  • 256:
    Add "dimensions" property in surface configuration to let UI elements scale
    to real-world sizes (in meters). Currently used for the Launcher only.
  • 255:
    Support multi-channel Deflect streams. Each channel is rendered on a separate
    surface if the installation has multiple surfaces.
  • 254:
    Display the original title / file path of contents that fail to be restored

  • 243:
    The Launcher has an improved file browser:
    • case-insensitive sorting.
    • list view: sorting by name, size or modification date.
    • scroll bar for faster navigation.
    • tap-and-hold on a folder to open all the files in it.
  • 241:
    New option to display the file paths in the window title bars.
    Web interface:
    • New "contents" dialog to help finding the location of open files.
    • Small bugfixes.
  • 239:
    The behavior of the 1:1 button changed for contents that would exceed
    the surface dimensions in 1:1 size. Previously such windows were hard
    to minimize / close again. Being in fullscreen (with the desired 1:1 size)
    gives an easy way to exit and restore the window to a minimized size.
  • 238:
    The location for temporary contents uploaded through the web interface is
    configurable. This is particularly useful in setups with multiple machines,
    where temporary files must be stored on a shared file system instead of /tmp
    on the master server for render clients to be able to access them.
  • 237:
    Support for multiple rendering surfaces, each with its own background and set
    of contents. This enables Tide to drive complex visualization installations
    composed of separate wall and floor projection systems, for example.
  • 236:
    A new .json configuration file format replaces the old .xml configurations.
    Those are now deprecated and support for xml will be removed in the future
    Tide 1.6 release. Use the provided tideConverter command line tool to easily
    convert existing xml configurations to json format.
  • 232:
    Tide was upgraded to C++14 and requires a compatible compiler
    (GCC 5, Clang 3.4).
  • 229:
    Different models of Planar TV can be controlled.
  • 226:
    New pyramidify tool to simplify the creation of multiple TIFF image pyramids.
  • 224:
    Number of touch points required to power on the screens is configurable.
  • 220:
    Power control feature available in setups with mutliple controllers.
  • 214:
    Rockets replaces ZeroEQ dependency for the REST interface.
  • 212:
    Removed legacy Webkit webbrowser (Qt < 5.6), require boost 1.56 or later.
  • 211:
    Qt's TuioTouch plugin replaces BlueBrain's TUIO subproject. Note: when not in
    headless mode, the touch points can only be delivered when the main window's
    Qml item has active focus.
