-Remove the option --intpalette to format the palette in the xml as ints. If they are not hex formatted, then they should always be float. This option was pointless.

-Use inline member data initializers.
-Make a #define for static for use in Utils.h to make things a little cleaner.

-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.

-OpenCL build and assignment errors for Z value in epispiral variation.
-Unitialized local variables in hexaplay3D, crob, pRose3D.
--Code changes
