- Windows : it replaces the Blackmagic RAW Player from BMD as default BRAW App Opener and also generates itself the BRAW Thumbnails in Explorer, so the Blackmagic RAW Player is not needed anymore
- macOS : it replaces the Blackmagic RAW Player from BMD as default BRAW App Opener but does not generate QuickLook .BRAW Thumbnails (you will still need to install the Blackmagic RAW Player for this)
* New White Balance Picker Tool :
- You can now automatically click inside your .BRAW File at a given frame to select what "White" (also works with Grey) should be, like Eyedroppers in others apps. The White Balance Tool will set Color Temperature and Tint so that the selected pixel is the closest possible to White / Grey
- Available from the BRAW Studio Panel and the Source Settings in Premiere Pro , the Layer Settings in After Effects and the new Desktop App

- New "Ctrl+Z" or "Ctrl+Shift+Z" shortcuts when the panel is selected : they will do the same action than clicking on "Undo" or "Redo" buttons
- New "Ctrl+C" or "Ctrl+V" shortcuts when the panel is selected : they will do the same action than clicking on "Copy" or "Paste" buttons
- Note about the new shortcuts : when the panel is selected they will not affect other Premiere Pro actions
- If you maintain the "Shift" key of your keyboard while dragging a slider, it slightly drag the slider so you can set more precise values
- Increased a bit sizes of "Thumb" sliders size so they are easier to drag
