Interface

The program is gradually changing, so its appearance depends entirely on the version used. At the moment, the creators have darkened the main screen, this was done not for greater effect, but so that the user was able to fully concentrate on the task at hand. The image is better seen on a black background.

If this option was inconvenient, it is possible to return to the familiar version, it has a light gray color within the working window. To switch, you need to activate the keys Ctrl+F2, you can also do this through the tab on the editing, and then you need the item installation and interface.
