v2.3.0



1. Overview

This internal release introduced foundational camera improvements and new configuration options for customizing the preview display.
While the ultrawide camera support was primarily a backend enhancement, the addition of PreviewMode scaling represents a visible and developer-facing API extension.


2. New Features

2.1. PreviewMode Scaling

  • Description:
    Added the ability to control how the camera preview is displayed — either Fit or Fill within the available view area.

  • Behavior:

    • Fit scales the preview to ensure the full frame is visible (may letterbox on some aspect ratios).

    • Fill scales to fill the entire view (may crop edges slightly).

  • Default:
    Existing integrations that omit this parameter continue using the default scaling behavior (equivalent to .fill).

2.2. Ultrawide Camera Support

  • Description:
    Internal enhancement to allow selection of ultrawide cameras when supported by the configuration.

  • Developer Impact:
    No public API changes required. This activates automatically if your AnalyserConfiguration specifies ultrawide use.
