The Natron developers are proud to announce the release of Natron 2.4.1 .
Known issues
Rendering sometimes silently stalls after X frames.
Some image formats may have issues (PCX, PSB).
MTS video files are sometimes not read correctly.
Changes
Default number of render threads is more reasonable on multi-core systems: min(num_cores, RAM/3.5Gb)
.
Fix checkerboard drawing on macOS Catalina and later.
Fix undoing “Reset to default” on parameters.
Fix NodeGraph manipulation and navigation issues.
Fix Retina/High-DPI display issues on macOS, Windows and Linux/X11.
Fix multi-dimensional parameter linking (bug introduced in 2.4.0).
Fix bug where any argument containing an integer between commas would be interpreted as a frame range.
Python: app.saveProject
and app.saveProjectAs
now do project variable substitution, as in app.saveProjectAs("[Variable]/output.ntp")
.
Fix ASCII curve import.
New color selection dialog for RGB and RGBA knobs.
Fix histogram smoothing (was 5 times too strong).
Add Python functions guiApp.copySelectedNodes
and guiApp.pasteNodes
.
Plugins
Transform, CornerPin, Position and Ramp nodes now display the motion path.
HueCorrect now has the ability to do hue vs. hue adjustments, with an option to change the background curve guide.
Merge: Fix behavior on most operators when A is not connected or A’s RoD and B’s RoD are disjoint.
Reformat: fix bugs when “turn” is checked with Resize Type = None or Type = Scale.
Write: Remove file first when overwriting.
Mirror: Fix crash.
SeNoise: Add option for colored noise.

Thank you William Young for your video describing changes in 2.4.1! I’m not on FB but I was able to see it, and I’m glad you liked that release!

Next to come is a transition to Python 3, so almost every change will be “under the hood”, sorry.

Just compiled your GIT_BRANCH=ColorSelectorPalette
Version on Linux (popOS! 20.04).
The palette will stay black:
No big deal, had some spare time to compile test…

You add colors to the palette with the “Add” button (or Shift+A). You clear a color with right-click (or all with the “Clear” button (or Shift+C)).
Please use https://github.com/NatronGitHub/Natron/issues/688 or make a new thread on the forum, since this thread is related to the release of 2.4.1.

Just wanted to drop a quick word of thanks to @rodlie for the Win7 patch. Very kind of you to remember us

No problem
Sadly this will at some point stop, as more and more software (that Natron depends on) are dropping Windows 7 support (for better API’s available in Windows 8+).
I should be able to provide Windows 7 fixes for Natron 2.5.x, but no guarantees.

And that is 2.4.3.
With both OIIO and OCIO now requiring Windows 8+ I will not provide Windows 7 fixes for Natron anymore.

a kind of an off topic question. What happened to the Natron Twitter account? I still hear from several artists that Natron is not developed anymore which is not true

The Twitter account is not maintained, unsure if anyone has access to it anymore.
