Time for another development release.
A reminder on how the releases are named:
Releases named 1.1.x (such as 1.1.15) are development releases that contain both new features and bug fixes. A development release may also contain new bugs despite the efforts of us developers and the brave users that help us to test the snapshot releases.
Releases named 1.0.x (such as 1.0.2 that was released last week) are stable releases that have the same features as the 1.0 release, but fewer bugs.
Enjoy!

- It was not possible to load JPEG, PNG, or GIF images (either
as textures or using the Image Plane commands) on Snow Leopard.
(Thanks to Riolan and nobrandname.) [bjorng]
- The Tools|Virtual Mirror|Create command will now
automatically flatten the virtual mirror face. [bjorng]
- The Select|Edge Loop|Edge Loop To Region command will
now allow virtual mirror and hole edges to close an edge loop.
(Suggested by FonteBoa.) [bjorng]
- Combine and Separate became much slower in 1.1 if there
were many objects in the scene. This has been corrected.
(Thanks to ycarry.) [dgud/bjorng]
- Select by material is now much faster for big objects with
more than one material. (Thanks for ycarry for noticing the
slowness.) [bjorng]
- Gordo has designed new (much nicer) install and uninstall icons
for the installer on Windows. [bjorng]
- Undoing a change of UV coordindates would not update the
AutoUV window. (Thanks to no204.) [bjorng]
- Creating a new Geometry window and moving the mouse cursor
over the toolbar of the new window before doing anything else would
cause Wings to crash. (Thanks to BlackHarmo.) [bjorng]
- Area lights can now be selected from both sides, not only
from the front face. (Thanks to Micheus.) [bjorng]
- Newer LWO files may contain a sub form of POLS called SUBD.
Unfortunately, I have found no description on how to interpret those
forms. If you happen to know how to interpret those forms, please
post a message in the Programming forum. The LWO importer will now
quit with an error message instead of crashing when encountering
ae SUBD form. (Thanks to Siber.) [bjorng]
- Fixes to Sweep. (Thanks to BlackHarmo and Fonte Boa). [optigon]
- Windows could appear above the visible screen area. Now some code
checks for this as windows are loaded and moves them within the visible
range. [optigon]
