## Changelog

### 2017-01-16

I did some cleanup while working on support for [group layers](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/issues/1038):

- [f4f85a8](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/commit/f4f85a8644fbdea3a81d31900538607e1a8742a0) Unified New Layer menu actions
- [eb44b06](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/commit/eb44b06a433950cdfdcc6fa48970297aaa8eec4d) Python plugin: Removed Layer.setMap from bindings

Also, since I don’t like how Tiled looks when simply scaled up and because I’m getting annoyed by related bugs, I also worked to [improve DPI-awareness in many places](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/commit/27d89b1e4519eff5c565d44d3485754d9ea6c560). Apart from the icons, Tiled now looks quite decent on any DPI. Here’s Tiled at 160 DPI:

That last one is really neat. It was requested by a developer of [AsteriodFight](https://twitter.com/asteroidfight), a team based action RTS, and it makes it easier to create maps with equal opportunities for both sides, like for example:
