New py5 release 0.10.7a0!

py5
1

This release includes the following version updates:

  • Minimum Python version is now 3.10 (previously 3.9)

  • JPype minimum version is now 1.6 (previously 1.5.2)

  • numpy minimum version is now 2.2 (previously 1.26)

Also, this py5 release includes the core jars from the latest Processing release, 4.4.6.

The Py5Image object has a new resize() method that works like the PImage.resize() method in Processing. See the Py5Image.resize() documentation for more information.

This release includes fixes for several issues:

  • #666 was fixed, so py5 should now work with FX2D on Windows 11 - many thanks to vsquared aka @svan for identifying the coding error that caused this problem.

  • #578 has been resolved. The problem here was that py5 could crash on older macOS machines if a particular sequence of events occurred with the default JAVA2D renderer and the OpenGL renderer. This issue was a major thorn in my side for a long time, and Iā€™m relieved that it is now closed.

  • #659 has been fixed. This issue caused problems when converting Shapely objects with only two vertices to Py5Shape objects for use in P3D mode.

Happy coding!
