What's new in Ultra Fractal 6.01?

• Updated the render to disk code to limit the amount of memory used while rendering, which also affects the size of temporary files and render backup jobs (*.URJ files).
• Fixed a bug in the formula compiler that could cause the bailout condition of a formula to work incorrectly in arbitrary precision mode (when not using perturbation calculations).
• Fixed a crash on Mac when restoring the position of a fractal window (e.g. when opening a previously opened fractal) that causes it to move to a different monitor.
• Fixed a bug that caused the fractal to recalculate when minimizing and then restoring a maximized fractal window on Windows.
• Fixed strange behavior when changing the size of a fractal in a maximized fractal window on Windows with the Resize with Window option enabled.
• Added Ctrl+L and Ctrl+A shortcuts (Cmd+L and Cmd+A on Mac) to the gradient editor and made sure the gradient editor gets the focus when clicking in a curve if it is docked to a fractal window, so keyboard shortcuts actually work. Added Shift+Ctrl+E shortcut for the eyedropper as well.
• Fixed a bug that could cause the save confirmation dialog to disappear behind another document window on Windows, making the program appear to be unresponsive.
• Fixed a bug that caused the eyedropper/explore icons to not show up beneath input boxes in floating tool windows.
• Fixed a bug that caused a crash when creating a docked Timeline tool window on a High DPI system on Windows.
• Fixed a crash on Mac when pressing Cmd+N with no document windows open.
• Fixed crashes on Windows when using OpenGL acceleration with unstable graphics drivers: in this case OpenGL acceleration is now automatically disabled.
• Fixed a bug on Mac that caused dragging of e.g. the selection box in the fractal window to not work at all on MacBook Pros with pressure-sensitive trackpads.
• Fixed a bug that caused incorrect keyboard behavior in the Find Entries window.
• Fixed bug that caused the Shift+F9/F10 shortcuts for the tool windows not to work.
• Fixed a possible crash when switching between tabs in the Layer Properties tool window after deleting a layer or closing a fractal.
• Small bug fixes and improvements.
