|

I wanted to try out the beta version however I cannot install it while the latest release is installed. Is there a way to have both running?
If the beta version is buggy obviously I dont want to use it for work, yet I want to evaluate the new features. |

No sorry, there's no easy way to have both installed at the same time on the same PC. I'd recommend installing the beta on a spare system for the testing if you are worried about its stability.

just how do you think the stability is?
Im assuming that any bugs would be solely related to the new r key feature, which looks great by the way..Cheers

" how do you think the stability is? "
Well, I don't upload the beta if there's any known bugs, but often the testing here is done very quickly (maybe an hour of playing around) and I'm relying on users like yourself to give the new features a proper workout on real jobs.
"Im assuming that any bugs would be solely related to the new r key feature"
Probably in this case yes, but as a general rule, any change may cause unforeseen side effects in unrelated tools.

Just watched the latest vid. (the one with the R key). That looks really cool Phil.
I have downloaded the beta version. Thanks.
Peace,
