• Hierarchical selection dialogs with multiple selection now allow user to check/uncheck multiple selected items.
• Fixed problems with Camera palette and custom cameras.
• "Reload Textures" now clears on disk texture cache.
• Display > Paste onto Background now won't scale the scene when a custom render size is set.
• Custom GUI preferences are now stored non-language specifically.
• Improved efficiency of Paste Onto Background and Clear Background Picture shortcuts.
• Clearing hair, cloth and physics simulations won't result in deletion of results cache file (TMP, DYN) any more.
• Fixed case where using color picker with multi-monitor display would cause instability (Mac OS X only).

Material Room

• Material groups in Material palette popup menu are now sorted alphabetically.
• Vector type inputs on material nodes now can be clicked and values can be entered.
• Deleting nodes with animated inputs now deletes associated parameters.
• Fixed case where connecting a frame number to a Movie node via a Math node would cause OS freeze.
• Fixed Remove Detached Nodes wacro.

Cloth Room

• Now reading static and dynamic friction settings upon reopening scene.
• Fixed case where modifying a group with non-clothified object selected would cause instability.

Face Room

• Rex and Roxie 1.1 head databases now use their respective head shape.

Preview Rendering

• Comic Book mode: Now rendering background image/footage properly.
• Comic Book mode: Fixed problem accepting Tone parameter changes when using Western European regional settings.
• OpenGL preview scaling of background images is now consistent with FireFly.
• Fixed issue where movies loaded as image sequences preview black (Open GL Hardware shading only).
• Shaders marked as modified by a Python script will now update in viewport (OpenGL hardware shading only).

Final Rendering

• Enabling motion blur in conjunction with smooth polygons does not cause instability any more.
• Depth of Field no longer ignores objects close to the screen edge.
• No more halos or splotches around objects when rendering with Depth of Field enabled.

Animation

• Graph palette: Fixed sound wave display problems.
• Fixed a problem involving mouse tracking while playing animation where Poser could get unresponsive.
• Animation palette: No longer modifying collapse/expand states after toggling figure IK.
• Animation palette: Now remembering collapsed/uncollapsed states when updating for added or removed scene objects.
• Now explicitly preventing the creation of keyframes with negative frame numbers.

Figure Creation

• Vertex Weights palette: Set All now obeys Group restriction.
• Morphing tool Create mode: Fixed a problem where parameter selection menu did not always show newly created parameters.
• Morphing tool Create mode: Fixed a problem using Select on context menu to choose actors.
• Morphing tool Create mode: No longer forcing drawing of unimesh figures to traditional skinning.
• Group editor: Fixed case where Grow (Edge Loop) would cause instability.
• Fixed case where Object > Copy Morphs From… would cause instability.
• Setup room: Fixed case where entering with conformed figures could result in wrong selection, instability when creating bones.
• Parameter Settings: Enabled editing of internal parameter names (proceed with caution).

Content Library

• Now prompting for extending scene length more reliably when applying animated pose exceeding current length.
• Fixed a problem loading (using 'add material to') saved 'node selection only' materials with no root node.
• Reduced flickering of embedded Library palette (32-bit Mac OS X only).

PoserPython

• Python add-ons are now loaded before double clicking or drag and drop opens a document (Windows only).

Import/Export

• Bullet Physics: Now exporting soft body dynamics simulation results on Figures.
• Now allowing choice of body parts upon export for unimesh figures.

Installation

• Fixed case where Download Manager would crash after quitting without installing.
• Download Manager: If installers have been previously downloaded but not installed before a newer installer is available, the older installer is kept depending on preferences. For example, setting "Number of installers to keep" to 1 will retain one older copy.

Queue Manager

• Enabled image sequence support for rendering on remote nodes.
• Enabled 32-bit support in Queue Manager stand alone installer (Windows only).
