1.12.1 (2016-04-20)

• Updated the plugin_description.xml to reflect the new default plugin library name, see: #1004
• Contributors: William Woodall

1.12.0 (2016-04-11)

• Qt5 is now the default build option, but Qt4 support is still available (for C++ only).
• Fixed support for PyQt5, but disabled PySide2 until we get it working.
• The default plugin's library was changed to rviz_default_plugin.
• Changed to use CMake's file(GENERATE ...) macro when exporting the default plugin's library name.
• Changed costmap lethal color to be different from illegal values.
• Cleaned-up and generalized the WrenchVisual display: * renamed WrenchStampedVisual to WrenchVisual * cleanup: removed deprecated API
• Updated the marker display and tf plugins to update the map of enabled namespaces and frames whenever those frames are enabled/disabled using the check boxes. Also updated the plugins so that the map of enabled namespaces and frames does not get erased whenever the plugin is reset. (#988) This allows the currently selected namespaces/frames to remain selected after the Reset button is pressed.

1.11.14 (2016-04-03)

• Added the rviz_QT_VERSION cmake variable that exports the Qt version used by rviz.
• Changed the way rviz_DEFAULT_PLUGIN_LIBRARIES is set so it works with catkin_make too.
• Contributors: William Woodall

1.11.13 (2016-03-23)

• Changed the way the rviz_DEFAULT_PLUGIN_LIBRARIES are generated to support cmake < 2.8.12. See pull request: #981
• Contributors: William Woodall

1.11.12 (2016-03-22)

• Relaxed the required CMake version to 2.8.11.2 in order to support Ubuntu Saucy.
• Contributors: William Woodall

1.11.11 (2016-03-22)

• Added Qt version to rosout and help->about.
• Added optional support for Qt5 with continued support for Qt4.
• Fixed a C++11 warning about literals needing a space after them.
• Added a "duplicate" button for duplicating displays.
• Fixed remove display so that it selects another display after removing one (if one is available).
• Fix for #959: jumping marker in MOVE_3D mode See pull request: #961
• Added a raw mode for map vizualization. See pull request: #972
• Added an option in many of the topic based Displays to prefer UDP/unreliable transport. See pull request: #976
• Fixed the marker display to allow namespaces to be enabled/disabled based on the loaded config. Also enabled state is stored for each namespace in a map, which is used to lookup the state whenever a namespace is added to the display. See pull request: #962
• Fixed crash in Display::deleteStatus() when no statuses where created beforehand. See pull request: #960
• Read-only properties are now no longer editable. See pull request: #958
• The binary STL loading logic has been relaxed to support files that contain more data than expected. A warning is printed instead of failing with an error now. See pull request: #951
• Fixed an issue where tf configurations were not saved and reloaded from the rviz config file. See pull request: #946
• Anti-Aliasing (AA) is now enabled by default, but it can be disabled with --disable-anti-aliasing. See pull request: #931 See pull request: #950
• The default plugin shared library is no longer exported via rviz_LIBRARIES, but in stead is now in a cmake variable called rviz_DEFAULT_PLUGIN_LIBRARIES. See pull request: #948 See pull request: #979
• Fixed a bug in billboard line generation where a zero point line caused a crash. See pull request: #942
• Downsampled maps will now result in a Warning status, previously it was OK. See pull request: #934
• The map display will no longer try to transform a map until one has been received. See pull request: #932
• Enable antialiasing

1.11.10 (2015-10-13)

• Fixed Qt assertions triggered in debug build of Qt.
• build: Use PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE Instead of using a hard-coded pkg-config to make cross-compiling possible where the pkg-config binary is host-prefixed (e.g. armv7-unknown-linux-pkg-config when cross-compiling for armv7)
• Fix #911 #616 : TF Segfaults on reset/update Do not needlessly delete tree_property_ elements, update them instead. Most likely fixes #808 too.
• python_bindings: sip: Use CATKIN_PACKAGE_LIB_DESTINATION instead of hardcoded lib. Fixes build with libdir != lib. https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=561480
• Contributors: Alexis Ballier, Arnaud TANGUY, Dave Hershberger, Marvin Schmidt, William Woodall

1.11.9 (2015-09-21)

• Updated warning message to indicate triangle count is a 32bit integer, and not 16bit.
• Fixed the error checking of large STL files.
• Smoothed updates for map display plugin. Map displays previously only updated when receiving a message. This means that if your fixed frame was base_link, the costmaps would not move appropriately around the robot unless a message was received in order to update the transform that should be applied to the scene. For global costmaps, this is a slow update and for static maps, this never happened. This fixes that by hooking into rviz' periodic call to continuously update the transform to be applied to the scene.
• Displays are not disabled if associated Panel becomes invisible. Otherwise the state between Panel & Display becomes inconsistent. Fixed symptom: When loading a configuration that contains a disabled CameraDisplay, during the configuration of the panel(the camera render widget), the panel is set visible for a very short period of time. Because of the missing logic, the CameraDisplay is enabled together with the panel, but the Display remains enabled after the Panel is set invisible. One ends up with an enabled (and subscribed) CameraDisplay without the corresponding RenderWidget, even so the configuration specified that the Display is not enabled.
• Removed shortkeys from shortkey_to_tool_map_ this should fix #880
• Contributors: Daniel Stonier, Henning Deeken, Jonathan Meyer, Michael Görner, William Woodall

1.11.8 (2015-08-05)

• Force and Torque can now be scaled separately in the Wrench display: #862
• Fixed a bug in the Wrench display: #883
• Improved error checking when loading ascii stl files.
• Suppressing some new CMake warnings by setting cmake policies.
• Re-enable most all of the tests.
• Added option to start rviz with the ROS logger level set to Debug
• Fixed setting of status bar from python by checking if the original status bar is being used or not.
• Added a third person follower view controller.
• Fix decaying of tf2 static transforms in the TF display.
• Correctly display color and alpha in pointclouds.
• Restored functionality to force opacity and color for meshes that have null rgba values.
• Use the find_package'ed python version detected by catkin. Otherwise it might happen that catkin (and the rest of the workspace) uses 2.x and rviz detects & tries to use 3.x. This can produce some nasty collisions. See rospack, roslz4, qt_gui_cpp and others for similar invokation.
• Fix processing empty of pointclouds. Otherwise, given a stream of clouds with some of them empty, the last non-empty message will still be displayed until a the next non-empty cloud comes in.
• Check if position and orientation of links of robots contain NaNs when updating pose of robot links.
• Fixed DELETEALL marker action, by not iterating on the marker list.

1.11.7 (2015-03-02)

• Fixed a bug where the timestamp was not set for the /initialpose message published by the 2D Pose Estimate tool.
• Added a method/Qt Signal for refreshing tools called refreshTool(). Calling this method updates the name and icon of a tool in the toolbar.
• Fixed a bug with setCurrentTool. This fixes a rare gui bug: if an incoming tool directly calls another tool during it's activate() function the tool gets changed accordingly but the toolbar gui becomes inconsistent because Tool* tool pointer is outdated in this case. using Tool* current_tool fixes this.
• Fixed initialization of Tool's shortcut_key_ and fixed a bug in toKeys(). * Initialized the shortcut_key_ param with '/0' to be able to check whether a tool has a shortkey assigned or not. * Made the tool manager check if a tool has a shortkey before converting the char to a key code. * Fixed the toKeys() method by removing the assertions, making at a boolean returning function and allowing a single key only, as this is what is to be expected from the shortcut_key_ param this should fix #851

1.11.6 (2015-02-13)

• Fixed a mesh memory leak in ogre_helpers/mesh_shape.h/.cpp This fixes a memory leak which is caused due to no meshes ever being destroyed without removing the mesh from the mesh manager. This gets really bad when drawing meshes with 50K triangles at 10Hz, resulting in a leak rate @ ~60MB/sec.
• Add a simple 'About' dialog to the help menu.
• Contributors: Jonathan Bohren, William Woodall, gavanderhoorn

1.11.5 (2015-02-11)

• Tools (on the toolbar) can now indicate if they need access to keypresses by setting the access_all_keys_ attribute. The handling of keypresses in tools has also been refactored. See: pull request #838
• Path display now has an additional display style called "Billboards" which allows to set the line width of the paths. It also now has an offset property to shift the path with regard to the fixed frame origin. See: pull request #842
• Meshes now have their ambient values scaled by 0.5 which gives a softer look, which is more in line with Gazebo's look and feel. See: pull request #841
• The default ambient color for meshes is now 0,0,0, down from 0.5,0.5,0.5. See: pull request #837
• Triangle-list markers are now shaded like other objects. See: pull request #833
• Color is now applied to all visuals of the line class, closes #820. See: pull request #827
• The find_package logic for assimp/yamlcpp has been moved to before add_library for librviz to fix building on OS X. See: pull request #825
• Fixed moc generation errors with boost >= 1.57. See: pull request #826
• Contributors: Daniel Stonier, Dave Hershberger, Henning Deeken, Michael Ferguson, Timm Linder, William Woodall, v4hn

1.11.4 (2014-10-30)

• Fixed stereo support for custom projection matrices
• Fixed read off end of array in triangle_list_marker
• Add dependency on opengl rviz calls find_package(OpenGL), so it should have a direct dependency on OpenGL. This matters on ARM, where the other packages that rviz depends on use OpenGL.ES, and don't provide a transitive dependency on OpenGL.
• Update map via QT signal instead of in ros thread Resolved issues when running RViz in rqt where the incomingMap callback is not issued from RViz's main QThread causing a crash in Ogre. Map updates are now handled by emitting a signal to update the map from the callback thread.
• fix rainbow color, see #813
• Added TF listener as parameter to constructors of VisualizationManager and FrameManager
• Fix add by topic for Marker and MarkerArray
• Fixed map plugin to only show when active
• stereo: restore camera after rendering (Avoids a segfault)
• fix stereo eye separation
• fix ogre includes

1.11.3 (2014-06-26)

• remove explicit dependency on urdfdom urdfdom is provided via urdf and catkin_* CMake variables. The current setup was unbalanced anyways because along with urdfdom, urdfdom_headers should have been being depended on and used. This precipitated from urdfdom's rosdep key changing as it became a system dependency in Indigo.
• Add ability to delete all markers in Marker plugin
• fix hidden cursor bug On some systems loading a pixmap from an svg file can fail. On these machines an empty cursor results, meaning the cursor is invisible inside Rviz. This works around the problem by using an arrow cursor when the desired cursor pixmap canot be loaded.
• Install rviz to the global bin
• Added display for sensor_msgs/RelativeHumidity
• Contributors: Acorn Pooley, Adam Leeper, Chad Rockey, Dave Coleman, William Woodall, hersh, trainman419

1.11.2 (2014-05-13)

• Fix an issue with rendering laser scans: #762
• Fix an issue with using boost::signal instead of boost::signal2 with tf tf recently moved to boost::signal2, so the effort display needed to be updated too I made it so that it would conditionally use boost::signal2 if the tf version is greater than or equal to 1.11.3 I also fixed some compiler warnings in this code closes #700
• Contributors: Vincent Rabaud, William Woodall

1.11.1 (2014-05-01)

• fix fragment reference in point_cloud_box.material Closes #759
• upgrade ogre model meshs with the OgreMeshUpgrader from ogre 1.9
• Changed TF listener to use a dedicated thread.
• Speed up point cloud rendering by caching some computations and using proper loop iterations
• Fixed rendering of mesh resource type markers with respect to texture rendering and color tinting
• Fix segfault on exit for OSX
• Fix memory leak in BillboardLine destructor (material not being destroyed correctly)
• Fix disabling of groups (#709) This was broken with commit 5897285, which reverted the changes in commit c6dacb1, but rather than only removing the change concerning the read-only attribute, commented out the entire check, including the parent_->getDisableChildren() call (which existed prior to commit 5897285).
• Add missing libraries to rviz link step, fixes OS X build.
• fix failing sip bindings when path contains spaces
• EffortDisplay: Added a check to avoid segfaults when receiving a joint state without efforts

1.11.0 (2014-03-04)

• fixing problems with urdfdom_headers 0.3.0
• Contributors: William Woodall

1.10.14 (2014-03-04)

• Fixed a bug in tutorials caused by uninitialized ros::Time here.
• Contributors: Dave Hershberger, William Woodall

1.10.13 (2014-02-26)

• Contributors: Scott K Logan, William Woodall

1.10.12 (2014-02-25)

• Shiboken is now disabled when a version which would segfault is detected (fix #728)
• Eigen is now found using the FindEigen.cmake from the cmake_modules package.
• Added support for rendering rviz in stereo. For more information see this commit: https://github.com/ros-visualization/rviz/commit/9cfaf78e2ae8d34e4481de19568b353964846842
• Added a "Queue Size" option for the Range display type.
• Added Ogre-1.10 compatibility This allows rviz to compile (and work) against Ogre 1.10 (currently the latest version of ogre). It also still works with earlier versions of Ogre (tested with Ogre 1.7.4 as installed via debs on Ubuntu 12.04).
• Now includes ogre without OGRE prefix This is necessary to find Ogre files in the right place with compatibility between Ogre < 1.9 and Ogre >= 1.9. This is also necessary when 2 versions of Ogre are installed on the build machine.
• RVIZ doesn't use __connection_header from incoming messages, but only uses ros::MessageEvent's
• Better feature detection for assimp version The unified headers were introduced in Assimp 2.0.1150, so checking for Assimp 3.0.0 is not quite the best solution. See https://github.com/assimp/assimp/commit/6fa251c2f2e7a142bb861227dce0c26362927fbc

• Fixed in selection_manager which allows interactive markers to work with orthographic cameras views
• Add support for yamlcpp 0.5 with backwards compatibility with yamlcpp 0.3
• Fixed message type for Polygon display. The polygon display type actually subscribes to PolygonStamped.
• Contributors: Austin, Ken Tossell, Max Schwarz, William Woodall

1.10.10 (2013-12-22)

• Fixed a severe memory leak with markers and marker arrays: #704 and #695
• Contributors: David Gossow, Vincent Rabaud

1.10.6 (2013-09-03)

• Added a new method for adding displays, by topic as opposed to by type.
• Added new exception handling for loading mesh files which have no content.

1.10.5 (2013-08-28 03:50)

• Removed run_dep on the media_export package
• All previous history is not curated, see the commit history <https://github.com/ros-visualization/rviz/commits/hydro-devel>.
