|
|

* Attempting to open dxf, off or stl files in the GUI will now create an import statement.
|
|
* The preview operator (%) will now preserve any manually set color
|

|
|
**Bugfixes:**
|
|
* Importing files is now always relative to the importing script, also for libraries
|
|
* We didn't always print a warning when CSG normalization created too many elements
|
|
* Binary STLs can now be read on big endian architectures
|
|
* Some binary STLs couldn't be read
|
|
* Fixed some issues related to ARM builds
|
|
* CGAL triangulation more lenient- enables partial rendering of 'bad' DXF data
|
|
* The Automatic Reload feature is now more robust
|
|
* If a file couldn't be saved it no longer fails silently
|
|
* Fixed a number of crashes related to CGAL and OpenCSG rendering or complex models
|
|
* The lookup() function had bad boundary condition behavior
|
|
* The surface() module failed when the .dat file lacked a trailing newline
|
|
* The hull() module could crash if any of the children were empty objects
|
|
* Some problems using unicode filenames have been fixed
|
|
|
|
**Misc:**
|
|
* Build scripts have been further improved
|
|
* Regression test now creates single monolithic .html file for easier uploading
|
|
* Regression test auto-starts & stops Xvfb / Xvnc if on headless unix machine
|
|
* The backend is finally independent of Qt
|
|
* Windows: We now have a 64-bit version
|
|
|
|
**Known Bugs:**
|
|
* Linux: command-line png rendering on Gallium is flaky.
|
|
Workaround: use CGAL --render or hardware rendering.
