RC test: Natural Selection 1.1.0-rc.2

[pixelzoom]

@amanda-phet @ariel-phet, natural-selection/1.1.0-rc.2 is ready for RC testing.

Ideally, we'd like to finish this by noon on Tuesday, 9/1/2020. It should be quick - there are only 2 issues to spot check.

Document issues in https://github.com/phetsims/natural-selection/issues and link to this issue.

Assigning to @ariel-phet for prioritization.

• Click every single button.
• Test all possible forms of input.
  • Test all mouse/trackpad inputs.
  • Test all touchscreen inputs.
• If there is sound, make sure it works.
• Make sure you can't lose anything.
• Play with the sim normally.
• Try to break the sim.
• Test all query parameters on all platforms. (See QA Book for a list of query parameters.)

• When making an issue, check to see if it was in a previously published version

Focus and Special Instructions

@KatieWoe would you please test LoL?

Issues to Verify

• Appearance of "Zoom out to see data." is inconsistent
• Population graph should not display "Zoom out..." message when all checkboxes are unchecked

These issues should have the "status:ready-for-qa" label. Check these issues off and close them if they are fixed.
Otherwise, post a comment in the issue saying that it wasn't fixed and link back to this issue. If the label is
"status:ready-for-review" or "status:fixed-pending-deploy" then assign back to the developer when done, even if fixed.
