Vixen 2.x users, any interest in a new Preview?

I've made a couple improvements and uploaded them to the same url as the original post.
In the update:
On the left side, there's a tab called properties that now shows any shapes or tools you have selected. If the shape has editable properties(right now, only the Megatree does), you can change them there.
As for editable properties, if you change the property of the shape itself, it only affects the shape. If you change the property in the tool, it affects any shape of that type that you draw after the change.
When a tool is selected, I changed the key to allow you to move the shape to alt instead of ctrl....because.....
You can now select multiple shapes and move them as a group.
Also, there's now a build for Vixen 2.5 as well as 2.1.

Another update has been posted.
Fixed:
-Using the arch shape can cause a crash(unless you use it exactly the way I do...ha).
-I noticed arches weren't mapping channels correctly if you're trying to go from right to left.

Added:
-Per a suggestion, if you draw an arch from bottom to top, it will draw upside down. Good for all you people that need smiley faces.
-You can now copy and paste multiple selected shapes at once. (read note below).

There appears to be a little confusion on moving objects, so here's a brief description.
If you are in select mode, by either pressing the arrow in the toolbar or pressing the escape key(the cursor will be an arrow), you can select objects and move them just by clicking on them and dragging the mouse.
If you want to select multiple shapes, press and hold down the control key. Note, if multiple items are selected and you click without the ctrl key, only a single item gets selected. So, to move all selected objects, press the ctrl key first.

Here's where the real confusion is. The alt key. You only need to use the alt key to move a shape if you have a tool selected(the cursor is the crosshairs). If you don't press the alt key when a drawing tool is selected, it will think you want to draw.
This was added just as a (very) minor convenience. If you never want to mess with it, just press the escape key to get to select mode.

A quick note about copying multiple shapes. When you copy a shape or shapes, after you paste it, or them, the pasted shapes are selected. If you want to move all the selected shapes, press the ctrl key before clicking on them to move them. Otherwise it thinks you're trying to select a single shape.
I believe I have this all in the help in the menubar also.

There's a couple more things I want to add but for the most part, I think it's looking pretty good.

Let me know if I blew anything up.

Another day, another update.

Changes:
Mostly just underlying stuff to make my life easier.
Both the Arches and the Posts now have the options for multiple colors.
You can now name the shapes if you'd like. It's not mandatory but could help in some situations.

A fix I don't plan to make...I notice my Candy Canes aren't very realistic. If they were, I'd have at least one blown over and probably one not working(they're incandescents).

Let me know if there are any issues. At this point, I think the wish lists are complete(feel free to remind me if I missed anything).
