Changelog

• Feature #87 #88 #143 : Sub-sections for Body custom properties
• Feature #145 : Surface Deform option for outfits
• Bug #150 : Warning tab for old UI scripts was not showing correctly
• Bug #146 : An error might occur when removing custom properties
• Bug #148 : Custom Properties assignment is removed when Section name is changed
• Internal : Removed old code with sections (was substituted with UIList)

Note #141: if you are using the Armature Outfit Switcher, please remove BOTH the outfit piece and the collection (in this order!), and disable it. Since this feature might causes crashes, I hidden it with the Experimental Features addon flag: thus enable it to remove this feature from your models! You can find this flag in the addon settings (Blender Settings -> search for MustardUI) similarly to the Developer and Debug modes. This will be hopefully fixed in Blender 4.1 .
