Notable fixes

ID

Description

446907

Fixed the issue that caused Kanzi Shapes to render a Composite Shape node incorrectly when you flip any of the child shape nodes on the x or y axis using a negative scale transform.

449181

Fixed the issue that caused Kanzi Shapes to sometimes render the caps of curved stroke at a wrong angle.

447246

Fixed the issue that caused Kanzi Shapes to render the stroke of an Ellipse node incorrectly when you set the Arc Type to Pie and:

  • Sweep Angle to 360 and Stroke Alignment to Center

  • Sweep Angle to 0 and Stroke Alignment to Inside or Outside

451516

Fixed the issue that caused Kanzi Shapes to terminate when you in a 2D shape node set the Foreground Brush or Stroke Brush to < NullBrush >.

451404

Fixed the issue that caused Kanzi Shapes to sometimes terminate when you run it in debug build configuration and use the Composite Shape nodes.

1.0.0-beta2

Feature improvements

  • Improvements to gradients:

    • You can now set the Gradient Stops and Gradient Spread Method properties of a gradient brush or gradient material in the node that uses that brush or material. See Gradients.

    • Introduced the Sweep Gradient Rotation Angle property that you can use to rotate a sweep gradient. See Using sweep gradient.

  • Introduced the Stroke Alignment property that you can use to align a stroke relative to the shape boundary. See Setting the alignment of the stroke.

  • In the Rectangle nodes you can now use:

    • Corner Aspect Ratio property to set the aspect ratio of rounded corners.

    • Corner Smoothness property to set the smoothness of the corners.

    • Top-Left Corner Radius, Top-Right Corner Radius, Bottom-Left Corner Radius, and Bottom-Right Corner Radius properties to set the radius of each corner.

    See Using the Rectangle nodes.

Changes

  • Kanzi Shapes now works with Kanzi 3.9.6.

  • Renamed the Oval nodes to Ellipse. In all property names, replaced “Oval” with “Ellipse”.

    For example:

    • The Oval 2D node is now named Ellipse 2D.

    • The Oval Width property is now named Ellipse Width.

  • In the Rectangle nodes, deprecated the Corner Radius Vector2 property and introduced the Corner Radius float property. See 1.0.0-beta2 migration guide.

437860

Fixed the issue that caused Kanzi Shapes to clip a 2D shape node to node bounds when the Clip Children property is disabled and the node or its ancestor has rotation.

441113

Kanzi Shapes no longer fails to render in an SVG Image node a gradient that is referenced in the SVG file before its definition.

441497

Fixed the issue that caused Kanzi Shapes to render incorrectly a shape node that has the Opacity property set.

449384

Fixed the issue that prevented a Kanzi application from loading the dynamic Kanzi Shapes plugin on SCons-based platforms.
