PDB function gimp_edit_blend() was based on "gimp:shapeburst" operation
whereas the rest of GIMP (in particular, the Blend tool) used
"gegl:distance-transform" which is much faster.
Setting the operation to "manhattan" metric ensures that it still
renders the same way as in 2.8 while being a lot faster.
There was still a problem regarding as how it renders differently from
the Blend tool, but it turns out that the Blend tool is the one
rendering differently from how it used to in 2.8. We should discuss
adding the "metric" property in the tool options.
gimp:buffer-source-validate is a drop-in replacement for
gegl:buffer-source, however, if the attached buffer has a
validating tile-handler, it makes sure the required region is
validated during process(). This avoids a situation in which
validation happens in different worker threads at the same time
during the processing of a succeeding operation; since validation
is protected by the buffer's tile-storage mutex, this can result in
either a deadlock (currently), or an effective fallback to single-
threaded processing.
Update the dprod production of generated enum files to include
abbreviated value descriptions, as per the previous commits.
Add a comment for translators above the abbreviated descriptions,
specifying the full description they abbreviate.
Commit 1e6acbd4e1 modified the
generated enum recipes to run gimp-mkenums from the source
directory, instead of the build directory, so that only the
basenames of the corresponding header files would appear in
the comment at the top of the generated files. This was a
mistake -- $(GIMP_MKENUMS) is expecting to be invoked from the
build directory.
Switch back to running gimp-mkenums from the build directory. To
avoid including the relative path from the build directory to the
source directory in the generated file, add a @basename@ production
variable to gimp-mkenums, which exapnds to the basename of the
input file, and use it instead of @filename@ in the recipes for the
generated enum files.
When regenerating an enum file, don't copy it back to the source
directory if it hasn't actually changed. This allows using a read-
only source directory where the enum header is newer than the
generated file, as long as they're not really out of sync.
OTOH, *do* touch the generated source-dir file even when unchanged,
in order to avoid re-running its recipe on the next build, however,
allow this to silently fail (which is harmless).
We check them into git, so this makes it easier to keep them in
sync when using a separate build directory.
Case in point -- this commit also syncs a few enum files that went
out-of-sync with their headers.
... layers with alpha channel
add an operation that selectively outputs aux
or source if out/inside the rectangle (x,y,width,height),
independently of the alpha channel and use it
in filters split preview.
mostly copied from gimp:mask-components
This operation assigns to each pixel the minimum of the
maxima of all paths from it to the outside, as if the
input image represents a height map, and the operation
floods it with water.
