How to enable beta in Jackhammer

If you have not tried the Jackhammer map editor, we strongly recommend you to do it, as it offers significantly more options than Valve Hammer and Q3Radiant. At the same time, it copies Valve Hammer interface, so you will have no problems during the migration. Those who already use it could notice that updates have not been released for a long time. But its not true, because it updates only in the beta version, which is turned off by default. Behind the spoiler you can see main changes compared to stable version at this moment (11/08/2019): Spoiler

Profile system: multi-user support; settings are not reset on "Cache integrity checks" anymore
MacOS operating system support (tested on Sierra and newer)
Holding ALT in vertex manipulation snaps vertices to one-pixel grid instead of current grid
Entity report: can search by value without a key
Entity report: sorting by clicking column headers
Faster loading of a map with lots of models
Display rotation angle in vertex manipulation
The editor now closes much faster
Improved pointfile display with RGB gradient
The editor now can export geometry to OBJ file format (File -> Export to OBJ). You can also export the selection, or only the objects within a cordon. Faces with NULL/caulk textures are not exported
The editor now remembers the selection frame in Block Tool; you can undo creation of a primitive, and restore the frame. This can be extremely useful when you erroneously create a primitive of another type rather than the anticipated one. Hit Ctrl+Z, select another primitive type and hit Enter again!
Shortcuts are now displayed in context menus
The editor will not copy object after moving with Shift if it was not translated
And many other things which will be added before release
