Release of 1.1.0

Major new release

Version 1.1.0 introduces the new JSXGraph element polygonalchain (sometimes also called “polyline”), see https://jsxgraph.org/docs/symbols/PolygonalChain.html and new attributes for gradient colors. Examples can be seen at https://jsfiddle.net/6wbmvjp3/ for linear gradients and https://jsfiddle.net/6wbmvjp3/1/ for radial gradients. The statistics module received the new method JXG.Math.statistics.generateGaussian which generates values of a standard normal random variable. JSXGraph v1.1.0 supports the exciting MathJax v3+ which renders math content much faster than v2. Following a user request, slider values can now be set by clicking on the slider baseline.

Further improvements include the autoposition feature for labels introduced in v1.0.0 which is now much more stable and arrow heads on curves do now end on the curves’ end point. This release contains a cleanup of the npm repository and - as usual - several bug fixes.

We thank all contributors which supplied patches, bug reports and suggestions for improvements.

Enjoy,
