v0.24.2

Release date: 2026-07-07

Early Access

The Luminary Cloud API and Python SDK are Early Access features that are still under development. View the Luminary Cloud Early Access Terms. The interface may change, and you may need to migrate or discard scripts and configuration files multiple times before v1.0.0 is released. In the future, migrations may also be necessary when upgrading to new major versions of the SDK (e.g. v2.0.0).

Release Notes

This release adds VTK export of visualization filter data, new ways to tag and import geometry, two new colormap presets, and a fix to how reference values are applied when downloading simulation outputs.

Breaking Changes

None.

Features

  • New Scene.export_vis_filter_data() method exports a visualization scene’s derived filters (slices, clips, contours, thresholds, streamlines, glyphs, …) as VTK .vtu files — one file per filter. The source mesh/solution is not exported, only the filter results. The export runs asynchronously and returns a FilterDataOutput handle; call wait() and then download(output_dir) to stream each file to disk (this scales to large outputs, with an optional filter_ids=[...] for a subset). Volume filters such as thresholds and clips are exported as their external surface only.

  • Project.create_geometry() and VolumeSelection.import_cad() now accept an optional keyword-only tag: str = "" parameter. When non-empty, all volumes imported from the CAD file are automatically tagged with that name.

  • Project.create_geometry() now accepts an optional file_id from a prior upload as an alternative to cad_file_path. The file is ingested by reference and the server resolves and authorizes it, which enables importing a file across projects.

  • Two new colormap presets, ColorMapPreset.YL_GN_BU and ColorMapPreset.REDS, are available for visualization display attributes.

Deprecations

None.
