๐ Features & Tweaks
- You can now organise layers into layer groups by either dragging them or grouping them with the purple button in the Layers menu.
- Holding the shift trigger while grabbing and moving sketch objects will now display a bounding box which can be used to snap to axes and the stage floor, if enabled.

- Selection Mode
- Bounding Box
- Show Gumball
- Select Groups
- Restrict to Mirror
