eVSM v11.42 - 29-Oct-2020

• Sped up Highlight Sets tool considerably by utilizing product cache data
• Modified Auto Seq button to automatically recognize connections to Product Set Centers, and automatically link from the last non-set center in the selection. This speeds up sequencing so it can be done in a single multi-selection and button click
