* Cycle mode has been restored, using new table-based *Cycle Controls* to specify changes (motor steps, CFG file loads, and/or other settings) to apply at each _Cycle iteration_
* Operation under 64-bit Windows 7
* A 'Mosaic' macro allows configuration of Cycle for acquisition at multiple, tiled fields-of-view
* Point/Line/Rectangle/Square ROIs all now treated via unified ROI concept, managed in the new *ROI Controls* dialog
* Extended support for User Functions, including USR file bindings and configurable 'override functions'
* Support for a display rolling average, independent of any file frame averaging

{comment}* Display frame averaging now decoupled from file frame averaging{comment}
* Support stack acquisitions centered at the current axial position
* Support for separated XY & Z motor controllers
* Support for secondary Z motor controller, e.g. case of XYZ stage plus additional piezo controller
* Support for Physik Instrumente stage controllers, for standard stack acquisition
* Sub-unity zoom factor values are permitted, in relation to new _ScanAngularRangeReference_ values defined in INI file
* PMT Offset values can now be auto-subtracted from displayed/stored image data, per channel (set in *Image Controls* or *Channels* panels)
* Support for fast scanning, e.g. with AODs or small-angle galvos:
** Line periods of 0.125 and 0.25 ms/line
** Fill fraction range extended from 0.5 to 0.975
** Output sample rates up to 800kHz
* Faster CFG file loading
* Faster Fast Configuration switching
* New _scim_pointLaser()_ utility function
* Option to park scanner between stack slices (e.g. useful when no/insufficient Pockels blanking present)
* Improvements to _scim_openTif()_:
** Support MPEG video creation
** Much faster read times, now using Matlab TIF object instead of imread()
