- (Upgrade) AvaloniaUI from 0.10.2 to 0.10.3
- (Change) PrusaSlicer printers: Set 'Light-Off Delay' and 'Bottom Light-Off Delay' to 0 as default to allow UVtools auto-compute the right value once open the file in

- Disable Anti-Aliasing by default
- Change 'Part margin' from 1.5mm to 2.0mm
- Change 'Multiple exposures - Bottom exposure step' default to 0
- Fix a error when generating tests with multiple exposures
- Fix some typos
- **XYZ accuracy test:**
- Change 'Wall thickess' default from 2.5mm to 3.0mm
- (Improvement) Allow compute print time without a lift sequence
* **File formats:**
* PhotonS: Implement the write/encode method to allow to use this format and fix the thumbnail
* VDT: Allow to auto convert the .vdt to the target printer format using the Machine - Notes, using a flag: FILEFORMAT_YourPrinterExtension, for example: FILEFORMAT_CTB
* (Fix) Unable to convert files with no thumbnails to other file format that requires thumbnails
* **Tools:**
* (Add) Re-height: Option to Anti-Aliasing layers
* (Fix) Morph and Blur: The combobox was not setting to the selected item when preform a redo operation (Ctrl+Shift+Z)
* **GUI:**
* (Change) Progress window to be a grid element inside MainWindow, this allow to reuse the graphics and its elements without the need of spawning a Window instance everytime a progress is shown, resulting in better performance and more fluid transaction
* (Improvement) Clear issues when generating calibration tests
* **File formats:**
* Add Voxeldance Tango (VDT)
* Add Makerbase MKS-DLP (MDLPv1)
* Add GR1 Workshop (GR1)
* Add Creality CXDLP (CXDLP)
* When decoding a file and have a empty resolution (Width: 0 or Height: 0) it will auto fix it by get and set the first layer image resolution to the file
* Fix when decoding a file it was already set to require a full encode, preventing fast saves on print parameters edits
* **GUI:**
* When file resolution dismatch from layer resolution, it is now possible to auto fix it by set the layer resolution to the file
* When loading a file with auto scan for issues disabled it will force auto scan for issues types that are instant to check (print height and empty layers), if any exists it will auto select issues tab
* **(Add) PrusaSlicer printers:**
* Creality HALOT-SKY CL-89
* Creality HALOT-SKY CL-60
* (Improvement) Tool - Adjust layer height: Improve the performance when multiplying layers / go with higher layer height
* (Fix) PrusaSlicer Printer - Wanhao D7: Change the auto convertion format from .zip to .xml.cws
* File formats: Sanitize and check layers on encoding/saving file, will thrown a error and prevent the save if found any
* GCode Parser: Do not sanitize the lack of lift height on a file to allow read files back with no lift's on the layers
* CWS: Zips containing files without numbers was interrupting the decode method on first cath (#180)
* Tool - Change resolution: Only manipulate the layer image if the new resolution is different from the image resolution
* **Operations:**
* Force validate all operations on execute if they haven't been before, if validation fails it will show the message error
* Add some utility functions to ease layer and mat allocation in the file
* Layer remove: Disallow to select and remove all layers
* Tool - Edit print parameters: Retract speed wasn't propagating the value to normal layers
* File formats: Better control, set and checking for null/empty thumbnails
* **Core:**
* Fix some improper locks for progress counter and change to Interlocked instead
* Fix a bug when chaging layer count by remove or add layers it will malform the file after save and crash the program with some tools and/or clipboard
* Fix when a operation fails by other reason different from cancelation it was not restoring the backup
* When manually delete/fix issues it will also backup the layers
* **LayerManager:**
* LayerManager is now readonly and no longer used to transpose layers, each FileFormat have now a unique `LayerManager` instance which is set on the generic constructor
* Implemented `List<Layer>` methods to easy modify the layers array
* Changing the `Layers` instance will now recompute some properties, call the properties rebuild and forced sanitize of the structure
* Better reallocation methods
* **Clipboard Manager:**
* Add the hability to do full backups, they will be marked with an asterisk (*) at clipboard items list
* When a partial backup is made and it backups all the layers it will be converted to full backup
* Clipboard can now restore a snapshot directly with `RestoreSnapshot`
* Prevent restore the initial backup upon file load and when clearing the clipboard
* Clip's that change the layer count will perform a full backup and also do a fail-safe backup behind if previous clip is not a full backup
* **Pixel dimming:**
* Allow to load an image file as a pattern (Do not use very large files or it will take much time to dump the data into the textbox)
* Empty lines on patterns will be discarded and not trigger validation error
* **File formats:**
* Add a layer height check on file load to prevent load files with more decimal digits than supported to avoid precision errors and bugs
* Fix a wrong cast causing seconds to miliseconds convertion to be caped to the wrong value
* Internally if a layer colection was replaced, all new layers will be marked as modified to avoid forgeting and ease the code
* **Tools:**
* Pixel dimming: Better render quality, it now respects AA better and produce better walls (#172)
* Elephant foot: It now respects AA better and produce better walls for wall dimming
* Layer Import: Cancelling the operation while importing layers was permanent supresseing layer properties update when changing a base property
* (Change) PrusaSlicer print profiles: Improved raft height and bottom layer count for better print success, less delamination, shorter time and reduce wear of FEP
* (Scripts): Add operation "Validate" pattern to docs and examples (#172)
