Vapor 3.3.0

147 bug fixes, enhancements, and issues have been addressed since Vapor 3.2.

New Features

• Introduced new flow rendering algorithms, including pathlines and streamlines rendered in 3D, as well as the option for density colormapping
• The Flow renderer can now sample any set of data values along a pathline or streamline, and write those samples to a text file
• Included a prototype Volume Renderer using Intel's Ospray engine, allowing for 3D rendering of unstructured models like MPAS
• Improved Vapor's GUI components and architecture for more consistent behavior and improved usability
• Vapor's sliders no longer have pre-set limits, and can now have their range of values adjusted through a menu opened with a right-mouse click
• Multiple performance optimizations to Vapor's internal data management system, and the Flow and Image renderers
• New colormaps, taken from MatPlotLib's cmocean package
• Updates to Vapor's third-party libraries
