We’re excited to introduce Vor v1.8.0: a major release anchored by a completely reimagined layout engine that brings even more customization options to your tech table. This update sets the stage for even more powerful features ahead, and we can’t wait for you to experience them.
At the heart of v1.8.0 is the updated layout engine - a front-to-back overhaul of how widgets are placed, adjusted, and positioned on the incoming video. Now with the ability to align multiple widgets, and to adjust their sizing it’s possible to bring granular precision to where the information is shown. Whether you’re building a simple layout or creating a complex setup, the new engine gives you the flexibility and control you need.
This improvement also paves the way for more consistency from Vor to Vor Mobile and opens up a host of exciting changes to layout customization. And, with the new Compositions feature it’s possible to change the layout while recording - even remotely via OSC.
We’re also thrilled to bring native support for grandMA3 into Vor. You’re now able to connect to grandMA3 directly and display information with three brand new Widgets:
grandMA3 Cue Widget
grandMA3 Elapsed Widget
grandMA3 Master Widget
With v1.8.0, we’ve also focused on user experience enhancements, including simplifying the permissions requests when installing or updating Vor. We’ve also added support for macOS 15, and the privacy permissions that come with those.
As always, we’ve resolved bugs, including:
Fixed image picker issues in the Static Image Widget
Custom widget bubbles now render correctly after style changes
QLab Active Cues, Playhead, and Latest Widgets refresh more reliably
The new layout engine is an exciting update to Vor, and with grandMA3 support and a host of improvements across the board, this version delivers serious power for all designers, programmers, and technicians.
As always, check out the full documentation for deeper dives, and don’t forget to hop into our Discord community to share feedback, ask questions, or show off your newest layout.
We’re excited to see what you build next with Vor Mobile v1.8.0!
