ARKit support. ARKit, Apple’s augmented reality platform for iOS, is now supported.
Initialization function. A new static function, HPS::World::IsInitialized(), is now available. The function is used to query whether the HOOPS Visualize system has been initialized.
Text metrics. A new set of functions related to text metrics has been added, which can be used to determine the overall size of text, including ascenders and descenders. See HPS::KeyPath::ComputeTextMetrics and HPS::TextMetrics::Options for details.
