20:28.27 CIA-62 BRL-CAD: 03bhinesley * r45383 10/brlcad/trunk/src/tclscripts/mged/ (man.tcl openw.tcl): Make the paramater for mged's man command optional. Fix the menu item: don't try to open "Introduction". With the new ManBrowser, it is no longer recognized as a valid argument, but is instead loaded by default.
20:29.47 bhinesley not sure how I didn't catch that ^^
20:30.20 bhinesley the manual page browser works alright, but the menu item was broken
20:30.46 bhinesley should there be a patch or anything for the release?
20:31.05 bhinesley command line worked okay

21:29.36 CIA-62 BRL-CAD: 03bob1961 * r45384 10/brlcad/trunk/src/tclscripts/archer/ArcherCore.tcl: Fixed the "Affected Tree/List Nodes" behavior.
21:34.46 brlcad kunigami: response to that from earlier...
21:34.46 brlcad kunigami: rt has a -H hypersample option already
21:34.46 brlcad that used in conjunction with -s oversizing then downsampling are a common best-practice for producing smoothly anti-aliased images
21:34.49 brlcad on that same note, there is a -j jitter flag that will modify the starting ray hit point in various ways depending on the jitter value
21:35.18 kunigami great! thank you
21:35.30 brlcad man rt has more details
21:35.46 brlcad bhinesley: releases are past history, so generally too late to make it there
21:36.48 brlcad the release announcement hadn't been posted yet so technically source tarballs could be reposed and the release retagged, but that's a lot of work (and starseeker's on vacation, so he won't do it) especially for a help menu option with a workaround
21:37.06 brlcad just leave it be, note the menu fix as a NEWS line
21:39.27 brlcad kunigami: you may also be interested in -i incremental mode, akin to jpeg incremental mode
21:39.34 bhinesley alright
21:39.50 brlcad as well as non-buffered output mode
21:48.31 CIA-62 BRL-CAD: 03bhinesley * r45385 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libged/alter.c: note fix of Manual page item in help menu
21:48.39 bhinesley dang it
