+* Updated support material so support is smoother and has less small sections which are hard to remove.
 * Fixed start-gcode when using dual-support material
 * Change how the fan is handled on lower layer to improve UM2 printing.
 * Fix that retraction is enabled when selecting UM2 or RepRap.
 * Scale down very large models, or scale up very tiny models automagicly.
-*
