Hi everyone! Here's what's new in Anyland recently! Thanks all for being in Anyland & giving feedback & suggestions!

- You can now turn around the main dialog and hit the "Create Unplaced" button to "doodle"-create while chatting!

- Shrinking yourself can now go down all the way to 1% (down from 10%), with some special optimizations for that tiny mode! Thanks Axel & Pen & Delco & all D&D fans!

- The "Lower quality graphics" Me-setting now also reduces the amount of objects visible around you, to make things even faster! Thanks Nic!

- You can now use e.g. "When any state starts then become next in 0.5s" to have something be applied to all states of the part! Thanks Kool, Sakhado, Lynk, OP, Spider, everyone!

- There's a new "Mute videos" button near the end of the Me settings! It will turn off the sounds for all videos in that session, but just for you. Thanks Jinx & Nic!

- There's a new base shape, the Quad! It's on the bottom-right of the last shapes page, and is a new type of shape that has only one and fully flat side.

- Useful with the Quad and others, there's a new base material for transparent textures! (Look for the icon showing a cube with a hole in it.) When using this, you can paste PNG images from your Steam artworks, and their alpha channel will make the shape itself transparent! Thanks Toshi & everyone!

- Here's a tip to improve speech command recognition: https://steamcommunity.com/app/505700/discussions/0/3211505894104572792/

- There's a new variant of the "do all creation parts become x" command: "become stopped"! Use it to ignore the start event of the cell you're switching to, halting anmations. Thanks Pen!

- We've increased the maximum size to which you can stretch base shapes during creating, by a massive amount!

- You can now create with automatic symmetry! Thanks Spider & everyone!

- We fixed an issue that occurred when you merged two same things which both used auto-completion! Thanks Thifa, Spider & Walker!

- We fixed an issue with the inventory search keyboard opening at strange angles, and not closing, when you had opened the inventory with your right hand! Thanks Ferny & everyone!

- You can now resize placements! Just context-laser a thing and use the new slider to scale it proportionally (you just need to be area editor, not original creator of the thing).

- The desktop camera recording options are now scriptable! Use the "set camera position/ following" commands. Thanks Jinx!

- The forum speech bubble on the main dialog will now read "New" when there's new comments in any of your boards since last time you checked!

- You can now auto-complete shapes:

- Each inventory page can now hold 100 items (up from 30)! Thanks everyone!

- The characters "(", ")" and "|" are now available to be used in all text creations! Thanks Ferny!

- There's a new Copy & Paste dialog for placements! You can access it from the back of the thing dialog, and use it to selectively copy position, rotation or size. Thanks Frash & Howls!

- There's a new Area -> ... -> Filters dialog that lets you adjust light bloom, saturation, contrast, heat vision and more for your area!

Hope you enjoy!
