            -Optimized the Chuck – Use rotary attachment mode for xTool P2, P2S, M1, and F1 Ultra. This version supports processing in grey-out areas, and center positioning of objects and processing based on the central axis.

            -Optimized the Chuck – Use rotary attachment mode for xTool M1 Ultra and S1. After the laser module's red cross is moved to the highest position of the cylinder and distance measurement is done, XCS will auto-generate a cylinder axis based on the position of the red cross. This helps facilitate the positioning of objects on the canvas.

            -Increased the diameter upper limit in Chuck – Use rotary attachment mode, allowing processing objects with a diameter no greater than 120 mm and a processing area exceeding 120 mm.

            -Increased the upper limit of parameter schemes per processing type from 30 to 100, and introduced scheme management. With scheme management, you can search, rename, import, and export parameter schemes, and associate them with devices (schemes show only for the associated devices). Additionally, parameter schemes can be synchronized to cloud for access across multiple devices using the same account.

            -Optimized the undo and redo functions. You can now undo and redo more actions, such as modifying processing parameters, types, and modes, adding and deleting canvas, and so on. Additionally, you can precisely identify objects affected by these actions.
