> Why it is not possible to add the examples? Is there any technical problem or just lack of time?

Do you mean a link to open the desktop app? I guess I could try, but I think it's easy enough to find the example manually. There's also some technical issues with it.

> I din't notice that the online version has less features.

I guess the line "The desktop version [2.0.1] is much faster and has many more features as well as additional examples" wasn't clear enough. I'll see about improving it.

> When it shows the current, all of them have the same length.

I think I'll add an option to make the arrow length vary. I'll also add a gamma slider.

I mean to open the online version with the examples, with only the features it has. Does the online version read an arbitrary file when opened? Or does the online version allow only a few preconfigured examples?

You probably have to add blink to that line so I don't miss it :)

Perhaps the button can include the version number, assuming they don't change very often.

The online version can read arbitrary files, but the issue is the examples shown in the animations were made with the desktop version after I made changes to the file format, so they can't be loaded in the web version. Honestly the web version kinda sucks, but I'm keeping it up because it's really accessible and simple to use.
