[4.6.0]

Breaking Changes

Minimum Unity version is now 6000.0
The render pipeline preprocessors (SHAPES_URP, SHAPES_HDRP, SHAPES_BIRP) are no longer defined or used by Shapes. This shouldn't affect your projects, unless you've been using them yourself!

Fixes

Fixed URP immediate mode not referencing texture resources properly, causing various errors and ZTest issues (#592, #642, #651, #677, #678, #691, #694)
Fixed various render pipeline import issues (#680, #575)
Fixed 6.3 API deprecation errors (#703)
Fixed WebGPU shader redefinition errors (#682)
Removed the now unused ShapesImportState, which sometimes caused editor assembly reference errors on build
The render pipeline import process no longer requires recompiling scripts or adding global preprocessor keywords

[4.5.1]

Features

Added helper methods to TextElement to append strings without allocations (#667)

Breaking Changes

Passing null into Draw.Text will now leave the text unchanged instead of clearing it

Fixes

Fixed a bug where Shapes components would use the wrong material assets, followed by trying to destroy them (#640, #654, #666)
Fixed a deprecation warning in Unity 6 (#653)
Fixed fillable shapes not respecting HDR color picker setting (#668)
Fixed GC allocations in URP immediate mode (#661)
Added overloads for drawing text without assigning a new string (#667)

[4.5.0]

Features

Use Draw.TextCurvature = 1/r; to match a circle with radius rDraw.TextCurvature determines how much the text should bend
<0 bends the text downwards like ⋂
=0 keeps the text straight like —
>0 bends the text upwards like ⋃
Curvature is in units of inverse meters, or, radians turned per meter traversed along the text
Note that this is not the center of a circle you might want to place the text alongDraw.TextCurvaturePivot
The "pinned" point in the local space of the text, that remains fixed when bending.
It defaults to the pivot point of (0,0), which is usually what you want.

Breaking Changes

Immediate mode text now uses the TextWrappingModes enum. Note that the additional wrap options only work in Unity 6 and above

Fixes

[4.4.0]

Features & Breaking Changes

Unity 6 Render Graph support (#629)
Minimum Unity version is now 2022.3
Shape components are now frustum culled by default, with a new culling setting (#270, #621)

SimpleGlobal is the old behavior, uses a bound the size of the observable universe, as specified in the Shapes settings, effectively disabling frustum culling
CalculatedLocal is the new default behavior, which enables frustum culling. note: This cannot take into account screen-space sizing, in that case you'll need to manually expand the bounds with the new property below
You can pad the local bounds with the BoundsPadding property, padding the bounding box on each axis by the given amount, in local space meters

Fixes

Immediate mode panels now respect the transformation hierarchy
Immediate mode panels are now always style-scoped and panel-relative
Immediate mode panels now respect editor object visibility state
All canvas camera modes are supported, though note that shapes are drawn underneath Unity's overlay
IM canvas should now only render in the appropriate cameras

Added buttons for automatically adding the Shapes render feature to URP renderers
Fixed temporary polylines and polygons not rendering in URP/HDRP (#625)
Fixed allocation issues with Shape components (#609)
Fixed polylines not regenerating the mesh when using less than 2 points (#604, #628)
Fixed gles shader warning (#627)
Shapes menu is now under Tools/Shapes (#574)
Fixed a quad color output bug at the lowest interpolation quality (#)
Added RemovePointAt to PointPath (#)
Fixed polylines not always regenerating its mesh when setting points (#)
Fixed immediate mode mesh drawing material property block issue (#)
