--- ## 🚀 What's New in v1.13.1 (February 7, 2026) **Stability & Cross-Browser Fixes** * **🐛 Glass Drag Fixed**: Resolved an issue where dragging the magnify glass would corrupt LiteGraph canvas state, leaving the cursor stuck in grab/pan mode and all canvas clicks non-functional. Now works reliably across Chromium, Firefox, and Brave. * **🐛 Ghost Interactions Fixed**: Fixed cursor actions (grab, text-input, pointer) persisting after hiding the info panel via the X key toggle. * **🔧 Cross-Browser Compatibility**: Glass drag now uses pointer events to match LiteGraph's event model, ensuring consistent behavior across all browsers. > 📄 **See [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) for the complete version history.** --- [](https://youtu.be/aUz5kbJDs0I)
