slash is removed from the path name when Save dialog returns the
file name in the function wings_file:export_filename_1/2(after

- Values for Sliders and Text Entry Boxes with numeric
data can be increasd/decreased with the Scroll wheel.

values using the scroll wheel within dialogs.
[optigon]
- Move edges along normal fix. [optigon]
- Added constraints to Sculpt mode menu. [optigon]
- Fixed the wrong selection of elements when using the option
Material->Select in the Outline window if selection mode isn't Face
or Body. Also, its context menu supports multiple options and it was
added two new options: "Add to selection" and "Remove from
selection". (Thanks to deerwood that reported the bug and suggested
the new options) [Micheus]

RMB
- With a group selected:
- above it self or in empty area: Delete/ Delete Invalid Groups;
- above another group: Delete/ Delete Invalid Groups/ Union/ Subtract/ Intersect;
- Without a group selected and none selection in Geo win:

to make possible all windows used in a plugin be saved/restored
automaticly; updated wpc_sel_win.erl in order to use the new
resource, saving and restoring its placement on Wings
desktop. [Micheus]
- Added constraints to Sculpt mode menu. [optigon]
- Fixed the wrong selection of elements when using the option
Material->Select in the Outline window if selection mode isn't Face
or Body. Also, its context menu supports multiple options and it was
added two new options: "Add to selection" and "Remove from
selection". (Thanks to deerwood that reported the bug and suggested
the new options) [Micheus]
- Added Select|By|Name option in which selections using a matching name can be made by combining the "*" wildcard.
Added new options for Renaming objects in the Geometry Graph window:
LMB -> "Rename selected objects" (the current option)
MMB -> "Rename all selected objects" (the option already enabled in Body mode)
RMB -> "Rename objects filtered using a mask for name" (new option)
Now, Rename objects can be applied to several object at once, by
using a selection or a search mask (like *box*). Also, the new name
has a sequential number appended to it or placed in a defined
position by using the "%" wildcard. It's possible to define the
starter number by puting it between two "%" character (like:
Cube%100%). [Micheus]
- Added two new options: Remove Invalid groups and Delete All groups.[Micheus]
- It was improved the Image Plane resource by adding a dialog box for
enter options like: location, rotation around origin, lock it after

(suggested by Caverman)
Fixed the bad display of values for the columns Volume and Area in the Tools->Scene Info. (thanks to ggaliens)
[Micheus]
- Fixed the crash when exporting an object converted to light
(Object as area light). Thanks to sandman for report. [Micheus]
- Fixed a bug when exporting an object converted to area light and that has hard edges. Thanks oort. [Micheus]
- Added the ip_helper image to the projectsources. [Micheus]

LMB -> "Rename selected objects" (the current option)

Now, Rename objects can be applied to several object at once, by
using a selection or a search mask (like *box*). Also, the new name
has a sequential number appended to it or placed in a defined
position by using the "%" wildcard. It's possible to define the
starter number by puting it between two "%" character (like:
Cube%100%). [Micheus]
