LuciadFusion Release notes

Windows Authentication when using a MSSQL database account is now supported. There is also a detailed explanation on how to enable support for Windows Authentication when using a MSSQL database account.

• on-path or in-path labels are used
• domain objects have multiple labels

Fixed an issue with TLcdEditableMS2525bObject and TLcdEditableAPP6AObject where it was possible to paint the movement direction arrow of an icon symbol that should not have a movement direction arrow.

Additionally the movement direction and speed modifiers configuration has been changed for a number of symbols hierarchies to make them more consistent with the other hierarchies.

The ILcdMS2525bCoded.sMovementDirection/ILcdAPP6ACoded.sMovementDirection modifier was added to the following symbol hierarchies:

• MIL-STD-2525D
  • 01 - Air
  • 02 - Air Missile
  • 05 - Space
  • 06 - Space Missile
  • 30 - Sea Surface
  • 35 - Sea Subsurface
• APP-6C
  • 01 - Air
  • 02 - Air Missile
  • 05 - Space
  • 06 - Space Missile
  • 30 - Sea Surface
  • 35 - Sea Subsurface

The ILcdMS2525bCoded.sSpeedLabel/ILcdAPP6ACoded.sSpeedLabel modifier was added to the following symbol hierarchies:

• MIL-STD-2525D
  • 35 - Sea Subsurface
• APP-6C
  • 01 - Air
  • 02 - Air Missile
  • 05 - Space
  • 06 - Space Missile
  • 30 - Sea Surface
  • 35 - Sea Subsurface

The ILcdMS2525bCoded.sMovementDirection/ILcdAPP6ACoded.sMovementDirection modifier was removed from the following symbol hierarchies:

• MIL-STD-2525D
  • 20 - Land Installations
• APP-6C
  • 20 - Land Installations
• APP-6D
  • 25 - Control Measure

The ILcdMS2525bCoded.sSpeedLabel/ILcdAPP6ACoded.sSpeedLabel modifier was removed from the following symbol hierarchies:

• MIL-STD-2525D
  • 20 - Land Installations
• APP-6C
  • 20 - Land Installations
• APP-6D
  • 25 - Control Measure

The TLcdRoundedPolyline and TLcdRoundedPolygon shapes have been added. These shapes allow you to create a rounded curve based on a set of control points. You can use these shapes to create rounded versions of ILcdPolyline and ILcdPolygon shapes. They can be visualized, created, and edited in ILcdGXYView and ILspView implementations.

The utility class TLcdShapeUtil was added to the API. This class contains utility method to created rounded lines.

• TLcdShapeUtil.round(ILcdModelReference, ILcdPolyline, double): Use this method to created a TLcdRoundedPolyline.
• TLcdShapeUtil.round(ILcdModelReference, ILcdPolygon, double): Use this method to created a TLcdRoundedPolygon.

Example usage of these shapes can be found in the complex strokes Lightspeed sample. This sample has been adjusted so rounded lines are used in the Cartography layer. The lines are rounded using a custom ALspStyleTargetProvider which provides rounded lines for every ILcdPolyline or ILcdPolygon in the model. This ALspStyleTargetProvider is located in samples.lightspeed.style.strokedline.LayerFactory.RoundedLineStyleTargetProvider.

When you convert Binz data to OGC 3D Tiles in LuciadLightspeed (decoder.binz.bat sample) or LuciadFusion (using an OGC3DTILES service), the conversion process (using TLcdBinzModelDecoder followed by TLcdOGC3DTilesModelEncoder) now also calculates physically based rendering (PBR) material properties from the material information which is always present in the Binz data.

The PBR properties are automatically added to the resulting OGC 3D Tiles data set during the conversion. No action is required on your part. If you have previously converted Binz data, however, you must process it again to have the PBR material properties calculated.

Client applications, such as LuciadRIA, can use these properties to generate more realistic images of an OGC 3D Tiles data set. It can result in highlights and reflections on the rendered objects.

Using the PBR material properties in LuciadRIA is not activated by default: you have to use the pbrSettings of the meshStyle on the TileSet3DLayer.

Refer to the Styling mesh data article in the LuciadRIA documentation for more information on how to use this feature.

A new S-52 radar category styling property has been added to set whether objects should be displayed that are meant to appear over or under a radar picture: see setRadarCategory(ELcdS52RadarCategory) and getRadarCategory() in TLcdS52DisplaySettings.

• an ECDIS layer for which the S-52 radar category setting is set to ELcdS52RadarCategory#UNDER,
• the radar layer,
• an ECDIS layer for which the S-52 radar category setting is set to ELcdS52RadarCategory#OVER.
