*Functional changes*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Windows Vista support ended.** Windows 7 is now the minimum supported OS.

**SketchUp API.** The SketchUp API libraries have been upgraded to version 2018. This version of SketchUp does not support 32-bit Windows, which means x86 Windows support in HOOPS Visualize is no longer available for this component. The base_skp and hio_skp projects have been stripped of any 32-bit logic and the corresponding binaries are no longer included with HOOPS Visualize.

**Ambient Occlusion Sharpness Setting.** A new setting has been added for adjusting the sharpness for ambient occlusion. Please see the API Reference for ``Set_Driver_Options_ambient_occlusion`` for more information.

**UWP library changes.** The monolithic HOOPS UWP library has been split into multiple libraries in order to allieviate size and dependency burdens. The package now provides hoops_3dgs_uwp, hoops_mvo_uwp, hoops_base_stream_uwp (static), and hoops_stream_uwp for this purpose.

*Enhancements*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**New NVIDIA Profile Creator sample.** A new sample, nvidia_profile_creator, is now available, which demonstrates how to programmatically select a GPU for NVIDIA-based systems.

**Using Unicode Characters in 2D PDF.** Exporting non-ASCII characters to 2D PDF is now supported. However, non-ASCII characters are exported as shells. The resulting "text" is not selectable and can't be copy-pasted, but otherwise appears normally.

**Images as marker glyphs.** Images may now be used as :doc:`glyphs </prog_guide/3dgs/02_3_geometry_markers>`.

**Geometry references.** Geometry references are now supported in HMF files.

**Cutting plane attributes.** HSF files now support cutting plane visualization attributes.

**Segment optimization.** A new option, "segment only", has been added to HC_Optimize_Segment_Tree. When active, this option will restrict segment optimization to the current segment only, and ignore child segments.
