# Line 1381 | Line 1381 | care to support officially due to its machine-dependen
1381  
1382   Fixed bug that caused incorrect reporting of non-surface in set when
1383   mixing meshes and instances.  (Thanks to Jack de Valpine for discovery.)
1384 +
1385 + Fixed innacuracy in calculation of diffuse transmission in the presence
1386 + of pure specular (Fresnel reflection) using "trans" material.  Thanks
1387 + to Christoph Reinhart for pointing out the error.
1388 +
1389 + Made internal change to tone-mapping library to use structure pointer
1390 + rather than stack, making code re-entrant and more up to modern standards.
1391 +
1392 + Added -pd option to handle depth-of-field blur in rpict.  This requires
1393 + that the view directon (-vd option) include focal distance information,
1394 + which is now preserved by the various view file routines, and reported
1395 + by the vwright command.
1396 +
1397 + Added DBLUR variable to ranimate and pmdblur script to handle simultaneous
1398 + motion and depth-of-field blurring.  Thanks to Visarc for funding this work.
1399 +
1400 + Added setting of focus distance in rvu ("focus" command) and rholo
1401 + ('f'/"frame" command).
1402 +
1403 + Changed default remote shell in ranimate to "ssh" rather than "rsh",
1404 + which has been abandoned on most Unix systems due to security issues.
1405 +
1406 + Fixed behavior of source primitive using illum with no alternate
1407 + material.  These now become transparent so one can see the sky or
1408 + light-probe background for use in image-based lighting.  Previously,
1409 + the user needed to specify the background glow as the alternate
1410 + material for a distant illum source to behave properly.  (This still
1411 + works.)
