# OinkScape Beta 4.5 — release notes (public beta)

Beta **4.5** follows **4.4** with a focus on polish, naming consistency, and public-beta readiness.

## Highlights

| Area | Changes |
|------|---------|
| **Naming** | “Control room” → **Control Panel**; **Audio player**, **Streaming player**, **Web Broadcasting** tab labels; mixer and Control Panel copy aligned. |
| **Tooltips** | User-facing tooltips cleaned up (feature-focused; removed informal / implementation-only wording). |
| **Windows installer** | **Install key** step for invited beta testers; pre-install notice references NDA acceptance. |
| **Legal / ops** | Beta NDA template (`docs/legal/BETA_NONDISCLOSURE_AGREEMENT.md`); install key generation and email workflow documented. |
