 - Added threshold before a drag starts which improves false negative rates for clicks. `Button` can now trigger on click and not mouse-down which is the canonical behavior in other GUI systems [#4336](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/4336).
 - `PolarAxis` font size now defaults to global figure `fontsize` in the absence of specific `Axis` theming [#4314](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/4314)
 - `MultiplesTicks` accepts new option `strip_zero=true`, allowing labels of the form `0x` to be `0` [#4372](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/4372)
+- Make near/far of WGLMakie JS 3d camera dynamic, for better depth_shift scaling [#4430](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/4430).
