| - | **Note:** On Macintosh and Linux, if you already have Zerene Stacker installed and are downloading a new version to update it, then you need to manually move the old version to trash, and move or rename the new version to replace it. Otherwise both versions will continue to be available, and you will run whichever one you happen to click on. For further information, see the **[[stacker:docs:faqlist|FAQS]]** on "Installing and Updating". On Mac, when trashing out the old version, do __**NOT**__ allow any third party uninstaller or cleanup applications like "AppCleaner" to run. In their enthusiasm to eliminate files that they think are not used, they're likely to also delete files you really do need, like your license key and Zerene Stacker configuration files. | ||
| - | Compared to the earlier beta T201712172018_beta, this T2018-07-19-1515_beta contains the following improvements: | ||
| - | * User Interface | ||

| - | * Automatically adapt image displays for high DPI monitors if using JRE 10, so that 100% scale means 1 image pixel = 1 physical display pixel. | ||
| - | * Added "Nearest Neighbor" interpolation method, to facilitate registration of test images. | ||
| - | * Log the nominal HDPI scaling factor obtained from GraphicsConfiguration. | ||
| - | * Added configuration file option "AlignmentControl.UseMaximumPrecisionRules=true" . | ||
| - | * StackShot: added new hotkeys J and K to allow stepping backward and forward by Palette Gear knob. | ||

| - | * Bug fix: | ||
| - | * On Mac, Save Output Image with native file chooser usually did not warn of impending over-writing. | ||
| - | * Automatically retry if system native file chooser returns too quickly (typically because it did not appear at all). | ||
| - | * Automatically revert to JFileChooser if system native file chooser does not work after retries. | ||
| - | * Silently ignore null parameter settings, for example as sometimes produced by BugSlabber. | ||
| - | * Allow certain formats of float-32 source images. | ||
| - | * Explicitly report failure to write license key if a generic "uh-oh" dialog has appeared. | ||
| - | * Make output naming tag {sourcefolder} play nice with Lightroom plugin. | ||
