The side menus can be collapsed and expanded very quickly in order to show you an expanded viewport.

The side menu fonts can be changed in System Options to fit more or less on the screen vertically.

The side menu widths can be set to default to NARROW, MEDIUM, or WIDE in the System Option menu.

This free-form editor allows you to enter comments 1 and 2 as notes with empty rows using the Enter button.

You can even load and save external text files to and from the Comment fields.

VTube now uses shortcut function keys for certain tasks:

• F1 = Help
• F2 = Refresh Graphics
• F3 = Zoom All
• F4 = Viewport to VIEW mode
• F5 = Viewport to ORBIT mode
• F6 = Viewport to ZOOM WINDOW mode
• F12 = Clear (Delete) all imported graphics objects

VTube needed more controls on the right. And the controls needed to be more logically grouped. Now the control menu has an added Office style button at the top called "Control" that contains 8 buttons rather than the old menu's 3 buttons. Some of the buttons were moved out of View into Control.

A new important button is "Clear Imported". This button will allow you to clear all the imported data from the screen, and all collected data that depends the imported data with one touch of a button. This allows you to clear out unnecessary data that may slow VTube down. (The old method of selecting the imported objects with the window, then pressing delete several times in the Imported Model menu was too cumbersome.)

The Supravision export would use the A-End and B-End Solid Model Offset for the Supravision end offsets in the exported Supravision file. The values that should be used are the A-End and B-End Length Adjust - because that is the equivalent for Supravision end offsets.

This has been repaired in this version.

The point labels would sometimes put "1" in points other than the first point incorrectly in LASER mode. This has been fixed.

The model refresh time is optimized significantly - especially when the point labels are switched on.

• VTube no longer refreshes the tube model on the screen when a project is saved. This saves significant amount of time for large models.
