Furuno and
Garmin users take note.
302. The big thing here is the option to
rebuild and flush OpenGL Raster Texture Caches.
Otherwise, doesn't look like a very big list.
But there are many, many small bug fixes and performance enhancements which together will hopefully improve the day-to-day useability and
reliability of this Beta Release.
We are getting pretty close to a Releaseable feature set. The Devs will now be looking at some of the more popular Feature Requests for inclusion into the final Production Release. Stay tuned.
Please check and clear your Flyspray issues, if possible
Thanks, and good luck
