Hello all,

Version 4.3 adds new navigational controls which should be especially
helpful when producing videos of your solutions.

Release notes:

• Added new Edit menu commands:
  * Goto Beginning (ctrl+left arrow) - Like undo all the way to the
  beginning or scramble boundary but without animation.
  * Goto End (ctrl+right arrow) - Like redo all the way to the end
  but without animation.
  * Play (ctrl+P) - Like Goto End with animation.
  
• Solve (ctrl+L, aka "Cheat") no longer converts macro moves into
  regular moves and won’t erase scramble boundary if cancelled (esc)
  before animation reaches that point.
  
• Improved "Congratulations" dialog for full solutions and only show it
  for new solutions to large puzzles.
  
• Many fixes and improvement related to the above including issue #102.
  Thanks Ray!

The new version is not yet publicly linked from the main MC4D page
because it is only lightly tested, so I’d appreciate it of some of you
would try it out as soon as possible and let me know if you find any
problems. Here’s the direct link:

Thanks all, and happy puzzling!
