Revision 1.82.1

Vtube-laser 1.81.4.jpg





Check.jpg NEW: Improved Menus on Right Side with Adjustable Font Sizes in Grids

The right menu is completely redesigned to allow for resizing with different font sizes. The buttons are now grid-based - which allows them to redize quickly based on the font sizes.

Vtube-1.83 gridbased menu.jpg

The font sizes can be adjusted in the System Option/User Interface menu:

Check.jpg NEW: Side Panels are Collapsible for an Expanded Viewport

The side panels in both STEP and LASER modes are collapsible.

Check.jpg NEW: Event Times in Bender Setup

Bender Setup now shows the most recent event times for the project in memory.

This includes the time of the most recent recall from the bender, the time of the most recent send to the bender, and the time of the most recent adjustment data calculation.

Vtube-1.83 benderdata datetime communication closeup.jpg

This date/time data is stored with the project file. Each project will have different communications times. The date/times are loaded with the project files.

VTube shows "[Waiting for first RECALL]" or "[Waiting for first SEND]" before communications occurs the first time for a project.
