Changelog for rawtherapee-5.5-7.1.i686.rpm :

* Mon Dec 17 2018 Marcin Bajor - Update to 5.5- New features since 5.4
* Filter to remove striping artifacts caused by Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF) as seen in Sony cameras, and to remove banding artifacts caused by Nikon\'s too-aggressive in-camera PDAF correction. These are available for any camera which has a PDAF entry in camconst.json, currently: Nikon Z 6, Nikon Z 7, Sony DSC-RX1RM2, Sony ILCE-6000, Sony ILCE-6300, Sony ILCE-6500, Sony ILCE-7M3, Sony ILCE-7RM2, Sony ILCE-7RM3, Sony ILCE-9
* Ability to specify custom working color spaces through the workingspaces.json file.
* Unbounded processing - allows you to decide whether out-of-gamut colors should get clipped.
* Improved support for Canon mRaw format variants.
* New Shadows/Highlights tool (replaced previous one).
* Contrast threshold mask which divides an image into areas of high and low detail, allowing the effect of certain tools to be focused where it matters most and to mitigate the effect on areas where it would be undesirable, for example having the Sharpening tool affect only the in-focus subject without affecting the out-of-focus background. Available for: Sharpening, Post-Resize Sharpening, Microcontrast, Demosaicing
* Dual-demosaic algorithms, making use of the new contrast threshold mask, allowing one to use a combination of demosaicing algorithms where one is best for details and the other best for plain areas.
* New color toning methods: Grid, allowing you to separately tone the shadows and highlights using two points on a simple color grid. Regions, allowing you to tone based on any number of masks. Supports functions from the American Society of Cinematographers Color Decision List (ASC CDL).
* Resizable main histogram with scaling modes: Linear, Log, Log-Log The log scales can be adjusted by click-dragging the mouse sideways inside the histogram area.
* Support for Blackmagic and Canon Magic Lantern lj92 encoded files.
* Allows you to specify how many border rows/columns to discard during demosaicing - those who shoot raw video at a standard resolution such as 1920x1080 will appreciate being able to preserve the dimensions.
* New Soft Light tool which enhances contrast and saturation by emulating the effect of blending an image with a copy of itself in \"soft light\" blending mode in GIMP.
* The Resize tool allows you to specify whether you want it to upscale or only downscale.
* New icon and cursor theme.
* ICC
* The bundled ICC profiles have been re-generated, and now include ICC v2 and v4 variants.
* If your screen\'s resolution is such that not all icons fit in a toolbar, you can now scroll the toolbar using the mouse scroll-wheel.
* New \"Flexible\" tone curve type. A characteristic of the cubic spline curve (renamed from \"Custom\" to \"Standard\") is that editing one node could have a huge impact on what happens to the curve in relation to the other nodes. The new \"Flexible\" centripetal Catmull–Rom spline curve allows you to make adjustments to any part of the curve with little impact on the other parts.
* Allow saving both floating-point and integer type files at both 16-bit and 32-bit precision from RawTherapee GUI and CLI.
* Improved lensfun chromatic aberration correction.
* The raw chromatic aberration correction tool can now run in several iterations, and gained a feature to avoid introducing a color shift which could result from correcting chromatic aberration before demosaicing.
* Certain sliders now operate on a logarithmic scale, allowing for a meaningful response over large ranges.
* Dedicated \"Reset\" button in Crop tool.
* Support for new cameras, and new input color profiles.
* Speed enhancements and bug fixes, for a total of over 1300 commits.
* Wed Mar 21 2018 marcin.bajorAATTgmail.com- Update to 5.4- New features since 5.3
* New default processing profiles, now the default look for raw photos closely matches the out-of-camera look with regard to tones and includes lens distortion and vignetting correction.
* New histogram matching tool, to have RawTherapee automatically adjust the image for you to match the out-of-camera look with a single click of a button.
* New HDR Tone Mapping tool to compress the light in scenes with a high dynamic range, allowing you to show details in both shadows and highlights in a realistic way.
* New Local Contrast tool to boost clarity using a simple interface.
* New color toning method L
*a
*b
* Color Correction Grid.
* New RCD demosaicing algorithm to minimize artifacts even with artificial lighting and strong chromatic aberration.
* New thumbnail overlay icons in the File Browser and Filmstrip to help you distinguish normal images from HDR and Pixel Shift ones.
* Added support for showing out-of-gamut areas based on the output profile.
* Added support for reading and writing metadata and ICC profiles to and from PNG images.
* Added support for processing Sony Pixel Shift ARQ raw files - make sure that the ARQ extension is enabled in Preferences > File Browser > Parsed Extensions.
* Create Sony ARQ raw files using https://github.com/agriggio/make_arq
* Added support for saving 32-bit floating-point TIFFs clamped to [0;1].
* Added profiled chromatic aberration correction support using Lensfun.
* More tools now have an on/off switch.
* The user interface is cleaner, with all power-house tools moved into a new \"Advanced\" tab to prevent slider-shock to newcomers.
* The Metadata tab now lets you choose whether you want to copy metadata unchanged, edit metadata or strip metadata when saving images. Now you can also make metadata changes in batch mode.
* The choice of whether the main histogram should display information using the working profile or the output profile is now available from the Editor tab\'s top toolbar.
* The Crop tool\'s aspect ratio now defaults to that of the image, and RawTherapee automatically zooms-to-fit the crop once it\'s placed.
* RGB input-type ICC profiles can now be used as output profiles.
* The saved reference image for profiling (created from within the Color Management tool) now contains metadata.
* PNG and compressed TIFF images make use of better compression.
* Shortcut key changes: Zoom-to-fit the crop using \"f\", fit the whole image using \"Alt+f\".
* Sat Sep 30 2017 marcin.bajorAATTgmail.com- Update to 5.3- New features since 5.2
* CIECAM02 enhanced with control over the scene and viewing conditions.
* CIECAM02-friendly \"Average Surround\" color theme and L
* middle gray preview background color, takes into account human vision and color appearance with regard to the surrounding color.
* Manually save the collapsed/expanded state of tools.
* Lensfun support, for automatic (and manual) profiled lens correction.
* ACES, DCI-P3 Theater and DCI-P3 D65 output color profiles.
* Numerous speed optimizations and bug fixes.
* Sun Jul 23 2017 marcin.bajorAATTgmail.com- Update to 5.2- New Features since 5.1
* GIMP plugin to open raw images in GIMP using RawTherapee - see RawPedia.
* \"Remote\" mode (-R command line option) to allow opening images (\"Open with\" or passed as arguments) in a full-fledged instance. The -R mode allows you to open an image in an already-running instance of RawTherapee, if that instance was also started using -R. Opening an image without the -R option will open RawTherapee in \"no-File-Browser\" mode which lacks the File Browser and Queue tabs, and the Preferences button.
* Added DCP profiles for accurate color for: FUJIFILM X-T20- Most significant improvements
* 4x speedup of the Microcontrast tool.
* CIECAM02 curves no longer cause a sudden jump in brightness.
* Improved stability in METM (Multiple Editor Tabs Mode) in Windows.
* Improvement to the MEOW (Multiple Editor Tabs in Own Window) mode.
* LCP files lead to better results.
* Large speedup and stability improvement when opening folders containing hundreds or thousands of images.
* Many memory leaks fixed.
* Pixel Shift speedups, reduction of memory requirements, and motion mask preview accuracy improved.
* The preview of the Tone Mapping tool is now much more accurate at any zoom level.
