1 – Release Notes

This new version of GeeXLab is available for Windows 64-bit, Linux 64-bit (GLIBC 2.23), Raspberry Pi OS (GLIBC 2.28) and macOS (tested on latest macOS Catalina 10.15.6).

GeeXLab 0.38.0 does not bring new features but rather tries to improve and strengthen the existing ones. For example, new functions to generate random numbers have been added (these functions are based on the C++ random library). The Dear ImGui has been updated with latest ImGui 1.78 and the ImPlot lib has been updated with the latest version 0.5 WIP. Some new functions have been added in the gh_mesh lib to copy and read vertex data between a mesh and a GPU buffer. When working with compute shaders, this kind of functionality is handy. I also added a new function in the Box2D lib to list all actors that are in contact with a particular actor. get the The GPU monitoring plugin has been updated with latest NVAPI 450 and GPUs are now sorted by bus ID. Why? because sometimes, the NVIDIA driver decides to reverse the order of GPUs and the main GPU (the GeForce RTX 2070 in my PC) is listed after the secondary GPU (a GeForce GT 1030). This small change is important for the next updates I’m working on.
