Our list of updates is a testament to the development schedule at Land F/X. We tend to implement bug fixes immediately, and we're constantly refining our code – often at a user's request. Many of the updates described on this page consist of exciting new tools or features. However, we also retain this list to inform our technical support team of bug fixes, which in turn allows us to provide better support to users who need it.
