Gaia Sky 3.6.11 – Release Notes

Gaia Sky 3.6.11 contains a few new API calls, and some bug fixes.

Features

• Add transition_fov() (APIv2) and fovTransition() (APIv1) calls to create smooth transitions in camera field of view angle.
• Add set_label_[in|ex]clude_regexp calls to filter allowed and/or required label formats. If the include regexp is set, only labels that match it are allowed. If the exclude regexp is set, labels that match it are not allowed.
• Add set_mute_label() APIv2 call (setMuteLabel() APIv1) to disable the label of individual objects.
• Add get_fov() API call to APIv2, and getFov() to APIv1 to get the current camera field of view angle.

Bug Fixes

• Disable render stage of notifications interface when notifications are off instead of just preventing the creation of messages; This is so that the empty table background is not seen when notifications are off.
• Add scroll pane to layout of enabled datasets in welcome window. Add ‘disable dataset’ shortcut to each dataset.
• Fix overall visual consistency and usability of enabled datasets in welcome window.
• Keep clouds on the dark side of planets marginally visible instead of making them totally disappear during the night.
