Version 1.1 released
by Marc Rautenhaus (comments: 0)
We are happy to announce the release of Met.3D version 1.1! New features include:
- An interactive transfer function editor and functionality for basic direct volume rendering (DVR) has been added.
- Support for textured filled contours in horizontal sections to facilitate stippling and hatching.
- The synchronization control supports restriction of allowed times to available times in selected datasets and provides enhanced animation control.
- Visualizations can be directly saved to a graphics file from a scene view by pressing “s”.
- The trajectory actor can be created at runtime.
- Support for cmake to compile the source code.
- Enhanced support for contour line appearance in 2D sections.
- Support for different camera navigation modes: move camera, rotate scene, 2D top view.
- Many further small usability improvements...
