1- This adds a new Material icon to identify the material entities that are linked to a parent.
Since those material entities become invisible, this help to figure their presence.
2- The Create App - Preference: "Show Zones in Create Mode"
has been removed, since it was doing nothing for a couple of years now.
the method behind is still in the API, but do nothing.
(abandoned since it was only drawing a box that wasn't useful to figure the shape of the zone)
There was no real value to bring this back in a different way.
3- The Create App - Preference: "Show Lights and Particle Systems in Create Mode"
has been renamed for "Show Icons in Create Mode"
since this setting was also managing all the icons (including Zones and now the Parented Materials)
The objective of the setting is mainly to simplify the display at the edit when a scene is very dense.
(In the future, we might want to make this "à la carte". For now, I think we can try as is. )
Previously it was 490px wide (in Desktop)
Now it will be 750 px wide (in Desktop)
The properties tab is now with an acceptable size by default. (which is closer to the landscape display we have in HMD.)
No change in HMD or in-Tablet display.
Excluding EntityShapeVisualizer from Children list
Now a name is given to the EntityShape of the EntityShapeVisualizer (used to display the zone)
so we can now exclude them from the children list when it's time to figure if there are children for an entity.
(This is a better approach than excluding al the local entities)
The name has been used because it gives better results than trying to use the id map that arrive always too late.
The name is unique for a session, it includes a UUID.
This excludes the local and avatar entities from what is returns by Entities.getChildrenIDs
to avoid the selection tools of the Zone entities to be considered as Children of it.
This was necessary for the display of the hierarchy status, but also for the "Add Children to Selection".
The Create App. Menu Items under the “Edit” menu have been cleaned up.
All the actions being transferred has been removed. (some was not even decently usable from there)
A new sub-menu “Create Application – Preferences” has been implemented to regroup the remaining menu items that are all User Preferences.
Eventually in the future, these might be moved to the Create App. UI. For now, it will be OK, it's already cleaner.
Add a new User Preference for the Default value of the Entity List Radius. This is available in the Edit menu. If changed, this value will be used as default Radius for the next time the script will be loaded.
Add an audio feedback mechanism
to play confirmation or rejection sound on specific actions that are not visually detectable.
Here for Parent and Unparent (because it not visually detectable in HMD if the action was successful or not)
Fix also a bug where the HMD multiselection could stay active after we return in Desktop mode
Now it is deactivated when the create window are closed.
Fix a bug about tablet stuck in Landscape
when the create app was open in desktop and you put your VR Headset on,
then next time you open the tablet it was in landscape mode. (because a refresh was happening after the landscape set to false at the closure)
Now the condition is geared to deal with the situation.
Fix: Reset Landscape mode in HMD
In HMD, clicking on the button "Open this Domain's Asset server" is reverting the tablet to "portrait" mode
This fix forces the mode to return to Landscape if from the Asset server we click on the "Properties" tab.
This enhancement changes the behavior when a Material Entity is created using the Create App.
Previously, if we left the URL null, no entity was created.
With this fix, if we left the URL null, then the entity is created with "materialData" already set in materialURL (ready to use Material Data).
This fixes a refresh of the FILE value in the Create App Entity list when updating the imageURL of an Image Entity.
(It was missing in the condition that checks to add to the refresh of the list.)
This solves the issue #696.
This makes the sorting of the Zone in the Zone selector
with the uppercase grouped with the lowercase for a same letter
but uppercase always first.
(Note: Accented char are considered as a different letter. We would need to support exception cases for all the existing charsets. These are only entities descriptors, not really for literature.)
This change makes the Zones Selector sorted by zone names.
To address issue: renderWithZones: zone list incorrectly sorted. #354
(But this doesn't fix the problem with the scrolling)
Set the correct value to constant: ENTIRE_DOMAIN_SCAN_RADIUS
var ENTIRE_DOMAIN_SCAN_RADIUS = 27713;
to reach all the entities of a domain from the center,(including in the corners) the radius must be:
sqr((16000 ^2) + (16000) ^2 + (16000 ^2))
which is once rounded = to 27713.
