Notes
This release adds a new Show in Properties Bar option for instance variables. This can be unchecked to hide the corresponding property in the Properties Bar. This can be useful for instance variables that are only used in event sheets - there's no need for those to be listed for object properties, and so you can tidy up the list a bit by hiding the ones you don't need to show there.
There's also a new chooseindex system expression, which lets you return one of the following parameters from a zero-based index. For example chooseindex(1, "foo", "bar", "baz") will return "bar".
We also have a batch of bug fixes, and worked around two bugs in the latest Safari 16 update. In particular if you were having trouble with Remote Preview in iOS 16, it should be working better now; if you still have issues try clearing your browser cache and then try again.
