Don’t forget that this is a beta version and there might be some bugs. Please report them on GitHub. If you have an automatic script to update Butterfly, please adjust it to the new naming of the release assets. Read more about it here.

Reenable changing data directory on android

Butterfly 1.x allowed changing the data directory on android. This feature was removed in Butterfly 2.0.0 since Butterfly uses a different file system library. This feature is now reenabled on android.

Fix unknown import type shows euler number

This only affects the android version. I changed the import system in the last release to support more file types. Here I forgot to change the error message to show Unknown import type instead of the variable e which corresponds to the euler number.s

Fix unknown import type on images

This also only affects the android version. The new import system on android didn’t recognized images as an import type (technically I checked for the exact image/* mime type instead of using regex). Now it should work again.

Fix changing background removes all elements from the canvas

This affects all platforms. When changing the background, the app removed all elements from the canvas. This is now fixed.
