Spherical harmonic transform (SHT) previews are display instead of a solid
background color before the base multires tiles are loaded. If a thumbnail is
provided, it will be displayed instead of the SHT preview. If the thumbnail is
provided as a Base64-encoded string, the SHT preview may be briefly displayed,
since image loading is asynchronous, while the SHT preview is loaded
synchronously.
* support also partial cubemap/fallback images: backgroundColor for missing face(s)
* extend multires/generate.py to cylindrical input and partial panoramas
* fixed a few typos in new help strings of generate.py
* Missing cubemap faces now need to be defined as null in the configuration
* made generate.py strict again on existing output directory, printing descriptive error message
* replaced unsafe eval by ast.literal_eval in generate.py
* a couple of minor improvements regarding 'undefined' in libpannellum.js
* made generate.py allow existing output directory in debug mode
for convenience, no need to delete output directory every time while testing
Replaces the os.system call for nona with a subprocess.check_call call
to get informed about errors when calling nona instead of silently
ignoring them before failing with missing files.
Checks for a nona executable and adds a command line argument to specify
an executable. The argument is required from the user in case nona
cannot be found on the path.
