Bug Fixes:
- Block: Blocks containing objects on layers that were turned off could incorrectly still be selected. This is fixed. Now, if you can't see the block (the layer the entities are on is off), when window selecting, SelAll, or SelBlockInstance does not select the block even though insert layer is still on, the instance is not selected.
- EditScript: Ctrl+Y now works as Redo.
- Merge2Faces crash fixed.
- Zoom, Target: The OnSrf object snap did not work with this command.
