Hello Nicolas and all
One option to select all parameters, like email.
Its great when we want to randon just one or two parameters,
so we select all and select off the parameter that will be
changed.
Sorry my bad English.
Thanks form Brasil.
Gerson.

> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> NEW FEATURES
>
> - New Saturation parameter for all modes
> - Anti-Alias optional for all modes
> - Opacity optional for Solid Mode
> - Quark equation was added
> - Background color for Light and Plasma modes
>

> FIXES

> - Gradient name wasn't cleared when gradient was randomized or reversed
> - Closing a project while animating would crash the program
> - View wasn't cleared when no attractor found on fast computers
>

> MISCELLANEOUS
>
> - Sliders thumb is resized properly when property is selected
> - Recent files list in File menu

> Added to these are "work-in-progress" features, which aren't fully

>
> - Dual threaded rendering (90% done)
> - Caching of rendered attractors in RAM
> - Perspective
> - New coloring engine (with ability to switch off gradients)

> Other features to appear in 0.4:
>
> - Super sampling
> - Color perspective (haze)
> - Color editor
> - Gradient editor/browser
> - Timed rendering
> - Rendering stopped when specific amount of frustum hits is reached
> - Light editor, interface to position lights in Solid mode
> - Export attractor to ASCII
> - Undo (maybe!)
> - New equations
>
> As far as 3D is concerned Peter has exclusive use to the specific 3D
