Update (2017.10.26)
GeeXLab 0.17.3.0 fixes a crash at the shutdown (caused by the LeapMotion plugin on Windows) and adds a new ImGui widget: gh_imgui.color_edit_rgba().

1 – Release Highlights

GeeXLab 0.17.2.0 is available for all supported platforms: Windows (32/64-bit), Linux (64-bit), macOS and Raspberry Pi. For Raspberry Pi, there are 3 versions: one for OpenGL 2.1, a second one for OpenGL ES 2.0 and the last one for OpenGL ES 2.0 on Raspbian Stretch (because OpenGL ES dynamic libraries have been renamed on Stretch, see here).

 

1.1 – Better ImGui Support

The branch 0.17 of GeeXLab brings ImGui support and this new version improves this support and fixes minor bugs. It’s now possible to know if a window is hovered (really useful) or to handle the close button. New widgets have been added like vertical sliders or image in a window. Currently the new gh_imgui.image() function works only in OpenGL.

1.2 – New Mesh: the Gear

I added a new cool built-in mesh: the gear. You can create a mesh gear using the following function: gh_mesh.create_gear():

inner_radius = 1.0
outer_radius = 4.0
tooth_depth = 1.0
num_teeth = 10
width = 1.0
mesh_gear = gh_mesh.create_gear(inner_radius, outer_radius, tooth_depth, num_teeth, width)
