New features:

  • Linking: Allows one object to be positioned relative to another object, so it moves/scales/rotates/etc with it.
  • Scaling X/Y independently: You can now strech objects vertically or horizontally, not just zoom them in general
  • Allow skewing of objects
  • Little buttons ("Grabbies") that allow scaling and rotating objects with mouse/touch

Changes:

  • The X/Y position of all objects is now relative to their center
    • Previously different object types used them differently
  • Height and width can only be changed for custom textboxes, consoles and paperless poems.
    • Previously, they acted like a second zoom property for sprites (which is now replaced with "scale") and characters, and just did nothing for others
  • Height of textboxes now includes the namebox
  • Textboxes are now style "Custom" by default, making it easier for users to discover you can resize and recolor them
  • Textboxes and poems don't allow text to overflow by default anymore. This improves performance on devices with little RAM. (cough iPhones cough)

Fixes:

  • Allow using fonts with spaces in their name
  • Allow reimporting backgrounds when loading a save
