+## 4.46.0 PySimpleGUI 10-Aug-2021
+
+McRelease - Lots of Mac changes including new Mac patch control panel in global settings
+expand_x, expand_y in the constructors
+docstrings reformatted
+Text Elements really autosize now
+
+Multiline.print & cprint 
+	* Added autoscroll parameter - defaults to True (backward compatible)
+	* will now take a single color and use as text color
+Text element - autosize with size of None, None creates an expanding Label widget with size and width of None and wraplen=0 (truely autosizing it appears!),
+ButtonMenu 
+	* use font for button as menu font if none is supplied
+	* fixed mutible problem - makes a copy of menu definition when making ButtonMenu
+	* made menu definition optional so can change only some other settings
+Mac
+	* New window added to control the patches and feature disables. Access by calling main_mac_feature_control or through the global settings window from main()
+	* Disables grab anywhere if a titlebar is present
+	* Right click menu bound to Button2 which is the right button on a Mac (Button3 for all other systems)
+	* FINALLY found the no-titlebar problem - weird tkinter bug. Can't set alpha channel while making window if no titlebar on Mac (credit to Tanay for this find!!)
+	* Allowed Modal windows again
+	* Will not try to apply no titlebar patch if tkinter version >= 8.6.10 regardless of user settings
+	* Disable the alpha chan to zero if the no titlebar patch is set on the Mac. Will see the window move to center of screen for these windows.
+	* Added no-titlebar batch to toolore neetips
+Fixed problem with titles on some Linux systems - set class_ for Toplevel windows
+Menu defintion bug fix - when menu shortcut char in first pos and item is disabled !&Item
+Sizegrip - fixed expansion problem
+Added kill application button to error popup
+one_line_progress_meter
+	* keep_on_top parameter added
+	* no_button parameter added so that no cancel button is shown
+Deprication warning added to FindElement as first step of moving out of non-PEP8 world,
+Added TabGroup.add_tab to add new tab to TabGroup at runtime
+execute_py_file
+	* set cwd='.' if dir not found
+	* check for file exists
+Right click menu	
+	* added to Radio Checkbox Tabgroup Spin Slider
+	* Elements that don't have a right_click_menu parm now pick up the default from the Window
+	* Added a right click menu callback to cover portions of the window that don't have an element on them
+	* Changed Button binding for Mac to Button2 (the right button rather than middle on the other systems)
+	* Made right click menus based on button release (MUCH better)
+docstrings
+	* Reformatted all docstrings to line up the desriptions for better readability
+	* Added type and rtype to docstrings that were missing any entries
+	* Updated all font entires in docstrings to include list as well as string
+Added stderr to Debug print if rerouting stdout
+expand_x and expand_y now in the constructor of all elements. No longer need to call Element.expand after finalizing window if using these.
+Added Window.perform_long_operation to automatically run users functions as threads
+Fixed Text.get() was returning not the latest value when set by another element
+Set cursor color to the same as the text color for Input Combo Spin Multiline Output
+Added echo_stdout to debug print so that stdout can be captured when run as a subprocess
+Addition of autosave parameter for UserSettings
+Test harness
+	Made progress meter shorter so that the test harness fit better on smaller screens (a constant battle)
+	Compacted Test Harness significantly so it's 690x670
+Added Sizegrip to Debug Window
+New Grab Anywhere move code
+Move all windows at the same timed if using grab_anywhere (experimental) (set Window._move_all_windows = True)
+Table element - set the headers to stretch if expand_x is True
+Element.set_size - if Graph element then also set the member variable CanvasSize
+added exception details when making window with 0 alpha
+Check for no color setting when setting the cursor color for inputs (must test for gray gray gray theme in the future regression tests)
+Added exception details if have a problem with the wm_overriderediect
+Addition of "project information" to the issue - your opportunity to share something about what you're making
