Dear testers,

Grasshopper 0.6.0012 is now available for download from:
http://download.mcneel.com/s3/mcneel/plug-in/beta/en/grasshopper_wip_20090410.exe

Same installer, zipped up in case you have problems downloading exe
files:

Bug fixes:
- Region and BRep trimming components only outputted a single result
curve, this has been fixed.
- Curve and Surface planarity tests did not allow for minor
deviations, this has been fixed.
- Fixed a display bug with wire drawing, you should now less often get
the red-screen-of-death.

New Components:
- Pull Point (project points onto generic geometry)
- Bounds (create a numeric interval which encompasses a list of
numbers)
- Bounds 2D (create a two-dimensional numeric interval which
encompasses all x and y coordinates from a list of points)


New features:
- [Point List] now has an optional font size setting
- Alignment tools have been added to the toolbar (Ctrl+Click to also
distribute at the same time)
- Alignment widget is now drawn around the selection set. This feature
is in development, it needs more work. You can disable this widget via
the View->Widgets menu.
- Script components can now output data in non-native data types. This
allows for sharing of custom data between scripts.
- Script components can now output data trees (see example here:
http://groups.google.com/group/grasshopper3d/web/DataTreeExamples_VB_CS.zip
)
- Shaders can now create themselves from colours, so you no longer
have to use the [Create Shader] component, unless you want to control
transparency/shine etc.
- Grasshopper now ships with the debugger pdb files, which might
provide us with more accurate crash reports in the future.


I'm sure the above lists are incomplete.
