• Many improvements in the application framework (about 150)
  • Fixed license agreement window not appearing on top of other windows
  • Translate Ctrl, Shift, Alt to the correct keyboard sign for Mac OS X
  • Added SettingPanel#getLabel that can also handle tooltips
  • If Flat IntelliJ look and feel is selected -> unlock the possibility to provide an IntelliJ Theme
  • Improved quality of taking a screenshot of a component

  • Catch possible error when getting the clipboard data flavor
  • Fixed start-up error if FlatLaf not in classpath
  • Added possibility to skip entering the license key the first day of the installation
