OhmsGrid: Clip Launcher is the new App Store name, with a new icon to match. • New Controller panel in the Inspector: see which pad controller is connected, which profile drives it, and a live mirror of the pad and scene lights OhmsGrid sends to it. • The grid header and status bar show local engine state instead of model details. • The model download sheet shows the full license address as text. • Settings no longer lists other apps.
