Hi All, 

I have made some updates to bring Magic Circle Generator even closer to my final vision for it. This update is focused on making the app perform better while making it feel more magical to interact with.  

Here are some of the updates in the new beta versions:

1. Windows BETA build uploaded
2. Sound effects added
   1. You can turn them off on the inside of the cover page
3. Magical Cursor VFX added.  
   1. You can turn them off on the inside of the cover page
      
4. Improved performance of rendering and exporting circles
   1. Post processing has been offloaded to shaders rather than expensive CPU calculations.
   2. Optimized ring hover preview so it doesn't need to re-render the entire circle
   3.  Optimized window resizing so it works better on a vertical monitor 
   4. Optimized switching between tabs/pages
5. Fixed issue with the animation keyframes not re-loading when restoring the previous session's work
6. Long animation exports can now be canceled mid-render 
7. Animation keyframes now re-scale on the timeline when the animation duration changes 
8. Added buttons to jump to the first and last frames in the animation editor
9. Fixed issue with render duration affecting the length of exported video
10. Fixed issue with custom fonts not loading in SVG exports
11. Improved SVG export option to flatten visible geometry into the SVG so that results are more consistent with PNGs.
    1. This should lead to better results in external cutting programs (Preventing missing fonts, not drawing erased lines, etc)
12. Added new Export 2D animation option
13. Added a Name property for individual rings
14. Added a Report Issue popup when the app runs into an issue. 

Thank you again for your feedback and continued support.

Happy casting

PS: I've also started uploading some videos of using the app to Youtube. I hope to add more informational how-to type videos here in the future, but I'm not great at making videos: https://www.youtube.com/@GameDevGoose-RGS/videos
