In tool-group GimpToolButton tooltips, in addition to showing the
description of the currently-active tool, list the other tools in
the group as well, to improve discoverability.
Add a new GimpAccelLabel widget, which shows an accelerator label
for a given GimpAction. Unlike GtkAccelLabel, GimpAccelLabel
doesn't show a user-provided label in addition to that.
Note that the size request of GtkAccelLabel doesn't include the
accelerator part, which is desirable in some contexts.
GimpAccelLabel doesn't suffer from that.
This implied a lot of other core changes, which also pushed me into
improving some of the edit actions and PDB calls to be multi-layer aware
in the same time.
Note that it is still work-in-progress, but I just had to commit
something in an acceptable intermediate state otherwise I was just going
crazy.
In particular now the various transform tools are multi-layer aware and
work simultaneously on all selected layers (and the linked layers if any
of the selected layers is linked too). Both preview and final transform
processing works.
In the limitations, preview doesn't work well (only one layer in the
preview) when there is a selection (though the actual transform works).
Also I am left to wonder how we should process this case of canvas
selection+transform on multi-layers. Indeed currently I am just creating
a floating selection (like we used to for the selection+transform case)
containing a transform result of the composited version of all selected
layers. This is a possible expected result, but another could be to get
several transformed layers (without composition). But then should the
"Floating Selection" concept allow for multiple Floating Selections?
Sooo many questions left to answer.
The PDB creates the array of drawables as a `const GimpItem *` and the
compiler does not like when we drop the const qualifier. So force this
const dropping with explicit type casting.
This function returns a new list of items from an input list. The output
list will optionally contains linked items if any of the input item is
linked so we don't have to rewrite the same duplicated code for every
feature where item links matter.
Moreover it also filters descendants if any of the input items is an
item group, hence avoiding to apply a transformation twice to a
descendant item.
Use this new function already in 2 places, hence skimming quite a bit of
redundant code.
Proposed by Aryeom to make it more obvious of a possible issue when
running "Alpha to Selection" and ending up with an empty selection
(which is useless hence may means there might have been a problem in
one's workflow).
This warning will also occur for similar actions (i.e. the
Add|Substract|Intersect Alpha to|from|with Selection actions).
Right now I don't change the logics of any of the tools, except that the
GimpTool class now stores a list of drawables instead of a single
drawable. This can be later used on a case-by-case basis to make various
tools actually work on multiple drawables.
This can be used in various places where we want to check whether a
previously saved list of drawables is still the same list of selected
drawables. It used to be easily done with an equality test with a single
active drawable, but not anymore with a list of selected drawables.
Override GimpTool::get_popup() in GimpDrawTool, forwarding the
request to the tool widget, if one exists.
Remove the same code in GimpVectorTool -- this now works for all
tools/widgets.
Partially revert commit c73710e410,
avoiding updating tool widgets unconditionally on tool resume in
GimpDrawTool -- it's too expensive in general.
Instead, handle display-shell changes in GimpToolWidget, by adding
GimpToolWidget::update_on_{scale,scroll,rotate} flags, which
subclasses can use to request an update on any of these events.
Set the flags as necessary for the affected widgets.
In GimpImageProxy, implement GimpColorManaged by forwarding the
functions to the underlying GimpImage, and forwarding the signals
in the other direction. This fixes color-managed view in the
Navigation dockable.
Also layers-flatten-image does not care about the layer selection and
layers-anchor works anyway only when there is a floating selection,
which means only one layer selected.
All selected layers' masks are combined first as union, then the result
is combined with the image selection according to requested boolean
operation.
Also use new gimp_channel_combine_items() function.
Don't just name all alpha-selection actions the same "Alpha to
Selection". Have some more accurate naming like "Substract Alpha from
Selection", etc.
Also improve the action names to make them more accurate as these names
are not only in menus anymore, but also in search actions (and we want
to avoid duplicate naming).
When converting an image to indexed mode, zero-out transparent
pixels instead of leaving junk in their indices, which might well
be out of range of the palette.
I created a new function gimp_channel_combine_items() which combines a
list of items with a channel. The list of items is first combined
together as an union set, then only combined with the channel with the
desired operation (this is important for operations such as intersect
which was broken in my previous commit because all items would be
intersected with each other and the selection, whereas we actually want
the union of all items to be intersected with the selection). This new
function is now used for "Alpha to Selection".
Also similarly to copy or color-pick on multi-layers, alpha to selection
will now use the composited result of the multi-layers as visible. In
particular it means that opacity, modes and visible properties on the
layers are taken into account. Alpha to selection on a single layer
though still works as previously, only taking the non-composited layer
data into account.
I am actually struggling if alpha to selection on uncomposited layers
(just an union on alpha to selection result for each layer) would not
make sense to on some workflows. To be experimented.
Finally it is to be noted that this function should also work on
channels and vectors (both single or multiple; and of course in such
cases, compositing does not matter) though I haven't tested yet. It
could even work with a source mix of layers, channels and vectors,
though our GUI does not allow such action currently.
Wherever we store arbitrary-format colors in an opaque buffer, use
double for the buffer, instead of char, so that it has a strict-
enough alignment to handle all our used pixel formats.
It means forbidding gradient tool to work (with appropriate error
message) on multiple selection. Applying gradient on several layers at
once is not supported at this point.
This fixes:
> GEGL-WARNING: (../../src/gegl/gegl/buffer/gegl-tile.c:127):gegl_tile_dup: runtime check failed: (! src->damage)
Which happened when a GEGL operation was running and you canceled it in
the middle, say with the ESC key (easy to reproduce with long operations
such as "Color to Gray"). In such case, obviously don't try to copy the
unfinished operation result into the dest buffer.
This fixes bugs introduced in commit a7c59277fb where I obviously didn't
properly checked all the places where gimp_selection_float() was used
after its parameters changed.
Multi-drawable selection for text tool only matters for positionning the
newly created text layer, if relevant. If a single layer is selected, it
will be same as before.
With multiple selection, the new layer just ends up to the top in case
of layers from different containers.
Color picking on a single layer still works as it used to. On multiple
layer, it will now pick on the composited color, similarly to sample
merged if only selected layers were made visible.
The PDB/libgimp function gimp_image_pick_color() is also updated to work
on multiple drawables too, giving the same ability to plug-ins (the only
call to this function in core plug-ins have been updated).
When creating a palette out of an image without checking "Sample
Merged", it will now extract the colors out of each individual selected
layers separately. This allows to create palettes even out of all layers
of an image but still considering these individually.
