Version 7.0.1

• CHANGE: Removed the automatic backups feature from the legacy toolbox. It will be added back some time in the future. A few users have reported that Excel freezes when they attempt to save a file and the XL Toolbox add-in is loaded. Although the freezes could not be reproduced reliably by the developer, the automatic backup feature is the only thing that might interfere with Excel's save command, so it has been disabled for now.
• FIX: Prevent 'type arguments' error when attempting to perform screenshot-quality export of cells.
• FIX: Prevent Excel from sometimes locking up after closing all workbooks when the 'Quit Excel' command is used.

Version 7.0.0-beta.6

• FIX: Do not crash during startup if invalid configuration file is found.
• FIX: Prevent error message when aborting an update.
• FIX: Prevent some rare crash that occurred when manually triggering an update check after an automatic update check had already been performed.
• FIX: When using the one-click export function, use the actual size of the currently selected graphic, rather than changing the size by applying a previously used unit, which could cause an out-of-memory error if the resulting chart size is huge.
• IMPROVEMENT: If the legacy Toolbox add-in is present during installation, it will now be silently uninstalled. The NG version of the add-in no longer checks for the presence of the legacy version during startup, because deactivation would sometimes crash for no apparent reason.

7.0.0-beta.4

• CHANGE: Worksheet manager now resides in a task pane, rather than its own window.
• FIX: Excel would sometimes crash on shutdown.
• FIX: Worksheet Manager could not move the first worksheet down.

• IMPROVEMENT: Re-implemented "save as" feature (to be used with keyboard shortcuts).
• IMPROVEMENT: Very large worksheets can now be exported to CSV too.
• NEW: Ability to write technical log files.
