This version comes with a new MDI paradigm with all views in one workbench. All edit operations have been pulled into top level workbench actions to increase usability. Various usability features have been added: smaller file history, date entry, more drag-and-drop, and better representation of connectivity of persons. Editing now supports multiple media for individuals. Printing offers the option to print to sheet/scale. Screenshots can be generated in the application. Platform support was extended to a native Windows Vista/7 compatible installer as well as a Mac OS X compatible application.

Several UI components have been polished and enhanced with minor features (e.g. table show shortcuts, sorting by more than one column, more keyboard shortcute, more actions from context menus, and multiple selections throughout). Further support for Gedcom features has been added (e.g. ALIASes, adoptions, etc.). Performance in I/O has been greatly improved, and memory leaks fixed. A couple of reports have been reworked and new ones added.
