Hi Tina,
Someone has a link to the latest beta version. I'll let them give it to you.
The beta versions offer some nice improvements over Mark's version. From what I can remember, they allow rotations, they're faster and the triangle interface is easier to work with, plus many other good other things.
Unfortunately they do not always work with UF and that is why I am frustrated. From what I can see, the problem is on both sides. The UF formulas no longer match what the beta versions create and the beta versions will occasionally kick out error messages when exporting UPRs. When they are successful and exporting a UPR it may not appear correctly in UF, which is probably due to the mismatched UF formula.
On the most recent beta version, there was a lot of excitement over unlimited transforms. If I understand the UF formula correctly, it can't deal with unlimited transforms. I bring this up to point out that this alone makes it obvious that the good folks creating the beta versions are not concerned about UF compatibility. I hope that in future versions they become concerned about it. That is why I am saying what I am in this thread.
The beta versions are great and I appreciate all of the effort that has gone into them. I feel guilty about making requests and complaining, but I really do believe that there is value in Apophysis being fully compatible with UF. It's good for both programs
I know that I didn't answer your technical questions. Hopefully someone else can do that.
Keith
