• Enviro: restored Layer Dialog control of structure shadows

09.08.22

• vtlib: in vtTiledGeom, enable true ortho culling in DoRender() by setting fpu=0
• vtlib: in vtTiledGeom, support querying normals in FindAltitudeAtPoint()

09.08.18

• vtlib: Call makecurrent in vtTiledGeom::DoRender which fixes behavior when switching between multiple tileset terrains (KG)

09.08.15

• vtlib: fix typo that prevented GenerateContours() from working
• vtlib: fix another case to prevent building highlight spheres from casting a shadow

09.08.12

• Enviro: fix fog distance in runtime ephemeris dialog (KG)

09.08.05

• vtlib: fix tiny leak in vtIntersectionEngine
• vtlib: fix tracking of vtImage objects by vtMaterial by using an osg::ref_ptr
• vtlib: in AddMultiTextureOverlay, fix support for image layers on tilesets with non-meter-unit CRS (KG)

09.08.04

• vtdata: added handy string fns vtConcatArray and vtExtractArray
• VTBuilder: implemented MRU menus (saved to the options .xml file) for projects, layers, and imports

09.08.03

• Enviro/vtlib: added support for a TIN water surface, exposed in GUI
• vtdata: added vtTin::SetSurfaceType

09.08.01

• VTBuilder: fix status bar (GetHeightFromTerrain) to always report height of top (most visible) elevation
• VTBuilder: extend 'generate TIN from Raw' to handle regular polygons with height from a field
• VTBuilder: set modified on 'Merge shared TIN vertices'

09.07.31

• VTBuilder: mark layers as modified when they are reprojected
• VTBuilder: add progress reporting on load of large SHP files
• VTBuilder: use double-progress for elevation layer rendering, to reduce excessive dialog open/close on modern, fast computers
• vtdata: avoid using sscanf into a bool in ColorMap::Load (seems to fix obscure release-only stack corruption)
• vtui: added SetProgressDialogParent
• vtosg: to avoid some issues with memory usage, added USE_IMAGE_CACHE which defaults to 0 to disable vtosg's cache

09.07.26

• VTBuilder: added command "Select structure by index"
• Enviro: added command "Write Elevation to BT"

09.07.21

• VTBuilder: fix issue with 8-bit TIF images w/o a colortable
• VTBuilder: fix display of RGB under cursor for image layers
• VTBuilder: fix sampling of elevation to not exclude exact edge case

09.07.20

• fixes for OSX build (Stefan)

<release 090505, SVN revision 7174>

09.04.25

• vtdata: put check in FillGapsSmooth to exit if no gaps are filled on a pass
• vtlib: added vtRoute::_DeleteStruct

09.03.29

• VTBuilder: fix LoadFromGDAL to not accept Local CRS, because later operations depends on it
• VTBuilder: disable "Create Overviews in Memory" unless LOD 0 is in memory
• vtosg: fix support for angled roofs on buildings with footprint holes (RJ)
• vtosg: added module LightSpacePerspectiveShadowTechnique to projects

09.03.27

• vtdata: fix support for non-square grids in SaveToXYZ
• all: moved up to OSG 2.8.0, which support recent improvements to vtosg's shadow code

09.03.18

• vtlib: created an unshadowed group on each terrain for things that should not be affected at all by shadows, and moved abstract layers into it, solving the problem that they were sometimes affected

09.03.15

• vtdata: added datum equivalency for RT90
• vtdata: RMF: fix potential stack corruption with bad 'shortSize' by using a temp variable

09.03.13

• experimental CMake build support files added (RJ)
• fixes for stack corruption where %d was being used to read into a short (RJ)
• VTBuilder: fix boundary condition when sampling from an image layer (Stefan)

09.03.11

• VTBuilder: fix case where an elevation tile with invalid size 2 is exported (Stefan)

09.02.25

• prSimple: fixed build by adding minidata project to solutions

09.02.19

• vtdata: added vtFindString

09.02.17

• vtlib: avoid shadows cast from structure highlights
• vtlib: avoid creating a vtGeom for every tree, instead one per appearance using multiple-parenting under each transform, reduces memory per tree by ~38%

• VTBuilder: remove redundant "Show Toolbar" from Options dialog
• VTBuilder: fix bug in SampleImagery which was producing no output (red pixels) in a common case

09.01.29

• Enviro: add default locations for GDAL_DATA and PROJ_LIB, to permit running the Windows binaries on a new machine without doing an install
• Enviro: expose 'texture LOD factor' in the terrain parameters, which is a better name for 'prange' which used to be only exposed at runtime

09.01.22

• vtosg: abstract layers should not cast shadows

09.01.16

• Fix for building against OSG double matrices (RJ)

09.01.13

• added quikgrid to svn deps folder from gcode as an svn:external
