38651	IDE > Code Editor	Selecting text and getting the OS X dictionary definition works again.
38847	IDE > Code Editor	Attributes and compatibility settings are NOT retained on a control instance placed on a layout. This make iOS consistent with desktop applications.
39878	IDE > Code Editor	Bug icons are centered using the same metrics as the hit boxes and line folding mechanisms.

14392	IDE > Miscellaneous	Notes are not printed in color.
14427	IDE > Miscellaneous	A note that has _ as the very last character no longer causes issues when loading a text project.

28020	IDE > Miscellaneous	Can define most integer property types for use with Inspector Behaviour.
28113	IDE > Miscellaneous	More updates to text file saving. There are still some changes that will occur like updating editor types in the behaviors sections. These are because old text files left out information and opening a project may update them. The best way to force as many of these to occur at once so your subsequent source control commits are less noisy is to: 1) Make one change (add a space and remove it to one piece of code) 2) Do an Analyze Project and save 3) Commit with all changes and subsequent commits will have a lot less noise as the project has been updated
28402	IDE > Miscellaneous	Tray-only controls do not show size and positioning properties in the Inspector.
29255	IDE > Miscellaneous	Removing one member of a Control Set no longer removes the event list from the Navigator.

39298	IDE > Miscellaneous	The IDE no longer causes an exception when the size of columns uses measurements that do not work for a desktop listbox. For example, measurements like 60px (which work with WebListBox) do not work for the desktop.
39402	IDE > Miscellaneous	Updated the Property/Text icon in the Navigator with a slightly thicker T.
39427	IDE > Miscellaneous	String property editor recognizes changes that are from other means like paste and drag and drop and commits those changes properly.
39506	IDE > Miscellaneous	Cleaned up extraneous separator lines in the View and Window menus on Windows and Linux.
39514	IDE > Miscellaneous	An illegal cast exception when adding a computed property with a name that duplicated that of an existing pair of methods has been fixed.

39712	IDE > Miscellaneous	Changes to web styles save properly in text projects.
39738	IDE > Miscellaneous	Selecting Find Implementors from the contextual menu of an Interface no longer does a second search for the Interface name.

40369	IDE > Miscellaneous	An OutOfBoundsException in the code editor has been fixed.
40401	IDE > Miscellaneous	Restore the behaviour where the first paste of an external item would paste an external (as long as no other external item with that name already existed) and subsequent ones would bring the item in as internal copies. It does this so we avoid have many external items all pointed at the same file on disk (which would be confusing as heck and cause other problems).
40417	IDE > Miscellaneous	Warnings in encrypted items are again ignored. This was a regression from 2015r2.2.
40673	IDE > Miscellaneous	Enter Full Screen no longer shows up twice on OS X 10.11.
40674	IDE > Miscellaneous	Windows in the layout editor don't draw disabled on OS X 10.11.

40907	IDE > Miscellaneous	UTI's that an app accepts are NOT marked as exported any longer (which was horribly wrong).
40981	IDE > Miscellaneous	A NilObjectException that could occur when trying to replace a property value on an object on a layout no longer occurs. Such a change isn't actually permitted and the replace will fail . You have to change the name of the property on the base class.
41049	IDE > Miscellaneous	WebToolbars that are smaller than the total width of all items on them no longer cause errors when trying to edit them.
27023	IDE > Navigator	Controls in arrays sort lexically by name then by control array index. Controls that have been duplicated many times will sort similarly by the base name then the trailing numeric portion.

Changes (54 cases)

Case	Area	Description
6231	Build	Windows/Linux: built apps that include resources now creates a Resources folder which includes the app name in its folder name, just like the Libs folder. You can also rename it to just Resources after the fact, and the framework will find it just like the Libs folder.
40144	Build	Using Xcode 7 and its iOS Simulator is supported now.
18982	Compiler	The Inline68k keyword has been removed. This has done nothing since support for compiling Mac 68k code was dropped and existed only for backwards compatibility.
38391	Compiler	Upgraded to LLVM 3.6.
38731	Compiler	The compiler can now build for 64-bit executables for Windows and OS X.
39414	Compiler	The Linux IDE can now build for Linux x86-64 and Linux ARM.

39769	Framework > iOS	iOSToolButton.Type enum has been renamed to iOSToolButton.Types (note the extra's'). This will break existing code that uses this enum.
