* The style setter system has been reworked, style setters are now only setup once for each element type and not for each element instance as before. A static map holds the setters for each element type. Also an animation type is stored which will later allow to animate properties of Canvas elements | * The style setter system has been reworked, style setters are now only setup once for each element type and not for each element instance as before.

Canvas instances can now be placed on scenery objects. This allows for example creating animated signs/monitors. Tom has started to create a Visual Docking Guidance System, which is not fully functionally yet but should be complete enough to be used for a screenshot (eg. azimuth guidance is missing) | ||
* Enable texture repeat for Canvas images | * Enable texture repeat for Canvas images | ||
* The new tracking animation (similar to Blender's locked-track constraint) allows easily animating complex kinematic systems. For examples gear scissors, landing gear doors attached to struts (also with links and joints in between) or also torque struts connecting multiple gears with independent compression while still tracking each other can be realized. Also any type of strut for eg. cargo ramps can be easily animated.see [[Tracking animation]] | |||
