NEW: Project File Save Notification Proves the Project Was Saved

Previous versions of VTube were quiet when you saved a project file. That made some of our customers understandably nervous.

So now VTube always shows a quick notification at the top of the screen when you save a project file.

The window displays for a few seconds then disappears automatically. But you can even keep working when this window is open because you can click on other parts of VTube even while this notification is on the screen.

NEW: HOT Keys Control-L (Load) and Control-S (Save) for VTube Project Files

These new hotkeys are a simple thing- but they'll make your life much easier if you're a hotkey user.

Try it. Press CTRL-L to load a project file, then CTRL-S to quickly save it again. It's about as easy as it gets.

(The new project save notification window described above will display every time you press CTRL-S.)

FIX: Transfluid XYZ Output (BKT File) Repairs

This feature allows you to output new XYZ data to the bender from inside VTube-STEP (which is part of VTube-LASER).

The output engine for Transfluid XYZ data was updated and repaired from errors we found that would stop the export.

Also, the linear units are now converted to whatever the current linear unit is in the VTube user interface. This was added because the internal Transfluid data can be either inches or millimeters.

FIX: Collect Objects Delete Properly

This version corrects an issue where the Collect objects deleted in the Collect grid were not also deleted on the screen.

NEW: Select Multiple Drill Cylinders At One Time

This version allows you to select all the drill cylinder objects at one time in each straight. This makes selection of a large number of holes much faster.
