Exporting Apps and Plugins
- Fixed issue where some compositions exported as screensavers and FFGL plugins would show stretched pixels along the edges of the viewport
- Fixed issue where compositions exported as screensavers couldn’t find their bundled resources when run on macOS 10.15

Vuo Compiler and Runtime
- Added workaround for issue where VDMX didn’t render Vuo compositions that changed the output image size (pending integration into a future VDMX release)
- Added workaround for issue where VDMX didn’t load Vuo compositions containing subcompositions (pending integration into a future VDMX release)
