Make the Sink effect fully 3D.
Correct the z-axis of the center of fragment effects (it was inverted)
Progress with the Earth app.
Make the Fragment effects truly 3D: change their 4D 'region' into a 3D 'center' (a point in 3D) and 3D 'region' (which is now a set of 3 radii defining an ellipsoid around the center)
Also corresponding changes to the applications.
Advances with the Earth app - prepare it to checking if any FRAGMENT or VERTEX effect correctly works on a Sphere mesh.
Redefine the Vertex Region from (x,y,r,unused) to (x,y,z,r). This takes into account the 'Z', which makes it possible to warp only one side of a 3D Mesh like Sphere.
Also corresponding changes in applications.
Improve the world map.
Progress with the 'Earth' app.
Rename the old 'Cubes' app to 'Inflate' - this now combines the testing functionality of former 'Cubes' and 'Inflate' apps.The old 'Inflate' in turn renamed to 'Earth' - here we are going to show an Earth rotating in space.
Make Matrix effects Rotate and Quaternion actually correct when it comes to the Z-axis. Also corresponding adjustments in apps.
Sphere: map the texture a bit better around the seam and the poles.
New texture showing the World (Mercator projection)
Do not let users choose a Mesh with cols or rows equal to 0.
Some fixes for Sphere; still not completely ok though.
Add support for MeshSphere (add ability to display it in the 'Effects3D' and 'Inflate' apps).Still a bit buggy!
- new icon for the GLOW app- rename the BitmapTree app to ObjectTree
Improve the Triblur app to be able to switch objects into 1 of 3 states: no postprocessing, blur, glow.
Minor cleanups.
Make the Effects3D app a bit more user-friendly.
Bugfix: we need to remember all adjacent TABs, not just half of them to the left or right.
Progress with Inflate (building block of postprocessing effects: the proper way of marking a halo around a Mesh)'Inflate' app testing the machanism. MeshFlat appears to be working, now we only need to fill up the per-vertex Inflate vector in the MeshCubes.
Rename MeshObject to MeshBase.
