Version 0.8.1

Enhancements

Enhancements for viewing planetary simulations:

• Make scalebar go down to units of au or even km for planet sims by @apontzen in #27
• Be more flexible about finding the best width for the initial view by @apontzen in #28

Bug fix

• Remove hide() call in qt canvas class, that prevented the window from appearing on ubuntu (but seemingly not other platforms) by @jchelly in #25

New Contributors

• @jchelly made their first contribution in #25

Full Changelog: v0.8.0...v0.9.0

Version 0.8.0

What's Changed

• New feature: isodensity surface rendering (#23)
• The expanding number of rendering modes now means these can be selected via a command-line flag, --render-mode, or through an improved UI where the render mode is part of the color panel (both in Jupyter and Qt). Older flags like --rgb, --hdr, --bivariate are removed in favour of this unified approach.

Version 0.6.2

Bug fix

Full Changelog: v0.6.1...v0.6.2

Version 0.6.1

What's Changed

Performance improvements (#20)

Version 0.6.0

What's Changed

• Improve user experience in jupyter (#19)

Full Changelog: v0.5.0...v0.6.0

Version 0.5.0

Improvements

• Now uses a basic grid structure to accelerate plotting large simulations when a large fraction of the particles are out of the viewport
• Splits large simulations across multiple buffers to avoid running into maximum buffer size issues

Bug fixes

• Magnitude ranges in rgb mode now accurately reported

Full Changelog: v0.4.0...v0.5.0

v0.4.0

What's Changed

• Now offers the option to render star particles in UVI bands to a full-colour image (e.g. pass -p star --rgb on the command line), optionally as hdr (add --hdr) #13 #14
• Improvements to how rendering takes place over multiple frames if the scene cannot be fully rendered in real-time #15
• You can now double-click on an area of interest and the centre (including z direction) will move appropriately #16

Full Changelog: v0.3.6...v0.4.0

v0.3.6

This release does not change any code, it only fixes an issue with pyproject.toml where the
pinning of the wgpu version was not working. (This is important because wgpu regularly
makes breaking changes.)

v0.3.5

What's Changed

Fixes a bug where on some systems the maximum buffer size was too small due to changes in wgpu (#12)
