Game Configurations window: game configurations can now be disabled. This setting is mostly cosmetic. When a game configuration is disabled, it won't be shown in "game configuration" dropdowns in New\Open Map Options and Map Options windows. If a map's .dbs file specifies a disabled configuration, it will be picked as a map configuration anyway.
Linedefs mode: vertex insert preview logic used Highlight range instead of Stitch range (which is used when draw mode engages).

Texture and height overrides were not applied correctly in some cases.
Preferences form: "Ctrl+Alt+ScrollUp" and "Ctrl+Alt+ScrollDown" dropdown items were setting the shortcut to "Ctrl+Shift+ScrollUp" and "Ctrl+Shift+ScrollDown".
Reverted "Delete Item" action to the way it worked in DB2.
Added "Dissolve Item" action, which works the way "Delete Item" worked in previous revisions of GZDB.
Added "Auto Clear Sidedef Textures" action, "Edit" menu and toolbar button, which toggle automatic removal of sidedef textures when floor or ceiling height is changed or when geometry is drawn, copied or pasted.
Draw Settings panel: upper/lower texture overrides can now be used.
Draw Settings panel: added 2 sets of buttons, which allow to quickly set or clear textures in current selection.
Things are now rendered behind AND on top of the grid/linedefs/vertices when they are dragged.

Visual mode: holding Ctrl-Shift while dragging texture with the mouse will snap texture offsets to current grid size.
Classic modes: interiors of highlighted sectors are now highlighted when the action target of currently highlighted map element is sector.
Unhandeled exceptions infos are now written to the event log.
Angle control (the newer, photoshop-like one): left-clicking inside the control now clamps angle to 45-degree increments. Right-clicking inside the control sets precise angle.
Thing Edit Form: replaced angle control with newer one.
Classic modes: fixed minor rendering artifacts when drawing thing direction arrow.
Fixed a possible crash when rendering thing arrows in classic modes caused by incorrect vertex buffer size calculation.
Reverted changes to texture\flat access when "mixtexturesflats" option is set to true in game configuration.
Location and active tab of all Edit Forms are now stored while GZDB is running.
Focus management between editing window and the rest of the interface should work better now.
