* Added Part::Feature::getTopoShape/getShape() function that can obtain
shape from any object with proper implementation of getSubObject(). It
can even construct compound from group object with proper implementation
of getSubObjects().
* Modified ViewProviderExt to work on any object, because it now obtain
the shape using Part::Feature::getShape()
* Modified various Part features to obtain base/tool shapes using
Part::getShape(), which allows them to be any type of object,
including Link and groups.
* Modified various Part command to relax type requirement on selected
objects.
* Add support of link and group to dimension, and add dimension refresh
command
* Support link and group in simple command command, and add a few more
copy command variations.
* Add special handling of 'Shape' attribute in PropertyContainerPy and
use Part::Feature::getShape() to return shape for any object without
Shape property. This allows many python feature work with any object
without modification.
* GeometrySurface/CurvePy, add convenience attribute 'Rotation'
* TopoShapePy:
* Extended support of sub shape attribute, e.g. Compound1, Solid2,
SubShape3 ('SubShape' is used to access child shape of a compound)
* makeWires(), new API to sort and return wires given a list of edges.
* transformed/translated/rotated/scaled(), return a new shape with
some transformation.
* findPlane(), find the plane of a planar shape
* isCoplanar(), check if two shape are coplanar
+ some are doxy others are just comment code.
+ some minor whitespace and grammatical tweaks.
+ app/SCL/* typos have also been submitted upstream (https://github.com/stepcode/stepcode/pull/366). So it's ok to merge them in to master.
*First step to move Part rendering using VBO instead of direct rendering
*Update comments inside the code
*Assume VBO is available if OpenGL > 3.0 is detected
*Add initial Color support to VBO rendering !
*Initial full feature VBO rendering implementation
*Modify some include issue for linux build
*Try to fix linux include header
*Reupdate header include for linux support
*Fix compilation on linux
*Fix linux and MacoOS build
*Fix glGetString definition
*Fix Windows build
*Add VBO support as an option into the Preference menu
*Fix crash while running FreeCAD test bench with new VBO rendering infrastructure (in both cases)
*Improve performances
*Compute material index only when a VBO update is required (improve frame rate by 10%)
*Clean the code
*Fix Travis compilation warning
*Try to fix Windows compilation issue
*Update include for Windows
