Changelog for gimp-2.10.8-lp150.2.74.x86_64.rpm :

* Fri Nov 09 2018 seanAATTsuspend.net- Update to vesion 2.10.8: Core: - Use adaptive chunk size in GimpProjectio nwhen rendering the projection asynchronously, rather than using a fixed chunk size. This provides a better trade-off between throughput and responsiveness dynamically, based on how fast the processing is. Tools: - In all selection tools, show error on attempt to subtract-from/intersect-with empty selection. - Fix text along path not working with vertical text. - Fix Text tool\'s frame position when undoing a move operation. - Streamline Text tool\'s drawing blocking/unblocking logic. - When moving a text layer using the text tool (through alt-drag), don\'t change the layer\'s box mode to \"fixed\", which is unnecessary, since the layer\'s size isn\'t affected. - Transform and deformation operations now maintain color for fully transparent pixels, making unerase and curves manipulation of alpha channel more reliable. - All transform tools now apply changes when you asve or export/overwrite an image without pressing Enter first to confirm changes. - Heal, Dodge/Burn, Smudge and Convovle tools now adjust the processed buffer and mask_buffer regions according to the changes made to the application region, as calculated by intersecting it with the drawable and mask extents. This fixes wrong application position when painting on a drawable whose origin is above/to the left of the image\'s origin, and there\'s a selection active. Plug-ins: - Port all plug-ins to the new iterator API in GEGL. - Improve automatic detection of HEIC/HEIF files. - Improve RawTherapee discovery by looking up registry key (should become useful with RawTherapee 5.5 and more). Usability: - Compatibility information in the Save dialog is now more understandable. The minimum GIMP version for the XCD file is always written down when it is GIMP 2.8 or over. The list of features warranting the minimum version is now listed in an expander container rather than as tooltip, which makes it more discoverable. The warning on compression is now displayed as its own text under the checkbox and not as additional text to the minimum GIMP version label. CLI: - New self-explanatory --enable-win32-debug-console CLI option Translations: - Updated translations: Danish, Dutch, Finnish, German, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Portugese (Brazil), Spanish, Swedish, Ukranian.
* Mon Aug 20 2018 SauerlandlinuxAATTgmx.de- Update to Version 2.10.6 Core: - Render drawable previews asynchronously. - Merge the file view filter and file format lists in GimpFileDialog. The presence of 2 lists was very confusing. Filters: - New \"Little Planet\" (gegl:stereographic-projection) filter. Tools: - Halt the Measure tool after straightening. - Add an \"orientation\" option to the measure tool, corresponding to the \"orientation\" property of GimpToolCompass (i.e., it controls the orientation against which the angle is measured, when not in 3- point mode.) The orientation is \"auto\" by default, so that the angle is always <= 45 deg. Note that the \"orientation\" option affects the tool\'s \"straighten\" function, so that the layer is rotated toward the current orientation. - Text layers can now represent vertical texts, with 4 variants: left-to-right and right-to-left lines, and forcing all characters to be upright or following Unicode\'s vertical orientation property.

* http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/ucd/VerticalOrientation.txt User Interface: - The Dashboard dockable dialog now has an \"async\" field to the dashboard\'s \"misc\" group, showing the number of async operations currently in the \"running\" state. - New Preferences option to enable/disable layer-group previews, since these can get quite time-expensive. Translations: - New language: Marathi - 9 translations were updated: Brazilian Portuguese, German, Greek, Italian, Polish, Romanian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish.
* Sat Jun 23 2018 SauerlandlinuxAATTgmx.de- Update to Version 2.10.4 Core: - Remove gimp_display_shell_draw_background() and all clipping hacks for drawing the canvas background. This optimizes away one entire step of drawing of image size, for each expose. - Font loading does not block startup anymore. Only consequence is that the Text tool may not be usable immediately if fonts are not fully loaded yet (and will output an appropriate error if you do so). All non-text related activities can be performed right away. - Change of the URL from bugzilla to gitlab where appropriate. User Interface: - The Dashboard dockable dialog now has a \'Memory\' group that shows memory-usage information: the currently used memory size, the available physical memory size, and the total physical memory size. It can also show the tile-cache size, for comparison against the other memory stats. Note that the upper-bound of the meter is the physical memory size, so the memory usage may be over 100% when GIMP uses the swap. - The Dashboard dockable dialog now has \"read\" and \"written\" fields in the dashboard swap group, which report the total amount of data read-from/written-to the tile swap, respetively. Additionally, the swap busy indicator (used as the meter\'s LED) has been improved, so that it\'s active whenever data has been read-from/written-to the swap during the last sampling interval, rather than at the point of sampling. - Fonts can now be tagged. The user interface is the same as for brushes, patterns etc. Usability: - When a plug-in cannot be applied to an image because of mismatch in image types (e.g. layer has no alpha or image is greyscale), GIMP now displays a message listing supported image types for this plug-in. Tools: - The Measurement tool now has an \"Auto straighten\" option allowing to rotate the active drawable (layer, channel…) so that the measurement line is used as horizon. As other transform tools, the feature will work on linked drawables as well. - The Smudge tool now paints correctly on images with a color profile other than the GIMP\'s built-in one. Build: - Installer: set compatibility options to run Python plugins in HiDPI-aware mode. - Put back compatibility DLLs for really old plugins. - Install binary tool `gimp-test-clipboard` on the system to allow people to help us debug clipboard bugs. Plug-ins: - gimptool-2.0 binary now accepts source files with non-standard extensions if it can try to guess appropriate language from the compiler being used. It will also properly quote arguments for shell usage. - Run explicitly Python 2 as Python plug-in interpreter to prevent breakage on systems where Python 3 is the default. - raw_input()\'s argument in Python console is now optional, and input() support has been added. File Formats: - The PSD loader now provides an option to load \"merged\", pre-composited version of the images that becomes available when a PSD file was saved with \"Maximize Compatibility\" option enabled in Photoshop. This is useful when loading PSD files that use features that GIMP doesn\'t currently support, and therefore can\'t render correctly, such as adjustment layers. When loading the merged image version, we avoid loading certain additional data from the file, such as channels, paths, and guides, while still loading metadata. This option is currently exposed as an additional file type (\"Photoshop image (merged)\"), which has to be explicitly selected from the file-type list when opening the image. - Embedding GIMP\'s built-in sRGB color profile to exported files is now optional. The default choice can be set in the Preferences dialog. Translations: - Updated translations: Catalan, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Greek, Italian, Polish, Romanian, Spanish, Swedish.
* Sun Apr 29 2018 SauerlandlinuxAATTgmx.de- Update to Version 2.10.1 Core: - CLI option --show-playground visible in --help. - Sample point dockable now works with more than 4 sample points. - Various warnings removed, multi-threading officially not \"experimental\" anymore… - Various fill and fade operations now use the current paint composite mode, allowing for instance filling to paint over transparent areas. - Default layer and paint modes are now Normal (instead of Legacy). - Be smarter about layer modes for new layers. - Get rid of the remaining places that were using the NORMAL_LEGACY mode by default (painting, some more). - Improve painting speed even more by even more evil C++. - Flipping drawables is much faster because it\'s now working tile-by-tile. - Gradient rendering is now much faster, using a cache. Plug-ins: - Ripple plugin removed, compat PDB-API \"plug-in-ripple\" added instead. PDB: - New procedure: gimp-item-transform-translate. - Make gimp-item-transform-
* transform linked items too. - Deprecate gimp-color-balance and gimp-layer-translate. Assets / Resources: - New \"Fun\" category for brushes (moving the \"Pepper\" there, which also gets improved resolution), and adding Wilber and GEGL brushes. - \"Structure\" brush obsoleted. - 5 new and more serious brushes. Translations: - 6 translations were updated: Catalan, Danish, Finnish, Korean, Polish, Swedish.
* Wed Apr 18 2018 SauerlandlinuxAATTgmx.de- Update to Version 2.10.0 RC2 Core: - Symmetries are now preserved in XCF files (saved as image parasites). - New runtime option --show-debug-menu in order to make the File > Debug menu visible. - Do not show invisible actions in search dialog. - Do not dither image mask and channels for imported images. - Various optimizations for painting and display (WIP), including parallelized painting code. - New \"Misc\" group to the Dashboard dock, with currently only a \"Mipmapped\" field showing the total size of processed mipmapped data. - Plug-ins debugging on crashes through --stack-trace-mode CLI option improved to handle more case. - Fix selection -> channel -> selection roundtrips by never doing any gamma conversion when converting between an image\'s selection, channels, masks. Also, make all channels linear in all images with >8bit. Libgimp: - New group \"drawable_edit\" which contains all functions from \"edit\" that are not cut/copy/paste. The new functions have much less arguments and take them from the context instead. The respective functions in \"edit\" have been deprecated. - New functions in \"context\" to configure aspects of gradient drawing, and to set the built-in gradients (the new gradient function in \"drawable_edit\" doesn\'t have a parameter for the gradient type any longer). User interface: - Lighter and Darker themes removed for now, Light and Dark themes rewritten from scratch to get rid of various usability issues and glitches. Only Gray theme from previous set kept as-is. - New GimpToolGyroscope on-canvas control, currently used for the Panorama Projection filter. The widget provides on-canvas interaction for 3D rotation (yaw, pitch, roll). Configurability: - In Preferences > Dialog Defaults, new section \"Filter Dialogs\" created to customize various common features of filters, such as recent settings and advanced color options. - Do not default to last used filter settings, but allow this behavior in Preferences > Dialog Defaults, with checkbox \"Default to the last used settings\". Tools: - Color used in the Smudge tool is now added to the color history. - \"Blend\" tool renamed to much more consistent \"Gradient\" tool. Also it can now work in linear RGB matching capabilities CSS/SVG specification without gamma-errors in color blending and CIE Lab which in addition keeps a perceptual graylevel. Assets / Resources: - Adding 4K UHD in document templates (and fixing 4K DCI). Building: - New --enable-bundled-mypaint-brushes option in configure to decide whether to use the configure-time installation path of MyPaint brushes, or use a path relative to GIMP installation prefix (typically for bundled binaries, such as on Windows or macOS). - Detect freetype2 using pkg-config (`freetype-config` is on its way out in various distributions apparently). - Appdata now installed to $PREFIX/share/metainfo/ Translations: - 8 translations were updated: Arabic, Catalan, Chinese, French, Italian, Polish, Russian, Swedish.
* Fri Feb 16 2018 SauerlandlinuxAATTgmx.de- Update to Version 2.10 RC1 Core: - New dashboard dockable: shows the current GEGL cache and swap sizes and CPU usage and active time, and their recent history. It has options to control the update rate and history duration of the data, and an option to warn (by raising/blinking the dialog) when the swap size approaches its limit. - Make the selection boundary detection the same as 2.8. - The environment variable GIMP_DEBUG can now be set to \"list-all\" to display available debug domains. Non-recognized flags will also trigger the debug flag list output. - Improve migration from 2.8 to 2.10 by recursively migrating configuration files (up to 5 levels, to protect from recursive symbolic links). - Mark legacy plug-ins and scripts in menus. - Enable \"save-tool-options\" and \"save-device-status\" by default, it\'s the expected behavior these days. - GIMP doesn\'t warn anymore for unknown darktable XMP metadata. We now registers the corresponding namespace. - Adding settings for metadata export handling in \"Image Import & Export\" page of Preferences. In particular, metadata are not exported anymore as a default. This is indeed a privacy hazard since metadata often contain a lot of sensitive information. - Splash image now scaled down to maximum 2/3 of the screen area. This will allow to ship a big splash image which will be visible on all type of screens, whichever low or high resolution. Vector splash images are scaled both up or down to have them always at ideal size. - Brightness-Contrast, Curves, Levels and Threshold are now available in \"Repeat last\" history. - Improve action history to not show newly excluded actions (which were already in our history from before the exclusion). - Use GEGL for transform-tools preview, allowing faster and more accurate previews. - Arrange color models in the Color dock (WIP). - New debug tool and infrastructure to handle WARNING and CRITICAL errors, as well as fatal errors (crashes), raising a pop-up with all version information on GIMP and its main dependencies, as well as the error message and backtraces, and encouraging people to make bug reports. - Support layer masks on layer groups. - GIMP now attempts to backup images in the config directory when it crashes. Libgimp: - New gimp_export_exif(), gimp_export_xmp() and gimp_export_iptc() functions returning the creator choice regarding default handling for metadata export (as set in the Preferences). - GIMP Protocol version incremented. - New gimp_get_pdb_status() to return the status of the last PDB call. This is needed for plug-ins which depends on other plug-in\'s procedures. If for instance, a second-level plug-in is interrupted interactively, we don\'t want to process this as an error but as a cancellation. - New gimp_print_stack_trace() and gimp_on_error_query() for debug. GUI and Usability: - New icons: \"gimp-color-space-linear\", \"gimp-color-space-perceptual\", \"gimp-tool-color-temperature\", \"gimp-tool-exposure\", \"gimp-tool-shadows-highlights\". - Switching between linear and perceptual (gamma-corrected) spaces in the Histogram dialog is easier now: two buttons instead of one two-way button where current state was difficult to understand. - Shorten color channel labels in the color frame (color picker tool, sample point editor…) with conventional 1 or 2-letter abbreviations, and split coordinates on 2 lines. - We now switch to \"Huge\" icons by default when the display pixel density is over 250 PPI (used to be 300 PPI). Configurability: - Wilber logo in the toolbox can now be disabled via Preferences (the Toolbox page). Tools: - \"Link brush size with canvas zoom\" paint option becomes \"Lock brush to view\" to make a brush invariant in display space whichever scaling, rotation, and reflection. - Blend tool now displays the line length (in current shell unit and with ideal digit accuracy) and angle in the status bar. - Constrain line angles in display space: all tools which have a line constraint feature (for instance blend tool, paint tools in line mode, etc.) will now do so relatively to the display, allowing you to rotate the canvas in order to constrain to any arbitrary angle. - Levels and Curves can now work on linear light data, the toggles are at the top of respective dialogs, right next to linear/log toggles for the histogram. Filters: - New GEGL-based Shadows-Highlights filter now available in the Colors menu. The implementation is based on the code from darktable. Plug-ins: - Screenshot with the generic Freedesktop API has been implemented. It is meant to replace all desktop environment specific APIs eventually but needs to get reasonable features first. Therefore currently GNOME/KDE and X11 implementations still have priority. - qbist ported to GEGL and float. - Colors for the standard output and standard error texts in the Python console are now themeable, mapping respectively to normal text and insensitive text colors for the \"python-fu-console\" widget. We updated a bit these default colors for our themes. If this is not good enough (for instance, if one has a specific type of color blindness), at least it is now possible to create a custom theme adapted to one\'s needs. - PSD export now happens with progress bar update for feedback. File formats: - Fix various vulnerabilities in file plug-ins: GBR (CVE-2017-17784), PSP (CVE-2017-17787 and CVE-2017-17789), TGA (CVE-2017-17786) and FLI (CVE-2017-17785). - Fix WebP export under Windows. - No more max dimension limitation for X cursors. We still warn when cursor size is over a max limit for X bitmap cursors, but we don\'t clamp anymore on export. - JPEG, PNG, TIFF and WebP export plug-ins updated to honor creator\'s default choice regarding metadata handling. - Fix GIH brushes using different-sized layers. - RGBE (Radiance HDR) format files can now be imported and exported. Building: - poppler and poppler-data now hard dependencies. PDF import is considered a granted feature nowadays and fallbacking to the Postscript plug-in was bad experience. - move PDB generation and sources to toplevel/pdb. - New configure option `--enable-windows-installer` to generate the necessary files for the installer translations during the build. - Improve POTFILES generation for po-
*/ directories. - Require glib >= 2.54.2. - New dependency to mypaint-brushes-1.0 for stable MyPaint brushes available at installation. - AppStream ID renamed from gimp.desktop to org.gimp.GIMP following current convention. Translations: - Windows installer now localized with gettext. - String freeze has started and GIMP received updates from: Basque, Brazilian Portuguese, Catalan, Chinese (Taiwan), Danish, Esperanto, French, German, Greek, Icelandic, Italian, Polish, Rusian, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish.
* Wed Dec 13 2017 SauerlandlinuxAATTgmx.de- Update to Version 2.9.8 Core: - The default brush is now \"Hardness 050\". - Verbose version (command line: gimp -v) now displays C compiler information. - Transform tools don\'t commit identity transformation anymore. - Manual language can now be selected amongst all installed manuals, which is particularly interesting when no GIMP manuals are available in your GUI language. This will be proposed by default when a manual is not installed for the GUI language (alongside the possibility to read online) and the choice can be edited in preferences. - The statusbar now blinks on warnings and errors. - Paste in Place, available for regular clipboard and named buffers, allows pasting contents of either the clipboard a named buffer at the exact coordinates it was copied from. - Color Picker should now work on KDE/Wayland. - Color Picker now reads values under cursor in local windows making it work at least inside GIMP Windows on Wayland platforms with no color-picking capabilities (for instance GNOME/Wayland) yet. - OpenCL is now disabled by default. Depending on graphics cards and drivers, OpenCL acceleration is often slower than multi-threaded implementation, and can also sometimes be \"glitchy\". - Now possible to open a locally-installed manual different from the GUI localization. The manual language choice can be customized through preferences when several manuals are installed. If no manual language has been selected already and no manual for current GUI localization is available, choice of help language will be proposed at first call to the manual. Configurability: - Keybindings now possible for previous/next/top/bottom channel. Usability: - The spinscale widget now highlights vertical parts of the slider section differently to hint that position of cursor above the widget matters. When changing values in the lower step section, the pointer will be wrapped around the screen so that you could continue adjusting the value without interruptions. - Canvas rotation and flip information is now visible in the status bar (as angle value and flip icon). Clicking on these canvas status will respectively raise the \"Select Rotation Angle\" dialog or unflip the canvas. - Use abbreviated versions for long layer mode names. In particular, replace the \"(legacy)\" suffixes with \"(l)\" in the abbreviated versions, still showing the unabbreviated names in the full list. Tools: - Blend tool now features on-canvas gradient editing: adding, shifting, removing color stops, shifting midpoints and converting them to color stops, assignging colors to color stops, changing blending type for midpoints. Additional options: \'Instant mode\' (active before you start blending) to support the old workflow where you can\'t edit color stops before applying the gradient fill, and \'Modify active gradient\' which allows changing user-writable gradients directly rather than creating copies of them. Moreover, custom gradient is now saved and restored across sessions. - All transform tools: it makes no difference now whether a modifier is pressed before of after mouse button press/release. - Free Select tool selection can now be committed with double click as well (only through Enter key before). This allows smoother workflows on some setups, and in particular when no keyboard is available (e.g. tablet-like computers). - Layer group children now inherit the color tags of the parent by default, unless specific color tags are assigned. Inherited color tags show in a less saturated color than assigned ones. Painting: - When copying a generated brush, GIMP now copies its \'Spacing\' property. - Rename \"Wheel\" dynamics labels as \"Wheel/Rotation\". It turns out that Wacom Art Pen and Airbrush pen use the same axis for barrel rotation and wheel scrolling respectively. Therefore they already work in GIMP. \"Unhide\" the feature with more obvious labels. Color management: - Use babl to convert between profiles if possible. Display filters: - New \'Clip Warning\' display filter to show underexposed and overexposed values. Target values below 0 and above 1.0, hence it only works on 16/32 bit per channel float images (such as EXR and TIFF). - Display filters now operate in unbounded sRGB rather than in monitor color space. Plug-ins: - Fix finding raw loaders on Windows/macOS. - Screenshot for KDE/Wayland has been implemented (full-screen and window screenshots only; rectangular area screenshots need implementation on the KDE side). - Screenshot can now add a delay between window pick/rectangular area selection and the actual shot, but only in platforms supporting the feature. File formats: - PSD: - Fix mask position when opening/exporting. - Fix active layer selection during loading. - Fix potential group-layer naming conflict during loading. - Fix missing some attributes loading empty layers. - Fix reading files with deeply nested layer groups. - Load and save layer group expanded state. - Improve layer opacity loading/saving. - PDF: password-protected files can now be imported. - HGT: Digital Elevation Model data from NASA/NIMA can now be loaded, both SRTM-1 (1 arc-second) and SRTM-3 (3 arc-seconds). Filters: - Update GEGL-based filter Wavelet Decompose: - Add an option to keep the decomposition in a layer group. - Add an option to add layer mask to each scales layers. - Do not use \'New from visible\' because it produces unexpected results; replaced by succession of layer copy and merge down. PDB: - Add file-pdf-load2 API to load password-protected and/or multi-page PDF files. - Add file-hgt-load to load HGT files, with aan rgument to select between SRTM-1 and SRTM-3 types. Translations: - Updated: Catalan, Croatian, Galician, German, Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Polish, Russian, Spanish. Building: - Require LittleCMS >= 2.8. - Initial docker-based build environment for GIMP now available. - Warn against use of GCC 7.2 which has a bug breaking GIMP. - An official flatpak stable package is now available on flathub.

* Mon Sep 04 2017 SauerlandlinuxAATTgmx.de- Update to Version 2.9.6 +Core: - Make it possible to use multithreading in GEGL and raise max amount of threads to 64. Given how unstable this feature is, any value a bove 1 should be currently treated as a step inside an industrial microwave oven with the on/off switch on the outside. - New clipboard implementation allows copying/pasting layers and layer groups. - Color tags simplify managing large projects with a lot of layers and layer groups. - The Mouse Pointer dialog and colors applied to images are now color-managed. - Gamma and precision selectors for newly created images. - Never dither when converting to a higher bit depth, or to anything more than 16 bits; don\'t offer dithering options in these cases. - Default to linear TRC when converting to 16-bit float. - Pre-initialize some babl-based pixel format conversion routines at start-up to decrease the initial lazy intialization cost for some interactions. - Remove max size limitation of 4GB for XCF files. - Support clipboard images in the clipboard brush and pattern. - libgimp calls are now thread-safe. +Layers and compositing: - Layer modes\' code is now refactored to separate gamma-corrected variations from the linear light ones, legacy modes have been preserved to support older XCF files. UI to switch between the two is experimental and should be treated as a temporary design. - Blending and compositing of layers are configurable separately for more flexibility now, compositing can be linear TRC, perceptual TRC or CIE LAB. - Layer blending color space and compositing color space are configurable now. - Layers created from the GUI and from plug-ins now default to normal mode (not normal-legacy), unless all the existing layers in the image are also in legacy mode. - New layer modes: linear burn, vivid light, linear light, pin light, hard mix, exclusion, merge, split, luminance (rgb), pass-through (for layer groups only). - Make erase mode an ordinary layer/paint mode. - Better performance of HSV-based layer modes. - Rename \"Color (HSV)\" mode to \"Color (HSL)\" to indicate the actual color space being used. +On-canvas interaction changes: - Refactor on-canvas interaction code out of some of the tools and make it reusable. - Update tools accordingly. - Make on-canvas interaction accessible to GEGL-based filters and use it in the Spiral and Supernova filters as a test case. +GUI and usability: - Easily add or remove layer masks by clicking either the layer preview or a new button in the Layers dialog. - Enhance the Layer Attributes dialog to provide the single UI for setting layer\'s name, blending mode, opacity, and offset, toggling visibility, link status, various locks, color tags. - Add a Save As button to the “Quit GIMP” dialog and raise images on click for easy checks. - Allow to choose fill color when resizing layers and images. - Quick Mask and Channel Attributes dialogs use the new spinscale widget for the mask opacity slider. - Enable grid views of dynamics and tool presets. - Allow to zoom with middle mouse button + control + drag up/down. - For all paint tools, when switching to the color picker mode, don\'t rely on the exact modifier being pressed or released. Instead, check if only the right modifier is pressed after
*each
* modifier change, and switch to color picking if it is. - On startup, GIMP checks for duplicate accelerators in menus, and removes duplicates. - Standard (Freedesktop) and GTK+ icons can now be set by the icon theme for a fully consistent style. - Many new icons. - Toolbox buttons do not grab focus anymore, which used to break usage of the Tab key and other canvas-related shortcuts after changing tools with a pointing device click. - Delete Layer/Channel/Path are consistently the last option in respective dialogs now. - Extend the text along the tangent of the last path stroke, when the length of the path is shorter than the width of the text to be warped. - Allow to toggle the histogram dialog between gamma and linear. - New \'Colors -> Linear Invert\' command to provide radiometrically correct color inversion. - Quit dialog now exits when all the images in the list have been saved. - The built-in error dialog now displays errors outputted by GEGL. - Shift-clicking the visibility icon of a layer in a layer group now toggles its exclusive visibility within this layer group. +Color selection and management: - Add the profile import policy to Preferences -> Import. - Color management for GEGL-based filters is expensive, so it\'s off by default for now, and options are hidden by default too. - Add LCH color selector, with support for gamut checking. - Default to magenta for out-of-gamut color. - Make all script-fu color buttons color-managed. +Configurability: - Remember settings of many dialogs across sessions. - New Interface / Dialog Defaults page in the Preferences dialog to control defaults values of various dialogs. - Settings on some individual pages of the Preferences dialog can be reset separately now. - Vertical scrollbar added to keep the height of the Preferences dialog fitting small displays. - Allow mouse to optionally configure tablet devices - Allow creating shortcuts containing the Cmd key + mouse wheel events. - Default to 300ppi and 1920x1080px for new documents. - Default to 62px font size. - Do not allow Alt+[0-9] shortcuts, they are typically reserved for display switching. - Icons size is now a configurable option, not a theme feature. The icon size is also auto-guessed from monitor resolution now. - It is now possible to have keybindings for previous/next/top/bottom vectors. +Tools: - Complete the Handle Transform tool and make it available by default. - Add Hue-Chroma operation/tool that operates in CIE LCH color space. - Replace Color Balance, Colorize and Hue-Saturation with GEGL-based filters with a custom user interface to ease future transition to non-destructive editing planned for v3.2. Remove the \"Image -> Tools -> Color Tools\" submenu. - The Move tool now shows relative coordinates when moving guides and sample points. - The Measure tool has better digit precision now (before that, at 4000 PPI, up to 7 pixels would show up as 0 mm, then at 0.1 mm from the 8th pixel etc.). - All paint tools now display the angle (relatively to the horizontal line, centered on previously drawn position) alongside distance in status bar when straight line constraining (holding shift when painting). - Performance of the Fuzzy Select and the Bucket Fill tool has been improved. - The Fuzzy Select and the Bucket Fill tool now can select colors by CIE L, C, and H. - Unclutter transform tools: default to \"no grid\", hide the original layer during the interactive transform (except for the Flip tool). - Make the Warp Transform tool faster, add more options, use the linear sampler to ensure crisp lines after an erase. - Select by Color and Color Picker tools work now correctly in color spaces other than sRGB. - Free Select tool now waits for Enter being pressed to confirm selection, which enables you to tweak positions of polygonal selection. - Color Picker doesn\'t snap to anything when picking colors anymore, always draws the outline of the averaged region (not only while the mouse is being pressed), and supports arbitrary range of values regardless of the actual image color precision. - Color Picker now displays pick position (also visible in the Sample Points dialog now), as well as values in CIE LAB and CIE LCH. - Uncommitted selection by the Intelligent Scissors tool is not discarded on tool change anymore. - For Intelligent Scissors, GIMP now checks whether the first and the last isegments are distinct before closing the curve. - Flip tool: add Clipping option to the flip tool. Add support for reflecting across guides: when clicking on a guide while using the Flip tool, reflect the active item across the guide, rather than around its center. +Painting: - The Smudge tool now has a Flow control that allows mixing in both constant and gradient color while smudging. There\'s another new option to never decrease alpha of existing pixels while smudging in the tools options now as well. - Rulers, scrollbars, and the Navigation dialog follow canvas rotation now. - Canvas rotation is now snappier in certain cases. - For bitmap brushes, GIMP now caches hardness and disables dynamic change of hardness to improve painting performance.

* saving 1bpp and 4bpp images (according to palette size).
* loading 2bpp, 2 planes/1bpp, 3 planes/1bpp and 4bpp images.
* non-Black&White monochrome PCX files (any 2 colors according to the palette). - Add support for exporting multi-page PDF from image layers, with optional reversed order. - Add RLE support for RGB565 to in file-csource. +Metadata: - Add new metadata viewer that uses Exiv2 to display Exif, XMP, IPTC, and DICOM metadata (the latter is displayed on the XMP tab). - Add metadata editor that supports adding/editing writing XMP, IPTC, DICOM, and GPS/Exif metadata, as well as loading/exporting metadata from/to XMP files. +Printing: - Print resolution can now be reset to defaults, new values for the same image is actually used now without reloading the image. +Plug-ins: - The Screenshot plug-in now assigns either monitors profile or converts to sRGB. - The Screenshot plug-in can now take screenshots of a single window and include the mouse pointer in the same time (if the desktop/OS allows it). - Port smooth-palette to GEGL. - Enhance the raw (not the digital negative) files plugin: introduce exporting settings and remember them across sessions, make the plugin invokable non-interactively, and more. - Plug-ins can now be installed into first level directories of a plug-ins/ folder. This is in particular to avoid the \"DLL hell\" with shared libraries installed by a plug-in, interfering with other unrelated plug-ins. The entry point file has to be named the same as the directory (minus extension). +Filters: - Add GEGL-based filters: Neon (Edge detection), Wavelet Decompose, Image Gradient, Symmetric Nearest Neighbor, Extract Component, RGB Clip, Simple Linear Iterative Clustering, Waterpixels, Spiral. - Add rotate/flip buttons to the Convolution Matrix filter\'s GUI to rotate/flip the matrix. - For GEGL-based filters, use a new metadata language to dynamically control UI attributes based on context (e.g. auto-disable unapplicable options). - Allow filter actions to have hardcoded default operation settings by encoding them directly in the string attached to all filter actions. +Color Palettes: - Merge Palettes command is available for multiple selected color palettes now. +Assets / Resources: - Some basic presets are available for the Crop tool now: 2x3, 3x4, 16:10, 16x9, and square. - Documents templates have been updated and now feature popular, contemporary document presets for both print and digital media. +PDB: - Rename

* Fri Oct 21 2011 vuntzAATTopensuse.org- Change gimp-2.0-scanner-plugin Recommends to a Suggests: this installs xsane by default, and really, xsane is so horribly broken UI-wise that we don\'t want that.

* Wed Jun 15 2011 vuntzAATTopensuse.org- Fix build on Factory, by not excluding the libcontroller-linux-input.so module from the file list of the main package when we build without hal. It was only excluded to be part of a hal subpackage when there is the hal dependency.

* Fri Jan 07 2011 vuntzAATTopensuse.org- Move ownership from various directories from gimp to libgimp-2_0-0, to not force external gimp plug-ins/modules/etc. to have a gimp BuildRequires for directory ownership.
