Change Log:

New
     0007338: Tooltips for PWS tools

New
    0007294: Is "Keep alive" possible for NetRender

New
    0007299: Requesting additions to Baking materials
           it's now possible to change the imagetype for Bake surface (selectable in the Extended Bake Surface Dialog,
           holding Shift key while starting Bake surface)

New
  - "Camera Marker Rotoscope" AKA Marker Mode
    To view the added toolbar button, you need need to reset the toolbar
    Tools->Options->Toolbars hit "Reset", then You will see a new new icon "Marker Mode" right next
    the "Choreography mode" icon. This icon will be enabled if You are in camera view and the
    "Shortcut to camera" is selected in the PWS.


    Upon selecting this icon, the "Marker Mode" is enabled and a new rotoscope for this view is created, if
    no marker rotoscope was created previously. Also a new toolbar called "Marker" is visible .


    This rotoscope has a reduced functionality compared to a normal rotoscope (can't be moved or sized).
    By default the created rotoscope has the file format tif and uses the alphachannel, it will be automatically
    resized if You size the camera view. This rotoscope will be not visible in final render.


    The Marker toolbar buttons
    - FreeHand
      if it's enabled You can paint while holding LMB in the camera viewport with the selected pencil size/color
      releasing LMB will transfer the paint to the rotoscope
    - Straight Line
      with LMB you can make a straight line ,with corner point at each LMB click, a RMB click will end
      the current line an transfer it to the rotoscope
    - Text
      when enable a dialog occurs at the point where You make a RMB click. In the editfield you can add a
      multiline text
      with the button "Select Font" You can select the font, size, color for the text to drawn.
      hitting "OK" will add the text at the origin point
    - Erase
      works like FreeHand, but will erase instead to add drawing
    - Clear
      make the complete rotoscope empty
    - Configure Pen
      set the pen size and color
      Setting the pen size and color can also be done at Tools->Customize->Appearance->Item "CameraMarkerRotoscoope"

    "Configure read/write settings OIIO"
    It's now recommended to use this ImageIO's , they are more up-to-date than the real plugins, which
    are marked as "... sequence (Plugin)"  
    Default ImageIO is now TIF with the default settings UINT8 and compression LZW

New
    Expressions :


    GetWorldPosX( bone.transform ) Returns the world X position of the bone, who's transform is supplied, as a float value.
    GetWorldPosY( bone.transform ) Returns the world Y position of the bone, who's transform is supplied, as a float value.
    GetWorldPosZ( bone.transform ) Returns the world Z position of the bone, who's transform is supplied, as a float value.
    VectorGetX( vector ) Returns the x value from a vector as floating point value.
    VectorGetY( vector ) Returns the y value from a vector as floating point value.
    VectorGetZ( vector ) Returns the z value from a vector as floating point value.


    example:
    VectorGetX(GetWorldPos(..|..|..|..|Model1.Transform.Translate))
