Version 1.3 Notes
-----------------
1) Completely reworked the user interface:
- Moved X-Y Coordinates to a separate window
- Added keyboard equivalents
- Controls window is now smaller than in previous versions
- Auto-redraw no longer happens when the draw window is resized
2) Added the "Plasma" fractal type
3) Added the Save functionality
-----------------
Version 1.2 Notes
-----------------
1) Added a few optimizations which increased rendering speed
The Mandelbrot and Julia fractal types are especially faster than before!
2) Fixed bug where the Draw window's max dimensions were limited to 640x400.
Should now be whatever the default Public Screens dimensions are
3) Reworked entire user interface:
- Added "Pause" button/functionality
- Changed Zoom Out level-selection from slider gadget to cycle gadget
- Added "help text" in screen banner for Draw/Pause/ZoomIn/Center
functions
- Added "smart iconify" ("I" button) functionality for the Controls
window
- Added "About" button/functionality
4) Rendering will now automatically begin upon the following actions:
- Draw window resizing
- Zoom Out button selection
- After picking the "lower right-hand" corner of a Zoom In action
-----------------
Version 1.1 Notes
-----------------
1) Added five new fractal types
2) Added the ability to cancel an in-progress "Draw" via the new "Stop"
button
3) Modified the existing "Center" function so that it operates more
"graphically" (via a cross-hair in the Fractal drawing window)
4) Added more gadget "disabling" during Zoom/Center functions to help
the user not get things confused
5) Slight reworking of the Control window layout
6) Corrected flaw in Control window which kept it from being Iconfied
or Menufied for those like me who use the PD programs bearing the
same names
7) Changed position of the "window resize" gadget in the Fractal drawing
window (MUCH nicer looking now!)
