This release includes a significant UI redesign that aims to resolve some of the previous UI issues.
Updated UI
Collapsible Group
It's now possible to collapse a layer group
New dropdown icons
Dropdownable UI panels now have distinct arrow icons and are easier to click.
Layer channel source
Previously you needed to enable override toggle (hidden by default) to change layer channel value, now you can just change the layer channel source.
Other UI changes
- Vector option is now outside of layer dropdown
- Use lock icon toggle for Uniform Scale
- Object index is now consistently labeled
Object index
instead ofPass Index
- Layer and mask sources are now directly integrated into the UI
- Experimental display list option to make mask/override images to have their own entries on the layer list
- Rebake button is added beside
Use Baked
button - Blender 2.7x also has an updated UI, but the dropdown area is still the icon only (icon label can't be clicked)
