Silent Edition
On the right of the dashboard, this button makes you able to edit your show without your audience noticing it :

Indeed, as soon as activated, any changes on your project cannot be seen on the outputs, only on the workspace, until you deactivate the silent-edition and come back to where your show was :
Auto States
Above the workspace, this button makes you able to save the changes for every column :

Indeed, once activated, it automatically creates states.
For example, this is useful for working on a specific column without worrying about affecting the others :
Scripts Improvements
Many improvements have been done in this area.
First of all, you can now create parameters, which makes scripts way more useful :

We also added 2 modules. The first one is Network to create UDP/TCP clients or servers :

The second one is Graphics to make visuals for a script (very useful to display data processed by the script) :
By the way : if you are running a script via an interaction, you can now access the value of the interaction with the Millumin.getInteractionValue() function. For example, this is useful to adapt the behavior of a script depending on the intensity of the interaction.
Lastly, we updated the templates with more options. For example, there is now the TimeCounter script to display the time elapsed/remaining for a specific layer, as well as the Grid script with many options to show LED tiles :


Media Editor
The new panel brings all media editing tasks together in one place.
This allows you to quickly adjust, crop, trim or add effects to your media and preview the result simultaneously.

HDR Support
If you run HDR displays, you can now enjoy deep blacks and whites.
Feel free to use the outputs of your computers or a Blackmagic card to output to HDR.

Advanced Gradients
It is now possible to create gradients with several colors as well as radial ones. You can even place them within the image :

Presets for Output Sizes
Set the size of your canvases in a snap. And you can add your own custom sizes of course.

Use Math in Text-fields
Use mathematical formulas to perform your calculations directly in properties.

Interactions Improvements
A new option comes with the scheduler, so you could start an interaction right after the project is loaded :

We also add an action to enable/disable an interaction group :

QR Codes & Barcodes
A new effect is able to detect such codes.

Of course it can be used by both interactions and scripts (very handy to use an URL embed in a QR code for example).
IDN for Laser
The standard protocol to control laser over the network is now supported.

LeapMotion
Grab and pinch now with your device !
