Cycling '74 updates Max to v5.0.3

Cycling '74 has updated Max to v5.0.3.

Bug fixes and new features:

• itable: compatible with preset object.
• qmetro, qlim: fixed long-term timing accuracy.
• option/alt click on first inlet of text objects and then choosing one of the "Box Attributes" will now make a message prefixed by sendbox so that it will work to set the box attribute.
• adsr~ now works properly with attr args.
• Fix for double output under certain circumstances when using pattrs in bound mode.
• debug window stack is cleared after a stack overflow.
• fixed crash when debugger was open and debugging enabled when a stack overflow occurred.
• tempo: understands float again.
• flonum: no longer display erroneous value while dragging big numbers with the mouse.

• movie: now causes imovie to be included in collectives.
• pattrstorage: repaired notifications to and from other pattrstorage objects.
• Jitter tutorial reference can now open the patcher.
• pattrstorage: @dirty now defaults to off, as documented.
• umenu: a minus ('\-') is now correctly output as a minus ('-') from the object's middle inlet.
• jit.textfile: added 'wclose' method.
• jit.textfile: 'read' filename arguments works again.
• Fixed scripting crash when creating multiple pattr objects with 'script new'.
• jit.uldl: Windows fixes for file downloading.
• jit.qt.movie: Fixed crash in 'export fulldialog'.
• jit.qt.movie: 'export fulldialog' no longer stops movie playback.
• hint: fixed delay time attribute.
• groove~: loopinterp works properly with 4 channels buffer.
• mxj list.Mth: 0 index works as expected.
• coll: correctly assigns filename to editor so you can save it with cmd-S.
• coll: searches for files with text or max binary extensions from a basename, as Max 4 did (e.g., you can say coll foo and it will find foo.txt).
• qlist: correctly sets filename for editor so you can cmd-S the file, also does a search on name + extension for max binary and text files (read foo will find foo.txt), and saves the last filename with the object.
• removed duplicate snapshot~ entry in MSP Analysis object list.
• prevented crash if zoomed-out grid spacing was less than or equal to zero.
• qlist: since it saves its contents, the previous change of saving the filename with the object, which read in the file AFTER the qlist had been populated with the saved contents, has been eliminated.
• prevented overdrive from being enabled via message to max or DSP status window if debugging is enabled.
• dragging the "color" (Border Color) attribute from an inspector (or choosing it from the quickref menu) now uses the name bordercolor instead of color to avoid conflict with the legacy color message.
• sendbox appears in front of more newobj attributes when dragging from an inspector (and is consistent in this respect with choosing a box attribute name from the quickref menu).
• jstrigger: can be included in a standalone without a js object.
• matrixctrl: pattr now stores empty matrices properly.
• umenu: label background color is displayed properly, as in Max 4.
• delta character (unicode 394) is not used in sizing assistance unless it exists in the font.
• buffer~: size message no longer reallocates a buffer that is the same size, preventing obscure crashes that are probably Mac-specific.

• function: border color can now be changed.
• number/flonum: new tricolor and htricolor which allow you to change the color of the triangle.
• click on patch cord that is over a box will now deselect all boxes.

• zl: new mode compare.

• png files can now be found more reliably when loading a patch.
• pattrstorage: window updates are now properly deferred.
• assistance fade in reduced to 200ms from 400ms.
• toolbar captions now use the system font, so they can be translated into other languages.

• pattrmarker: @invisble, when enabled, prevents this patcher's name from appearing in the list reported by 'getmarkerlist'. To retrieve the complete list (including 'invisible' pattrmarkers), users can send 'getmarkerlist 1' to the pattrmarker object.
• pattrforward: 'send' with no argument detaches pattrforward from its target.
• poly~: target attribute value preserved when updating subpatcher.

• matrixctrl: imagemask attribute is disabled for default cell image to prevent it from being corrupted for all other objects. Also turning off imagemask attribute now clears the alpha version of the mask properly -- useful when you're just messing around and your image doesn't have a mask (which it doesn't most of the time).
