Toon Boom Harmony 15.0.3 Release Notes
Here is the list of changes in Harmony Advanced 15.0.3, build 13585:
Features
WebCC
Feature | Description |
---|---|
Support for SSL in Harmony |
Harmony is now able to update scenes exported from WebCC even if the server only accepts SSL connections. If the WebCC server requires SSL, you must specify it in the General tab of the Preferences dialog by adding https:// before the name of the WebCC server. You can now configure Harmony to use the full URL to your WebCC server, instead of entering the hostname and the port number separately For Harmony to be able to validate the certificate of the WebCC server, you may have to configure the WebCC server with the root CA certificate and/or its intermediate. You can now do this by launching WebCC with the following parameter: -ca <path to root CA/intermediate certificate> If you want to specify the root CA and its intermediates, you can use the -ca parameter several times, once for each certificate you need to specify.

Permission to import and export any scene for animators |
It is now possible to override the security restriction on Animator-type users requiring them to be assigned to a scene before they can export and import it. This can be done by running WebCC with the following command line parameter: -permission animator import_export_any_scene on

Harmony will now remember whether the Onion Skinning by Drawing option is enabled between sessions. This option can be enabled by doing one of the following:
|
Harmony will now remember whether the Xsheet's Enable Playback option is enabled between sessions. This option can be enabled by opening the Xhseet view menu in the top-left corner of the Xsheet and selected View > Enable Playback. |
Significantly increased the speed of template creation on Windows. |
Flattening drawings with textured vector brushes will now discard unused textures in the drawing files, reducing their file size. |
Increased the precision of colour art generation by scaling up the line art before generating the colour art, then scaling both art layers back down. By default, this is done by scaling the artwork by 4 times before generating the colour art. This factor can be adjusted by setting the hidden parameter LINE_ART_TO_COLOUR_ART_FIT_SCALE to the preferred factor. This can be done by running the following code in the Harmony Script Editor, replacing <preferred factor> with an integer: preferences.setDouble("LINE_ART_TO_COLOUR_ART_FIT_SCALE", <preferred factor>);
|
Harmony now only initializes the machine's printer when attempting to print instead of when launching the application. If the machine's printer has driver issues, this will prevent such issues from occurring systematically when launching Harmony. |
Removed the Distribute to Layers command from the contextual menu of the Camera view, so that tablet users will not accidentally select it. |
