### Summary EXIF metadata now supported by PNG group. ### Suggested Solution According to changes to the PNG specification (http://ftp-osl.osuosl.org/pub/libpng/documents/pngext-1.5.0.html#C.eXIf), the PNG format now supports EXIF data. It would be...
### Summary Our current media method 3 jitter code doesn't bound even the smallest jitter within the end points of the sub-intervals. This is most obvious when the media density...
Running the same file on windows and osx gives different results, where the windows version is more "lively"---it seems like the osx version blends the texture with some default color,...
### Summary Artifacts appear near the center of the bezier lathe object sturm or not. With some severe rotations away from the camera result OK. Originally reported in the newsgroups...
### Summary Users have occasionally asked that POV-Ray support photometric IES files (*.ies). Such support exists in other rendering software though what that really means in those tools and to...
Bounding box computation for CSG intersection uses a special mechanism to optimize bounding of some special cases of the quadric primitive, such as infinite axis-aligned cylinders. However, this mechanism is...
If the coordinates the partial render are not normalized, no error is given but the renderer hangs indefinitely. Any scene will do: ```pov #version 3.7; sphere { 0, 1 }...
Concerns version 3.7.0.0 onward, although was opposite way around in previous version(s). Unexpected results can occur if object keyword hollow is used in CSG and/or looks_like object because of internal...
For background see the newsgroup thread at: http://news.povray.org/povray.animations/thread/%3C594eb2f6%241%40news.povray.org%3E/ If possible, perhaps support the feature in a way to match windows for unix builds. Where not supported an exit with an...
The following example, originally from Sean Day, works as expect using -ur but not with the default +ur though the specified bounded_by box meets the "better bounding" tests in parse.cpp....
