Other things: • New Feature: You can now import a Wotja or Noatikl file from the clipboard to create a new mix using the Document screen 'Add New' button (all) or the 'File > New' Menu (desktop) • Improved: "Randomisation Presets" are now called "Randomisation Schemes"; “Music Mix (Automatic)” is now Mix (Automatic)”; "Export Wotja to Clipboard" is now "Export Mix to Clipboard"; "Export Wotja with Image" is now "Export Mix with Image" • UI Improvement: Check boxes now filled with Green, rather than with Blue • "Free Mode" Improvement: Mix Editing mode now allows exporting to clipboard of both Mixes and ISE Sound Networks • Fixed: Mix Editing mode > Action menu > Export Wotja to clipboard no longer causes a crash • Fixed: Mixdown recordings now made correctly when using Audio Block size of 2048 • Fixed: Other bug fixes Enjoying Wotja?
