Highlights include:

• Fixed issue where terrain with multiple layers was loading higher LOD tiles inconsistently. #11312
• Updated endpoints for OpenStreetMap tiles #11407
• Fixed calculation of GroundPolyline bounding spheres in regions with negative terrain heights. #11184
• Fixed CzmlDataSource in cases of custom Ellipsoid.WGS84 definitions. #11190

• Fixed promise return value when using viewer.flyTo to navigate to an ImageryLayer. #11392
• Fixed depthTestAgainstTerrain value being overridden when using the base layer picker widget. #11393
• Fixed a bug where Model would not respond to different alpha values in a Cesium3DTileStyle. #11399

See the changelog for the complete list of changes.

CesiumJS 1.107

1.107 - 2023-07-03

Highlights include:

1.104 - 2023-04-03

Highlights include:

• The readyPromise pattern has been deprecated across the API. It will be removed in CesiumJS 1.107. This has been done to facilitate better asynchronous flow and error handling. #11059
• Added asynchronous constructors for ImageryProviders, TerrainProviders, 3D Tilesets, and Models.
• Fixed various race conditions from asynchronous operations. #10909
• Fixed Cesium.Viewer instantiated inside lit components: CreditDisplay is missing its styles #10907

See the changelog for the complete list of changes.

CesiumJS 1.103

1.103 - 2023-03-01

Highlights include:

• Added smooth zoom with mouse wheel. #11062
• Enabled lighting on voxels with BOX shape. #11076
• Fixed browser warning for willReadFrequently option. #11025
• Replaced constructor types with primitive types in JSDoc and generated TypeScript definitions. #11080
• Adjusted render order of voxels and opaque entities. #11120

See the changelog for the complete list of changes.

CesiumJS 1.102

1.102 - 2023-02-01

Highlights include:

• CesiumJS now defaults to using a WebGL2 context for rendering. WebGL2 is widely supported on all platforms and this results in better feature support across devices, especially mobile.
• Added FeatureDetection.supportsWebgl2 to detect if a WebGL2 rendering context in the current browser.
• Fixed label background rendering. #11040
• Fixed a bug decoding glTF Draco attributes with quantization bits above 16. #7471

See the changelog for the complete list of changes.

CesiumJS 1.101

1.101 - 2023-01-02

Highlights include:

• Added vertexShadowDarkness parameter to Globe to control the amount of darkness of the vertex shadow when terrain lighting is enabled. #10914
• Added experimental support for 3D Tiles voxels with the 3DTILES_content_voxels extension. The current implementation is intended for development use, as the voxel format has not yet been finalized and is subject to breaking changes without deprecation. #10253
• Fixed a bug where the scale of a PointPrimitive was incorrect when scaleByDistance was set to a NearFarScalar. #10912
• Fixed glTF models with a mix of Draco and non-Draco attributes. #10936
