Notes
We've been hard at work reviewing your feedback and making more improvements to the Flowcharts feature. This release includes lots of changes and fixes for Flowcharts, and we know there's more work ahead, so stay tuned for more updates to this over the next releases.
Other changes include some improvements for Text and SpriteFont, SVG Picture, and other general improvements and bug fixes, detailed in the changelog below.
Please note: this is our last scheduled beta release of the year. The team will be taking a well-earned break over the next couple of weeks, during which time there will not be any beta releases and support may be limited. We'll be back to normal in early January.
