Enhancements
Native support for Apple Silicon. Native support for Apple Silicon is being introduced in this release. Binary packages for Apple platforms now contain universal binaries that run natively on both Apple Silicon (ARM) and Intel-based (x64) Mac computers. Minimum requirements for development on macOS raised to 10.14 and XCode 12. Refer to this link for more information on porting your macOS application to Apple Silicon: Apple Developer Documentation.
New hardware-accelerated text option. Hardware accelerated rendering of transformable text is now available for a wide variety of use cases, improving performance when significant amount of text is present in scenes. Accelerated rendering is currently supported on text attribute shape changes (not position), text with backgrounds, and text using driver fonts. Using this feature is optional, off by default, and can be enabled using HC_Set_Rendering_Options(“text hardware acceleration = on”). The text must be transformable and segment display lists must be enabled for this option to take effect. Note currently there is not support for greeking, under/overlined text, strikethrough, per-character attributes and visible text leader lines.
