Added option for different X/Y and Z axis movement speeds (make sure to update/verify these settings!)
Updated default retraction and movement speeds to improve print quality
Added extra skirt outline to M2 profile to ensure stabilized flow prior to starting model
Slower initial retraction for anchor point when starting a print
Fixed bug where some temperatures might not be parsed from G-Code file depending on firmware settings

Fixed bug where Temperature Monitoring could be inadvertently left on, interrupting startup communication
Minor fixes for Z-lift retraction moves

Version 1.0.7

Added experimental support for 250000 baud rate (requires you have appropriate drivers already installed)
Further optimization to G-Code file size and overhead communication
Rework of USB serial communication to take full advantage of microcontroller serial cache
Added automatic reset for older boards (like Gen6 electronics) that do not restart when a new serial connection is initiated
Emergency stop button has been improved to also restart older boards
Added new G-Code configuration variable for startup command to better support other firmwares
Added global X/Y offsets specifically to help with Delta style printers where zero position is at center of table
Small bug was fixed for bridging calculations with multiple internal cutouts
Added option to import and export manual support structures
Factory files also now include support structures in their all-inclusive format
STL parser has been updated to handle a wider variety of multi-solid files
Previewer has been updated to better handle relative movements (i.e. jogging)
Added 10cm lift and X-axis homing to M2 profile ending G-Code (avoids hot nozzle sitting on top of part)
Manual Support and Cross Section dialogs now stay on top of other windows
Better handling of out of memory errors for large previews
Improvements for activation routine
Improved debugging tools for serial communication

Version 1.0.6

Added ability to upload files directly to SD card via USB
Added build time estimate to progress bar when printing from USB
Added Quick Start Guide to installer and help menu (Linux users can find this in the install directory)
Added ability to modify vertical (Z) offset to account for slightly incorrect endstop positioning
Updates to internal slicing engine
Improvement to ensure outer layer solidity
Improved path optimization for models with multiple cascading cutouts
More path optimization improvement for lots of small infill segments
Improvement to circular arc detection for G2/G3 commands
Improvement for solid ceiling/floor detection
Can now enter negative extra restart distances for retraction settings
Added fallback mechanism for firmware response timeouts (Force Next button)
Slight improvement for build estimation times with slowdown cooling enabled
Several small optimization improvements for memory intensive meshes and builds
Updated default Machine Control Panel extruder and bed set temperatures
Swapped default mouse scroll wheel zoom direction to match most users preferences, previous users may need to toggle this again
Removed user-defined parallel line tolerance, functionality is still there, but tolerance is not variable
Fixed an intermittent error where UI temperature monitoring would stop working after the end of a build
Fixed error where Previewer would crash with specific number of retraction movements
Fixed incorrect temperature scaling when monitoring temperatures over 200 degrees

Version 1.0.5

Overhaul of available cooling options, see entire Cooling tab
Fixed order of M104/M140 commands during preheat
Added option to toggle perimeter printing direction (outside-in vs inside-out)
Improved skirt generation by removing unnecessary interior loops
Added automatic sorting to per-layer temperatures and per-layer fan speeds
Updated M2 profile to leave case fans on after print
Added extra options for top and bottom solid layers
Improved Image to STL conversion process, fixed flipped images
Limited custom jog distance to positive numbers to avoid double negative movement commands
Added numeric temperature readouts to Machine Control Panel
Changed scroll direction for temperature graph
Added an OFF button for both the extruder and bed heaters
Added visual indicator for jog wheel movement directions
Added option to change scroll wheel zoom direction
Added option to disable resetting the view with the middle mouse button
Improved Windows installer to automatically detect and install Visual C++ Redistributable package
Added new Linux 64-bit compiled version of Creator
Clarified instructions for deactivating an existing installation
Added recent path remembering for all remaining file operations
Added version number to About dialog

Version 1.0.4

Addressed bug that caused erratic movement when monitoring temperatures during an active build over USB
Added custom macro buttons to Machine Control Panel that can be configured in the Firmware Configuration dialog
Streamlined workflow to automatically go from Preview to Print
Added automatic suggestion for G-Code filenames
Corrected bug with .factory files so duplicate models and FFF processes are restored correctly
Made it easier to do positive and negative custom moves in the Machine Control Panel
Interface now remembers the last directory used and starts there when browsing for files
Removed extra blank lines from G-Code files that were causing issues in some 3rd party programs

Version 1.0.3

Fixed bug where FFF settings may not export properly after certain changes
Fixed close button bug with Linux-only Machine Control Panel dialog
Added new MakerGear M2 profile
Improved default FFF settings for various materials
Improved G-Code header

Version 1.0.2

Jog defaults updated to work better with M2 hardware
Bed temperatures now preheat before the nozzle to avoid baking plastic for too long
Fixed a non-critical Mac-only installation error

Version 1.0.1

First Public Release!
