Releases: NickKarpowicz/LightwaveExplorer
2024.2
This release adds the following fixes and improvements:
- FDTD mode now supports importing a user-generated multi-material grid (tutorial upcoming).
- New compressed file format (produces self-contained .zip files).
- Saving and loading of files now done entirely through standard system file dialogs.
- File access now supports XDG portals; Flatpak no longer needs nor requests home folder access.
- Improved interaction with clusters/SLURM script generation.
- Made the user interface more compact and organized.
- Support dynamic loading of new crystal database files.
2023.09.01
This release adds the following fixes and improvements:
- Adds a new CPU-based propagation mode on Linux/Windows using C++ std::execution::par instead of OpenMP, which on some computers is nearly twice as fast
- MacOS version now uses Grand Central Dispatch for multithreading, with a slight performance improvement.
- Applies PEMDAS rules to the input arguments of sequence functions. In short: previously an input of 1+2*3 would give 9 because the operators were resolved from left to right, now it has the correct behavior (i.e. 7).
- Multiple small optimizations to propagation kernels with a small (percent-level) performance improvement
- Various bug fixes and stability enhancements (mostly regarding mutex locks).
- A button to collapse the data input panel so that the plots and images fill the whole window
