		+
		+	<div style="width: 700px">
		+
		+	New stuff:
		+
		+	Write styles as layers to SketchUp .skp output
		+
		+	Implement fractional inches length display option. When unit system = Inches there is now an option distance display: Fractional Inches.
		+
		+	Add option for DXF output to write segments of a curve as individual entities same as using Edit > Separate on the curve before export.
		+	[DXF Export]
		+	WriteCurveSegmentsSeparately=y
		+
		+	Update STEP header - Strip out path from filename in STEP header
		+
		+	Update view pan with MMB
		+	Shift+MMB drag = Pan for Blender compat.
		+	When [View] ShiftMMBPan=y is set in moi.ini .
		+	When Rotate with middle buttton set, you can then get Shift+MMB for pan by setting [View] ShiftMMBPan=y is set in moi.ini .
		+
		+	Update theme straight snap line color
		+	Look for STRAIGHT_SNAP_LINE_ARGB_COLOR2 symbol in the theme's defines.inc .
		+	If set this will be used for the second color on dashed construction lines if the viewport has a dark background color.
		+	if not set the second color will be the inverse of the main color.
		+
		+
		+	Bug fixes:
		+
		+	Fix svg import bug - Fix bug where having a <symbol> with self closing tag triggered an error that aborted entire load.
		+
		+	Fix bug where transforming objects that are inside groups would make the transformed objects hidden at the end.
		+
		+	Fix brep disable subobject styles not being processed on brep in group.
		+
		+	Fix alphabetic upper/lower case sort ordering of named objects in the Scene Browser.
		+	Previously sort order with differing cases would have capital letters and lower case in separate sections, like:
		+	A B C a b c
		+	Fixed so upper case and lower case are next to each other like:
		+	A a B b C c
		+
		+	Fix wrong sub object visibility state after canceled transform.
		+
		+	Fix leader selection bug. A leader scaled by model units where the text value is a space character would not select with a left-to-right window selection.
		+
		+	Update DXF import - Fix polyline import bug, polyline vertices were not being read if "Vertices follow" flag was not set.
		+
		+	Update tapered extrude - keep analytic circles for resulting edge curves on tapered extrude.
		+
		+	Fix curve filleting - fix failed curve fillet on anti-tangent cusp point.
		+
		+	Fix bug with hidden sub objects of groups becoming visible after undo.
		+
		+	Make annotation text with scale mode = by model units have the text height scale up and down with the transform.
		+
		+	Fix construction line hit test bug. Annotation lines were being drawn on top of construction lines in the hit test map which prevented a construction line that was on the cline from getting "on" snaps. Fixed by only drawing annotation lines for point picking hit testing, not for object selection hit testing.
		+
		+	Fix bugs where annotations inside groups not having various things applied to them.
		+
		+
		+	Scripting:
		+
		+	Add objectList::matchProperty( 'name', 'value' );
		+	Returns list of objects that have a property with the given value.
		+
		+	Update Scene Browser scripting
		+	Add SceneBrowserItem::isTargetedObject( obj, for_selection );
		+	and SceneBrowserItem::gatherTargetedObjects( for_selection );
		+
		+	Update PointStreamPicker - Allow script function as a bind target
		+
		+	Add -LoadAsTemplate command line option to load file also given as a command line parameter as a template file instead of regular file.
		+
		+	Update ObjectList::callMethod() - pass function arguments through.
		+
		+	Add moi.ui.setBusyCursor( busy );
		+
		+	Add annotation.scale( ScaleFactor ) method. Can be used to scale annotation text and arrow sizes up or down when making a screenshot.
		+
		+	Add moi.ui.resetCPlaneAfterNextPointPick()
		+	When set when the next pointpicker finishes it will reset the cplane back to world.
		+
		+	Add face.isRational, face.degreeU, face.degreeV, face.knotsU, face.knotsV, can be used for comparing if the underlying surfaces for 2 faces are the same.
		+
		+
		+	Update surface control point scripting.
		+	Implement face.numControlPointsU , face.numControlPointsV, and var index = face.uvToEditPointIndex( u, v )
		+
		+	Can be used to select rows or columns of surface control points.
		+
		+	Examples: select the top edge of points along the U direction:
		+	<pre>
		+	script:var faces = moi.geometryDatabase.getSelectedObjects().getFaces();
		+	for ( var i = 0; i < faces.length; ++i )
		+	{
		+	var face = faces.item(i);
		+	var numu = face.numControlPointsU;
		+	var numv = face.numControlPointsV;
		+
		+	for ( var u = 0; u < numu; ++u )
		+	{
		+	var index = face.uvToEditPointIndex( u, numv-1 );
		+	face.getParentBRep().setEditPointSelected( index, true );
		+	}
		+	}
		+	</pre>
		+	Selecting the right-side edge of points in the V direction:
		+	<pre>
		+	script:var faces = moi.geometryDatabase.getSelectedObjects().getFaces();
		+	for ( var i = 0; i < faces.length; ++i )
		+	{
		+	var face = faces.item(i);
		+	var numu = face.numControlPointsU;
		+	var numv = face.numControlPointsV;
		+
		+	for ( var v = 0; v < numv; ++v )
		+	{
		+	var index = face.uvToEditPointIndex( numu-1, v );
		+	face.getParentBRep().setEditPointSelected( index, true );
		+	}
		+	}
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	More scripting support for edit points.
		+	Add:
		+	obj.getEditPoints() - returns list of 3d edit points
		+	var newobj = obj.setEditPoints( points ) - edits an object by setting its edit points.
		+
		+
		+	Update scripting - curve.containsPoint( pt )
		+
		+	Add curve.containsPoint( pt ) - tests if the given point is inside the projected outline of a planar curve.
		+
		+	This enables being able to make a script to select object edit points inside of a selected boundary, like:
		+	<pre>
		+	script:
		+	var crvs = moi.geometryDatabase.getSelectedObjects().getCurves();
		+	var objs = moi.geometryDatabase.getObjects();
		+	for ( var i = 0; i < objs.length; ++i )
		+	{
		+	var obj = objs.item(i);
		+	if ( obj.showPoints )
		+	{
		+	for ( var j = 0; j < crvs.length; ++j )
		+	{
		+	var crv = crvs.item(j);
		+	if ( !crv.isPlanar )
		+	continue;
		+
		+	for ( var k = 0; k < obj.numEditPoints; ++k )
		+	{
		+	var pt = obj.getEditPoint(k);
		+	if ( crv.containsPoint( pt ) )
		+	{
		+	obj.setEditPointSelected( k, true );
		+	}
		+	}
		+	}
		+	}
		+	}
		+	</pre>
		+
