   new: The "One Level Down Folder" section in the Environment window and the Quick Settings panel.
  You can specify a Custom folder to store files for the "One Level Down" feature. The default value is OFF.
  
  
   new: You can override the screen resolution in the Options -> Miscellaneous window. This is useful for systems without monitors, or when monitors are in Sleep, Standby, or Power Saving modes - anything that could interfere with current screen resolution detection.
  
  
   new: Command Line Interface flag: /separate. This acts as the CLI equivalent to the "Save each frame capture as a separate output file" setting.

   changed: The Audio/Video information module has been updated.

  ----- Changes in Pictures Thumbnails Viewer 15.0.0.0 -----
   new: Support of the latest VTM 28.0.0.0+ screenlists.
   changed: The Viewer remembers the zoom level and image position when navigating back through history.
   special note: If you use Pictures Thumbnails Maker (PTM), you may want to install its latest version as well, because PTM uses its own instance of the Viewer. Windows launches the Viewer from the location where the latest PTM or VTM launch occurred.
