[IMPROVED] Working with a project file with full width images should be faster when resizing the window or the design canvas.

[IMPROVED] Previewing a website will only export the image for the screen type e.g. only a retina image on retina Macs is exported.

[IMPROVED] Shadows are exported as CSS unless you are using a PNG or shape that is anything other than a rectangle.

[IMPROVED] Renaming pages or directories no longer creates a new XML file in the project file, preventing project files from growing very large, very quickly.

[FIX] When duplicating directories with sub pages, the sub pages are now also duplicated.

[FIX] The FaceBook Page Timeline widget now respects the ‘Show Timeline’, ‘Messages’ and ‘Events’ checkboxes.

[FIX] Full width scale to fill images should be exported properly with the scale to fill effect in the browser. The images are exported at the highest possible size.
