved behavior and clearer messaging to guide the user through the signing process.

  • Explorer Links Enabled for Finalized Extrinsics
    Once a transaction is finalized, a block explorer link becomes available in the extrinsic's dropdown menu, allowing users to view detailed transaction information in the web browser.

  • Deletion Confirmation for Extrinsics
    A confirmation dialog now appears when deleting extrinsics, ensuring users intentionally confirm before removal.

Misc

  • Unified Offline Status Banner
    An offline banner is now displayed at the top of the screen when the application is not connected to the network, providing a clear status indicator across all screens.

  • Account Source Badges in Send Screen Selector
    An account source badge is now shown for each account in the send screen's account selector, providing clear context when choosing sender and recipient accounts.

  • Treasury Balances from Asset Hub Chains
    Treasury balances from the Polkadot and Kusama Asset Hub chains are now displayed in the treasury overview UI.

API Handling Enhancements

This release improves how the application handles API connection failures, ensuring better stability and responsiveness. This includes smarter timeout handling, early termination of failed requests, and clearer UI feedback. Users can continue working smoothly and easily retry connections when needed.

  • Failed API connection attempts timeout gracefully, allowing the application to remain responsive and process other tasks.
  • An AbortController mechanism is used to terminate failed connection attempts early within asynchronous functions.
  • Main window UIs reflect the connection state for individual networks and update appropriately when a connection attempt fails.
  • After a successful connection, account state is automatically synced with the network and relevant subscriptions are initialized.
  • Users can manually retry a failed network connection using its Connect button in the footer.

Paseo Asset Hub Migration

The Paseo testnet has completed its Asset Hub migration, moving balances, staking, and governance functionality from the Paseo Relay Chain to the Paseo Asset Hub system chain.

This release updates the application to subscribe to the Paseo Asset Hub instead of the Paseo Relay Chain, ensuring staking and balance subscriptions continue to function correctly.
