In order to maintain the high level of quality of Zed! Pro, some new features have been implemented in Zed! Pro for Windows 1.0.170, Zed! Pro for Linux 1.0.174 and Zed! Pro for Mac 1.0.174.
These features are operational starting from February 24, 2016.

Otherwise you need to download and use the new version from your customer space.
