LPub3D 2.0 Released

[Trevor Sandy]

Hi all, and especially Trevor,

Thanks for this update!
And all who installed before who found out some bugs and install / run problems that are now fixed :-)

Here are my findings and verdict:
- The render speed is VERY impressive. Pages load quick!
- Choosing a page size from the various standard is nice
- Love to be able to set local page size

One error:
- When I close LPub3D it crashes. Settings are not saved.

Hello Jaco,

Many thanks for your findings. This release was particularly challenging as I took on switching the platform in addition to a significant redesign to enable the LDView single call render. 

I think you may like that it is now possible to freely move callouts on a multi-step page. For me, that was a nice one to do.

Philo also reported the crash on close. This behavior is hard for me to track down as I am on Windows 10 and I have not experienced it - at all. Can you tell me if the crash is consistent, i.e. crashes every time you exit the application or intermittent ? What is your operating system version ?

For the Settings, I deliberately reset the registry to avoid any corruption from settings associated with older versions of LPub3D and this new major version and platform (Qt 5.6 from 4.8 and MSVC versus MinGW release builds). Going forward, configuration settings will not be overwritten.

Cheers,
