What's new in version 1.5.1

Version 1.5.1 is the first open source software (OSS) release of FractalTrees X. Full source code is available. Otherwise it is a minor bug fix release addressing issues on 10.1.x systems only:
  • with 1.5.1, FTX does not crash on launch on Mac OS X 10.1.x
  • with 1.5.1, the height stepper works on 10.1.x

Version 1.5 is all about making FractalTrees X more fun to play with. The program is after all a toy, so some major rendering engine changes are now available: always-on autofit, and asynchronous, interruptable drawing. Also new by request is pre-determined random values when you increase the height of the tree.
  • Always-on autofit keeps the whole tree into the window, automatically
  • Asynchronous drawing allows you to see the tree drawing in progress
  • Interruptable drawing stops drawing if you change the settings, without waiting
  • Pre-determined random values allows you to increase the height of the tree while keeping the same random tree
  • Keyboard shortcuts are more intuitive
  • Streamlined, simpler interface
  • Nifty grab-hand cursor when you move the tree around in the window
  • Added two new draw styles: "grow mode" and the default asynchronous style
  • Small change to slim the tree's upper branches
