Transparent WebGL backgrounds were fixed. A build issue involving the revision
number was fixed. The locatefile function now returns the fully qualified
file name. The htmlviewer uses the absolute path for all platforms;
it is also used for displaying svg files. SVG output for embedded PNG, JPEG,
and external vector EPS and PDF images is supported with the latex TeX
engine and dvisvgm 2.8. The simplex solver was optimized. A pad function that
pads a picture to a precise size in both directions was introduced.
The xasy front end was ported to high-resolutions screens and handles Ctrl-C
interrupts correctly. Objects can be positioned finely with the arrow keys
while holding down the mouse button. The origin/center order and anchor names
were fixed. A front/back detection bug in the solids module was fixed.
The grffile package fixes issues with included file names.
This release requires Version 1.34 of asymptote.sty (auto-generated).

Announcement text:

Minor update to iftex package to improve compatibility with KOMA-Script scrbase package
which defines ifpdftex with a different syntax.
iftex will now not over-ride the definition.
Users can still use the alternative name ifPDFTeX to access the iftex definition.
Alternatively(and preferable for compatibility with other document classes)
use the scrbase internalonly option so that package does not define a conflicting ifpdftex.
