Mac Duo 1.1: More control over the MacBook fold

@Mac Duo 1.1 is out, with a few changes focused on making the fold feel more natural while keeping Mac Duo lightweight when you're just using your Mac normally.
What's new:
• Minimum movement
Set how far the lid needs to move before the fold responds.
• Resting angle
Recalibrate your MacBook's resting angle and Mac Duo will remember it.
• Stationary frame rate
Choose how much rendering Mac Duo uses while the lid is still. Moving the lid instantly returns the fold to full speed.
• Better sensor detection
Improved lid-angle sensor detection, with clearer messaging when your Mac doesn't expose a continuous sensor.
• Lighter Settings preview
The Settings preview now stops rendering when it's not visible.

The idea was simple: make the effect feel better during small lid movements, behave better when your Mac is sitting still, and use less work when the animation isn't active.
Mac Duo is a tiny macOS app that recreates the iPhone Duo-inspired fold effect on MacBook.
If you've been using Mac Duo, I'd love to hear how 1.1 feels on your MacBook.

the minimum movement threshold is the change I'd actually notice day to day - the original version folding on every tiny lid wobble while just typing was the one thing that made me stop using it for a while. resting angle recalibration is a nice touch too since not everyone's hinge sits at the same angle after a year of use. does the stationary frame rate change persist per-Mac if you use it on both a laptop and an external display setup, or does it reset each time you unplug/replug?

@galdayan Thanks, really appreciate that feedback. That was exactly the kind of issue we wanted to address with Minimum Movement, especially when you're typing and the lid naturally moves slightly.
And yes, the resting angle recalibration should help account for differences in hinge position over time.
The Stationary Frame Rate setting is saved in Mac Duo's settings, so it persists across sessions and isn't tied to whether you've plugged or unplugged an external display. Once you choose it, it stays at that setting until you change it.
Glad to hear 1.1 is addressing the day-to-day issue that was getting in the way for you! ✨

@harigohel that persistence-per-Mac answer is exactly what I needed - saves me from having to redo it every time I dock the laptop. 1.1 sounds like a solid update, thanks for taking the time to walk through it
