Release 2019 Jun 06: version 2019.0.16
- new: Percentage Tile usage display (island tile ownership is determined using island's bounding box center)
- new: Stack Similar islands (and Island Group Stack Similars) now takes the island selection as working set. The first island selected is now the reference island and destination position. The old behavior remains if only one island is selected, in that case the working set is the visible island set.
- new: New island hiding system: As both viewport can now display or not depending on their flatness state, all feature have been updated to be able to work on only a subset of the island set. Also, the island set will be determined using the mouse position, i.e: If the mouse pointer is inside the 3d viewport, and if the 3D viewport display not flats island only, then only the 3d islands will be processed by a feature.
- new: BRIDGE DEVS: Added variable "Vars.File.DefaultSaveDescriptor", so that bridge scripts can set a default file descriptor that will be set when a saving dialog will be open. Leave that string empty to let the descriptor be determined using the current file extension: To set the string to FBX ascii for instance, use this command: ZomSet({Path="Vars.File.SaveDescriptor", Value="FBX ascii (*.fbx)"})
