After quite a long time I am happy to announce that a maintenance release for the following products has been released:
- Ab2d.ReaderSvg with ViewerSvg,
- Ab2d.ReaderWmf with Paste2Xaml,
- Ab2d.ZoomPanel,
- Ab3d.Reader3ds with Viewer3ds.
New version mainily include some bug fixes and improvements that were created based on users feedback.
The following is the what's new list:
Ab2d.ReaderSvg
- Fixed reading text with gradient fill or stroke brush.
- Prevent throwing exception when incorrect number text was used for numbers.
- Invisible objects (Visibility != Visible) are not exported to geometry any more.
- Shapes with Opacity set (Opacity < 1.0) are now correctly exported as geometries.
Ab2d.ReaderWmf
- Added reading images from EMR_ALPHABLEND records. Note that usually those images are not rendered correctly because the blend dwRop operations are not supported by WPF, but at least user can get the image and convert it manually to a transparent image that could be used to achieve correct results.
- Added ResolveBitmapOperation that is called in processing EMR_ALPHABLEND record - here the user can change the bitmap to get correct results - for example convert black to transparent.
- Invisible objects (Visibility != Visible) are not exported to geometry any more.
- Shapes with Opacity set (Opacity < 1.0) are now correctly exported as geometries.
Ab2d.ZoomPanel
- Fixed using ZoomPanel under some circumstances when viewbox limits is set.
Ab3d.Reader3ds
- Small fix for a problem that can occure when one object has multiple materials assigned.
- Improved reading broken files - no exception is thrown when the animation data for camera is broken.
You could say that this is not much for quite a long time since last update. And you would be right.
The reason for that is that I am preparing a new major release of Ab3d.PowerToys which will be hopefully ready until beginning of the next week. It will have much much more to show.
And that is not all. With the release of the new version of Ab3d.PowerToys I will also announce a brand new project that I have been working on for almost a year. I am very excited about that project and I am sure you will also like it.
