Changelog
Fixed a problem which may crash Rhino/Grasshopper on Mac
Now you can assign keyboard shortcuts to many Pancake functions (in Grasshopper Settings -> Interface).
[Highlight manager] Changes can be highlighted after an operation, such as Internalizing Geometry, is done. You can switch the feature by "Settings"/"Highlight Changes".
[Export to 3DM] Provides a reliable method to export geometries to an external 3DM file. This component doesn't rely on Rhino's user interface, therefore can be safely used in conjuction of any other procedure, compared to the Export As component.
[Portability Check] The feature will also check for major styling issues.
"Transfer settings" is moved inside "Setting" sub-menu.
Code is cleaned to reduce the size of Pancake binary.
Icons are changed and shown better in a low-DPI environment.
[Extended menu] Fixed the crash in Rhino 5. However, the feature of picking wire is currently unavailable due to lacking specific API from older versions of Grasshopper
[Extended menu] Due to an unforseen conflict, the operation of Shift+LeftClick is changed to Ctrl+Shift+LeftClick.

[Downgrade to R5] "Offline" downgrader. You can downgrade a file in Rhino 5
​Filepath Series​
[Hang Protection] Emergency saving is more reliable and no longer triggers "save failed" message boxes.
[Export As] Introduced a new compatible mode. It should solve some deadlock problems
[Export As] New guidelines for export configuration (see here)
[Export As] Solved that export isn't fully automated and stuck on the last step
[True-only Button] Better interoperability with some components that may alter the solution status, such as
Export As[Cluster Op] Name refreshing works normally now
[Cluster Op] Merging inputs no longer blanks out downstream data
[ClusterOp] Fixed a bug that prevents Pancake merging inputs if there are 3 or more identical ones.
[Core] Implemented a hot fix that conducts a deeper check of validity of components and documents
Developer mode

Update notification. If a higher version of Pancake is available, you will see a green bar with "New version available..." in menu.
[True-only Button] Fixed an error window pops up after you double clicked the button and move the mouse hovering the label part.
​Connectivity Analysis​
[Downgrade Components] Failed components will be focused after the operation.
[Internalize Geometry] Failed components will be focused after the operation.
[Version Watermark] Menu items are rearranged.
[Portability Check] Now this feature reports core components unavailable in older version of GH
[Portability Check] Fail to respond to the built-in version of GhPython shipped with Rhino 6
​Export As: directly export GH geometries to any format Rhino supports, with layer information (if applicable)
[Internalize Geometry] Added a less destructive mode.
[True-only button] Now the appearance is refreshed correctly. And the component no longer always evaluates
True(see behavior section for more information).[Internalize Geometry] Fixed a bug that prevents the feature from working.
[Portability Check] More plugins which cannot be easily copied are listed.
[Hang Protection] Now the module gives more information on what happens.
​File block monitor: tell you when you need to unblock newly-installed plugins

Wait Until component
Distributed computing (unavailable on Food4Rhino): A framework that introduces multi-computer computation in Grasshopper environment. It can faciliate demanding jobs (such as solar analysis), by delegating tasks to different PCs.
[Hang Protection] Now this feature correctly saves your document when the editor is inside a cluster. Before, the document wouldn't be saved.
[Hang Protection] Now this feature correctly performs an emergency save to temporary folder if the original Grasshopper is never saved. Before, you would see a "sorry" message box.
[Hang Protection] Now this feature is disabled, if Pancake is used on an unsupported platform (such as Mac).
[Downgrade to R5] Now this feature checks if Subtraction and Multiplication are downgradable.
[Internalize Geometry] Now this feature doesn't count already-internalized geometries towards success counter.
[Hang Protection] You no longer need to restart Rhinoceros to let the switch make effect.
[Hang Protection] Sampling threshold is adjusted for better responsiveness.
[Portability Check] Now this feature dives into a cluster and check all components used inside.
[Export to STL] Now this component has a output, indicating if export is successful.
