What's new in this version:

Added:
- Show Collections to which an item belongs (added to the contextual menu in the Contact Sheet and Preview windows.)

- Flush status log messages before Scan Complete is displayed in Scan to Catalog
- New option to slideshow to only allow the Escape key to quit the slideshow
- Updated Nikon and Canon lens info
- Dropbox uploader - Made sure that the new token and ID formats won't break the template. Dropbox will be updating their access tokens and ID formats in September. This update should address the upcoming change
