TL:DR;
* This is release is mostly for the new drawing transform features.
* There are several fixes included as well.
* You can now use dpg.configure_app(wait_for_input=True) to only update/render on user input!
* The focus over the next few releases will be **BUGS**, **PERFORMANCE**, and **HIGH DPI SUPPORT**.

Notes
3D Operations
These new features are not a replacement for an actual 3D renderer but they are useful for _light_ 3D operations. The actual 3D renderer will be coming with __Dear Py3D__. We will also be adding a software renderer to _Dear PyGui_ in the near future. This will also not be a replacement for the hardware accelerated 3D render but will resolve a few of the 3D issues with the drawing API that can't be easily solved without per pixel control. It will also be useful for us for automated testing and as a fallback renderer for machines that don't support the graphics APIs we use. Small sandbox can be found [here](https://github.com/hoffstadt/DearPyGui/discussions/1416). We will be adding several helpers to __DearPyGui_ext__ (i.e. cameras).
mvMat4 type
We added the **mvMat4** (and **mvVec4**) types to work with the **create_*_matrix(...)** commands and **apply_transform(...)**. We will continue to make these more complete matrix and vector types for general purpose use but the initial focus was for the basic 3D operation use cases. We did not want to use python lists (too slow) and we did not want to added a dependency (numpy). We will continue to improve the performance of these new types as well ([SIMD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIMD) support).
