NAME

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