is then available to the plugin) -- for Koen

- replaced old 2nd order views with new adaptive stuff (still missing
  some function spaces for quads/hexas)

- fix bb computation to avoid model jumping around when adding points in z=0 plane
- pass interpol matrices as ref

  did in high
* added mesh generation error log summary
* removed Parallel subdir (this is now handled by the message class)
* removed Box subdir and consolidated batch processing in a single
  routine
* made List_T into a class
* reduced dependencies in Pview*.h so we can eventually add the post-pro
  interface to the public API

untabify

- temp fix I/O to allow skipping $xx fields (this will be common
  with new post-pro)
- prune MElement (move mesh-only stuff in mesh algos)

- don't use vertex arrays for quads anymore (they are wrong for non-plane
quad faces): just use triangles everywhere

- removed _links in PView

- various small cleanups

- fix crash in Plugin(MakeSimplex)
- fix main bbox computation when one view has an empty bbox

upgraded all plugins to work with the new post-pro.

This is done "cheaply" for now, by only using old-style list-based datasets.
Taking advantage of the abstraction (so that we can use the plugins on all
datasets) will require more work. The hooks for transparent data translation
are in place, but the actual translation has not been implemented yet.

- new alt+r shortcut to switch range modes

new gui for plugins (much better IMHO!)

- new button under the graphic window to temporarily disable mouse
  selection (speeds-up redrawing of very large models + permits to
  rotate/zoom-in a model in selection mode even when the whole screen
  is full of selectable entities--e.g. a surface mesh)

- new "lasso" selection mode (to select entities using the same kind
  of lasso as the lasso zoom: just Ctrl+click, then drag the mouse in
  selection mode; the shortcuts are the same as for the lasso zoom)

- it is now possible to unselect entities using the middle mouse button
  (only for the creation of physicals at the moment; not sure if it's
  useful in the other cases)

- new button in visibility browser to invert the current selection
  (very useful e.g. when multiple physical entities are associated
  with a given elementary entity, in order to "peel" away the model
  when adding new physicals; cf. philou)

- changed meaning of Escape shortcut (cancel lasso or toggle mouse
  selection) + restore standard fltk Escape handling for all dialog
  windows

- updated copyright string

- new mesh label mode (coordinates); all label types are now also
  available for mesh vertices

- added option in 'Print Option' dialog to disable printing of help
  strings

- added a comment string with the date when creating a new file

- new snapping grid for adding points in the GUI

decompose hexa so that the edges match on each pair of opposite faces

- renamed "Duplicate View" into "Alias View" (suggested by Philippe;
  less confusing since "Duplicate" implies that we actually copy the
  data, which is not what we are doing)

- added general "on the fly" tranformation matrix option. This allows
  for very efficient visualization of aliased datasets with
  non-destructive rotations, symmetries, etc.

Generalized the Levelset routines so that we can compute isovolumes with
all levelset-based plugins. This allows to extract either side of a
levelset (i.e., a half space with CutPlane, the interior/exterior of
a sphere with CutSphere, or the isovolume inside an isosurface with
CutMap).

copyright update

Small aesthetic changes:

- Only 'title-capitalize' window titles and menus; the rest should be
  capitalized like normal english sentences

- The window title should be exactly the same as the menu item
  (without the ellipsis character if there is one)

This patch fixes an old design flaw in the post-processing module,
namely that we used a list of Post_View objects instead of a list of
pointers to Post_View objects in CTX.post.list.

This had many annoying consequences, in particular the fact that we
needed to be extra careful every time the list was reallocated (as
pointers to the list elements would become invalid).

I tried very hard to change the code everywhere it should be changed,
but I might have missed something. Please let me know if you see
anything suspicious (like a crash when you duplicate/remove/combine/...
post-processing views).

- Triangle now supports our background meshes

- fixed memory leak in Optimize_Netgen (forgot to free the volume
  vertices) + added missing 2nd order reset

- fixed a couple of typos in the docs

reset the input lists (do not delete them)

secured most of the list_pointer accesses

generalized Plugin(Evaluate) to work on any (even non-scalar) views

Added automatic documentation generation for plugins

Update copyright notice

Fixed bug in DecomposeInSimplex (need to set deleted non-simplex lists
to NULL)

- new DecomposeInSimplex plugin
- new "Combine Views" command in the parser
- cleaned up View::tranform and View::smooth (+small bug fix for SLs)
- better check for transparency sorting
- make depend
- new View.AlphaChannel option to change the transparency
  globally for a given view (instead of having to change the colormap
  by hand every time)

With all the above, we can now generate very nice (and correct)
transparent iso-surfaces:

Merge "../tutorial/view3.pos";

minIso = 0;
maxIso = 2;
nbIso = 7;

Plugin(CutMap).iView = 0;

For i In {1:nbIso}
  Plugin(CutMap).A = (maxIso-minIso)/nbIso * i;
  Plugin(CutMap).Run;
EndFor

Delete View[0];
Combine Views;

For i In {1:nbIso}
  Delete View[0];
EndFor

Plugin(DecomposeInSimplex).iView = 0;
Plugin(DecomposeInSimplex).Run;

View[0].AlphaChannel = 0.6;

Say if the plugin is executed in-place or if it creates new views

Generalization of the levelset plugin, take II.

One can now compute cuts/maps of abritrary views (any dimension, any kind of
element, any kind of field) + one can plot any other view on the resulting
cut/map.

Big Levelset rewrite (+ cleanup of all other plugins).

Not finished yet, but I need to commit this now so that I can use it
with the boss tomorrow at work.

This version should compile and have all the old features working,
plus some extras (levelsets of scalar/vector/tensor 1D, 2D and
3D simplectic views).

JF: 'Plugin(XX).Save' is now deprecated. Use 'Save View[XX] "filename"'
instead.

Reworked the help strings for all the plugins. Easier to understand,
now, Sean? :-)
