Selector and Routing Updates
This release brings several improvements to selectors and routing, making them more intuitive and easier to manage:
- Order Numbers for Selectors: Selectors now include order numbers, which help in organizing and prioritizing them effectively. The order number is derived from the sorting of selectors done in Toolbox.
- Visibility in Routing: Selectors are now visible in routing and available inputs. This enhancement simplifies the process of managing connections by providing a clear overview of available options.
- "Off" Value for Selectors and Routing: The value
off
is now used instead of0
for both selectors and routing. This change improves clarity by explicitly indicating when a selector or routing path is disabled, reducing ambiguity in configurations.
Filter Plugin Enhancements
bypass
option is now accessible in filter plugins, offering improved control and transparency when managing filters.
