Things I love about the new version:
1. The improved image library. Finally, a really clean, usable library. Although I'd still like to see thumbnails of large imported images rather than a chunk out of the middle of the image, at least the portion showed is larger now, giving us a better chance of visually identifying which image it is. And now with 2-dimensional resizing of the library window, the visible portions of large images also grow or shrink along with the windows. Great work!
2. Proportional resizing of image objects! Holding down the Shift key now constrains images proportionally instead of forcing it to a square.
3. One vote in favor of the new look of the tools palette icons. They are much clearer; I can see at a glance what the new control will look like. Especially helpful for the various styles of menu buttons and scrollbars.
4. The ability to Hide/Reveal graphic objects and paint tools on the tool palette. Brilliant, especially bringing the paint tools onto the same palette with all the others, where they belonged all along.
5. The redesigned documentation. A few quibbles remain, but in general a huge leap forward from its multi-window, screen-gobbling predecessor.
6. Command(control)-alt-click to edit scripts instead of the unnerving command-alt-hover.
I'm sure I'll discover more hits (and some bugs) as I continue to test. All-in-all an impressive release of our favorite development tool.
