- Added a new proposal for boundary smoothing in the weight cutout process, differentiating between Split edges and Outline smoothing requirements.
- Introduced a new capability `cutout-boundary-smoothing` to control smoothing strength and default values.
- Updated specifications to define the behavior of boundary-specific smoothing strength and default settings.
- Created tasks to verify the implementation of boundary behavior and asset updates.
- Developed comprehensive tests for depth symmetry and normal scaling to ensure expected behavior and performance.
- Introduced new attributes for normal mapping to facilitate persistent face attributes sharing between depth symmetry and image materials.
- Built a new node group for O Image Depth Symmetry, integrating the new smoothing capabilities and ensuring compatibility with existing workflows.
- Removed obsolete files: sections.py, semantics.json, and sources.py.
- Introduced new modules: branches.py and layout.py for improved calculation block identification and layout planning.
- Implemented a unified layout strategy for geometry nodes, ensuring consistent spacing and organization.
- Added comprehensive documentation for the new layout design and its goals.
- Established a migration plan for transitioning existing assets to the new layout system.
- Updated tests to validate the new arrangement logic and ensure compatibility with existing geometry node structures.
- Introduced `frames.py` to manage field complex calculations and their arrangement within node groups.
- Added functionality to create and remove field frames based on node arrangements.
- Developed `passages.py` to find unobstructed paths for connections around calculation frames.
- Implemented `references.py` to route shared results on peripheral tracks, ensuring efficient distribution of outputs.
- Created `sections.py` to reserve space for field calculations adjacent to geometry consumers.
- Added `sources.py` to position shared calculation sources effectively beside their distribution channels.
- Enhanced outline smoothing with `outline_smoothing.py` to adapt camera depth along original outlines.
- Introduced tests for boundary smoothing in `test_boundary_smoothing.py`, verifying that smoothing reduces stair-step artifacts while preserving boundary integrity.
- Added tests for cutout boundary behavior in `test_cutout_boundary.py`, ensuring proper handling of boundary triangles and normal blending.
- Created `test_temporary_attributes.py` to check the cleanup of temporary attributes across depth modifier branches, ensuring no warnings are raised.
- Implemented point culling functionality in `test_validity.py`, confirming that invalid points are removed without affecting adjacent geometry.
- Developed boundary smoothing logic in `boundary_smoothing.py`, allowing for depth smoothing while maintaining edge integrity.
- Added cutout boundary management in `cutout_boundary.py`, including functions for removing boundary triangles and tapering thickness profiles.
- Implemented validity checks in `validity.py` to ensure proper deletion of invalid vertices and associated wire edges.
- Implemented the "O Image Relief Plane" Geometry Nodes group to create a fixed-base image relief using depth images and various parameters.
- Created the "O Shadeless" shader node group to display color without scene lighting while preserving shadows and reflections.
- Introduced a preview feature for node groups, allowing for interactive visualization of node arrangements in an HTML format.
- Added a template HTML file for rendering node previews with customizable views and controls.
