- Tool Copper Thieving - when creating pattern plating masks now the user can select to use only the pads and that's useful when the soldermsk Gerber is actually a copper Gerber
- Tool Copper Thieving - changed the units for plated area from mm2 in cm2 when the app units are Metric
- Calculator Tool - Electroplating Calculator - changing the area will update the current value
- GUI Elements FCDoubleSpinner and FCSpinner: modified the context menu to not allow cut/paste/delete/step_up/step_down when the GUI element is set as Read Only
- removed the "follow" functionality from the Isolation Tool
- created a new application Tool named Follow Tool

- fixed some late issues in Corner Markers Tool new feature (messages)
- upgraded Calculator Tool and added the new parameter is the Preferences
- updated translation strings
- in Corner Marker Tool, will no longer update the current object with the marker geometry but create a new Gerber object
- in Join Excellon functionality made sure that the new Combo Exellon object will have copied the data from source objects and not just references, therefore will survive the delete of its parents
- updated Turkish translation (by Mehmet Kaya)
- updated all the languages except Turkish
- fixed Paint, Isolation and NCC Tools such the translated comboboxes values are now stored as indexes instead of translated words as before

- in CNCJob UI Autolevelling - adding manual probe points now show some geometry (circles) for the added points until the adding is finished
- added multiple algorithms for path optimization when generating GCode from an Geometry object beside the original Rtree algorithm: TSA, OR-Tools Basic, OR-Tools metaheuristics
- added controls for Geometry object path optimization in Preferences
- updated Drilling Tool to use the new settings
