Other miscellaneous fixes

---

1.3.5

Another big one!

Feature - Duplicate Snapshots! You can now duplicate some or all of the mix passes in a Snapshot. It works the same way editing multiple passes works, as introduced in 1.3.0, but the proceed button says Duplicate and it does just that. You can change any parameters you want while duplicating, and of course go back and edit later. The duplicated passes will be placed in a new snapshot for the session. The toolbar has been update to include a Duplicate button.

Fix - Error clicking Capture Selection now fixed
Fix - should be better at dealing with the All Groups dialog if it opens when it shouldn't

And a lot of small things under the hood and some annoyances.

Enjoy!

---

1.3.0

This is a big one! Lots of fixes and a very cool new feature.

IMPORTANT: If you are right in the middle of a project, maybe hold off on updating until you're finished. I've tested the new code extensively, but there's a lot going on so I could have missed something. Read on!

Smaller stuff first:
Fix: Be better about keeping the screen alive while bouncing long material
Fix: Text input in Take Snapshot dialog could be sluggish even with Undo pref turned off
Fix: Make sure mp3 filenames are changed when changing bounce filenames with find and replace
Fix: Delete After Bounce wasn't working in some circumstances
Improvement: Add Icons for User Key Command Template

Slightly bigger stuff:
Fix: The user's session view was not always being properly restored
Fix: Session Snapshots app works again!

The big one!

Feature: Now you can edit snapshots using the Take Snapshot window, so you can edit every parameter! Select any or all Mix Passes in a Snapshot, click Edit and you will be taken to a modified version of the Take Snapshot page. Parameters that are not the same for all mix passes will be flagged as '(multiple)', but you can still change them if you wish. Using this edit mode it's very fast to customize mix passes within a Snapshot to, for example not have all mix passes export copies, only have the main mix pass at 32 bit, the rest at 24 bit etc etc etc. You can do find and replace filename changes. You can also just edit a single mix pass in the same dialog, giving you access to all of the bounce and export parameters. Along with the importing and exporting of mix passes while taking Snapshots, the entire process is much more powerful, flexible and streamlined!

This also lays the groundwork for being able to Duplicate a Snapshot and all of its mix passes and then, for instance, just change the timeline selection.
