Finally!
This version has had a facelift but apart from it having a new look perhaps very little has changed from the user's point of view, the layout is the same as the previous version. What is significant about this version is the code for the GUI has been rewritten so that Seamless uses my own GUI system developed specificaly for it instead of using Microsoft's general purpose GUI system. The code under the bonnet is not only neater now but much more intimately understood and under my control. This should result in faster development and greater reliability on different systems.
Bugs fixed for 2.093:
Import bug.
undo/redo causing a reset to the user's view
the yelow dot representing the pivot point not always updating in the 3d window
This version also has the tool tips back working for the tool bar and in addition to this it now has tips added for the new node bar, tips for the scroll bar and a few tips for the control panel but a lot more tips are yet to be added for all the different control panels.
This version has passed all the robot tests and I have spent days going over some of the tutorials but I know this does not equal a thorough testing. Because seamless has so many features now and because the same thing can be done in a variety of ways and because this version has recently undergone major surgery, be prepared to see a number of new updates of seamless with bug fixes over the coming days.
This is the first official version of seamless to use DirectX 9C instead of DirectX 8.1
All the new graphics for the GUI were created using Seamless3d itself.

I look forward to hearing how this version runs on your system,
fingers crossed
