            There'll be a lot of people that would kiss you lot right now if they could grab hold of you.

            I don't really suffer from it, but as a developer who has to deal with support request: thank you very VERY much! πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘

                  πŸ‘ Nothing has soured my taste for this software more than the greyed menu issue. This is the best news of the year!!!!

                        What's this gray out issue? I'd never heard of or ran into that.

                          It's where having too many plugins caused certain elements in the right click menu to become greyed-out(unusable)

                          Well, maybe not too many plugins but there was some issue within SU that meant if too many plugins were called to use the context menu then other items got greyed out.

                          Anyway it's fixed now so those who have a need to install everything no longer suffer this issue (unless your Pilou and still use v6 πŸ˜‰ )

                          There's also some fixes for the ruby devs that mean less workarounds and bugsplats related to things called observers.

                            I should clarify - eraser no longer works by simply flipping the pen.

                                    Yes.. and I am quite sure the Mac users (and Developers,) will be happy that you attended to the Entities.add_group() slowdown issue.

                                    Thanx for jumpin' on that John !!
