| 3 | * New 2D contour/surface (heightmap) viewer. |
| 4 | * old surface (heightmap) viewer is replaced by contour/surface viewer. |
| 5 | * displays [wiki:rp_xml_ele_field <field>] objects with any type of 2D [wiki:rp_xml_ele_mesh <mesh>]. |
| 6 | * [wiki:rp_xml_ele_mesh <mesh>] object upgraded. |
| 7 | * deprecated [wiki:rp_xml_ele_unirect2d <unirect2d>] and [wiki:rp_xml_ele_cloud <cloud>] objects. |
| 8 | * includes cloud, uniform rectilinear grid (like [wiki:rp_xml_ele_mesh <unirect2d>], nonuniform rectilinear grid, curvilinear grid, triangular, and an unstructured grid that may have heterogeneous cell types. Old style '''<node>'''and '''<element>''' format is deprecated. |
| 9 | * no longer automatically demote 3D data to lower dimensions. If you want an X-Y plot, use a [wiki:rp_xml_ele_curve <curve>] instead of a 1D mesh (a 3D mesh with no range in the Y and Z axes). |

| 11 | * can use legacy VTK file format. |
| 12 | * can use AVS UCD file format. |
| 13 | * New isosurface viewer replaces old VTK version. |
| 14 | * displays [wiki:rp_xml_ele_field <field>] objects with any type of 3D [wiki:rp_xml_ele_mesh <mesh>]. |
| 15 | * fixes zoom/rotation. No gimbal lock. No initial zoom. |
| 16 | * axes |
| 17 | * legend |
| 18 | * Many improvements for volume viewer. |
| 19 | * lighting improvements. |
| 20 | * rotation can no longer can create gimbal lock. |
