Align or rotate lines in variable blocks.
Override font, alignment or colour for certain lines.

Quite Hot Enhancements
Set up queues to process files, filtered by filename. Many users work with hot folders, and up to version 5 only one sequence/XML could be active per input folder. Now, filters can be used to choose different work according to the filename.
XML editing directly. Users who worked with XML command files had to import them as a sequence and export back to XML. Now it can create or edit XML command files directly.
Use 'variables' to adjust settings (such as number of rows, page height, text to add...). This is a huge new feature for power users. Previously a sequence had specific values hard coded into it. Now variables can be used for most of the settings, and variables can be set in a variety of different ways. Most simply, set variables directly from the filename eg TUE_LAYOUT-COPIES=3
