Changes

• Added snaps to mapping view, corner and edge snapping can be turned on or off with the ‘c’ and ‘e’ keys.
• Space bar deselects current layer in full screen view.

Fixes

• Small bugs fixed pixked up when extending unit testing.
• Outputs view tidied up and updated with more instructions.

Fixes

Mostly GUI updates and fixes for this release

• Fixed mapping layers image unit and overlay getting confused if done in certain orders.
• Current image unit no longer available as an overlay in the pop up button.
• Chop area type popover editor table cleaned up.
• Layers inspector view tidied up.
• Fixed typo in help of mapping layers view, add extra paragraph on adding and removing layers.
• Circular warp now properly updates dimensions if image input is changed.

Changes

Table cell views no longer render all the time. Although it looked nice, it would play havoc with the render rate. Cell views will update if moved, or if you mouse over the view. The previous functionality can be turned back on in the preferences, but the document must be restarted.

Fixes

• Fixed glitching when using video with a processor.
• Full screen views now exit full screen on document close.
• Fixed various bindings errors in the GUI.
• Fixed some deallocation and observation problems caused during document closing.
• Max texture size increased to 4096×4096.

First Release!

It’s been in Beta long enough, time for the first release. Shop is now available to purchase a full copy. Please contribute, I don’t have a job at the moment, and I’m working on this full time with only unemployment benefits to support me!

Other fixes

• Fixed Yosemite crash trying to add Syphon source.
• Fixed Yosemite problem resizing windows causing preview views to glitch.
• Fixed occasional hang on document opening.
• Various small bugs fixed identified in unit testing.

Yosemite update and small fixes.

• Fixes crash on startup when running Yosemite.
• Fixes save when circular warp is set to 360 degrees
• Fixes a few internal configuration issues.

New Circular Warp processor

This release has a new processor, a Circular Warp distortion, bend inputs areas to your will. It has options specifically to set up for projection mapping a waveform to a turntable as seen in some of my videos. Either set the dergrees for the arc, or switch to turntable mode and use the total length of the waveform in seconds, combined with the record speed to get a waveform perfectly matched to the turntable. This feature was a long time in coming, but would not work to a satisfactory performance level in it’s previous CI Filter form. Implemented in my own openGL solution, it’s super fast even on large areas.

Changes

• Processors view redsigned, the processor controls have been removed from the main view and image inputs table expanded. Controls area was normally too small to be useful.
• Processors now have inspector popups, controls accessed from there.
• Insert dialog updated to look better and added more controls.
• QC Compositions can now have dimensions updated after insert.
• Added help popoup to the mapping layers view.
• General small GUI updates to layout, spacing, constraints etc.
• Texture sizes limited to 2048×2048 or as large as the GPU allows (May be adjustable in the future, depending on GPU)

Fixes

• QC Parameters sometimes not being available fixed.
• Fixed layer table view constraints in outputs view.
• Fixed 2 channel mixer shader inputs and controls.
• Fixed crash on document close if image processors were in use.

Fixes

• Fixed add image processors button.

Reality Augmenter Release Notes 0.9.1

Image Unit and Mapping Layer Changes

The single chop area processors are no longer available to the user. They are now automatically maintained internally by the application, and most of their functionality moved to the mapping layers. This makes adding processors entirely optional, basic mixing and image processing can be done directly from the outputs screen. This also brings openGL performance improvements, reducing texture copy and memory usage, moving work to the shaders.

Changes

• Single Area Processors removed from interface, Processors now an optional stage.
• Mapping layers table cell views updated.
• New popup inspector available for mapping layers.
• Colour pickers made available to choose alpha colour for Processors or Overlays.
• Opacity control added for Overlays.
• Negative option available for Processors and Overlays.
• Colour match for alpha now has a small tolerance for smoother effect.
• Added check boxes to turn masks and overlays on or off seperate to the layer control.
• Default mapping layer created for new documents.

Fixes

• Fixed rendering sometimes not updating after changing Mask, Processor or Overlay in a mapping layer.
• Circular mask calculates a better optimum size, looks much smoother and less wastefull.
• Rendering objects provider reclaims resources better.
• Shader code reorganised.
