This build may have asset shelf header properties broken.
To fix, close all editors with the broken asset shelf, respawn the editor and it will be fixed. Then save the startup.
This release is focused on new Compositor assets that come out of the box, new smart asset updates and apply operators, and much much love to the node editors.
This is part of all the latest from Blender 5.0.0 and 5.1.0 to the date - with 242 new tokens of love from us and a large chunk also from Blender!
⚠️ Warning: *.BlendFile formats from this version onwards will not be backwards compatible with earlier versions of Blender 4.5.x or Bforartists 4.4.x. It's a one way trip!
