Major Changes:

Completely new AI engine
New Very Blurry specialty added

Changed CPU/GPU options in preferences
Windows Full Installers come with a “Legacy” version
– This is for people running Windows 8.1 or lower

– Online installer will download components based on the OS it’s run on
Changed how trial flow works
– Trials are now gone, you can now use the app without being logged in
– While not logged in, or if your license is expired, your image will save with a watermark
– Users who own the product should be able to use it offline without a watermark given they’ve logged in once and don’t log out
– If your license is expired, you can still use any version released before the license expired without watermarks (including any bug patches released for that version, even if they come out after the license expired)
Updated the preview panel experience
– Previews no longer block panning, zooming, or switching images
– Auto update preview is now on by default and moved to the preferences panel
– Updating preview while auto update is turned off moved to top bar “Preview” button
– Adds scroll to zoom
Updated image and RAW libraries to their latest versions
– Biggest update is the additional/fixed CR3 support in libraw (change log 26)
