6       coin310 - New Features in Coin v3.1.0 This is a brief summary of the
7       new features in Coin v3.1.0:
8
9       • Default transparency type for SoGLRenderAction changed from
10         SCREEN_DOOR to BLEND.
11
12       • SoBase will not keep a list of unnamed / empty named nodes any more.
13         This is both an optimization and improves conformance to SGI / TGS
14         Inventor.
15
16       • SbTesselator does better when handed certain polygons, due to
17         improved precision in internal calculations.
18
19       • Resource usage pressure significantly lower for common case scene
20         graphs with regard to mutex allocations. A not entirely uncommon
21         problem on MS Windows systems for huge scene graphs was that the run-
22         time system ran out of available mutexes -- this is now very unlikely
23         to happen.
24
25       • Builds with G++ and MSVC will have C++ exception support enabled by
26         default.
27
28       • SoSceneManager render callback can be set to NULL to disable it.
29
30       • Non-power-of-two textures are automatically supported if the OpenGL
31         driver has that feature.
32
33       • No other intentional differences in semantics, other than for any
34         bugs fixed.
