**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/slaclab/pydm/compare/v1.19.0...v1.19.1

What's Changed
We have a host of new features and a few bug fixes in this new version. One feature to note is the addition of the PyDMNTTable Widget to display and write to an epics NTTable. The update also adds the ability of pass a sub-field of an epics NTTable with the p4p plugin through to pydm widgets. The other big feature of note is an improvement in load time for any displays that use the same UI files repeatedly. For example a display using a template repeater should see improvement in load time now.

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/slaclab/pydm/compare/v1.18.0...v1.18.1

What's Changed
We have a few new features and a host of bug fixes in this new version. One feature to note is the addition of tooltips which can have channels written into the tooltip, such that when one hovers over the widget the tooltip with display the current value from the channel. This will be available for all widgets that inherit from the PyDMWidget class. We also added timestamp to the PyDMChannel class so it could be included in the tooltips.

Note:
We have made a fix to the style sheets which may cause some screens to require fixes to their style sheet if they use a global style sheet. The fix corrects the order of precedence so that global style sheet will no longer take precedence over the parent style sheet.
