installed the 2.83 version and i have both in there. should i get rid of 2.79 or leave both in? just wondering if the two would fight against eachother.

There is no conflict, they both take their own place in the addons folder,only one can ever run at once. The only conflict us the screen button will only look for a folder with the name "newfangled'. If you have unzipped the files into newfangled283 then it can only be found by selection off the menu.

There really is no reason t keep an old one around, nothing has been removed from a version,just bug fixes.

thanks Ron
