  10. <h3>Version History</h3>
  11.  
  12. <p>&nbsp;<strong>1.4.23</strong><br>
  13. Fixed getObjectFilename not working unless Textstrings were loaded<br>

  36.  
  37. <p>&nbsp;<strong>1.4.21</strong><br>
  38. Reverted to lua 5.0.3 due to a possible bug in lua 5.1 (used in mapwin1420):<br>
  39.   It appears numbers are rounded to nearest whole number in 5.1 meaning scripts<br>
  40.   using writeIntLSB (Export binary file.lua etc) wrote incorrect files<br>
  41.   See the tilemap.co.uk forum for more details<br>
  42. If a lua script has an error, this will now be shown (thanks Merick)<br>

  58.  
  59. <p>&nbsp;<strong>1.4.19</strong><br>
  60. 32bit FMPS now have true alphablend (use onionskin or move graphics from BG to FG field
  61. with 'range edit blocks')<br>
  62. Fixed several lua dialogue functions<br>
  63. Overlap maps (where stagger is 0x0, but blockgap is different from blocksize) now
  64. work properly (use onionskin on a blank layer for transparent overlap), disable
  65. grid for less depth sort artifacts<br>
  66. 'Grab Brush from block sequence' works better, size the Block Window so the area is
  67. aligned, select the top left block, then select the bottom right block, then select
