Geomview

The manual was translated to Brazilian Portuguese.
courtesy of Jorge Barros de Abreu. Image-stream
filter bugs were fixed. (transform ...),
(transform-incr ...) interests were fixed. The
computation of averaged per-vertex polygon normals
was improved (taking the relative orientation of
the facets into account). Loading of textured
meshes was broken by a previous change since
1.9.0, so that was fixed. The GEOMROOT environment
variable has been resurrected, as it was needed by
some external modules (e.g. StageTools).

Drawing of spheres was fixed.

This release includes a variety of bugfixes. There is one new feature: picking should now work correctly even in the context of n-dimensional (ND) viewing. The modules have been updated to support this.

This version just fixes some bugs in 1.9.0.
Specifically, version strings were wrong in some
places and textures would not be reloaded after
deleting all cameras (OpenGL MG-backend). Images
in the HTML version of the manual are now
accessible from within the non-installed manual in
the build-tree, and the in-build-tree manual now
resides in BUILDDIR/doc/htdocs. Previously, the
HTML version would only be complete when make
install was done.

This is the first major release since 1.8.1. It includes major bugfixes and enhancements to rendering, to the OOGL command language, and to visualization of higher dimensions. It also improves the user interface.
