Added a new mode to the Shrinkwrap SOP which computes a 2D convex hull.

Reduced memory usage for subd meshes in most cases.

Fixed issue with RMB > Save Node Type on VOP HDAs that have signature parm.

Animation Graph editor improvements.

• Added preference for MMB pan behavior. It can be found in Settings > Middle Mouse Interaction.
• Status prompts on the bottom of the screen now update to reflect this preference.
• "Show selected handles" is now the default view mode.
• Hidden slope/acceleration handles can no longer be selected.
• Hidden value handles can no longer be MMB dragged.
• Timemarks are highlighted to look more like 19.5.

Updated Houdini's USD library to match the official USD 23.05 release.

Ported attribute transfer optimizations from Unreal 5.0 to Unreal 4.26 & 4.27

Added Texture Mask Brush HDA. Meant to be used to define custom brushes to be used with the Texture Mask Paint SOP.

Ported Unreal 5.0 optimizations to Unreal 4.26 & 4.27.

Suppress warnings about missing table types for future table types.

Added an Enable toggle to each Target multiparm instance on the Prune LOP.

The Reference LOP has a new mode (controlled by the new Parameter Order parameter) which allows the Reference File and Reference Prim Path parameters to be evaluated once per matching Primitive, rather than evaluating the Reference File first, then evaluating the Primitives parameter once per matching file. This node will also now apply the Pre-Operation to all matching Primitives even if no reference is being added to these primitives.

Fixed bugs where the state of the virtual keyboard in the hotkey manager was incorrect when in a context with no immediate child actions and you couldn't open the assignments window by clicking on a key.

Transforms are now handled differently in mantra and karma CPU. The new method allows for more accurate rotational motion blur and will consume less memory.

Framing the selection in the Channel Editor Graph now considers selected Key Value Handles in addition to selected Time Marks.

Custom directories entries can now be prevented from saving to the user preferences directory by creating an empty jump.prefs.nosave in it.

Fixed a case where drawing Volumes could hang in the GL viewport when large scaling transforms are applied

An error is now added to the ROP node when a render is interrupted.

Updated Houdini's USD library to fix a performanec issue with drawing instanced prims with unloaded payloads as bounding boxes. The bounding boxes were not being drawn as instances. Also fixed an issue where importing the USD python libraries could raise an exception on Windows if the PATH variable contained a relative path.

HeightField Paint SOP's recache strokes will no longer generate a python exception.

Fixed an issue with the pdg.GraphContext.cook(..) API method throwing an exception when invoked with a pdg.CookOptions instance as its only argument.
