I've made a change to the "switch" layer type that is very useful but
also, unfortunately, backwards-incompatible (I've updated all of the
instruments currently in the base package).
In its old version, the switch layer looked like this:
<layer>
<type>switch</type>
<property>/foo/bar</property>
<layer>
...
</layer>
<layer>
...
</layer>
</layer>
If the /foo/bar property had a true boolean value, the first child
layer would be used; otherwise, the second would be used. In the new
version, the switch layer looks like this:
<layer>
<type>switch</type>
<layer>
<condition>
...
</condition>
...
</layer>
<!-- repeat as many times as needed -->
<layer>
...
</layer>
</layer>
The first layer with a true condition gets used, no matter how many
layers there are. This approach allows for simpler and more elegant
tests in animating 2D instruments.
All the best,
David
