ad/area_volume_table

* NOT PUBLISHED
  • Rewrote the "Area & Volume" code to make very good use of the new multi-column feature in the table widget. The calculations can be made faster (for large meshes) by having a triangulator that does NOT beautify the triangles. Speed, however, is not very important.
  • ag/build_fixes

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • On some systems, makeself.sh is named makeself.sh and on some makeself, also they can reside in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin, tried to catch all cases
  • There is no such directory as plugins/fonts, it wasn't removed from make_installer
  • Exact path shouldn't be assumed I think, on some OS install sits in /bin not /usr/bin
  • On 64 bit linux (at least my distro) fPIC is needed to build JPEG plugin.
  • bg/prefs-in-sub-directory

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • Unix: Put the preference file in a sub-directory
  • MacOS X: Put the preference file in a sub-directory
  • Support preferences in sub-directories for all platforms
  • wings_pref.erl: Removed unused WIN32_OLD_PREFS define
  • dgud/auv_shaders

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: AutoUV: Added a simple world space normal shader.
  • rj/auv_circularise

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: AutoUV: Added Edge|Circularise to AutoUV. [optigon]
  • rj/auv_seg_view

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: AutoUV: Fix to ensure that Segmentation window opens with elements visible in viewport. [optigon]
  • rj/auv_xy_move

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: AutoUV: Added Move Horizontal and Vertical. [optigon]
  • rj/bridge

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Face|Bridge has been extended to connect any two face regions regardless of how many faces or vertices they each have. [optigon]
  • rj/connect

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Minor changes to Tools|Connect to allow consecutive vertices to be placed on the same edge. [optigon]
  • rj/cycle_ssels

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Saved selection groups have been updated to allow Cycling via hotkey, and this feature can be set to cycle only within the current selection mode. I also added some selection group delection options. One option deletes all saved groups, and the other deletes only those groups that are corrupt. [optigon]
  • rj/drag

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: I have changed the mouse buttons that perform secondary drag operations. For instance, Move|Free has an option to drag in the direction of the screen normal, and this option was bound to MMB. Now it is activated by holding LMB instead. Simiar changes were made to all the other tools that use a single secondary drag parameter. Also, introducing Hold LMB into the mix, allowed me to make Face|Sweep fully articulated between all four drag parameters (Extrude, Angle, Scale, and Rotation). [optigon]
  • rj/explode

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: New Feature: Body|Explode scales objects from a defined center. Includes standard and user axes, uniform, and radial axis options. (Thanks to ggaliens for the idea) [optigon]
  • rj/menu_fixes

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Plugin Manager format fixes. [optigon]
  • rj/new_ui

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: New interface features including: - A Menu Toolbar with icons for undo/redo, repeat last command, changing selection modes, and opening the Select or Tools menus can be switched on via Preferences|User Interface. - A new facility for saving and loading preferences from and into your current session, has been added to the File menu. These new preference subsets are appended with the .pref extension, and are saved separately from your 'master' Wings preference file. Additionally, both the Save and Load dialogs allow you to choose from catagories of preferences you'd like to load or save: hotkeys, graphical elements, etc. - New icons for the Outliner and Geometry Graph that allow you to use custom colors for how they look. These icons can be switched on in Preferences|User Interface. - Other minor changes include a new color scheme and some minor tweaks to the existing gui elements. Switch between the Classic Green theme and the new Dark Blue theme in File|Load Preferences. [optigon]
  • rj/nth_ring

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Added Select|Edge Loop|Select Nth Ring. [optigon]
  • rj/pan_speed

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: The arrow key and scroll wheel pan speed preferences have been changed to offer a more useful range of adjustment. [optigon]
  • rj/planecut

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: New Feature: Plane Cut for objects and face regions. [optigon]
  • rj/rollup4

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: New Feature: Rollup any window by clicking on its titlebar. The main Geometry window behaves differently and doesn't rollup. Instead, it moves from the foreground to the background, either covering or revealing any coexisting windows. [optigon]
  • rj/sharp

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Select|By|Sharp Edges now allows you to specify Peaks, Valleys, or Both. [optigon]
  • rj/snap_image

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: In the Tools menu, Snap Image and Screenshot have been extended in several useful ways. It is now possible to take a screenshot of just the main viewport. Coupled with this feature are changes to Snap Image, which now has options to Fit the image to the viewport's dimensions. This new combination of features allows for better projection painting workflows using a 2d painting program like Gimp. The new Screenshot features are available through in its options dialog. You can also save the current view to the Saved Views at the same time and with the same name as the screenshot so that they can be aligned later. [optigon]
  • rj/sweep_fix

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Sweep extrusion normal fix. [optigon]
  • rj/tweak9

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Added rewrite of Tweak. [optigon]
  • rj/vs_to_loop

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: New Feature: Select|Edge Loop while in vertex mode will now convert consecutive vertices to edges. [optigon]
  • rj/weld_fix

    * NOT PUBLISHED
  • NOTE: Welding objects with only two faces could crash. (Thanks to Fonte Boa). [optigon]
