Note: Version 1.8 and above now require Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8

Important! Previous versions used DotLiquid for templating support; this library has now been replaced with the more powerful scriban (in liquid-compatibility mode). However, some minor changes to your custom templates may be required.

Regressions

• Fixed a number of crashes due to the introduction of the new colour grid and numeric updown

Breaking Changes

• Replace DotLiquid library with scriban (#492) This may result in some changes being required to custom templates, for example white space might be effected and some filter arguments may require quoting
• Now requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 - this means Windows Vista, Windows 8, Windows 10 1507 and Windows 10 1511 are no longer supported. Supported systems are Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 1607 and above or Windows 11
