Change log:
-improved .svg loader
-enhanced SpaceNavigator support (roll, fliped rotation axes, 3 times faster)
-added live editing of text in Text spline object
-3D view doesn't become auto-activated anymore
-more efficient properties editor (doesn't create unnecessary undos anymore)
-changed material assignment behavior
-fixed bug in .obj loader
-fixed bug in property editor (center text in property groups)
-fixed crashing bug when deleting a 3D view
-fixed crashing bug in light map renderer
-fixed crashing bug when deleting animation takes
-fixed crashing bug in time line when recording a parameter
-fixed bug displaying position/scale/rotation parameters of tags
-fixed bug when moving camera while animation job is running
-fixed memory leak when rendering animation
-fixed bug in burn transform tool
-fixed bug in .hdr exporter (output no longer gamma corrected)
Please be aware that this is beta software. So don't use it with important data.!!!
