New - Added a new Favorites page to which you can add icons and sort into groups in any order
New - When dragging, you can hover over the page buttons to switch pages
New - Added option for animated window resizing which help maintain visual orientation during a drag to Favorites via the button bar
New - You can now sort icons by color. An intelligent color sort determines the most visually significant color to sort by. There are options for adjusting some parameters that control the sort.
New - You can now filter app names by typing multiple letters. The first typed letter still incorporates our smart filter, but two or more letters reverts to a substring search.
New - You can now use the scroll wheel or two-finger scrolling to change the filter letter
New - When your filter leaves a single app icon available, you can now press return or enter to launch that app
New - Added a delay setting to the cursor hot spots
Fixed - Sped up folder scanning by preventing recursion into any package that is not an application package
Fixed - Corrected the "sort by subfolder" order when displaying icons as a single group
Fixed - After an app performed a Sparkle update procedure, the app might not launch when clicked on in Bevy. This behavior has been corrected.
Changed - App icons now display as dots while loading. The question mark is shown only when an app was not found (which could occur at startup when Bevy reads from a cached list of apps, or on the new favorites page which remembers your apps instead of automatically deleting them as occurs in the included page)
Changed - Icon images are now reduced to the "max icon size" specified in the preferences in order to conserve memory and speed up drawing. They used to be reduced to 128 px, but this size was rarely reachable except on big displays with only a few icons.
Changed - Added a delay timer after Spotlight updates so that app installs/updates don't cause multiple rescans
Changed - Window handling code when switching to/from Bevy make window activations look a little nicer
Changed - Icon opacity during clicks and drags behaves like the Dock
Changed - The tab key now switches between Included, Favorites and Running pages, and skips over Total and Excluded pages

Limitations Bevy will run in trial mode until it is activated. This means that it is fully functioning, but the longer you use Bevy, the more suggestive it becomes reminding you to purchase.
