Other Issues
This version of Cutter includes very many general "clean-ups" of its code base.
Summary:

  • fast lookup of python documentation - control+double click
  • open a wide variety of graphics files via a popup menu - right
        mouse click (control+click OSX). Cutter uses Shake to preview
        images,
  • the names of user templates are displayed in italic text,
  • bugs in Rman Tool->Shaders->Preview Appearance/Template
        have been removed,
  • the functionality and appearance of the process monitor window
        has been improved

There still remains several issues that hopefully will be resolved in the near future.
Summary:

  • undo is still buggy,
  • files larger than 0.75MB cannot be opened,
  • windows close too slowly.
