2. Fixes
- User Interface: Fixed an issue where UI elements would overlap or disappear when the application window was resized to its minimum dimensions.
- Color Picker: Resolved a conflict where typing numerical values into the Color Picker would inadvertently trigger camera movement shortcuts.
- Camera: Fixed a bug that caused visual artifacts to appear during camera movement while in Orthographic Mode, ensuring a clean and stable image.
