NEW FEATURES/CHANGES:

- Authorware now supports video overlay boards that are driven with
QuickTime(tm) VDIG extensions.  The VDIG interface allows one driver to work
with many different overlay boards, including the on-board video cards in
the Apple AV machines.  The new  QuickTime(tm) Overlay driver, which you can
select
from the video setup dialog box, contains the Authorware code that communicates
with the VDIG interface. We have tested this driver with several of the overlay
boards on the market that use this interface, including:
- Apple Quadra AV on-board
- VideoLogic DVA-4000
- TrueVision NuVista+


As more video overlay boards comply with the VDIG interface, you will be
able to use a new board without obtaining a new driver from Macromedia.

- Clicking and dragging displays that are positioned "in area" or "on path"
has
been improved. Previously, when APM was busy in a decision loop or calculating
perpetuals, the mouse click was lost and the user had to re-click the mouse
to manipulate a display. This is no longer necessary.

- During the time since APM 2.0 was released, Apple introduced a new series
of Macintoshes called the Quadra AV machines.  Authorware 2.2 will now function
properly on these machines.

- Authorware now supports the CLV (constant linear velocity) formatted disks
in the Pioneer players, specifically Pioneer LDV-2200/4200/8000 CLV.

There is no Authorware Professional for Windows 2.2 update available at this
time.   Since there have been no changes to the APM file format, you can
still open your APM files in APW 2.0.1.
