- (v3.2+) ScreenFontStyle added to TextChildContentModel and SceneGraphFragmentContentModel
- (v3.2+) LayoutLayer is an X3DLayerNode which is contained within the LayerSet content model
- (v3.2+) Layer, LayoutLayer and Viewport added to SceneGraphFragmentContentModel (since not in any ChildContentModel)
- (v3.1+) Corrected X3DFogObject containerField default to "children"

=============================================================================

X3D DTD update activity:

29 September 2012, brutzman
- (v3.2+) ScreenFontStyle added to FontStyleNodes
- (v3.2+) LayoutLayer is allowed within the LayerSet content model

=============================================================================

Tooltips have been added for Layout component:  Layout, LayoutGroup, LayoutLayer,
ScreenFontStyle, and ScreenGroup nodes.  Only Picking sensor component tooltips
remain to be added.  Reference links have been added to the bottom of each page
for versions 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 tooltips.

These validation cases can be tested using the X3D Validator service.
