This is the first release of Glight. It is fully functional, and can be used in production.

Features in this release:

  • Allows the construction of presets, chases, sequences and various effects
  • Current effects: audiolevel, delay, fade, pulse, threshold
  • Unlimited number of fixtures and other elements
  • Shows can be saved and loaded
  • Any object inputs can be connect to any object outputs, allowing complex directed graphs: an effect can be connected to a chase that includes several presets, which itself can control other effects, chases, presets, etc
  • Allows easy construction of three types of advanced combinations: 1) a running light, 2) a sequence of colours and 3) a combination that turns your lights into an audio-controlled VU meter
  • Because the number of presets can become large quicky, they can be (hierarchically) structured in folders
  • When Glight is used during a production, it is possible to construct and test lights in a "dry mode", during which any changes are shown on screen but not send to DMX

Together this makes up version 0.8 of Glight, and finished the low-level architecture system of Glight. On this stable core, version 0.9 and 1.0 are planned to extend, both to improve some gui elements to make using Glight easier, as well as to include more effects, default chases and extend the timeline system.
