 # MagellanMapper v1.3 Release Notes
 
+## MagellanMapper v1.3.2 (beta)
+
+This beta release streamlines scripts to install and run MagellanMapper through a file browser, without requiring a terminal. Registered images can now be loaded and overlaid through the GUI. The image import panel auto-populates available metadata, and RAW format images can be imported. Image intensity controls better adapt to the current image.
+
