  • Add overlay warning to the Earth editor if the browser width is too narrow

    smallwindow

    When the browser comes smaller than 900px wide, it will be quite difficult to use Re:Earth editor page. We recommend using a large browser size for a better experience. So we add an overlay warning to avoid the error happening. Note that this feature does not work on published projects and can continue to be viewed on smartphones.

New Features

  • Add scene property overriding to Re:Earth API

    Untitled

    To extend the abilities and possibilities of plugin development, the scene property is able to be overridden by a plugin (ex. for Cesium, skybox can be triggered, atmospheric conditions can be changed, etc by plugins).

    So we Added an overridePropertymethod to ReEarth API. This allows plugins to target specific scene property fields and modify them ephemerally (temporarily).

    Now do a merge to sceneProperty. If no overriddenSceneProperty will return the project's sceneProperty. If something is overridden, it'll merge into the project's.

Some features may not be shared through the three views. For example, camera height and pose will not be available in the 2D view. But most functions work well.
