Originally, most of the sources used constructor parameters to set the
various options of the source. Although convenient, it was difficult to
keep track of what each parameter meant. To make the code more clear,
source parameters are now set with accessor functions (e.g.
`SetPointDimensions`). Although this makes code more verbose, it helps
prevent mistakes and makes the changes more resilient to future changes.
The `Tangle` source would create a point field generically named
`nodevar`. This name was not indicitive of the data or its source. Thus,
the output point field has been renamed `tangle`.
The `Tangle` source was also creating a cell field (named `cellvar`).
This field was really just a mirror of the cell indices (counting from 0
on up). This field has been removed from the input. If you want such a
field, you can now use the `GenerateIds` filter to add it to any data
set.
The new and improved vtkm::cont::ColorTable provides a more feature complete
color table implementation that is modeled after
vtkDiscretizableColorTransferFunction. This class therefore supports different
color spaces ( rgb, lab, hsv, diverging ) and supports execution across all
device adapters.
Sandia National Laboratories recently changed management from the
Sandia Corporation to the National Technology & Engineering Solutions
of Sandia, LLC (NTESS). The copyright statements need to be updated
accordingly.
UnitTestMapperEGL.cxx: MapperGL is no longer a templated class.
UnitTestMapperGLFW.cxx: strmp needs cstring
rendering/CMakeLists.txt: need to append egl_sources to sources.
The word surface is more often used for something like a polygonal mesh,
so this name is quite confusing. Canvas is consistent with a
conventional name in GUI widget APIs.
The rendering classes do not actually manage windows, and window was not
descriptive of what this class was doing. We decided that the class was
mostly analogous to what we call a "view" in ParaView.
