- Great. almost everything works)) 1. The track color is not visible (make with A-channel) 2. Do 4 text searches 3. In the settings, the animation is beautiful, but not clear. Just make drawings. 4. Open a new tab next to it, not at the end of the tabs. 5. Remove "then". 6. The function: "pop-up view" is simply gorgeous! 7. Custom Cursor (very popular) Thanks !
