Today sees the release of Cheetah 5.8. The biggest change in v5.8 is the improved compatibility with Mac OS X Lion (10.7). It fixes many small bugs and problems and adjusts the color gradients to fit in better with the Lion window color scheme. The Collada export has been improved so that, under Lion, Preview.app can load Cheetah3D-generated Collada files properly. For non-Lion users, v5.8 also offers some welcome improvements like better Auto-keying, faster F-Curve drawing and better Undo support when dealing with poses.
