Gaffer 1.0.5.0

[johnhaddon]

Features

• Rename : Added a new node for renaming scene locations (SceneProcessor for renaming locations #1201).
• LookTransform : Added a new node for applying OpenColorIO looks to images.

Improvements

• SplinePlug : Added Constant interpolation mode.
• SceneReader : Added reading of more Alembic GeomParam types. Specifically unsigned char, uint16, int16 and uint32 GeomParams are loaded as UCharVectorData, UShortVectorData, ShortVectorData and UIntVectorData PrimitiveVariables respectively.
• SceneWriter : Added writing of more Alembic GeomParam types, mirroring the improved reading mentioned above.
• Light Editor : Added the ability to select linked objects and to delete lights. Both commands can can be accessed by right-clicking a light name and selecting either 'Select Linked Objects' or 'Delete'.
• Graph Editor : When changing the root of the Graph Editor (such as entering or exiting a Box), framing is now restored specifically for the current Graph Editor. Previously, a single framing history was used for all Graph Editors.

Fixes

• GraphEditor : Fixed handling of errors on Dot.labelType and Dot.label plugs.
• EditScope : Fixed mislocated plug nodules when connecting a new EditScope to a BoxIn, BoxOut or Box node.
• Backdrop : Fixed bug selecting or moving a backdrop when zoomed out in the GraphEditor, where drag-resizing the top edge was incorrectly being given precedence.
• CDL : Fixed handling of values for the direction plug. Previously, OCIO::TransformDirection enum values were being used directly as plug values, but OpenColorIO 2 broke compatibility by changing the enum. A new GafferImage::CDL::Direction enum provides stable values for use in the CDL.direction plug, insulating Gaffer from future changes.
• ViewPlugValueWidget :
  • Fixed bug which caused images to be evaluated in the wrong context.
  • Fixed error handling bug which could prevent the NodeEditor from building.
• CropWindowTool :
  • Fixed bug which caused images to be evaluated in the wrong context.
  • Fixed bug handling images with non-default views.
• Cycles : Fixed rendering with a non-default crop window.
• Arnold : Fixed handling of closure shader connections in USD materials exported from Maya.

Build

• Cortex : Updated to 10.4.2.1.
