=========================
New features
=========================
< None >
=========================
Fixes
=========================
==== CL 15350 ====
@FIX: submission from inside AfterEffects CC 2015 shows "2014" in the
submission UI's "CC year" version field
==== CL 15021 ====
@FIX: AfterEffects frame ranges starting at greater than 0 and below 1000 can

=========================
Changes in behavior
=========================
==== CL 15538 ====
@CHANGE: start 3dsmaxcmd.exe with a wrapper when running 3ds Max 2016 or later,
handle Max 2016's new UTF-16le encoding in stdout
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.7-2a FEATURES AND FIXES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This patch was only made available on Windows.
6.7-2a was primarily released to address a build-related error that prevented
WranglerView from starting on Windows Server 2008 SP2. It also incorporates changes
made after the release of 6.7-2 that were originally intended for 6.7-3.
=========================
New features
=========================
==== CL 14607 ====
@NEW: add additional messages to regex_errors for nuke cmdline and loadOnce jobs (CL 14597)
=========================
Fixes
=========================
==== CL 14799 ====
@FIX: Regex and wildcards broken in performance charts job name filter
==== CL 14725 ====
@FIX: upper limit on processors reservations set to 48; limit removed entirely
==== CL 14722 ====
@FIX: "Object of type function found where a Number, Array, or Property is
needed" when submitting from inside AfterEffects CC 2015
==== CL 14720 ====
@FIX:Include output path regex for Blender jobs so Blender jobs properly report
their output image(s).
==== CL 14711 ====
@FIX: job->interrupt not interrupting shortest-instance, not shortest-running work
==== CL 14607 ====
@FIX: ERROR: unable to successfully execute command "nuke.scriptOpen" - don't
double-quote the path to the Nuke script (CL 14599)
=========================
Changes in behavior
=========================
==== CL 14607 ====
@CHANGE: starting up a pythonChildHandler to manage a "LoadOnce" application
does not implicitly start the application, must now call the handler's start(),
and pass server port number to the subprocess args. (CL 14598)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.7-2 FEATURES AND FIXES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
=========================
New features
=========================
==== CL 14561 ====
@NEW: add ability to not render on master for 3dsMax V-Ray DBR
==== CL 14550 ====
@NEW: ensure that job instance count is always at least one more than the
minimum satellite count
==== CL 14510 ====
@NEW: add callbacks to the 3dsMax V-Ray DBR jobs that kill or fail all
instances as soon as the master running on instance 0 is killed or failed
=========================
Fixes
=========================
==== CL 14543 ====
@FIX: Arnold submission fails when "abort if license check fails" is selected;
KeyError: 'cmdline'
==== CL 14499 ====
@FIX: global resources are not displayed in the reservation's "browse" dialog
if the "Resource Summary" is hidden by user preference
=========================
Changes in behavior
=========================
==== CL 14510 ====
@CHANGE: 3dsMax V-Ray DBR jobs can now start once all satellite instances are
running, or the master node will "collect" satellite nodes for a set period of
time and then start with less than the full complement; unstarted instances are
immediately set to "complete" since they won't be able to contribute once the
master has started the render
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.7-1c FEATURES AND FIXES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WranglerView 6.7-1c contains an optimization that delays the loading of the job
logs when a job is selected unless the stdout/stderr log pane is showing. This
allows the user to scroll through the job listing much quicker, and only when
the log's panel is displayed in the right-hand pane are the job's logs loaded.
It also provides for better functionality for the (new since 6.7-0) "Log Size"
column in the job and instance listings; when you select a job the log sizes
for the job are calculated and displayed. If the log's panel is not visible,
this allows the user to decide whether they wish to actually attempt to load
the logs by displaying the log panel.
=========================
Fixes
=========================
==== CL 14482 ====
@FIX: modifying a job can result in the job's environment being cleared out entirely
==== CL 14454 ====
@FIX: performance tweak: don't fetch the job logs when selecting the job if the
log pane is not shown
=========================
Changes in behavior
=========================
==== CL 14486 ====
@CHANGE: only fetch log sizes on job select, not at startup when logs are locally accessible
==== CL 14454 ====
@CHANGE: display the log sizes after the job is selected, can be done without
retrieving the actual logs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.7-1b FEATURES AND FIXES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WranglerView 6.7-1b contains an optimization uncovered by Andy Jones and Alon
Gibli of PSYOP Los Angeles which affects performance when the log sections for
individual frames get very large.
=========================
Fixes
=========================
==== CL 14445 ====
@FIX: apply Andy Jone's (Psyop LA) regex tweak to the section that trims text
after "requesting work". Will benefit logs with very long per-frame sections.
==== CL 14443 ====
@FIX: don't make the "got work" regex greedy, it can cause a log application
hang where the per-frame log data is very long; the time spent in the hang is
actually invisible to the python profiler
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.7-1a FEATURES AND FIXES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WranglerView 6.7-1a is intended as a "roll-up" release, primarily intended to deliver the
performance fix relating to jobs with large agendas, but also making available all changes
since the 6.7-1 release

=========================
Fixes
=========================
==== CL 14441 ====
@FIX: when logs exceed size limit set in user pref _and_ logs are retrieved
throught the supervisor, the head of the log is truncated at the size limit
instead of the middle portion of the logs being snipped out
==== CL 14437 ====
@FIX: additional changes necessary in order for the performance fix in CL 14434
to accommodate new log limit feature in 6.7
@FIX: another performance improvement, tweak regex that trims the end of the per-frame logs
==== CL 14434 ====
@FIX: severe performance impact to WV when loading logs for jobs with longer
agendas (500+ frames), regardless of length of the actual logs
==== CL 14413 ====
@FIX: Frames and Chunks columns sort as strings, not integer values: 1, 10, 2, 203, 9...
==== CL 14233 ====
@FIX: catch case where VRay spawner port and range has defaults set to 0
@FIX: enable VRaySpawner port and range controls on resubmission
=========================
Changes in behavior

==== CL 14394 ====
@CHANGE: don't evaluate up- or downstream dependencies if the "dependency
graph" is hidden by user preferences

New features
=========================
< None >
=========================
Fixes
=========================

locally accesible via client_log_path
==== CL 14073 ====
