Recent Changes and additions

19.08.10 - Localizer 0.0.8 (compatibility release)

This release only fixes running Localizer on Python 2.6 x64. Newer Workstation installations will get Python 2.6 as default interpreter. Old once can keep Python 2.5 and Localizer 0.0.7 for a while.

25.06.10 - Localizer 0.0.7

Fixes bug which prevented from localizing locally. For update run:

N:\PSL_GLOBALS\PSL_Pipeline\_software\__SCRIPTS__\localizer_install.bat

Also you can localize from Y: now. Simply add Y: to your server configuration like this:

[paths]
server = \\Pslsrv10\pslsrv10\;X:\;Y:\

24.06.10 - Fusion Environment

Fusion_Environment added.

10.06.10 - Path maps

We changed the files on Y: for consistency. So following mapping should be used on all workstations:

 X: Server (pslsrv10)
 Y: Remote Server Mirror (pslwst12)
 V: Local Drive

X and V should be used in the localizer. If you can't change your second local drive to V: call us.

08.06.10 - Localizer 0.0.6

This release fixes some bugs and gives further options. You can disable Refreshing on start by editing your configuration. Set refresh_on_start = 0.

Double Clicking on the target allows you to start a sequence viewer or explorer. You can change the default tools in the tools section of the configuration file. If the application doesn't start on a new thread include "start". You can change the default application in your config.

[tools]
path = explorer
imagesequence = start "N:\tools\DJV Imaging 64 Bit\bin\djv_view.exe"
movie = start

07.06.10 - Localizer 0.0.5

A bugfix release which enables to make use of the "fast server" pslwst12.

The default remote server path is "Y:\LOCALCACHE". Press F10 within the localizer to edit the preferences.

remote = y:\LOCALCACHE

You can also change the defaults:

postprocess = 0 or 1 if you want to enable the postprocess by default.
sizecalculation = 0 or 1 or 2 to have NoSize, AproxSize or RealSize by default.

Please note that the post process is ignored on remote jobs since it will mess up your trim ranges. Be sure to wait till the copyjob is finished and then use the localizer_toLocal script withing fusion.

01.06.10 - textover6

The macro textover might be the cause of missing font problems on rendernodes. The new one is created in Fusion6 and hopefully solves the problem. Also it sets the plate size and aspect ratio automatically.

01.06.10 - Frischluft OFX Update

The plugins on the rendernodes and in the OFX Gloabls are uptodate (v1.43). Older once cause problems.

01.06.10 - Send_toRoyalRender6

A fusion compscript script which does the following:

- Change Local Paths (depending on your localizer config file) to the server.
- Saves the comp
- Submits the comp to RR6 Submitter
- Saves a new version
- Undoes the path changes so you work local again in the new version

This way you never override the submitted comp which has the correct paths.
