Hi,

This is the release candidate too. The main concern was stability and bug fixes. We found some really nasty bugs so this version should better fit as a final release version.

What issue is still open ?

- One concern about blending quality in the multiband. In some case, we can have artifact appearing. We already have a solution candidate but we prefer to take more time on testing before release.
- some small UI bugs that are not blocking the release version

Main changes

- NEW : Reworked update manager with handling of beta version
- NEW : Some translations already integrated
- FIX : Crash when using PSD / PSB output with integrated layer
- FIX : Wrong panorama when reading / writing .pano from old release version, 2.5 beta series
- FIX : 32 bits versus 64 bits version optimization issue ( wrong RMS on 32bits versions )
