We need 2 lines in the PDB for it to be an empty line in the C file,
which in turn will be interpreted as markdown-like lists for the
gi-docgen generated HTML docs.
While there are cases when you want to edit the mask straight away (this is
often the case when starting with a white or black mask), in many other cases,
the mask may be already as you want it per its initialization (e.g. when
initializing with a channel, selection, the alpha channel, etc.).
Until now, the Add Mask dialog was always switching to the "Edit Layer Mask"
mode by default, which forced an additional unneeded click each time you created
a mask (and were in a case where you initialize the mask as you want it
directly).
Now adding "Edit mask immediately" feature in the "Add Layer Mask dialog":
* It's checked by default to keep historical behavior.
* As most other dialogs, the last value is remembered, allowing people with
repetitive workflow not to have to repeatedly set the settings each and every
time.
* This default is also visible and settable in Preferences > Interface > Dialog
Defaults.
Not sure what I had in mind with the class method copy() in libgimp
GimpLayer. The core duplicate code already takes care of returning an
object of the right type. Also the GimpTextLayer implementation was not
a perfect copy (only text, font and font size were copied). Now it is
because, again, core has all the duplication code necessary.
Finally this makes this function visible to PDB, hence Script-Fu, again.
The libgimp wrapper was just calling the PDB procedure. Get rid of the
wrapper and make the PDB proc public. Also reorder the name argument to
be in the second place, just like it was for the wrapper.
We had 2 flags to indicate that a PDB argument could be nullable:
null_ok and none_ok. That was a huge mixup and the PDB generation code
was using sometimes one, sometimes the other. Let's settle for only
none_ok.
This fixes a bunch of annotations.
Several types functions were using the wording "float" historically to
mean double-precision, e.g. the float array type (which was in fact a
double array). Or the scanner function gimp_scanner_parse_float() was in
fact returning a double value. What if we wanted someday to actually add
float (usually this naming means in C the single-precision IEEE 754
floating point representation) support? How would we name this?
Now technically it's not entirely wrong (a double is still a floating
point). So I've been wondering if that is because maybe we never planned
to have float and double precision may be good enough for all usage in a
plug-in API (which doesn't have to be as generic so the higher precision
is enough)? But how can we be sure? Also we already had some functions
using the wording double (e.g. gimp_procedure_add_double_argument()), so
let's just go the safe route and use the accurate wording.
The additional change in PDB is internal, but there too, I was also
finding very confusing that we were naming double-precision float as
'float' type. So I took the opportunity to update this. It doesn't
change any signature.
In fact the whole commit doesn't change any type or code logic, only
naming, except for one bug fix in the middle which I encountered while
renaming: in gimp_scanner_parse_deprecated_color(), I discovered a
hidden bug in scanning (color-hsv*) values, which was mistakenly using a
double type for an array of float.
Also:
- renaming gimp_layer_group_new() to gimp_group_layer_new() in order to keep the
same name as in core code (i.e. GimpGroupLayer, not GimpLayerGroup).
- renaming gimp_image_merge_layer_group() to gimp_group_layer_merge()
- new functions: gimp_procedure_add_group_layer_argument(),
gimp_procedure_add_group_layer_aux_argument() and
gimp_procedure_add_group_layer_return_value().
This can be tested, e.g. in Python with these calls:
```py
i = Gimp.get_images()[0]
g = Gimp.GroupLayer.new(i, "hello")
i.insert_layer(g, None, 1)
g2 = Gimp.GroupLayer.new(i, "world")
i.insert_layer(g2, g, 1)
g.merge()
```
This was work started long ago, stored in an old stash which I finally
finish now! :-)
All babl formats now have a space equivalent to a color profile,
determining the format's primaries and TRCs. This commit makes GIMP
aware of this.
libgimp:
- enum GimpPrecision: rename GAMMA values to NON_LINEAR and keep GAMMA
as deprecated aliases, add PERCEPTUAL values so we now have LINEAR,
NON_LINEAR and PERCPTUAL for each encoding, matching the babl
encoding variants RGB, R'G'B' and R~G~B~.
- gimp_color_transform_can_gegl_copy() now returns TRUE if both
profiles can return a babl space, increasing the amount of fast babl
color conversions significantly.
- TODO: no solution yet for getting libgimp drawable proxy buffers in
the right format with space.
plug-ins:
- follow the GimpPrecision change.
- TODO: everything else unchanged and partly broken or sub-optimal,
like setting a new image's color profile too late.
app:
- add enum GimpTRCType { LINEAR, NON_LINEAR, PERCEPTUAL } as
replacement for all "linear" booleans.
- change gimp-babl functions to take babl spaces and GimpTRCType
parameters and support all sorts of new perceptual ~ formats.
- a lot of places changed in the early days of goat invasion didn't
take advantage of gimp-babl utility functions and constructed
formats manually. They all needed revisiting and many now use much
simpler code calling gimp-babl API.
- change gimp_babl_format_get_color_profile() to really extract a
newly allocated color profile from the format, and add
gimp_babl_get_builtin_color_profile() which does the same as
gimp_babl_format_get_color_profile() did before. Visited all callers
to decide whether they are looking for the format's actual profile,
or for one of the builtin profiles, simplifying code that only needs
builtin profiles.
- drawables have a new get_space_api(), get_linear() is now get_trc().
- images now have a "layer space" and an API to get it,
gimp_image_get_layer_format() returns formats in that space.
- an image's layer space is created from the image's color profile,
change gimpimage-color-profile to deal with that correctly
- change many babl_format() calls to babl_format_with_space() and take
the space from passed formats or drawables
- add function gimp_layer_fix_format_space() which replaces the
layer's buffer with one that has the image's layer format, but
doesn't change pixel values
- use gimp_layer_fix_format_space() to make sure layers loaded from
XCF and created by plug-ins have the right space when added to the
image, because it's impossible to always assign the right space upon
layer creation
- "assign color profile" and "discard color profile" now require use
of gimp_layer_fix_format_space() too because the profile is now
embedded in all formats via the space. Add
gimp_image_assign_color_profile() which does all that and call it
instead of a simple gimp_image_set_color_profile(), also from the
PDB set-color-profile functions, which are essentially "assign" and
"discard" calls.
- generally, make sure a new image's color profile is set before
adding layers to it, gimp_image_set_color_profile() is more than
before considered know-what-you-are-doing API.
- take special precaution in all places that call
gimp_drawable_convert_type(), we now must pass a new_profile from
all callers that convert layers within the same image (such as
image_convert_type, image_convert_precision), because the layer's
new space can't be determined from the image's layer format during
the call.
- change all "linear" properties to "trc", in all config objects like
for levels and curves, in the histogram, in the widgets. This results
in some GUI that now has three choices instead of two.
TODO: we might want to reduce that back to two later.
- keep "linear" boolean properties around as compat if needed for file
pasring, but always convert the parsed parsed boolean to
GimpTRCType.
- TODO: the image's "enable color management" switch is currently
broken, will fix that in another commit.
It never belonged inside "tools". Also rename its "pdb" subdirectory
to "groups". This had to happen before 2.10 so cherry-picking between
branches doesn't become a nightmare in the future.
