7
8 The primary reason for the 2.4.0 release was the option of finally
9 building Coin from source on MS Windows without having to go through
10 the Cygwin process.
11
12 There had also been various optimization work on rendering traversal
13 code, file i/o and other things.
14
15 For v2.4.1, SoExtSelection LASSO and RECTANGLE select could be aborted
16 by the end-user by hiting the 'END' key. No API-changes was needed for
17 this of course.
18
19 For v2.4.2, we hacked in support for compressed textures through an
20 API/ABI-invisible field in SoTexture2, called
21 'enableCompressedTexture'. This field will remain 'invisible' until
22 Coin v3.0.0 is released, and can only be accessed from .iv-file input
23 or through the SoFieldContainer API.
24
25 For v2.4.6, SbViewVolume::getAlignRotation() was implemented, and
26 SoToVRML2Action got support for SoUnits in relation to SoVRMLTransform
27 nodes.

29 New features for Coin v2.3.0 are here.
