Build 897 (12th August 2011)

This section lists changes made since Fusion 6.2 build 874 was released.

Core

• If exception mail sending fails, then the msg text is added to the zip file, and the zip file is highlighted in an explorer window for easy mailing to bugs@eyeonline.com.
• Fixed online help locations for world-position tools
• Optimisations to internal AlphaDivide() and AlphaMultiply().
• Tweak to reduce internal script connections.
• Fixed possible crash when attempting to close a comp twice.

Tools

• Fixed some bad pixels in Volume Mask when OpenCL is off.
• Volume Mask: Removed unused 3D/Camera inputs
• Volume Fog && Volume Mask:

• Fix for OpenCL on ATI when Z Slices = 1
• "Use OpenCL" option is now only visible when OpenCL is available.

• Z to WorldPos: Added Z2W icon string
• Fix for interpolation of first segment in tracker spline

Formats

• Fixed frame time bug in QTServer causing missing frames and compression errors every 150 frames or so.
• Fixed mapped files bug in QTServer when accessing multiple MOVs, which caused it to use the (much slower) TCP/IP method.

Particles

• Added position channel functions (getpx1b etc) to pCustomForce.
• Fixed crash with styles such as point cluster.
• Fixed pSpawn/pFlock crashes.
• Fixed minor memory leak.

3D

• Adding a 3D shape or renderer, then undoing, then choosing that shape/renderer again, will correctly re-add the inputs, etc rather than either crashing or leaving the inputs invisible.
• Fixed a crash when rendering aux channels with per-vertex lighting.
• Spheremaps used without envcoords (no reflections/reflections) now match the GL renderer.

OpenCL

• Can build OpenCL kernels from fuses with regnodes instead of source path, e.g. mgr:BuildCachedProgram(self.RegNode, clsource)
• Added support for FuRect & FuRectInt to fuse functions SetArg() & SetArgInt()

Display Views

• Fixed first & last entry scaling when importing Shake LUTs.
• Added support for reading Lustre 1D LUTs.
• Fixed viewing cached OpenCL images in SubViews.
• Importing Truelight LUTs is now smarter when detecting 10bit -> 12bit LUTs (fixes some Nuke LUTs)

Polylines, Paths & Grid Mesh

• Stability tweak when using polyline strokes with published points.
• Many fixes, optimisations and code improvements for parsing and applying SVG shape transformation, and text importing.
• Added option to mark tagged points with numbers to more easily keep track of them (toggled via context menu->Show->Show Tagged Point IDs).
• Optimisation of updating XYPath key points when loading.

Splines, Timeline & Spline Editor

• Spline key points can now be offset & scaled in time beyond neighboring points (in the UI and in BezierSpline::AdjustKeyFrames() )
• Fixed a problem with caching Bezier step-in segments that are set for looping

Scripts, Scripting and Fuses

• Added GetDoD(), GetRoI(), GetInputDoD() & GetInputRoI() to fuse Requests objects.
• Added support for IMG_ValidWindow when creating fuse images.
• Support for Registry nodes in fuses.
• Added Object.RegNode member to fuse objects
• Added global & comp MapPathSegments() script functions, and help strings for other path map funcs.
• Added support for input { left,bottom,top,right } tables to fuse FuRect functions.
• Improved Help docs for script BezierSpline::AdjustKeyFrames()
• Added two extra optional args to BezierSpline::AdjustKeyFrames() - the X and Y values to scale around (defaults to 0.0).
• RealFastNoise.fuse wasn't generating instantaneous valid extents during PreCalc, when seethe != 0, which would stop seethe from working through concatenated transforms tools.
