This build’s got a lot of new stuff to check out in addition to a full stack of bug fixes.
Panel Components
New features have been added to reduce the need for expressions and make panels much more flexible in their layout and sizing. We’ve added Aspect, Anchor, and Fill modes for width and height sizing and a full reorganization and tweaking all parameter pages. Sorry about destroying your muscle memory, but this was long overdue as these operators have received new features here and there over 8 years and needed a reworking to make more manageable.
Python Programming - BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY WARNING
Important changes have been made to casting in TouchDesigner’s python implementation to bring it more inline with casting in python proper. For now these changes will just throw warnings but in the future this will be removed and cause errors if you are happen to be casting the old way. Changing “Show Startup Errors” to “Warnings” in the Preference dialog can help alert you to these occurring in your projects.
Please read the release notes and attempt to fix your warnings.
Some other goodies include;
- The CUDA TOP is being dropped soon but now CUDA has been added to the C++ TOP giving you all the new and improved features of the C++ TOP like custom parameter creation and so on.
- The Blob Track TOP has been overhauled with the latest openCV and is much easier to setup and use now.
- A new Black Trax CHOP bring in data from Black Trax motion tracking systems.
