2022.02 January 15, 2022
Note: macOS now requires macOS 10.14. 10.12 and 10.13 are no longer supported
Note: The DMX models have changed from using world coordinates for various sizes (like beam lengths) to
values relative to the size/scale parameters. Thus, users will need adjust things to accomodate.
Pixel sizes are also consistent between 2D and 3D and thus may also need adjusting.
— enh (gil) Add multiple string support to PolyLine
— enh (dkulp) Move all UI views from OpenGL to Metal on macOS
— enh (dkulp) 3D and 2D layouts use same code paths (just flattend for 2D) so features like cyan starting
nodes will work on 3D layout.
— enh (dkulp) 2D layouts now use flattened 3D meshes for DMX models instead of a red X
— enh (scott) Automation: add getModels, getControllerNames and getControllerIPs
— enh (scott) Add LUA scripting engine for scripting Automations
— enh (keith) Show which panes are visible with checkmarks in the view menu

Hi Keith, there seems to be a bug with archers and floods. When playing sequences they just come on from the house layout (they are just the white shapes)
