Many instances of a function or expression being used repeatedly, which can lower performance.
Fixed it in these cases by creating on local var, reference or pointer that's used instead.
Also tweaked the loading methodology to have the canvas by default assume it should force the window display as soon as it can. You can set the canvas to not do that when it's created via the new displayWindow variable.
This way, old templates and projects should work as normal without changes, while the new templates are built to take advantage of the nicer splash screen arrangement.
Process::_signalProcess is destroyed first, and then Win32WindowManager::~Win32WindowManager() try to remove from deleted Signal causing a crash.
SlotSignal handle this automatically.
The GFX (DirectX) pipeline did not respect the choice of adapter and
always went for the default one. Normally this isn't an issue unless
you wish to target a particular adapter and display device combination.
This has been corrected.
The GFX initialize functions now attempt to find the best adapter that
matches a given display device (i.e. monitor) if one has been passed in.
To aid with choosing a display device some new monitor enumeration
methods have been added to the platform window manager. These methods
have been exposed to the Canvas.
