The editor will fail more gracefully when no D3D device is detected.
In some cases the editor was constantly checking D3D device availability when minimized.
Added more DX-related debug output (only in Debug builds).
Sector Edit Form (UDMF): sector brightness value was processed incorrectly when relative value was entered.
Internal: added "ButtonStepsWrapAround" property to ButtonsNumericTextbox.
Internal, SectorEditFormUDMF: more changes to Slopes tab. Still not operational...
Internal: UDMF sector slopes and offsets are no longer stored in sector.Fields. Use sector.FloorSlope, sector.FloorSlopeOffset, sector.CeilingSlope and sector.CeilingSlopeOffset.

SCRIPTS lump was not saved when saving a map.
BCC script compiler (https://github.com/wormt/bcc/) is now bundled with GZDB.
Main Form, "File" menu: only existing files are now added to the "recent files" list.
Preferences: added "Capitalize texture names" option (located in Preferences -> Appearance -> Additional options). When disabled, the casing of displayed texture names will match filenames for textures loaded form TEXTURES or pk3/pk7/folder resources.
Textures Browser: added support for displaying long texture names.
Errors list is now cleared when reloading resources.
Visual mode: added basic support for sector slopes (no UI for that feature yet).

Draw Curve Mode: added settings panel.
Sectors mode: added "Make Door" button to the toolbar.
Swapped Side panel and Info panel z-order.

Interface: added "Draw [stuff]" buttons to modes toolbar.
Interface: reorganized main menu. Hope it makes more sense now.
API: added General.Interface.AddModesButton() and General.Interface.AddModesMenu(), which can be used to add buttons to specific group in "Modes" toolbar and menu items to specific group in "Modes" menu, so actions, which behave like an editing mode, but are not part of one can be added there.
Game Configurations: added "fixedrotation" property to "Polyobject Anchor" (9300), "Polyobject Start Spot" (9301), "Polyobject Start Spot (crush)" (9302) and "Polyobject Start Spot (hurts to touch)" (9303) actors.

When no configuration is enabled, a message was supposed to be shown after startup. Now it actually shows up.
Several configurations were missing from the "Configurations" folder.
Configurations: all 64 game configuration are now available by default.
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).

Rewritten parts of hints system. Hints are now loaded from "Hints.cfg" file.
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.

These changes were made in previous commit. I just forgot to write info about them:
Classic modes: going to Draw modes when Edit button is pressed when nothing is highlighted can be disabled in Preferences -> Editing -> "Start drawing when Edit pressed over empty space in Classic modes".
Classic modes: removed Preferences -> Editing -> "Try to align horizontal tex. offset of dragged geometry", because it was more confusing than helpful...
Visual mode: changed "Move Texture Left/Right/Up/Down by 8" actions to "Move Texture Left/Right/Up/Down by cur. grid size"
Visual mode: holding Ctrl-Shift while dragging texture with the mouse will snap texture offsets to current grid size.

Visual mode: fixed a crash when loading a model on a video card without Shader model 2.0 support.
Fixed incorrect argument number and changed most of labels in "Cameras and interpolation" section of zdoom_things.cfg.

Added "GetUserCVar", "SetCVar" and "SetUserCVar" functions to ACS configuration.
Set width and height of several actors to 0 in game configutrations (non-zero sizes were added as a workaround when GZDB was not displaying actors with 0 width and height in Visual mode).

Selection Groups can now be cleared using either Edit -> Clear Group or Ctrl-Shift-[group number] shortcut.
Toolbar button groups can now be toggled using context menu. Hold "Shift" to toggle several button groups at once.
Floor and ceiling textures are now moved more predictably by arrow keys in GZDoom Visual mode.
Walls texture coordinates are always rounded when moved by arrow keys in Visual modes.
Linedef info panel: relative UDMF light values are now shown like this: 16 (128), which means "UDMF light value" ("total surface brightness (UDMF light value + sector brightness)")
Player is now spawned at camera height when testing from current location in Visual modes.
Focus is now properly restored after testing from current location in Visual modes.

Elements list wasn't updated when map element was deleted.
Pugin wasn't disposed properly, which may led to Doom Builder 2 crash on map close.
Fixed plugin crash after opening another map.
Fixed unresponsive text entry in Filter text box.
Fixed plugin crash when Doom Builder can't determmine thing category ("UNKNOWN" category will be used instead).
Added "Test Map from current position" action (default shortcut is Ctrl-F9), which lets you play the game from cursor position, if you are in 2D-Mode, and from camera location if you are in Visual Mode.
Added "Sync camera position between 2D and 3D modes" (found in Preferences -> Interface -> Options), which automatically centers 2D-mode on camera position when you leave Visual Mode, and places camera at cursor position when you toggle from 2D-mode to Visual Mode (unless you have Visual Mode camera thing in your map).
