This update for the software introduces improved system reliability, enhancements to the user interface, and better tools for data management (compared to stable version 8.9.2):

• A new panel and resource monitor have been added to the interface to track the usage and lifetime of resources such as Maps, Tables, and LookupTables during task execution.

• A new functor called “Calculate Lookup Table Keys And Values” allows you to create lookup tables by defining specific rules to calculate keys and their corresponding values.

• The system can now identify if a repeating task (loop) is capable of running multiple steps at the same time to save time.

• An icon and improved descriptions have been added to the Explorer panel to show you at a glance if a task supports this simultaneous execution.

• A new setting allows you to rebuild category data from images while keeping your stored categories and removing unnecessary ones.

• The software now automatically updates the file extension (such as .png) in the name box when you select a different file type while saving or opening files.

• You can now choose which columns are visible in the resource monitor, and the system will remember your settings for refreshing the data table.

• Helpful pop-up descriptions have been added to the columns in the Explorer panel to better explain what the data represents.

• You can now narrow your searches to look specifically for tools (functors) within the Explorer, Issue, and Library panels.

• Navigation through tables is now smoother with fixed support for keyboard shortcuts like Shift+Tab.

• Errors now provide more detailed feedback by identifying exactly which part of a task caused the problem.

• The interface has been updated to display these detailed error messages more clearly.

• A bug that caused missing category colors has been resolved by correcting the order in which the software processes data.

• The setting “useCellCenterOnly” has been fixed to behave as intended while remaining compatible with older projects.

• Several tool names have been updated for better consistency, such as renaming “Calculate Lookup Table” to “Calculate Lookup Table Values”.

• Improvements have been made to prevent crashes during large tests and to ensure the software handles empty inputs more accurately.

Analogy for Understanding Resource Tracking: Think of the new Resource Monitor like a dashboard in a car. Instead of just knowing the car is running, you can now see exactly how much fuel (Maps), oil (Tables), and electricity (LookupTables) each part of the engine is using at any given moment, helping you understand if everything is running efficiently.
