What's new since Clarisse iFX 3.6 SP3:
New Features and Enhancements
Rendering
- A Matte Object AOV Mode has been added to the renderer which controls the behavior of Matte Objects in AOVs. Check the documentation for more information. (#8406)
Bug Fixes
General UI
- Fixed the camera manipulation using mouse and tablet in the 3D View and the Image View. It used to be too slow depending on the width of the widget. (#8223)
- Fixed a display bug in Map File and Streamed Map File texture nodes where the File Color Space attribute became modifiable even when Color Space Auto Detect mode was enabled. (#8190)
- Fixed an issue where we could lose overrides on a reference after making a context local and undoing it. (#8434)
- Fixed update issues that occurred when reloading references that were modified on disk. Sometimes, objects in sub contexts were disappearing. (#7912)
- Fixed an issue with the serialization of overrides, some attributes were not serialized properly. (#8456)
- Fixed an issue while OpenSubdiv mode where instances of the same geometries with different crease levels were using the wrong crease level. (#7503)
SDK Changes
Scripting
- ix.reference_file has been fixed to return the created OfContext when invoked with a single filename, and return True or False when invoked with an array of filenames.
To manage several filenames and retrieve the resulting OfContexts, a new command is now available:
ix.reference_files takes an array of filenames as input and returns an array of OfContexts.
2 new methods are available:
OfContext * IOHelpers::reference_file(OfContext& working_context, const CoreString& filename)
bool IOHelpers::reference_files(OfContext& working_context, const CoreBasicArray<corestring>& filenames, CoreVector<ofcontext *="">& refs)</ofcontext></corestring> (#8432) - Commands to edit SceneObject transformation now works for all SceneItem objects (including Locator, Camera...) as well. (#8412)
- An event is now sent when there is a change in the unit system: EVT_ID_APPLICATION_UNIT_SYSTEM_CHANGE. (#8418)
