New Features:
- Support for limited-lifetime in Multi-Element Field (MEF),
- Support for element specific rotation as function its position in Multi-Element Field (MEF),
- Support for dot specific speed and direction in Random-Dot Kinematogram (RDK),
- OpenGL preview and export to movie for Multi-Element stimuli (RDK & MEF) and Dynamic Composing,
- Addition of 'za' output in Custom Stimuli to specify stimulus transparency,
- BETA support for "Mono++" and "Color++" modes provided by CRS Bits++ (please send feedback!),
- Support for onset trigger from composing stimuli in Dynamic Composing (except for fused mode),
- Support for absolute and relative step size in Adjustment procedure,
- Support for multiple step sizes in Adjustment procedure,
- Support for Keypad input devices (Adesso keypad AKP-150, Targus Keypad PAUK10C),
- Support for stereoscopic stimuli (monocular, binocular and dichoptic presentation) in vertically split display setup (free-fusing, mirror-based stereoscope, or dual video input goggles),
- Support for Scaling Factor in Rendering properties (Control Settings Palette),
Feature Improvements:
- Addition of [$<varname>] variable format to specify the latest value set for a random variable (useful for random variables used in different events),
- Support for expression operands in range format (<exp1>:<exp2>),
- Support for expression-based values for minimum and maximum levels in Method of Constant Stimuli, mean and range of initial value for Staircase and Adjustment,
- Support for interleaved adjustments,
- Support for randomly ordered interleaved methods and adjustment procedure,
- Support for multiple values (separated by comma) associated with the same event in Association Composing,
- Faster generation of dynamic grating-like, checkerboard-like and custom stimuli,
- Better error detection when using Wizard,
User interface improvements:
- Change in selection of event subcategory is now prevented by default, but can be forced by pressing simultaneously the Control key,
- Automatic expanding of experiment hierarchy after run-time errors occurs,
Fixed:
- Problem with duplicated columns in results data table,
- Failing Gamma correction,
- NetStation crash at closing time,
- 'Keep As Fixation' option not always working for Shape stimuli,
- Fixation mark overlapping bug in first trial after text stimulus,
- Changes in stimulus duration not being saved,
- Crash occurring with variable-based duration in Visual stimuli,
- Problem with manual entries of Gamma readings not being validated except when using a keypad,
- Problem with duplicate estimates provided by the adjustment method in Root data level (Plotter panel),
- Problem with use of conditional variables in decision for Discrimination and Yes/No procedures,
- Selection problem in Conditions method,
- Problem with results report for interleaved Bayesian and Constant Stimuli methods in Root data level (Plotter panel),
- Run-time error when creating experiment with Wizard,
- Crash with Japanese language,
- Run-time error when no EDID information available for old CRT display,
- Stimulus glitch when specifying log sampling in Bayesian method,
- Problem with non-sticking default properties for Multi-Element Stimuli (RDK and MEF),
- Default input device now properly selected when no other device has been explicitly defined,
- Serial device missing from the trigger pop-up menu in control settings palette,
- Bug with editable data folder in 'Session Information' panel which could lead to data loss for the current session,
- Cosmetic bug in Control Settings for MEF/RDK stimuli,
- Stimuli preview now uses the display settings from experiment event if available (Display preferences otherwise),
- Crash with selection of modulation mode other than contrast,
- Problem with contrast not being used when creating preview of statically composed stimuli,
- Bug with Src and Dst Mode not being disabled except for Custom mode in rendering control settings,
- Bug preventing stimuli editing when using expressions in some formats,
- Error reported when using dependent variable in time-varying expression,
- Apparent computer freeze due to too large generated stimuli (validity of geometry calibration now checked based on FOV range before running the experiment),
- Issues with validation of pending text field entries in Control Settings Palette,
- Graph sampling problems for fitted data in Plotter panel,
