Improve consistency and visual appearance of predefined OCCT materials in various rendering modes, including ray-tracing:
- Increase the specular exponents (shininesses) for metallic surfaces: Brass, Bronze, Copper, Gold, Pewter, Silver, Steel, Chrome, Aluminum.
- Revise specular colors for metals: Copper, Gold, Aluminum, Silver (according to "Real-Time Rendering, 3rd Edition", AK Peters 2008).
- Increase diffuse reflection of metals: Silver, Aluminum, Chrome (to make them brighter in OpenGL mode).
- Extend Material definition by Refraction Index.
Advanced rendering methods based on shaders or ray-tracing can utilize it to produce refraction effects.
In addition:
- Introduce three translucent materials: Water, Glass, and Diamond.
- Add Charcoal for modeling dark diffuse surfaces.
Add new TCL-based sample (materials.tcl) and test case (tests/v3d/materials/bug24855).
Two scripts added:
samples/tcl/drill.tcl: creates model of a twist drill bit
samples/tcl/cutter.tcl: creates simplified model of a milling cutter
Added test cases bugs/modalg_5/bug24758_1 bug24758_2
New sample created for ray tracing in DRAW: samples/tcl/raytrace.tcl, rendering OCCT bottle with glass on a rectangular table, with shadows and reflections (if OpenCL is available). Sample bottle.tcl retains only modeling part.
Introduce new class Font_BRepFont for conversion of font glyph in vector format into BRep representation.
New text2brep Draw Harness command.
bottle.tcl - draw text on the bottle side using new functionality.
ViewerTest - process Delete key in 3D-Viewer to delete selected presentations.
Font_FontMgr::FindFont - return correct font when font alias and not default aspect is requested.
bottle.tcl - use prism instead of pipe
TKViewerTest - add required FreeType dependency
verase - display the list of erase objects
TKViewerTest - add required FreeType dependency for projects generation
Tcl samples moved from src/DrawResources to samples/tcl.
Scripts VisualisationDemo.tcl and ModelingDemo.tcl fixed to work on Windows.
File wing.brep moved from src/DrawResources to data/occ, and DataExchangeDemo.tcl corrected.
OCAFDemo.tcl removed, as it has little sense and referred data files are lost
Added sample Tcl script creating a model defined on the 'Open CASCADE challenge' web page
