Dear List Members.

We are pleased to announce the release of LiveCode 6.7 DP5.

* Warning, this is a pre-release with new features which have the potential
to cause issues. Please ensure you backup your stacks before testing this
release.*

*Important Changes*
- We’ve most to cocoa API’s on MacOS X. As a result, windowing related
activities on Mac are subject to change. If you are testing on Mac we would
encourage you to focus on windowing, window shapes, shortcuts, copy/paste
and drag/drop.
- All multimedia playback functionality now uses the AVFoundation player on
Mac by default. If you are using multimedia in your MacOS X apps we would
encourage you to test this functionality.

*Release Focus*
1) Bug fixes 127

*Release contents*
The number of bugs fixed is so large that it no longer makes sense to
include a summary in the release email. Instead, please look at the bug fix
section of the release notes which can be found here:

*Known issues*
ANDROID - There is a colour swap issue with gradients on Android. This has
already been fixed and will be available in the next build of LiveCode 6.7.

*Getting this release*
LiveCode 7.0 is not yet part of the auto-update process yet. We'll add it
once 7.0 once we enter the RC cycle. For the time being we're looking to
our more experienced community members to help with initial testing by
downloading directly at:

*Feeding Back*
If you find an issue in this release, please report a bug at
quality.runrev.com.

Warm regards,

The LiveCode Team
