Animation can be previewed directly in the main window.

Added support for Groovy scripting language. Refactored raytracer to be usable from scripts and plugins. Replaced Text script with a much better Text modelling tool. Changed the behavior of the Rotate View tool to be more intuitive. Lots of improvements to implicit objects. Render settings are saved as part of the scene. Added "Detach Points from Bone" command.
