release 4.0.26


Well; Dan came back from his cruise and has checked in his new code.
This release is courtesy of Dan Kulp.


Dan made a youtube video explaining how the new feature works.


Very Cool Dan!




Dan Wrote: "Earlier, I posted a teaser screenshot of the node/strand effect editing that I was working on. I'm now back from vacation and was able to push all the changes to github and got enough stuff working to create a short (17 minutes, so not really short) introduction of what I'm trying to do with it and what currently works (and what doesn't, found a bug while recording):"

watch the video to learn the new capability. Basically, you can now expose the channels that make up a model and drop different effects on each.


Possibilities expand!

Very nice! While not a full blown grid editor, this will open up a whole new world in xl for pixel editing. Great job.
Thanks to everyone for all their hard work!
