# UVAtlas - isochart texture atlasing
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=512686
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation.
**February 28, 2022**
This package contains UVAtlas, a shared source library for creating and packing an isochart texture atlas.
This code is designed to build with Visual Studio 2017 ([15.9](https://walbourn.github.io/vs-2017-15-9-update/)), Visual Studio 2019, Visual Studio 2022, or clang for Windows v11 or later. Use of the Windows 10 May 2020 Update SDK ([19041](https://walbourn.github.io/windows-10-may-2020-update-sdk/)) or later is required.
These components are designed to work without requiring any content from the legacy DirectX SDK. For details, see [Where is the DirectX SDK?](https://aka.ms/dxsdk).

## Release Notes
* Starting with the December 2020 release, this library makes use of typed enum bitmask flags per the recommendation of the _C++ Standard_ section *17.5.2.1.3 Bitmask types*. This is consistent with Direct3D 12's use of the ``DEFINE_ENUM_FLAG_OPERATORS`` macro. This may have *breaking change* impacts to client code:
* You cannot pass the ``0`` literal as your option flags value. Instead you must make use of the appropriate default enum value: ``UVATLAS_DEFAULT`` or ``UVATLAS_IMT_DEFAULT``.
* Use the enum type instead of ``DWORD`` if building up flags values locally with bitmask operations. For example, ``UVATLAS options = UVATLAS_DEFAULT; if (...) options |= UVATLAS_GEODESIC_FAST;``
* The UWP projects and the Win10 classic desktop project include configurations for the ARM64 platform. These require VS 2017 (15.9 update) or later to build, with the ARM64 toolset installed.
