Airsoft Softwair has announced the availability of MUI Royale 1.1.
This is an update and contains some minor fixes and new features.

MUI GUIs with Hollywood. MUI Royale supports over 40 MUI classes including popular third-party classes like TextEditor.mcc and TheBar.mcc. Creating
and managing menustrips is also fully supported. The plugin sets new
standards concerning the ease of use because the GUI layout can be
conveniently defined using an XML file that is converted into a MUI GUI by
MUI Royale on the fly. GUI design has never been so easy! Of course, new features of MUI 4.0 are also supported.
MUI Royale requires at least Hollywood 5.2 and is provided free of charge
for all users of Hollywood. It is available for AmigaOS 3 (m68k), AmigaOS
