API Changes in Dynamo 2.12

DynamoCoreWPF

Many WPF controls which are no longer used are removed. In general, the WPF controls in DynamoCoreWPF should not be included in the DynamoCore API. As the Dynamo UI changes controls may be modified or removed if required.

• NodeHelpPrompt Control is removed.

• When creating types that implement IGraphicItems note that some members are now obsolete and may no longer function fully, to add color and texture maps now implement the new IRenderPackageSupplement interface. This will provide much enhanced performance and memory consumption in Dynamo.

• When using DynamoCore APIs to access RenderPackages directly, you will notice that usually only a single render package per node is produced, instead of a render package per computation. Use the new APIs like IRenderPackageSupplement.TextureMapsList to find the resulting texture you wish to access.
