Change Log

- 2024/12/02: v1.2.2

- Added Simplify Interval option to the preferences.

- It defines the minimal interval between switching Simplify mode consecutively, to prevent reacting to mode changes too frequently.

- Default is 0.1 sec.

- Improvement: Simplify state is now be kept while the user perfroming UNDO/REDO.

- The system reverts all changes on object,modifier,etc when the user performs UNDO. This was causing the Simplify state to be out-of-sync while Simplify flag is still enabled. With this improvement, this problem is solved.
