macOS 10.15 Supplemental Update 2?
Saw a new build number (19A603) for macOS 10.15 Catalina in the Oct. 21st dev releases. I assume another "Supplemental Update", available via software update. (Last week's Supplemental Update was build 19A602.) This may be a revised installer/bug fix, since I'm told if you installed the 19A602 update, you may not get the 19A603 update. (The info in software update is the same as last week's Supplemental Update, and like the last 2 Mojave Supplemental Updates, Apple didn't name the second one a "2".)

Pixelmator Pro 1.5.1 Update
Pixelmator Pro version 1.5.1 (for macOS 10.13 or later, with 64-bit processor) adds a new Soft Proof Colors feature so you can quickly view the colors of an image in different color spaces (such as CMYK) and adds a number of additional improvements and fixes, including many related color management issues. (See linked app store page or Pixelmator Pro updates page for more details. The previous v1.5 update added support for macOS Catalina, Multi-GPUs, EDR mode, ML Denoise, and promised improved performance.)
