Periodically, updates for FotoFusion are released. These updates include minor new features and bug fixes, the details of which are listed in manual under the What's New section.

When a new build is launched, FotoFusion will display a notice to prompt you to update. We recommend that you update your software when prompted as new builds will provide you with important improvements to the software.

FotoFusion allows you to customize your update preferences. This is done by setting your channel preference in the User Preset area.

You can set your installation of FotoFusion to be "tuned into" a particular channel of update.
Most users will choose to follow the Mainstream channel, which will only prompt you to update your software to a very well tested and proven build of the software, the one currently being offered for download on the LumaPix website.

Other users will be more adventurous, and choose a beta or alpha channel. This will prompt the installation of software that will contain  the most recent features and fixes, but that has not been as thoroughly tested. There may be bugs (some serious, if it's in "alpha" release) and users should be cautious when updating to these builds. Backwards compatibility (meaning, moving back to an older build) may not be possible.

To set a preference, click on EDIT on the menu, and choose User Preferences. Choose "Change Channel Update" at the bottom of the editor:

Some users may be limited to only one channel (eg. YearbookFusion users, users running special builds that have features that are not compatible with later releases).
