| **************************************************************************** |
| * Qt 5.10.0 Changes * |
| **************************************************************************** |
| |
| Qt3DAnimation |
| ------------- |
| |
| - Added a tech preview of the skeletal animation system. Use the |
| QSkeletonMapping type to map animation clip channels onto joints of |
| a skeleton. |
| |
| - Bugfix: |
| * The backend node (`Qt3DAnimation::Animation::Clock`) had an incorrect |
| return type specified (`int` instead of `float`) which was narrowing |
| the actual value during the evaluation of associated animation clips. |
| |
| - General: |
| * Introduce the QClock frontend and backend nodes to control animator |
| playbackspeed. |
| |
| Qt3DCore |
| -------- |
| |
| - General: |
| * Added support for SIMD instructions to accelerate matrix and vector |
| operations within Qt 3D. At present, SSE2 and AVX2 are supported. By |
| default, SSE2 instructions are enabled. To additionally enable the use |
| of AVX2 instructions, configure with the -qt3d-simd avx2 option. |
| Passing -no-sse2 disables SSE2 use in QtCore, QtGui and Qt3D. |
| Configuring with -no-qt3d-simd disables SIMD in Qt 3D only. |
| |
| * Added support for loading skeletons from glTF 2 files. |
| |
| |
| Qt3DRender |
| ---------- |
| |
| - New additions: |
| * Added a framebuffer blit frame graph node |
| |
| * Added a promity filter frame graph node |
| |
| * Added support for sprite sheets |
| |
| * Added QCamera::viewAll() |
| |
| * Introduced shader graphs: dynamically generate fragment shaders |
| from graph based description. |
| |
| * Added Scene2D: embed Qt Quick content into Qt 3D and interact with |
| it. |
| |
| * Added support for rendering skinned meshes via the new QArmature |
| component. Can be animated with the animation aspect and the |
| QSkeletonMapping type. |
| |
| * Added support for loading mesh data from glTF 2 files. |
| |
| - General: |
| * Improved QLayerFilter |
| |
| Qt3DInput |
| --------- |
| - Added support for point and line picking |
| |
| Qt3DExtras |
| ---------- |
| |
| - Added Qt3DExtras::QAbstractCameraController abstract base class to make |
| implementing new camera controllers easier. |
