Here is the full list of release notes:
* The car model used in the Driving Instructor can now be edited. The car model is what is used to display the image of the car as it moves around the track. Note this is purely a visual image. It has no impact on the advice given by the Driving Instructor. There are several models that come with the Analyzer, and you can chose from them in the 'Car Model' drop down on the left side of the Driving Instructor under the 'Driving Advice' section.

* To edit or create a new car model select the Analysis->Edit Car Models menu option. This will display the currently available car models. Double click on a name to edit the model. Or right click and then choose an option from the popup menu. To create a new car model you will need a top down image of the car, along with various dimensions, such as the length and width, front and rear track, axle locations, and tire/wheel sizes.

* The car models are stored in individual folders within the documents/z1analyzer/carmodels folder. You can share a car model with others by giving them a copy of the appropriate folder, which they would then place in the documents/z1analyzer/carmodels folder on their computer.

* Various improvements to the Driving Instructor to improve performance.

* Added support for Codemasters F1 22.

* There is now an 'Always On Top' option for the Analyzer. This is located in the Display settings tab. Selecting this option will keep the Analyzer window on top of all other windows when running, with the exception of full screen windows.

* There are now options in the Control settings tab to specify what the mouse wheel does when the cursor is over a trace. You can specify the basic mouse wheel option and the control-mouse wheel option. By default the mouse wheel will zoom the trace in/out, and the control-mouse wheel will pan a zoomed trace left or right.

* You can now assign right mouse button drag, control right mouse button drag, shift right mouse button drag, and control-shift right mouse button drag to perform the the following options: zoom a trace, scrub a trace, shift the main lap, and move sectors. By default the right button options are not assigned to these functions. Use the Control settings tab to make the desired assignments.

* Driving Instructor: the turn advice will now remain displayed until you either click the Play icon to continue round the lap, click the Stop icon to halt playback, or select another turn. This allows you to move the map around and still see the turn's advice.

* Altitude, ABS Active and Traction Control Active have been added as a data channels. These can be shown in a standard trace or data tile, or used in a custom trace, math channel, scatter plot, or histogram.

* There is now an info icon that appears in the title bars of any custom traces. Clicking this icon toggles a legend for the custom trace. This legend will show what each line in the trace represents, along with the math formulas if appropriate.

* Track Walk: The Play/Stop button has been replaced by 5 buttons - play, pause, stop, step forward, step backward. This allows for greater control over the playback of a corner.

* Track Walk: A graphical representation of the suggested steering angle is now displayed inside the gear circle when running through a corner. The wheel is always displayed with straight ahead being up, regardless of the orientation of the car. You can turn this feature off under the Display settings tab.

* Track Walk: Improved the advice given on how to enter and exit the turn.

* Track Walk: When a corner is selected the information box now includes right and left arrow buttons in the header. These let you easily move to the next or previous turn.

* When opening laps, any of your laps that are considered to be partial laps will be marked as such in the list of available laps. A partial lap is one that doesn't finish at least 95% of the lap. You can choose to hide these laps by right clicking on the laps and unselecting the 'Show Partial Laps' option in the drop down menu.

* Maximum readable IBT file size has been increased from 1Gb to 4GB.
