1.17.1.2 Is now updated to the stable branch. While there are some new features, the point of this update is to patch some critical bugs in 1.17. The new features listed here (mainly the palette mixer) aren't fully implemented yet and should be treated as beta.

• Color, Palette, and canvas nodes now use global color.

Interface

• Loading the already opened project will close the current project and refresh the file.
• New file explorer panel

• [Color Panel] Improve UI visibility.
• [Color Panel] Add an option to disable the alpha, palette.
• [Color Panel] Add hexadecimal value display.
• [Preview Panel] Increase maximum zoom to x1024.
• [Graph Panel] Dragging a junction from a node inside an inline group will create a new node inside the same group.
• [Graph Panel] You can now connect junctions of the same IO type (output to output, input to input) to transfer the connection from one junction to another.
• [Graph Panel] Ungrouping the node now centers the ungrouped nodes around the original group.
• [Inspector Panel] Add the ability to copy color hex code directly.
• [Inspector Panel] Improve palette and gradient widget.

• Add node annotation.
• All seed values now come with a randomize button.
• Collection-based loop is deprecated, inline loop is now the default way to loop values.
• Dynamic input nodes now use dummy junctions for adding new data.
• [Supporter] New Pentagonal tile node.

• [3D] The Rotation tool will now be disabled in the Euler unit.
• [Dither] Add noise mode.
• [Dither] Add auto palette option.
• [Path builder] Now accept path anchor input (it doesn't before, huh).
• [Posterize] Improve auto palette algorithm.

• [JSON IO] Remove the ability to build, and read specific keys.
• [Shape] Add diamond, trapezoid, parallelogram shapes.
• [Particle, VFX] Add animation stretch setting.
• [Curve] Add alpha curve.
• [Path] Now use linear interpolation for segments without control points.

Bugs
