What's New in This Release:
· The /Applications/Smile folder now contains a SmileLab droplets folder that contains some droplets to plot basic ascii files in SmileLab.
· The SmileLab plot interface now has a script button (on the bottom of the left menu) that copy a script in the Console window corresponding to the panel displayed in the interface (enabled only on settings panels).
· In a plot view containing several curves, you can now change the index of a curve. Open the curves settings (choose Edit settings in the contextual menu), then choose the Data > Curves section. The curves definitions are now separated by a thick gray line: click and drop that line to move the curve's definition and change its position in the list.
· You can now use GLObjects (a kind of visualization objects that can be contained by a view3D) to define quad sets, tetrahedra or parallelepipeds. Cf the discussion about GLObjects in Smile's dictionary for more info.
· The kinds triangle and quad of GLObjects have been renamed into triangle strip and quad strip.
· If the decimal separator defined in the system preferences is not ".", you may encounter difficulties in coercing text into number. For example, "1.5" as real will throw an error if the decimal separator is set to "," (as in French settings). On Leopard, you can now define the use of "." as decimal separator in Smile without affecting the system preferences. This setting can be set in the General panel of the preference dialog of Smile (choose the Smile > preferences menu to open it.) NB: That feature does not work on Tiger.
· Graphic library & manipulating images: Some CoreImage filters are now available in Smile. The new CIfilter names command lists the available image filters. The new info for CIfilter command returns the descriptions of such filters. The new filter image command applies an image filter to an image file.
· Many more improvements... [
