== Changelog

=== {pluginname}.1.0.0-beta.4.1

==== Enhancements

* IK drag handles for the arms and fingers match body node position rather than bone position so drag handles are no
longer offset from maid body.

==== Fixes

* Fix message box and text disappearing after leaving edit mode
* Fix background switcher breaking when `MyRoom` directory is missing from game root
* Fix blur effect not turning off properly
* Fix issue where loading a scene that uses a non-existent pose breaks the pose selector
* Fix MPS naively restoring edit mode's OK button's original functionality
** Other plugins may have hooked onto the OK button and MPS restoring original functionality effectively removes those
hooks

==== New Features

* Add a toggle to only list active maids in the scene

==== Fixes
