Nan, Roice,
Thank you for feedbacks!
I’ve fixed bugs with right-click in 5D puzzle (attempt to twist non-existent vertex-centered layer) and issue with buttons outside of number of layers - program is uploaded to the same place. Hiding of mirrored blocks during animation is in my todo list, and rotation of cell outline has very low priority (probably zero). There are some things that I have to do: timer, twist counter, optimization and recalculation, testing of log save/load commands, library file for puzzles (instead of many separate txt files), computation of main symmetry groups for 4D, and so on…

Good luck!
Andrey
