What's New in RasterLab

Updates, improvements, and bug fixes

V1.2 05/07/2026 Latest

Bug Fixes

General bug fixes

Fixed an issue where processor overlay visuals were incorrectly being applied to screens utilizing canvas resolution overrides and canvas remapping overrides that fit under resolution maximums for certain processors

Fixed incorrect signal port counts for screens utilizing Megapixel Helios dual Helios seamless redundancy configuration were not correctly doubling

Fixed incorrect project total counts for processors–unneccesarily doubling Helios processor counts in dual Helios seamless redundancy configuration

Per processor PNG export in screen grid layout section of Summary page was incorrectly splitting grids, exports are fixed for all processor types/counts

Feature Updates

Canvas Remap Updates (previously called canvas output)

Allows for standalone screens to remap as well, however if any screens new canvas resolution does not fit in any configuration onto a single processor, split option does not appear
Allow increased number of splits utilizing up and down arrows to increase number of rows subsequently decreasing number of panels per row (ie. 2 rows of 60, 3 rows of 40, 5 rows of 24, 6 rows of 20 etc)
Now allows screen split into columns- for example screen of 3x30 splits into multiple bands of 3 columns (ie. 3x30, 6x15, 9x10, etc). These bands will fit automatically into the maximum canvas size of the selected processor.
Split is automatically optimized on activation to create the proper number of rows or columns in order for screens to fit inside maximum canvas size for the specified processor
Each new split now shows its top-left (x,y) position in the canvas and resolution per split for ease of media server operators splicing
PNG and media guide exports now have options for exporting native or remapped canvases
All canvas remap updates now detailed in the User Manual and have been updated for use in the Media Guide

Expert Mode

Brightness and power standards now have two user levels, Basic and Expert, with Basic making these options global for all screens and Expert mode now allowing brightness, voltage and phase to be adjusted per screen.
Expert mode now unlocks the ability in the Wiring tab for adding extra processors manually and Socapex cable circuits for better customization

Bug Fixes

General Bug Fixes

Fixed issue with Screen Editor page grid preview renderer causing scaling issues when utilizing certain products creating overflow outside the canvas

Expert Mode now properly allows all overrides of signal and power as well as combining screens over the standard capacities

Fixed issue with wiring tab not saving manual routing for signal when navigating away from and returning to tab

Canvas resolution overrides now properly reflect in the Media Guide and the summary PDF exports

Max panels per port counts now properly updates when multiple products are utilized within a combined screen

Most-Efficient port formula now properly ignores inter-column guards for all processors except Megapixel Helios

Megapixel Helios processing now has new port packing logic that is column based and reduced capacity based on chain length–refer to Helios manual for more specific description

Feature Updates

Megapixel Helios redundancy functionality has been updated to properly reflect all modes allowed by the processor.

Seamless Mode - Dual Helios processor, switch, and cable full stack redundancy Seamless Loop - Tile Link mode (intra-switch cable-only redundancy) & Seamless Loop - Switch mode (inter-switch, switch and cable redundancy)

Changes to auto-routing design configuration
Updates cable counts only for gear list
Dual Helios updates to required hardware counts for gear list (double processor counts, switch counts and cable counts)

App now checks for updates in the background and will notify the user if an update is available; occurs once daily

Combining screens that are already combined now creates sub-screen groups which are movable as a whole inside the grid preview. Maintaining (option) key and selecting a screen will allow dragging of a screen within a sub-group

Now displays resolutions pixel clock, E2 bandwidth types (single link, dual link, 4k), Analog Way LivePremier capacity type (capacity 1, capacity 2, capacity 4) in the resolution card within the Screen Statistics panel

Math for signal port counts/XD box/switch/processor counts now update to reflect wiring tabs utilizations

Display a breakdown of itemized weight calculations per screen in the summary PDF export to give a clearer picture of weight estimates (These calculations are only estimates and may not reflect real life practical values, it is your responsibility to verify actual weights with a licensed structural engineer or rigger before executing)

Utilizing Brompton processors with resolutions smaller than 720 now warn the user of a 720 pixel minimum height/width as laid out in the processors user manual

Adding custom products requires pixel dimensions to be even numbers

Allow multiple logos to be saved and recalled for use in overlay of grid png exports new Rasterlab Change Log test.3 - [date]

Custom logo and primary color from the logo will now be used for Media Guide generation and pdf summary exports

Bug Fixes

Summary PDF export now shows screens with canvas remap and manual override resolutions properly

USA 3 phase voltage was being incorrectly calculated and is now fixed

Feature Updates

New Features

RasterLab now allows you to snapshot a screen configuration you commonly use to recall into other projects! Right-click the screen in the list on the sidebar and choose Save as Snapshot or navigate to Products > Snapshot Save, choose your screen to snapshot, and adjust gear list items you wish to include in the snapshot are added to the existing gear list!
