• 
• Bug Fixes:
• Fixed the Colour view's colour picker that was not working on Lion.
• Fixed an issue that caused the Timeline view to jump to the first panel after moving or deleting a panel.
• Multiple fixes were carried out to Final Cut Pro Conformation. The issue was related to the export of one image per layer from a project that did not have a 4:3 resolution. The layer movements (translation, scaling and rotation) were not exported properly.
• Fix to have the Display module selected by default in scenes exported to AnimatePro/Harmony instead of the Display All option.
• Changed modal sheets to modal dialogs to fix a problem that was causing toolbars to be stuck and to appear above modal sheets (Open, Saves As, etc). This is only on Mac OS X.
• Hidden layers will no longer be exported to PSD files when exporting to bitmap. Hidden layers were exported as empty layers.
• Fixed the import of Final Draft® XML that was missing line returns. This happened when importing a FDX file to the Script caption in the Storyboard view.
• Fixed the text tool to allow typing Asian characters.
• Changed Max Texture dpf preference name to Maximum Texture Resolution.
• Changed the behavior of the flatten command to flatten strokes based on their RGBA values instead
• of the internal color ID.
• Pressing [Esc] to close the Exporting Movie progress bar was closing the progress bar but was not
• stopping the export. This has been fixed.
• Added protection to prevent a crash when an image is loaded during rendering due to insufficient
• memory allocation.
• An error message will be displayed when an image import fails due to memory allocation.
• Prevent a crash when importing a large image when using the Vectorize Options Dialog.
• Disabled the delete command while dragging. It was possible to delete selected vectors while dragging them with the select tool. Doing so corrupted the undo list and could eventually make the application crash.
• Fixed the "Lock/Unlock Scene and Panel Names" commands that were marking all the project panels modified when Auto Tracking Mode was enabled.
• When a scene name ends with _1, duplicating the scene will increment the number to _2 instead of adding an additional _1.
• Fixed the Remove Camera Keyframe at Current Frame command that was not working when the Camera by Panel Compatibility mode preference was enabled.
• Image files naming convention is now consistent when exporting to bitmap wether one scene is selected or the entire project. This also fixes the naming convention when exporting to Final Cut Pro for conformation.
• Fixed the Export to Bitmap function that was creating corrupted images when the camera scale was negative.
• Fixed the element collision that occurred when extracting scenes out of a project and that caused some drawings to disappear.
• Fixed the camera position when exporting to Final Cut Pro from the File > Conformation commands.
• Fixed an issue that caused the first scene to disappear after importing a Final Draft® script .fdx.
