Fix potential .bgeo corruption when saving a mixture of float4 and float volume primitives.

Improve Volume Splice SOP with unequal tiles.

Headlight mode in the Scene View now uses a faster rendering path in Vulkan.

Fixed a bug in the Houdini embedded help browser where the browser's zoom factor resetted back to 1 whenever loading a new page.

updated componentutilslib: added the autorig components subgraphs updated guideutilslib:added FindPrimaryAxis for getting the primary axis between two joints

Fixed a bug in motion paths on Abstract Controls that cause the entire path to be drawn, ignoring the values of the "Limit Frames" options.

Fixed an issue with work items that have dependencies within their node not cooking when a cook is triggered using the "Cook Work Item" context menu entry.

Added a "Keep Node Names" toggle to APEX Script when decompiling to allow disabling the creation of metadata for node names in the created script.

Changed the default value of 'create_local_variable' to 'False' in 'hou.Geometry.addAttrib'.

Fixed a bug where shading normals erroneously used pre-displace normals for motion segments when a mesh has displacement shader and rendered with deformation blur.

Fixed a potential crash in the viewport when displaying an agent shape which contained packed primitives with a boneCapture attribute inside the packed geometry.

Fixed issues in the Configure Joints SOP that produced incorrect results when computing the mass and centers of mass from the collision shape input.

Changed default behavior of the Bright COP to leave the alpha channel untouched.

Floating windows no longer disappear when Houdini loses focus on macOS. This applies to windows that float on top when the General User Interface -> Keep Floating Windows on Top preference is checked on.

Added a new fbik::GetCenterOfMass callback which computes the center of mass position and total mass of an FBIK skeleton.

Added an option on the Edit Prototypes LOP to not author any composition arc on the selected prim(s). This lets you use this node to create a class prim structure at the destination of an existing inherit arc.

The Edit Properties LOP and nodes built on that base that are affecting a USD relationship can now append, prepend, or remove prims from the existing list of targets.

Improved the transfer speed of data to Houdini from Unreal for large sparse data sets.

Adds geo::Lattice::2.0 which includes support for Nurbs lattices and a falloff port allow a little wiggle room when a point sits just beyond the extent of the rest lattice (probably by means of a small deformation or numerical imprecision).

Adds the new "Nurbs" interpolation type and a falloff parameter to the Lattice SOP.

Added 'A' (albedo) event type in light path expression so that it's possible to write out albedo AOV based on specific path or BSDF component.

Fixed potential crash creating new viewer panes via hotkey.

On the HQueue Job page, Download Diagnostics Information button shows regardless of job status, while the Output Log and its Download button appear only when the job is assigned to a client.
