Fixed:
Arrangement View:
- Fixed an issue where Live hangs when zooming in Arrangement View in some cases
- Previously, reordering automation lanes via dragging and dropping or using the "CMD" and Arrow Up/Down (Mac) / "CTRL" and Arrow Up/Down (Win) keys would not mark the document as modified
- Fixed the width of the divider line between Arrangement lanes and track/lane headers
- Previously, after selecting content by clicking on the Arrangement loop brace or pressing "CMD"+"A" (Mac) / "CTRL"+"A" (Win), content of tracks nested in a folded Group Track would not be selected when unfolding the containing Group Track

- Fixed a crash that could occur when restoring the Arrangement View's zoom state using the "Z" keyboard shortcut after deleting a take lane
- Fixed a crash that could occur when clicking in a track's main lane after track content had been selected during recording, under certain circumstances
- Previously, mixer controls in linked tracks would still be linked when selecting a take lane, after multiple track headers had previously been selected
- Arrangement clip headers no longer have an uneven appearance
- Previously, an Arrangement clip header would not be displayed as having a standby selection when the focus was moved away
- Previously, it was not possible to unlink all tracks when some tracks were nested inside a Group Track

- Previously, resizing the Device View, as a result of switching to the Arrangement View, while no clip was selected would result in automation lanes having the wrong height when switching back to the Session View
- Previously, using Tempo Follower and Tap Tempo at the same time could create a conflict with Live's tempo. To prevent this, Tempo Follower is now disabled as long as Tap Tempo is active
- Previously, the waveform of an audio clip in the Detail View would be displayed in a dimmed color, although that clip was not audible while Audition Mode was enabled
- Using pinch gestures to zoom once again works in expression lanes
- Previously, the vertical zoom level and scroll position in the MIDI Note Editor were sometimes wrong when switching from the Expression tab to the Notes tab
- Added the following changes for Windows:
- On Windows 10, Live requires version 1803 or higher to be used on HiDPI screens

Also, it is no longer possible to inadvertently trigger Temporary Demo Mode when attempting to perform another action that breaches any current limitations, in cases where a "fake" device was created
- The LOM ID of a routable MIDI input/output is now retained after moving and saving the containing Max for Live device

MIDI Editing:
- Upon setting Scale Name and Root Note values for a MIDI clip, those values remain visible (but grayed out), even when Scale Mode is disabled
- When enabled, the Scale (aka Fold to Scale) button becomes disabled (instead of grayed out) whenever folding to scale is not possible
- Previously, when using the Arrow Up/Down keys in the Velocity or Chance Editor while no notes were selected, a false value was temporarily shown in the respective editor's lane header
- When multiple MIDI clips are selected and the Envelopes and Expression tabs are not displayed, the Notes tab is now left-aligned

MPE Editing:
- Previously, per-note pitch bend editing was unavailable when a MIDI Effect Rack or Instrument Rack was used, under certain circumstances
- Previously, when the Expression tab was visible, making a rectangular selection of a single note in the MIDI Note Editor would incorrectly set the focus to pitch bend expression editing
- Fixed a bug that caused a note's per-note pitch bend range to get reset to +/- 48 semitones when copying and pasting a track
- Fixed a bug that could cause notes to be affected by expression parameters (including pitch bend) from previous notes
- Previously, when the Expression tab was open and the MIDI Note Editor was folded, zooming to selected notes would sometimes scroll out of view

Push:
- Changes to a scale or root note on Push while recording a MIDI clip are now applied to that newly-recorded clip

Session View:
- When using a device parameter's "Show Automation" or "Show Modulation" context menu command while a Session clip is playing, Live now switches to the Envelopes tab in the Clip View when no clip is selected
- Shift-clicking on an empty track slot in the Session View no longer changes the scene and track highlighting
- Previously, the Follow Action Time marker was sometimes displayed at the wrong position in unwarped clips
- Improved the text contrast in the Session View's Track Status display for unlooped clips
- Previously, when triggering a scene with assigned Follow Actions after stopping Live's transport, that scene's tempo was not respected
- The "Stop" Follow Action now works as expected for scenes
- Setting the scene tempo or time signature from the Python API (Max and Push) will enable the respective scene control and display the correct value being set
