VisIt 1.11.1 Release Notes
Welcome to VisIt's release notes page. Release 1.11.1 is primarily a bug fix release to release 1.11. Look here to see a complete list of bugs fixed in release 1.11.
Bugs fixed in version 1.11.1
- A bug was fixed where VisIt would crash when saving images in screen capture mode.
- A bug was fixed where scalable rendering (the parallel rendering mode) would leave out portions of the data set under a variety of conditions, including zooming in too far or clipping away part of the data set.
- A bug was fixed where a slice that lay between two, flat domain boundaries could lead to a double contribution (one from each boundary). The images from VisIt were basically unaffected, but integrations (Weighted Variable Sums) and 2D area queries were double counting.
- A bug was fixed where index selecting a multi-block mesh when "Use Whole Collection" was set would index select the mesh on a per-block basis, instead of across the entire mesh. It now index selects across the entire mesh in that situation.
- A bug was fixed with the Windows installer so that it correctly set the chosen network configuration files.
- The help files have been made available once again for the windows platform.
- The 'change username' option in the password window on Windows no longer crashes.
- Silex no longer crashes on start up on Windows.
- A bug was fixed with the reading of curves with the Ultra file format reader. Previously, for a multi-curve file, if curve N+1's first point was the same as curve N's last point, then curve N+1's first point was being incorrectly discarded.
- A bug was corrected with the Enzo file format reader, where the expressions for velocity and particle_velocity were defined incorrectly.
- The Nek file format reader can now read meta-data for files larger than 2GB.
- The DDCMD file format reader was enhanced to read ascii and binary format atom files.
- Host profiles for LLNL's alastor system have been added.
- Host profiles for LLNL's hera system have been added.
- The host profiles for LLNL's juno system have been corrected to handle node names with 4 digits.
- The source code was modified so that VisIt would compile with the gcc 4.3.x compilers.
- A bug was fixed with VisIt's configure script where the configuration switch --with-hdf5 would attempt to locate the hdf5 library even if it was not requested or even specifically disabled.
- The file depcomp was added to the binary distributions so that plugins could be built against the binary distributions.
- VisIt's GUI used to crash on exit on some platforms after having opened the Volume plot attributes window.
