Our Preferences exposes a concept of "Preferred color profile" (for RGB,
grayscale and CMYK), which is used in some places to be proposed as
default alternative to built-in profiles. But it was not used in the
import color profile dialog (only 2 choices were: keep the image profile
or convert to built-in RGB).
This commit now adds this third choice, which is even made default when
hitting the "Convert" button directly, without tweaking with the dialog.
Because we can assume that if someone made the explicit choice to label
such a profile as "Preferred", this is more likely the one to convert to
(if one even wants to convert from an embedded profile anyway).
As for the `Preferences > Image Import & Export > Color profile policy`,
they now propose 4 choices: Ask, Keep embedded profile, Convert to
built-in or preferred profiles.
Orientation is now handled by core code, just next to profile conversion
handling.
One of the first consequence is that we don't need to have a non-GUI
version gimp_image_metadata_load_finish_batch() in libgimp, next to a
GUI version of the gimp_image_metadata_load_finish() function in
libgimpui. This makes for simpler API.
Also a plug-in which wishes to get access to the rotation dialog
provided by GIMP without loading ligimpui/GTK+ (for whatever reason)
will still have the feature.
The main advantage is that the "Don't ask me again" feature is now
handled by a settings in `Preferences > Image Import & Export` as the
"Metadata rotation policy". Until now it was saved as a global parasite,
which made it virtually non-editable once you checked it once (no easy
way to edit parasites except by scripts). So say you refused the
rotation once while checking "Don't ask again", and GIMP will forever
discard the rotation metadata without giving you a sane way to change
your mind. Of course, I could have passed the settings to plug-ins
through the PDB, but I find it a lot better to simply handle such
settings core-side.
The dialog code is basically the same as an app/dialogs/ as it was in
libgimp, with the minor improvement that it now takes the scale ratio
into account (basically the maximum thumbnail size will be bigger on
higher density displays).
Only downside of the move to the core is that this rotation dialog is
raised only when you open an image from the core, not as a PDB call. So
a plug-in which makes say a "file-jpeg-load" PDB call, even in
INTERACTIVE run mode, won't have rotation processed. Note that this was
already the same for embedded color profile conversion. This can be
wanted or not. Anyway some additional libgimp calls might be of interest
to explicitly call the core dialogs.
After discussions on IRC, it was decided that our current level of
support of OpenCL was not good enough. As a normal settings, people just
see it as a normal acceleration checkbox, even despite the warning text
and emoticone saying the opposite (i.e. it may even slow things down in
some cases).
Basically this feature needs more love to be back into mainstream
Preferences.
In other dialogs, it is not a revert to how it was before opening the
dialog, but a reset to default settings.
To just revert to dialog opening values, we can just use "Cancel" and
reopen the dialog (a bit cumbersome, but not something done often
anyway).
Currently what "Reset" does is to set back the device mode and any
customized axe curve. It doesn't touch customized keys, but these will
disappear anyway in a further commit.
Rather than the "Save" and "Close" buttons which were very weird, if not
misleading. When Aryeom was giving a course to students, several thought
the buttons were broken because "nothing happened" when clicking "Save".
So instead, "OK" will just save and exit (equivalent to click "Save"
then "Close" on old GUI) as it is the common usage and should be doable
in a single click.
"Cancel" closes while resetting to how the settings were before opening
the dialog.
Finally "Reset" just reset the settings to how they were before opening,
without closing the dialog.
This also makes the buttons look/behave like the ones on Preferences,
which is nice consistency-wise too.
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.
Multi selection actually only really matter when "Merge within active
groups only" option is checked, in which case we are able to merge
layers within several layer groups simultaneously, and end up with
multi-selected merged layers.
Also not sure why both layers-merge-layers and image-merge-layers exist,
as they are exactly the same (exact same callback called when
activated).
These actions raise a GimpViewableDialog. For this to work, I made this
widget work with a list of GimpViewable, not a single viewable anymore
(so maybe the widget class name should change?).
When this list contains only a single GimpViewable, it will display
exactly like before, with a viewable preview. With several viewables,
the preview won't show.
This allows to add masks to all selected layers at once, with the same
basic options for all masks, as set in the dialog.
Though it's not finished yet, I am changing "active layer" into
"selected layers" logics. Probably the "active layer" concept will be
back eventually (i.e. even in a multi-selection a specific layer could
be said "active", highlighted in the list a bit differently, hence one
could edit this specific layer only). But for simplicity, for now, it's
better to first get rid of it, otherwise it's just messy.
This whole drag'n drop code is quite overwhelming, I'm pretty sure this
commit introduced various bugs, and there are already several areas of
improvements I noticed. But at some point, I need to split at a not-too
broken code state or I'll just make things worse.
I wanted to enable it in the end, but it makes my work tree messy. Just
commit this now. Multi-selection basically works but there are still a
lot of broken features which are to be taken care of one by one.
Only enabled for layer tree so far.
After discussing with Schumaml and Houz on IRC, let's just drop the
generic comment which may be confusing and is probably unecessary,
especially now that I write the revision number (present and new ones).
So let's just assume people understand that they should update, even
when GIMP version stays the same (this was the case I was the most wary
about, that people think the notification is an error as since they have
the last version, they don't have to update GIMP).
I hesitated to at least leave just the simple "It is recommended to
update." sentence but after much hesitation, let's go with no generic
comment at all. The download button by itself should suffice.
Of course, when a specific revision comment is set in
gimp_versions.json, it is still displayed.
- Instead of the download link being just a link button (similar to
browser "blue text" links), make it a proper button encompassing the
update icon and the download text "Download GIMP X.Y.Z".
- Make also the revision number part of the download information.
- Frame title is now "Update available!" instead of "New version
available!" (because it's not necessarily a new version, it can also
be just a package revision. "Update" is more generic).
- When no update is available, the "Check for updates" button is big and
has a label, and also now an icon. When an update is available, hence
we display now a button for the download link, the "Check for updates"
button becomes small with icon only in order not to take visual
priority over the download itself (yet allowing to re-check for even
newer information).
As noted on IRC, after the first update check on a given day, it looks
like the check button does nothing. Therefore also display the check
time to clearly show the button click was taken into account (simply
there are no updates, hence only displayed check time is updated).
When checking for updates, write the new timestamp and version info
to Gimp::edit_config, instead of Gimp::config, and rely on its
auto-save mechanism to save the changes, in order to avoid having
to save Gimp::config on exit, which overrides modified settings
that require a restart, such as the UI language, as they are only
reflected in Gimp::edit_config.
This fixes the bug, but can cause the new update info to be
discarded if the Preferences dialog is open while checking for
updates, and is subsequently canceled. Ideally, the update info
should live in a separate file, rather than in gimprc.
Allow horizontal scrollbars in all the Preferences dialog tree-
views, so that they don't limit the minimal width of the dialog (in
particular, the UI- and icon-theme tree-views may contain
arbitrarily-long paths).
If for instance you've got no internet connection or other reasons that
a check might fail, the check-update-timestamp will be 0, which is
1970-01-01.
Thanks to Alexandre Prokoudine for noticing it!
Even when we already notify of an update, we should leave the ability to
query the last gimp_versions.json manually.
It would allow also people who disabled automatic check at startup
(whether through preferences or because the build disabled the feature
altogether) to still make update checks, and to not be forever stuck
with the result of an outdated version check.
The idea is to be able to advertize a new revision of the same version
of GIMP. For instance, this would apply when we release a
`gimp-2-10-14-setup-3.exe` Windows installer (then we are at revision
3, provided we started at revision 0).
The revision number is obviously only relevant to a given platform and
version. Also the concept of build ID allows to differentiate various
builds for a same platform, in particular to not look at revisions of
third-party builds. The build ID can be any string. Maybe we could just
use reverse DNS build id (such as "org.gimp.GIMP_official") to identify
the official GIMP build. So in the end, we only compare revisions for an
identical (version, platform, build-id) tuple.
Add a new "Snap brush outline to stroke" toggle to the "Image
Windows" preferences page. When enabled, the brush outline in
paint tools snaps to the individual dabs while painting, instead of
following the cursor precisely (this is the existing behavior).
When disabled, the brush outline follows the cursor while painting
in the same way it does while not painting.
Disable the option by default. This seems to be what most other
programs are doing, and it does give paitning a smoother feel.
Add a new Gimp::tool_item_ui_list, which is a GimpTreeProxy over
Gimp::tool_item_list. This allows us to use either a hierarchical
or a flat tool list in the UI, by setting the "flat" property of
the new list.
Use Gimp::tool_item_ui_list in GimpToolPalette, so that the toolbox
layout is affected by this choice.
Add a "Use tool groups" toggle to the toolbox preferences, and bind
it to the "flat" property of Gimp::tool_item_ui_list.
Add tool-group support to GimpToolEditor, used to organize tools in
the Preferences dialog, including creating, rearranging, and
deleting groups. Also, major cleanup.
gimp_int_radio_group_new() was still complaining about the scope of
radio_button_callback(). Make it (scope notified) because it needs to
stay alive after the function returns and may be called multiple times.
Also adding a GDestroyNotify to free the callback data once the widget
is destroyed (additionally it will also serve as a notifier for bindings
to properly free the callback closure itself, not only it's data).
With this last one done, GObject Introspection generation now happens
without any warning output.
Add a new 3D Transform tool, based on GimpToolTransform3DGrid,
added in the previous commit. The tool UI provides a notbook with
three tabs, corresponding to the three GimpToolTransform3DGrid
modes:
Camera - allows setting the primary vanishing point, as well as
the camera's focal length, expressed either directly, or as the
camera's angle of view, relative to the whole image or the
transformed item. By default, the vanishing point is aligned
with the item's center, and the angle of view is fixed relative
to the item; this essentially means that each item is transformed
using a local perspective, independent of its position and size
relative to the image. A global perspective can be achieved by
using a common vanishing point and focal length (or an image-
relative angle of view).
Move - allows moving the item using X, Y, and Z offsets.
Rotate - allows rotating the item using X, Y, and Z Euler angles.
The order of rotation of the different axes can be controlled by
a set of numbered buttons next to the sliders, and the rotation's
pivot can be controlled using a pivot selector.
Instead of making the focus on bug reporting, the debug dialog will now
make the focus on updating the application if it is found that one is
not using the last version.
Debug data (backtraces and co.) will still be available and copiable,
but under an expander, and bug report button won't be displayed (i.e.
data will still be available upon request but we don't push anymore
people to submit it directly if they are using old versions of GIMP).
Of course, if you are using the last version (or version check was not
possible), the dialog still stays the same.
When an update is available, a big frame is visible, proposing to go to
the download page. Now a button is also available to explicitly request
for an update check in other cases (bypassing the wait delay for a
future startup).
I was wondering which shape should take the new version notification
(again some ugly pop-up?!) and realized using the About dialog was a
good idea.
This is preparatory work for this to happen.
GIMP will now process the remote gimp_versions json file to look if one
is using the last version of GIMP. This initial code doesn't act up yet
on this information. This will come in further commits.
Here are the characteristics:
- Since this requires internet access, a new checkbox is available in
the Preferences dialog, allowing to disable version checks. Note that
it is enabled by default as it is an important security feature, but
it has to be deactivatable.
- The remote access is done as an async operation because we don't want
it to block the startup in any way (for whatever reason). Also it
doesn't output errors if it fails to not be a bother (you don't
technically need internet access for an image program).
- We don't check at every startup. At each successful check, we save a
timestamp to prevent too frequent useless checks (I set it the timer
to a week or more for now).
export it to libgimp via GPConfig and add new API gimp_export_comment().
Bump the protocol version and improve variable names in both GPConfig
and libgimp/gimp.c.
and remove a gazillion gtk_widget_show() all over the place, some
places need a gtk_widget_hide() now, and I'm pretty sure I broke at
least one thing in all those files...
Add a new "Swap compression" option to the preferences, allowing
explicit control over the tile-swap compression algorithm.
Previously, control over swap compression was only possible through
GEGL command-line options/environment variables. Since the GEGL
API to list all available compression algorithms is still private
for now, we currently only list the three predefined compression
levels -- "best performance" (the default), "balanced", and "best
compression" -- and a "none" option, to disable compression
altogether. Selecting a custom compression algorithm is possible
by entering its name manually.
Add an option to keep the normal canvas padding in "show all" mode,
instead of extending the checkerboard pattern indefinitely. This
is useful when wanting to show the image content beyond the canvas,
while still keeping the focus on the canvas; further commits will
extend this mode to behave in more view-related cases as if "show
all" wasn't enabled.
Add a new 'View -> Padding Color -> Keep Padding in "Show All"
Mode" toggle, which controls this behavior, with a corresponding
default-value option in the preferences, under "Image Windows ->
Appearance".
It's an ancient concept from ancient times when we didn't have URIs
and only filenames (not to speak of GFile), and actually even from
before the ancient time before that ancient time when we first had
ones and zeros, and only had zeros.
paste as brush, paste as pattern, select to new brush, select to new pattern
fill selection outline, fill path, stroke selection, distort, rounded rectangle
indexed color conversion, merge visible layers, new guide, new guide (by percent)
image properties, newsprint, fractal explorer, sample colorize, new layer
metadata editor (just a button), spyroplus (only common buttons)
Add a "show canvas boundary" display option, and a corresponding
"View" menu item and default-apperance preferences option. When
enabled (the default), the canvas boundary is shown as an orange/
black dashed line in "show all" mode.
Add a "show all" mode to GimpDisplayShell, controlled through a
corresponding "View -> Show All" menu item. When enabled, the
entire image content is displayed, instead of cropping the image
to the canvas size. More generally, the display behaves as if the
canvas were infinite. The following commits improve the overall
behavior in this mode.
Add a prefernces option to control the default "show all" state.
Step one: get rid of all those deprecation warnings that make
it hard to see any other warnings:
- add a lot of dummy API to GimpAction, GimpActionGroup, GimpUIManager
etc. which simply forwards to the deprecated GTK functions, they
will all go away again later
- rename GimpAction to GimpActionImpl
- add interface GimpAction that is implemented by all action classes,
creates a common interface and allows to remove some duplicated
logic from GimpToggleAction and GimpRadioAction, and at the same
time adds more features
file_open_location_response(): guard against g_file_new_for_uri()
returning NULL (which it shouldn't) and an error being NULL (which it
shouldn't either for the same reason). Spotted by Massimo.
...doesn't work
Rename the labels to "built-in sRGB color profile" and "built-in
grayscale color profile" because that's what the option does, it never
converted to the preferred profiles from preferences.
Add a "gboolean edge_lock" parameter to GimpChannel::feather() and a
"Selected areas continue outside the image" toggle to the "Feather
Selection" dialog, just like they exist for shrink selection and
border selection. At the end, convert the boolean to the right abyss
policy for gegl:gaussian-blur.
Add a new Offset filter tool, as a front-end to gimp:offset. The
tool replaces, and provides the same interface as, the drawable-
offset dialog, while also providing live preview and on-canvas
interaction.
Note that we don't simply use a custom propgui constructor for
gimp:offset, since we need a little more control.
There should never be an image using GIMP_TRC_PERCEPTUAL, but things
should work if one is encountered anyway.
In the Image -> Precision menu and the Convert Precision dialog, have
menu items / radio buttons for both non-linear and perceptual, but
hide the perceptual choice unless the image is in perceptual TRC mode.
This should eliminate the possibility to create perceptual TRC images
from the GUI.
...to the Configure Keyboard Shortcuts dialog
Add the button, based on an old patch from Sven Neumann, and make the
buttons in the keyboard shortcuts and input devices dialogs look and
behave the same.
In gimp_open_dialog_set_image(), use a weak pointer for storing the
current image, to avoid a segfault in file_open_dialog_response()
if the active image at the time of the open action has been closed
before confirming the dialog.
This is useful to be able to support file formats other than image
formats. In particular I will use this in the next commit to support a
"GIMP extension" format. When GIMP will open such file, it will
install an extension (not open an image on canvas).
This is an internal flag only, i.e. only usable from core GIMP. File
formats which a plug-in can register are still only image file formats.
When loading indexed images, the image type is not obvious at all
(basically only reference is in the title bar). The main issue is that
if you don't realize it when editing, GIMP appear broken when the
expected colors don't appear on canvas.
Commit e48c239459 was a first step by showing various color widgets with
out-of-gamut warnings contextually. This additional commits will also
allows color selection for painting tools (i.e. foreground and
background colors) to be done within the image palette by default. This
way, the fact that this image impose working with limited color palette
is obvious as soon as you try to edit colors.
In gimp_image_merge_layers() -- the internal function used by the
various layer-merging/flattenning functions -- process the merged-
layer graph in chunks, using gimp_gegl_apply_operation(), instead
of in one go, using gegl_node_blit_buffer(). Processing in chunks
better utilizes the cache, since it reduces the size of
intermediate buffers, reducing the chances of hitting the swap when
merging large images (see, for example, issue #3012.)
Additionally, this allows us to show progress indication. Have the
relevant gimpimage-merge functions take a GimpProgress, and pass it
down to gimp_image_merge_layers(). Adapt all callers.
We were doing it all the wrong way, fixing one combo box object at a
time. So this commit basically reverses commits 68a33ab5bd, 6dfca83c2a
and a9a979b2d0 and instead runs the same code in the class code. This
way, all objects based on these base classes will have the fix from
scratch.
These improved various other drop-down lists (I found some of them, and
probably not all) as I fixed all GIMP custom widgets based on
GtkComboBox.
Note that it has to be run after filling the list apparently (I had the
problem especially with GimpIntComboBox if running in the _init() code,
then the list widget showed wrong).
...closing this image while the file is being loaded
Ref the image around all calls to file_open_layers() and
gimp_image_add_layers() so it stays around even if the user closes the
display in the meantime.
This commit completely removes the "Edit -> Fade..." feature,
because...
- The main reason is that "fade" requires us to keep two buffers,
instead of one, for each fadeable undo step, doubling (or worse,
since the extra buffer might have higher precision than the
drawable) the space consumed by these steps. This has notable
impact when editing large images. This overhead is incurred even
when not actually using "fade", and since it seems to be very
rarely used, this is too wasteful.
- "Fade" is broken in 2.10: when comitting a filter, we copy the
cached parts of the result into the apply buffer. However, the
result cache sits after the mode node, while the apply buffer
should contain the result of the filter *before* the mode node,
which can lead to wrong results in the general case.
- The same behavior can be trivially achieved "manually", by
duplicating the layer, editing the duplicate, and changing its
opacity/mode.
- If we really want this feature, now that most filters are GEGL
ops, it makes more sense to just add opacity/mode options to the
filter tool, instead of having this be a separate step.
Move swap/cache and temporary files out the GIMP user config dir:
libgimpbase: add gimp_cache_directory() and gimp_temp_directory()
which return the new default values inside XDG_CACHE_HOME and the
system temp directory. Like all directories from gimpenv.[ch] the
values can be overridden by environment variables. Improve API docs
for all functions returning directories.
Add new config file substitutions ${gimp_cache_dir} and
${gimp_temp_dir}.
Document all the new stuff in the gimp and gimprc manpages.
app: default "swap-path" and "temp-path" to the new config file
substitutions. On startup and config changes, make sure that the swap
and temp directories actually exist.
In the preferences dialog, add reset buttons to all file path pages.
file_save(): make sure we always set an error on failure
file_save_dialog_save_image(): additionally, check that "error" exists
before dereferencing it.
A single icon theme can contain both regular and symbolic icons. Let's
give possibility to switch from one style to the other within GIMP
Preferences.
This won't work very well in all cases yet, especially if an icon theme
only has symbolic icons (and no regular ones) because of inconsistencies
in glib which are being fixed (patches which I submitted and which were
merged in glib on 2018-08-17).
So this will work as expected when we will bump our glib requirement to
whatever is the next release.
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.
Add a gimp-register-file-handler-priority procedure, which can be
used to set the priority of a file-handler procedure. When more
than one file-handler procedure matches a file, the procedure with
the lowest priority is used; if more than one procedure has the
lowest priority, it is unspecified which one of them is used. The
default priority of file-handler procedures is 0.
Add the necessary plumbing (plus some fixes) to the plug-in manager
to handle file-handler priorities. In particular, use two
different lists for each type of file-handler procedures: one meant
for searching, and is sorted according to priority, and one meant
for display, and is sorted alphabetically.
The extension dialog will show details about an extension (long
description, screenshot, upstream URLs, etc.) with this widget.
Update the GimpExtensionList to send a "extension-activated" signal on
double click, and make the extensions dialog react on it to display the
extension details for the activated extension.
This is all still mostly a skeleton GUI, but it is starting to get into
shape.
This is using GTK+3 widgets, so I make sure to keep it well separated
from core code. The gimp-2-10 version will have to rework the GUI, but
the GtkListBox and GtkSwitch are nice and make things easier, so it is
worth using them here).
Preview generation for layer groups is more expensive than for
other types of drawables, mostly since we can't currently generate
layer-group previews asynchronously. Add a preferences option for
enabling layer-group previews separately from the rest of the
layer/channel previews; both of these options are enabled by
default. This can be desirable regardless of performance
considerations, since it makes layer groups easily distinguishable
from ordinary layers.
In the preferences dialog, make the "dither images when promoting
to floating point" option insensitive when the "promote impoprted
images to floating point precision" option is unchecked.
...upon exporting an image
Step 1: make it configurable just like "Export EXIF" etc.
app, libgimp: add "export-color-profile" config option
Add it to the preferences dialog, and pass it on to plug-ins in the
GPConfig message. Add gimp_export_color_profile() to libgimp.
Nothing uses this yet.
resize_dialog_new(): create the preview with "popup = TRUE", so we
really get a preview of layer size and not of the layer within the
image context like used for the layers dialog.
Also remove all traces of it from the plug-in protocol and raise the
protocol version to 0x0100 (we now allow features and therefore
version bumps in stable, and the master protocol version should always
be higher). Fix the code that aborts plug-in startup on protocol
version mismatch, we can't use gimp_message() because we have no
protocol.
With GTK+3, high or low density is taken care by the screen scale
factor. Having a separate preferences for this is redundant, and likely
even wrong.
It may be interesting though to have a new preference later, which would
allow smaller scale icon sizing since some people like their icon
slightly smaller or bigger, and also when you are using screens whose
density is at a limit scale factor. Right now, this can be done through
themes, but a GUI settings may be interesting. If I add such feature,
let's just do it from scratch later.
Use a cairo surface with scale factor in the list cell, instead of
pixbuf property, so that the example icon keeps sharpness even on high
density (when possible, i.e with vector icons, or available high res
version).
Also if an example icon was not set, search for the symbolic variant
first, then fallback to non-symbolic.
The window will be raised soon after anyway. No need to do it too early,
which makes setting a transient parent useless afterwards. In particular
we were still getting a "GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent"
message.
GTK+ has the concept of theme variants, and in particular if we prefer
the dark variant of a theme. This can be chosen globally but also
per-application. Make this choice customizable in the Theme tab of
Preferences.
By default, the dark variant will be prefered.
Use the "activate-link" signal instead of "clicked" on tip links, so
that we can stop signal propagation.
Otherwise it opens "http://docs.gimp.org/" everytime.
After Alexandre Prokoudine's insistent demand! :-)
I am still not sure how wise this is, since this should be really
considered a "developer-only" option. Basically these tools are really
too buggy and unstable and we should not shine too much light on these.
The counter-argument is that doing so will favor the bitrot.
Well ok. At least let's add a big warning message at the top of the
Playground page, to make it very clear (if that were not already the
case) that basically this is not to be considered a secret feature, but
really more a "we are looking for contributors" option.
Add GimpGuiConfig::filter-tool-use-last-settings wchich defaults to FALSE.
Honor the new option in gimp_gegl_procedure_execute_async() and add
it to prefs -> dialog defaults.
A hidden feature of the action search dialog, is that actions can
be matched based on their label's initials. E.g., "gb" will match
"Gaussian blur". While very convenient, this feature is currently
limited to two-letter initialisms.
Extend initialism-based search, by matching arbitrarily-long
initialisms, and by allowing partial matches (with lesser
priority.)
... and rename gimp_action_history_excluded_action() to
gimp_action_history_is_excluded_action().
is_blacklisted_action() determines whether an action should be
excluded from *both* the history and the search results, while
is_excluded_action() determines if an action should be excluded
only from the history. This eliminates some redundancy across
gimpaction-history and action-search-dialog.
... g_find_program_in_path() instead of a test run.
I knew there was a `which` equivalency in glib but could no find it
anymore. I finally found it thanks to a comment by Rishi. :-)
which is just a #define to g_assert for now, but can now easily be
turned into something that does some nicer debugging using our new
stack trace infrastructure. This commit also reverts all constructed()
functions to use assert again.
If the backtrace() API is available, it should always be possible to
debug. Still, display a message whether or not gdb or lldb are present,
as preferred debugging solutions (much better traces).
Replacing the boolean property "generate-backtrace" by an enum
"debug-policy". This property allows one to choose whether to debug
WARNING, CRITICAL and FATAL (crashes), or CRITICAL and FATAL only, or
only FATAL, or finally nothing.
By default, a stable release will debug CRITICAL and crashes, and
unstable builds will start debugging at WARNINGs.
The reason for the settings is that if you stumble upon a reccurring bug
in your workflow (and this bug is not major enough for data corruption,
and "you can live with it"), you still have to wait for a new release.
At some point, you may want to disable getting a debug dialog, at least
temporarily. Oppositely, even when using a stable build, you may want to
obtain debug info for lesser issues, even WARNINGs, if you wish to help
the GIMP project.
It can be argued though whether the value GIMP_DEBUG_POLICY_NEVER is
really useful. There is nothing to gain from refusing debugging info
when the software crashed anyway. But I could still imagine that someone
is not interested in helping at all. It's sad but not like we are going
to force people to report. Let's just allow disabling the whole
debugging system.
The feature already exists in our code and produces backtraces upon a
crash into a file. The only difference is that we are now getting the
file contents and showing it in our new debug dialog, so that it works
similarly on all platform (and therefore making the debug info visible
to people, otherwise they would never report, even though the data is
generated).
The difference with gdb/lldb is that it doesn't allow backtraces at
random points (for debugging non-fatal yet bad errors). Also the API has
just 2 functions and in particular an ExcHndlInit() but no way to unload
the feature. So we don't need the debugging page in Preferences because
the switch option would not work. On Windows, the feature will be
decided at build time only.
Last point: the code is untested on Windows so far. I assume it would
work, but there is at least one point I am unsure of: will ExcHndl have
already generated the backtrace file when gimpdebug runs? If not, I will
have to let gimp die first to be able to get the backtrace.
This is just a bit more consistent with existing code. Also build the
gimpdebug tool only when GIMP_CONSOLE_COMPILATION is not set and run
when --no-interface CLI option is not set since it is a GUI tool.
This will determine whether to output backtrace in a GUI and is disabled
by default on stable, and activated in dev builds. It is a bit redundant
with --stack-trace-mode option CLI and will take priority when enabled
since most people would run GIMP with a graphical interface anyway.
GIMP will now try to get a backtrace (on Unix machines only for now,
using g_on_error_stack_trace(); for Windows, we will likely have to look
into DrMinGW).
This is now applied to CRITICAL errors only, which usually means major
bugs but are currently mostly hidden unless you run GIMP in terminal. We
limit to 3 backtraces, because many CRITICAL typically get into domino
effect and cause more CRITICALs (for instance when a g_return*_if_fail()
returns too early).
Oh blasphemy! The Wilber logo in the toolbox can now be disabled
directly via the Preferences dialog (on the Toolbox page).
The logo is staying enabled by default though. Long live Wilber!
Add "color-profile-path" to GimpDialogConfig to remember the last-used
path in any profile chooser dialog.
Whenever a GimpColorProfileChooserDialog is created, call a new
gimpwidgets-utils helper function that connects to the dialog's "show"
and "response" signals and makes sure "color-profile-path" is set on
the dialog if it doesn't have a current folder already, and sets the
property back to the config object when a profile was actually chosen
from disk.
Use a GimpSpinScale widget instead of scale entry cruft, it handles
the model vs. view factor of 100.0 correctly. Also modernize the GUI
without using a table.
The dashboard dockable shows the current GEGL cache and swap sizes,
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.
Add gimp_item_get_merged_color_tag(), which returns the color tag
of the nearest ancestor (including the current item) that has a
color tag other than NONE. Use this function in GimpItemTreeView,
instead of gimp_item_get_color_tag(), to set the cell color of
items, so that item's with a NONE color tag inherit the color of
their parent. Add a boolean "inherited" parameter to
gimp_get_color_tag_color(), which indicates if the color tag is the
item's actual color tag, or an inherited color tag, and modify the
returned color accordingly, so that inherited colors are less
saturated/lighter than non-inherited ones.
To be used by the blend tool gradient editor to edit the gradient
endpoint/stop/midpoint properties corresponding to the selected
handle.
The GUI is currently empty; the following commits add its contents.
More than 2000 lines of code less in app/, instead of
if (instance->member)
{
g_object_unref/g_free/g_whatever (instance->member);
instance->member = NULL;
}
we now simply use
g_clear_object/pointer (&instance->member);
When the user provides a filename without an extension in the save
dialog, we add one for them, update the filename in the dialog, and
retry. However, the updated filename is made up of only the
basename, leaving out the dirname part, if specified. This means
that if the user enters "/somedir/somefile", the new filename
becomes "somefile.xcf", which refers to the current directory,
instead of "somedir".
Fix this by maintaining the dirname when adding a file extension.
- enable the setting code in gimp-gegl.c again
- but set the default to one thread in GimpGeglConfig, with a CPP warning
- rename "processors" to "threads" in the GUI
- add a warning box about unexpected results when increasing #threads
because the scale is useless otherwise with its range of 2..10000,
and because I needed a test case for the next commit (the
gimp_scale_entry_set_logarithmic() API was unused).
Add "import-raw-plug-in" to gimprc, and a new procedure
gimp_register_file_handler_raw(). On startup, remove all load
procedures that are marked as "handles raw" but are not implemented by
the configured plug-in. Add the list of available plug-ins to prefs ->
import/export. Register all file-darktable procedures as handling raw.
... have been saved.
No need to keep a list of 0 images when the creator requested a quit or
close-all actions and manually went through the list to save all
remaining images. Yet one can still cancel the quit/close-all action by
hitting Esc (or Cancel button) during the last save, since it is an
idle source action.
Both in the GimpImage API and in the GUI. The toggle in the save
dialog now controls ZLIB compression directly. Changed the various
info labels accordingly. Ditch the XCF parasite that saved the XCF
compat mode.
Commit 4beff2f was basing it on the screen y PPI but that is not really
consistent or logical actually. Since the actual stroke dialog uses the
y resolution of the current image, it makes sense that the generic
stroke defaults in the preferences should use the y resolution of the
default image.
This value could be based on either the x or y resolution, or maybe some
kind of mean values. It could also be based off the print resolution of
any image (if the user sets a physical dimension, the actual pixel width
will vary depending on the print resolution). There is no actual "good"
answer here. But any of these values will be better than a default 96.0.
The abbreviated commit hash we show in the shell and the about
dialog is currently just the last 7 characters of 'git describe',
based on the assumption that abbreviated hashes are always 7-digits
long. When the hash is longer than that, we're just showing a
nonsense commit.
This was never a good idea, since users can override this, and
since disambiguation can result in longer hashes, but since git
2.11, the default abbreviated hash length is determined based on
the size of the repository, which currently results in 10 digits
for us.
Let's just do it right.
It was agreed that we should write "plug-in" consistently. Only possibly
user-visible strings were updated.
Thanks to scootergrisen for a first patch which could not make it
after changing decision on the canonical writing.
Allow overriding icon sizes set in themes from the preferences.
This initial commit updates only toolbox icons. More to come.
4 options are available: small, medium, large and huge (the later would
likely be useful for HiDPI screens).
Uses a new widget GimpIconSizeScale.
Try to sort all GIMP_ICON_* defines into FDO categories like in
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/latest/ar01s04.html
Add defines for all icons we override, rename some icons to their FDO
standard names, and mark the ones we duplicate with a comment so we
don't forget to rename those to standard names in 3.0.
Remove all stock items added since 2.8, restore accidentially removed
ones, and rename the newly added GIMP_STOCK_* defines to GIMP_ICON_*.
(will move to having GIMP_ICON_* defines instead of magic hardcoded
strings for all icons).
Replace the 'with-behind' and 'with-replace' properties with a
single 'context' property, and use it to select the included
layer modes, according to their context mask.
Add a dummy GIMP_LAYER_MODE_SEPARATOR value to the GimpLayerMode
enum, and use it to explicitly mark the menu separators in the
layer-mode group arrays; add separators to the layer-mode menu
accordingly.
Update the rest of the code to use 'context' instead of 'with-behind'
and 'with-replace'. In particular, in the layers and layer options
dialogs, select the right context based on whether or not the
selected layer is a group.
set all legacy modes to completely immutable and the LAB modes'
blend mode to immutable. Change GimpLayer setters and the UI
accordingly. Remove the LAB color spaces from the GUI, they can
only be used with the LAB blend modes anyway and not changed.
Nobody has them anymore, and they are deprecated in GTK+ 3.x. This
also fixes all conflicting mnemonics except those I missed, but we can
fix them now.
Largely based on a patch by Ell, with the enum type renamed and
various small changes. Adds another axis of configurability to the
existing layer mode madness, and is WIP too.
I know this looks absolutely horrible, please spare me comments about
that. This commit has the purpose to let everybody experiment with the
new modes, and suggest improvements of the GimpLayerModeBox widget; we
need *some* way of controlling the new layer mode madness.
Optionally convert all imported (not XCFs) images to 32 bit linear
floating point, and optionally add a little noise in order to
distribute the colors minimally. The new options are on a new "Image
Import & Export" prefs page that needs a new icon. Original dithering
patch by pippin.
with proper value names. Mark most values as _BROKEN because they use
weird alpha compositing that has to die. Move GimpLayerModeEffects to
libgimpbase, deprecate it, and set it as compat enum for GimpLayerMode.
Add the GimpLayerModeEffects values as compat constants to script-fu
and pygimp.
Revert "app: action search should search accross all available actions."
This reverts commit 53b3673bd8.
Had to revert these two commits, quoting comment 6 of the bug:
Thinking again, that entire change is unfortunately wrong, the only
right UI manager is in fact
gimp_ui_managers_from_name ("<Image>")->data
because it's the global popup <Image> UI manager which is independent
of a display and it always in the right state for the currently
active image, all other UI managers are wrong.
<Dockable> has this whole list of actions named similarly to dialogs-*
actions, and we don't want these to take precedence, especially since
they would always create a new dock instead of just showing the existing
one if already present.
Also fix the redundancy check on already added actions.
In the "New Image" and "Convert Precision" dialogs. The "Gamma/Linear"
switches get adjusted automatically to the new defaults, but can be
changed manually.
Don't offer dithering options when converting to 16 bit, it doesn't
make much sense to dither for anything but 8 bit. Thanks to Elle for
testing that this assumption is indeed true.
Use a properly commented #define instead of just a hardcoded "8 bits"
to make clear that this is a pure GUI "restriction".
Disable the convert precision dialog's dithering controls when
converting to higher bit depths o to anything > 16 bit.
Make sure the disabled dithering widgets always says "None", which
implies duplicating the bit depth checking logic in both the dialog
and its callback, in order to protect the values in GimpDialogConfig
from being overwritten by NONE.
Add property "color-tag" of type enum GimpColorTag to GimpItem so all
layers, channels and paths can be tagged with a color.
For interoperability, use the color list from Krita which is a
superset of Photoshop's colors.
Features a "Color Tag" submenu in the layers, channels and paths
menus, a row of color radio buttons in the properties dialogs,
undo and PDB API.
As a side effect, some common code is now factores out into
items-actions.[ch] and items-commands.[ch] which adds visible, linked
and lock actions for layers and channels.
Introduce item-options-dialog.[ch] which abstracts this away and use
it from the layer, channel, vectors options dialogs. This is all
pretty ugly but better than duplicating that code three times. The
vector-options-dialog is now completely pointless but I kept it anyway
for now, let's see what unique path options we come up with.
Add a GimpFillType argument to GimpItem::resize() and fill type
widgets to the canvas and layer resize dialogs. Fill the new parts of
the drawable according to fill type in gimp_drawable_resize(). Make
sure places that need the old behavior get GIMP_FILL_TRANSPARENT
passed by hardcoding it in the GimpItem::resize() implemetations of
channel, mask, selection etc.
Use a GimpSpinScale in channel-options-dialog.c and clean up the
dialog layout. Affects the "Quick Mask Attributes", "New Channel" and
"Channel Attributes" dialogs.
