-Remove the Type field from the variations tree and instead just put the type indicator icon next to the variation name.
 -Double clicking to toggle variation parameter spinners now resets the value to the default if there is one, else it uses zero. If it is already using the default, it is toggled to 0.
 -Add a new button to toggle xaos on and off.
 -When duplicating a flame, insert it immediately after the one being duplicated instead of at the end of the file.
 -When switching between flames in a file, keep the same xform index selected rather than resetting it to the first xform each time.
 -Create a threaded writer for the final render and EmberAnimate so the rendering process does not get delayed by file saving which may take a long time.
 -Remove warning which said "Frames per rot cannot be greater than one while Rotations is zero" when generating a sequence.
 -Add the Circle_Rand variation from Chaotica.
 -Add tool tips to clarify the following items:
 --Auto Unique Filenames checkbox in the options dialog.
 --Xaos table headers.

--Bug fixes
 -Generating sequences using the following variations would be done incorrectly: circletrans1, collideoscope, crob, curlsp, glynnsim1, glynnsim2, hypercrop, julian, julian, mobiusn, nblur, waves2, wavesn.
 -Adding/removing nodes from the color curve had accidentally been disabled.
 -The applied xaos weight table was not showing normalized weight values.
 -Changing the size of a flame was not observing the Apply To All checkbox.
 -Do not clamp the Rotate field to +/-180, because this causes the rotation to switch from CW to CCW during sequence generation. Instead, leave it exactly as the user entered it so the rotations proceed in the same direction.

-Add new preset dimensions to the right click menu of the width and height fields in the editor.
-Change QSS stylesheets to properly handle tabs.

 -Migrate to Qt6. There is probably more work to be done here.
-Migrate to VS2022.
-Migrate to Wix 4 installer.
-Change installer to install to program files for all users.
-Fix many VS2022 code analysis warnings.
-No longer use byte typedef, because std::byte is now a type. Revert all back to unsigned char.
-Upgrade OpenCL headers to version 3.0 and keep locally now rather than trying to look for system files.
-No longer link to Nvidia or AMD specific OpenCL libraries. Use the generic installer located at OCL_ROOT too.
-Add the ability to change OpenCL grid dimensions. This was attempted for investigating possible performance improvments, but made no difference.

This has not been verified on Linux or Mac yet.

 -Allow users to set the Exp value when using the Exp temporal filter type.
 -Set the default temporal filter type to be Box, which does not alter the palette values at all during animation. This is done to avoid confusion when using Gaussian or Exp which can produce darkened images.

--Bug fixes
 -Sending a sequence to the final render dialog when the keyframes had non zero rotate and center Y values would produce off center animations when rendered.
 -Temporal filters were being unnecessarily recreated many times when rendering or generating sequences.
 -Exp filter was always treated like a Box filter.

--Code changes
 -Add a new member function SaveCurrentAsXml(QString filename = "") to the controllers which is only used for testing.
 -Modernize some C++ code.

90ec5b8246 --User changes:
-Show common folder locations such as documents, downloads, pictures in the sidebar in all file dialogs.
 -Warning message about exceeding memory in final render dialog now suggests strips as the solution to the problem.
 -Strips now has a tooltip explaining what it does.
 -Allow more digits in the spinners on the color section the flame tab.
 -Add manually adjustable size spinners in the final render dialog. Percentage scale and absolute size are fully synced.
 -Default prefix in final render is now the filename when doing animations (coming from sequence section of the library tab).
 -Changed the elliptic variation back to using a less precise version for float, and a more precise version for double. The last release had it always using double.
 -New applied xaos table that shows a read-only view of actual weights by taking the base xform weights and multiplying them by the xaos values.
 -New table in the xaos tab that gives a graphical representation of the probability that each xform is chosen, with and without xaos.
 -Add button to transpose the xaos rows and columns.
 -Add support for importing .chaos files from Chaotica.
 --Pasting back to Chaotica will work for most, but not all, variations due to incompatible parameter names in some.
 -Curves are now splines instead of Bezier. This adds compatibility with Chaotica, but breaks it for Apophysis. Xmls are still pastable, but the color curves will look different.
 --The curve editor on the palette tab can now add points by clicking on the lines and remove points by clicking on the points themselves, just like Chaotica.
 --Splines are saved in four new xml fields: overall_curve, red_curve, green_curve and blue_curve.
 -Allow for specifying the percentage of a sub batch each thread should iterate through per kernel call when running with OpenCL. This gives a roughly 1% performance increase due to having to make less kernel calls while iterating.
 --This field is present for interactive editing (where it's not very useful) and in the final render dialog.
 --On the command line, this is specified as --sbpctth for EmberRender and EmberAnimate.
 -Allow double clicking to toggle the supersample field in the flame tab between 1 and 2 for easily checking the effect of the field.
 -When showing affine values as polar coordinates, show angles normalized to 360 to match Chaotica.
 -Fuse Count spinner now toggles between 15 and 100 when double clicking for easily checking the effect of the field.
 -Added field for limiting the range in the x and y direction that the initial points are chosen from.
 -Added a field called K2 which is an alternative way to set brightness, ignored when zero.
 --This has no effect for many variations, but hs a noticeable effect for some.

 --hex_truchet, hex_rand should always use double. They are extremely sensitive.

--Bug fixes:
 -Bounds sign was flipped for x coordinate of world space when center was not zero.
 -Right clicking and dragging spinner showed menu on mouse up, even if it was very far away.
 -Text boxes for size in final render dialog were hard to type in. Same bug as xform weight used to be so fix the same way.
 -Fix spelling to be plural in toggle color speed box.
 -Stop using the blank user palette to generate flames. Either put colored palettes in it, or exclude it from randoms.
 -Clicking the random palette button for a palette file with only one palette in it would freeze the program.
 -Clicking none scale in final render did not re-render the preview.
 -Use less precision on random xaos. No need for 12 decimal places.
 -The term sub batch is overloaded in the options dialog. Change the naming and tooltip of those settings for cpu and opencl.
 --Also made clear in the tooltip for the default opencl quality setting that the value is per device.
 -The arrows spinner in palette editor appears like a read-only label. Made it look like a spinner.
 -Fix border colors for various spin boxes and table headers in the style sheet. Requires reload.
 -Fix a bug in the bwraps variation which would produce different results than Chaotica and Apophysis.
 -Synth was allowed to be selected for random flame generation when using an Nvidia card but it shouldn't have been because Nvidia has a hard time compiling synth.
 -A casting bug in the OpenCL kernels for log scaling and density filtering was preventing successful compilations on Intel iGPUs. Fixed even though we don't support anything other than AMD and Nvidia.
 -Palette rotation (click and drag) position was not being reset when loading a new flame.
 -When the xform circles were hidden, opening and closing the options dialog would improperly reshow them.
 -Double click toggle was broken on integer spin boxes.
 -Fixed tab order of some controls.
 -Creating a palette from a jpg in the palette editor only produced a single color.
 --Needed to package imageformats/qjpeg.dll with the Windows installer.
 -The basic memory benchmark test flame was not really testing memory. Make it more spread out.
 -Remove the temporal samples field from the flame tab, it was never used because it's only an animation parameter which is specified in the final render dialog or on the command line with EmberAnimate.

--Code changes:
 -Add IsEmpty() to Palette to determine if a palette is all black.
 -Attempt to avoid selecting a blank palette in PaletteList::GetRandomPalette().
 -Add function ScanForChaosNodes() and some associated helper functions in XmlToEmber.
 -Make variation param name correction be case insensitive in XmlToEmber.
 -Report error when assigning a variation param value in XmlToEmber.
 -Add SubBatchPercentPerThread() method to RendererCL.
 -Override enterEvent() and leaveEvent() in DoubleSpinBox and SpinBox to prevent the context menu from showing up on right mouse up after already leaving the spinner.
 -Filtering the mouse wheel event in TableWidget no longer appears to be needed. It was probably an old Qt bug that has been fixed.
 -Gui/ember syncing code in the final render dialog needed to be reworked to accommodate absolute sizes.

 -Use exact comparisons in IsID() and IsZero() in Affine2D.
 -When testing for bad point values while iterating, only test for NaN now.
 -For rendering with OpenCL on the command line and in the final render dialog, use an optimized kernel that does a direct assignment for any affines which are ID.

-Add two new variations, hyperbolic and hypershift2.
 -Allow for animating final xforms.
 -More detailed diagnostics when any action in the OpenCL renderer fails.
 -Allow for creating an OpenCL renderer which does not share a texture with the main window, and instead manually copies its final output image from GPU to CPU then back to GPU.

--Bug fixes
 -Text was not properly being copied out of the Info | Bounds text box.

--Code changes
 -Remove Renderer::AccumulatorToFinalImage(v4F* pixels, size_t finalOffset), it's no longer needed or makes sense.
 -Controllers no longer keep track of shared status, it's kept inside the renderers.

-Support 4k monitors, and in general, properly scale any monitor that is not HD.
 -Allow for a spatial filter of radius zero, which means do not use a spatial filter.
 -Add new variations: concentric, cpow3, helicoid, helix, rand_cubes, sphereblur.
 -Use a new method for computing elliptic which is more precise. Developed by Discord user Claude.
 -Remove the 8 variation per xform limitation on the GPU.
 -Allow for loading the last flame file on startup, rather than randoms.
 -Use two different default quality values in the interactive renderer, one each for CPU and GPU.
 -Creating linked xforms was using non-standard behavior. Make it match Apo and also support creating multiple linked xforms at once.

--Bug fixes
 -No variations in an xform used to have the same behavior as a single linear variation with weight 1. While sensible, this breaks backward compatibility. No variations now sets the output point to zeroes.
 -Prevent crashing the program when adjusting a value on the main window while a final render is in progress.
 -The xaos table was inverted.

--Code changes
 -Convert projects to Visual Studio 2017.
 -Change bad vals from +- 1e10 to +-1e20.
 -Reintroduce the symmetry tag in xforms for legacy support in programs that do not use color_speed.
 -Compiler will not let us use default values in templated member functions anymore.

--Allow for clearing an individual color curve.
--Allow for saving multiple image types in EmberRender and EmberAnimate. All writes are threaded.
--Remove --bpc command line argument. Add format png16 as a replacement.
--Remove --enable_jpg_comments and --enable_png_comments command line arguments, and replace them with --enable_comments which applies to jpg, png and exr.

 -Show checkbox for current flame. Remember this is not necessarily what's selected.
 -User can now drag a square to select xforms, which keeps in sync with checkboxes.
 -Remove --nframes from command line. Replace with new params: --loopframes, --interpframes, --interploops.
 -Add two new options to EmberGenome: --cwloops --cwinterploops to specify whether rotation should go clockwise instead of the default counter clockwise.
 -Add these to Fractorium as checkboxes.
 -Apply All now also works for toggling animate flag on xforms.
 -Options dialog now allows user to set whether double click toggles spinners, or right click does.

--Bug fixes
 -Selecting final and non-final xforms, and then dragging the non-final did not drag the final with it.

--Bug fixes
 -Prevent filenames in command line programs from using scientific notation when rendering a large number of frames.
 -Fix tab orders to match newer GUI items which were overlooked in previous releases.

 -Add a prefix parameter to EmberFile::DefaultFilename() to allow for creating a default filename for sequences.
 -When showing the final render dialog, allow specifying where it came from: the toolbar or the render sequence button.
 -Refactor all preview rendering code out into its own class hierarchy with overrides for the main window and the final render dialog.
 -Remove all preview render cancelling functions, they are now built into the new class hierarchy and a new render will not start until the previous one is stopped.
 -Add two new function ConstrainLow() and ConstrainHigh() which wrap constraining two min/max spinboxes to each others' values.
 -Add a bool to FractoriumEmberControllerBase::CopyEmberFile() to specify whether to copy the main file or the sequence file. This is somewhat of a hack and was done in a rush.

 -Use raw array of floats in OpenCL for perlin noise, rather than float3/double3.
 -Add some default cases to dc_perlin.
 -Redo singleton pattern yet again. Deriving from a templated Singleton<T> class was creating a separate instance per module. Now only one instance of each type will ever be created and it will be wrapped in a shared_ptr which guarantees its deletion as main() exits.

 -Allow for dragging around flames in the library tab. This is useful for setting up the order of an animation.
 -Make the opening of large files in Fractorium much more efficient when not-appending.
 -Make the opening of large files in all EmberRender and EmberAnimate more efficient.
 -Better error reporting when opening files.

--Bug fixes
 -Get rid of leftover artifacts that would appear on preview thumbnails when either switching SP/DP or re-rendering previews.
 -Filename extension was not being appended on Linux when saving as Xml, thus making it impossible to drag that file back in becase drop is filtered on extension.

 -Move GCC compiler spec to C++14. Building with 5.3 now on linux.
 -Use inline member data initializers.
 -Make a #define for static for use in Utils.h to make things a little cleaner.
 -Make various functions able to take arbitrary collections as their parameters rather than just vectors.
 -Make library collection a list rather than vector. This alleviates the need to re-sync pointers whenever the collection changes.
 -Subclass QTreeWidget for the library tree. Two new files added for this.
 -Remove all usage of #ifdef ROW_ONLY_DE in DEOpenCLKernelCreator, it was never used.
 -Add move constructor and assignment operator to EmberFile.

 -Add some keyboard shortcuts for toolbar and menu items.
 -Make info tab tree always expanded.

--Bug fixes
 -Make precalcs for all hypertile variations safer by using Zeps() for denominators.
 -Changing the current xform with more than one selected would set all xform's color index value that of the current one.
 -Use hard found palette path information for randoms as well.
 -OpenCL build and assignment errors for Z value in epispiral variation.
 -Unitialized local variables in hexaplay3D, crob, pRose3D.

--Code changes

-Remove Hue as a saved parameter, as well as animation parameters associated with it. It's now a GUI-only field that is never saved.
 -Make histogram, density filter buffer, and all associated fields always float, even when using double. In that case, only the iteration calculations are now double. Suggested by Thomas Ludwig.
 -Print all three kernels in EmberRender when the --dump_kernel option is specified.
 -Apply variations filter to randoms.

 -De-templatized DEOpenCLKernelCreator and FinalAccumOpenCLKernelCreator. They now just take a bool as a parameter to specify double precision.
 -To accommodate the buffers being float, introduce a new #define types in EmberCL called real4_bucket, and real4reals_bucket.
 -Density and spatial filtering structs now use this type.
 -ConvertDensityFilter() and ConvertSpatialFilter() no longer return a value, they just assign to the member.
