                    Notes
                    In this release we've made some improvements to search. Both the Find all references and Find results bars now have a toolbar along the top. With Find all references you can now use an extra search field to filter down the results, such as to filter all references to just those including the term collision. The Find results bar now has two search fields - a primary search term and a secondary one that again filters down the returned results. The results now also update live as you type, and the 'Find' dialog has been removed completely in favor of just showing the bar. This should make the experience of searching in large projects much better.
We've also added stereo panning features to the Audio object. Despite having positioned sound support for a long time, Safari only added support for stereo panning in Safari 14.1. Now that's been out a while we're able to finally fill in this gap and provide per-sound stereo panning as a simpler alternative to positioned sound.
There are also further improvements to the Ease editor, including the option to edit built-in eases; there's also a new expression on Timeline Controller to access ease curves directly. A few scripting improvements are included too, in particular support for autocompleting public and private property names from class fields, which are a relatively new JavaScript feature. And as ever, a number of bug fixes too!
