Bento Slides 1.2.9: password-protected decks open again

[nyblnet]

Password-protected decks open again

Since 1.2.0, a deck saved with a password showed "This file could not start" instead of asking for the password. Sorry about that. Your decks were never damaged: everything was still in the file, safely encrypted, but the file couldn't show you the prompt. 1.2.9 fixes it.

If one of your decks shows that message, go to bento.page/convert, drop the file in and choose "The same file, on the latest version". You get the same deck on 1.2.9, still encrypted, and it asks for your password as usual. The page never needs your password and nothing is uploaded.

Then, please, open each password-protected deck, unlock it, and save it once. This release also includes a security fix for password-protected decks, and saving once applies it.

Also in 1.2.9

• Every text field looks the same. Text boxes, dropdowns and text areas share one look, with Bento's amber focus ring, and the dark theme no longer shows grey browser fills.
• A browser too old for Bento now names the right app, instead of calling every file a spreadsheet.
• A table written without a style opens. Decks from other tools or AI agents whose tables had no style settings could stop the properties panel from opening.

Decks that open normally update from About as usual. The update is signed like every release, and your file is rewritten in place.
