Bug fixes
When running ES-DE in the background, quitting a game or application using Alt + F4 sometimes made ES-DE quit as well
Thumbnails were not included in theme sets that used them for the Detailed view style (affected RetroPie ES compatibility)
Game images were not included in theme sets that used them for the Video view style (affected RetroPie ES compatibility)
Themes with large pixelated fonts sometimes displayed too many textlist rows (affected RetroPie ES compatibility)
When entering the text edit field for the virtual keyboard, a navigation key repeat would sometimes continue to run
The menu scroll indicators and title sometimes overlapped (e.g. seen in the Alternative emulators interface)
There was a small rounding error that caused a minimal distortion when rendering menu titles
(macOS) The platform tag was missing for the NEC TurboGrafx-CD (tg-cd) system, leading to inaccurate scraping
