3DMasterKit 10.5 and Legend 10.5 update

3DMasterKit  and Legend update version 10.5.

What’s new:

Updated .MTP project format. Now project layers are saved in a .PSDD file. This increases the reliability of project storage, and makes it possible to copy and use the layers file separately from the project.

Fixed bugs:

1. Error while saving the project in .MTP: resaving does not save modified layers and frames;
2. In the Pitch Test dialog, the values in inches change to mm when changing the Mode;
3. The Set Visible On All Layers button switches generation to Auto N in the Multiview generation dialog;
4. Lenticular tab: the specified picture size is reset to the Crop rect size after each encoding (interlacing);
5. Layers from .PSD files were added to position 100. Now they are added to the mid-position (0);
6. Error: if the Background parallax value is 0, then the Foreground parallax is applied incorrectly to the layer depth map;
7. Problem with the “transparency” of the layer after editing in an external editor;
8. The problem with saving layers in the .MTP project;
9. Error in saving the values of the depth map factor in the .MTP project;
10. Error in generating the positioning frame (in Legend).
