Changes: With the release of 1.8.67 you are able to...

• ...see a hint on numbers with scientific notation.

The following critical issues are fixed:

1. The 3D manipulator orientation gets polluted.
2. LDPE was not able to download from library.ldraw.org
3. The tabs in the 3D editor couldn't be moved around. The text editor was not affected.
4. SymSplitter cutted with data from subfiles too, in addition to the cutting plane (see images on https://github.com/nilsschmidt1337/ldparteditor/issues/959 )
5. Intersector calculated sometimes wrong results with some triangles missing.
6. It was not possible to do a "copy + transform" action on MacOS X with the cursor keys (see https://github.com/nilsschmidt1337/ldparteditor/issues/958 ).

LDPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LDPE on older machines as well.

System Requirements:

Minimum System Requirements:

• OpenGL 2.1 compatible Graphics Card
• Operating System (64-bit): Windows [7 or newer], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]
• CPU: Multicore-Processor e.g. Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon II (>2.0Ghz)
• RAM: 4GB
• Video-Memory: 1 GB
• Free Disk Space: 100 MB

Recommended Requirements:

• Operating System (64bit): Windows 7,8,10, Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]
• OpenGL 3.3 compatible Graphics Card
• CPU: Multicore-Processor with 4 cores (or more)
• RAM: >4 GB
• Video-Memory: >1 GB
• Free Disk Space: 512 MB
• For a faster start, the LDraw™ library should be installed on a SSD.

PS: I am still busy with the creation of the manual, so you "have to experiment" with my (complex) software product until you've got the manual.

Changes: With the release of 1.8.66 you are able to...

• ...use the change winding tool (j) on type 2 and type 5 lines, swapping the end points.
• ...have the "verbose" option common to nearly all tools, and be remembered between sessions.
• ...deep inline a subfile and it will mark the end of that subfile, too.
• ...have the CR LF at the end of a line to be included in the selection when you click on a line number.

The following critical issues are fixed:

1. "Merge To Nearest Vertex" recognized condline control points as vertices to merge for.
2. The LDraw library URL was outdated (www.ldraw.org -> library.ldraw.org).
3. 3D scenes only rendered to 1/4 of 3D window in some rare cases.

The following critical issues are fixed:

1. [txt2dat] There was a glitch in "w" top (Arial font, default parameters).
2. [txt2dat] Removed parameter "min angle between line segments" which had no action.
3. [txt2dat] Removed the unnecessary "interpolate flatness" parameter.
