1.9.1

Changelog:

• Fix crash when handling recent VPX files (10.8+)

1.9.0

This version introduce API changes that would not be backward compatible. To maintain backward compatibility, a new property RuntimeVersion has been introduced, allowing to select which API to use. It defaults to the old (legacy) API.

Changelog:

• Update overall API with more features, allowing easier use and some feature additions (see IFlexDMD.cs). To name a few:
  • blinking action,
  • label alignment,
  • transparent actor's background,
  • automatically filling parent bounds,
  • seeking/looping videos & image sequences,
  • ...
• Full rewrite of the asset loader, avoiding memory leaks and allowing better memory management.
• New actor tree searching behavior, more 'deep tree' friendly (needs to be activated by setting RuntimeVersion to latest).
• New little frame packing algorithm added to the companion application to allow easier use of texture atlases.

Bug fixes:

• Fix label stuttering when scrolling (needs to be activated by setting RuntimeVersion to latest).
• Fix memory leaks and duplicate memory allocations.
• Adjusted default font for smaller space after comma.
