NASA GISS: G.Projector: Version History

The current version of G.Projector is 1.1.2, released 2008-03-04.

Version 1.1.2: Released 2008-03-04.

Version 1.1.1 (Build 7AW2): Released 2007-10-30.

Bugfix: Reset button in prefs panel did not reset any projection "extra parameter" values.
Bugfix: Equidistant conic in error for case of ϕ₁ = ϕ₂ and both negative valued.
Added Urmayev sinusoidal series of projections (#79).
(Mac) Bugfix: Anti-aliasing of map border and graticule did not work on OS X 10.5 Leopard.
(Mac) Added large icons for OS X 10.5 Leopard cover flow.

Version 1.1 (Build 7A51): Released 2007-10-05.

Java 1.5 is now required.
Added equidistant conic projection (#76).
Added Albers equal-area conic projection (#77).
Added Lambert conformal conic projection (#78).
Preferences can save "extra parameter" settings should a projection have such (e.g., a standard parallel).
Added Reset button to preferences to restore default settings.
Bugfix: AbstractProjection's drawGrid scheme messed up near poles of azimuthal projections.
Rewrote AbstractProjection's drawPath's handling of lines which wrap around borders ±180° from central longitude.
Other refactoring of projection codebase as part of code clean-up and shift to Java 1.5.

Version 1.0.2a (Build 75P6): Released 2007-05-24.

(Mac) Bugfix: If CNO file double-clicked on desktop, tried to open it as image file rather than continent data.
Added Larrivée projection (#74).
Added Baker Dinomic projection (#75).
Modified Mollweide projection to allow use of Bromley variant.
Optimizations and other internal modifications to projection codebase.

Version 1.0.1 (Build 7441): Released 2007-04-04.

Bugfix: Help window content could not be updated once window was created.
Added Putniņš P₂ projection (#66).
Added Putniņš P₆ projection (#67).
Added Putniņš P₆' projection (#68).
Bugfix: Miller Cylindric I projection was missing constant scaling term in y. Also was mis-identified simply as "Miller Cylindric".
Bugfix: Robinson projection did not scale to fit plotting area.
Bugfix: Map window was hard-coded to a size larger than some older monitors.
Added Times Atlas projection (#69).
Added Modified Gall, aka Oxford Atlas, projection (#70).
Added Pavlov projection (#71).
Added Cylindrical Equal-Area projection (#72). Apply φ_ts = 0.° to get Lambert's CEA projection, φ_ts = 30.° to get Behrmann's projection, and φ_ts = 45.° to get the Gall-Peters (aka Gall's Orthographic) projection.
Added Ginsburg VIII projection (#73).
Hide center-of-projection latitude input field if projection cannot be centered off the equator.
Bugfix: Bad y-shift value for Raisz Half Ellipsoidal if tilt = 0°.
Bugfix: Some OSes/Javas not all able to read same list of input image formats via ImageIO, e.g., Windows version unable to open TIFFs.
(Non-Mac) Use JFileChooser rather than FileDialog for file opens and saves.
Bugfix: App could hang when displaying Equirectangular projection and grid spacing set to 0.

Version 1.0 (Build 73D1): Released 2007-03-13.
