This means that all functions which were returning or taking as
parameter an image id (as gint32) are now taking a GimpImage object
instead.
The PDB is still passing around an id only over the wire. But we create
an object for plug-ins to work on.
This is quite a huge API break, but is probably the best bet for the
future quality. It will make nicer API instrospection (and nicer API in
binding), will fix the issues with pspec on GimpImageID in Python
bindings (which makes the current Python API unusable as soon as we need
to work on images, which is most of our plug-ins!), etc.
Also it will allow to use signals on images, which will be a great asset
when we will finally have bi-directionnal communications (i.e. plug-ins
would be able to connect to image changes, destructions, and whatnot).
It's just too weird to be public. Remove its properties from the wire
protocol and from pluginrc. Instead, have all GParamSpecs' flags on
the wire and in pluginrc, so we can use stuff like
GIMP_PARAM_NO_VALIDATE.
Port the remaining few places to GIMP_PROC_ARG_STRING().
I'm sure something is broken now wrt UTF-8 validation,
will add tighter checks in the next commit.
And always pass URIs to all file procedures, the ones what didn't
register as "handles remove" will only ever get local file:// URIs.
Change all file plug-ins (also legacy ones) to expect URIs instead
of filenames, and convert to local paths in the plug-in.
The wire protocol should now be almost 100% clean of non-UTF-8 strings.
on behalf of plug-in authors who have no style or can't type.
Instead, simply reject non-canonical procedure names and remove all
code that keeps aroud the original non-canonical shit just to pass it
back to the plug-in.
GimpConfigWriter contains several constructors with the convention
`gimp_config_writer_new_* ()`. This will lead to problems however with
languages like Vala, where it cannot disambiguate the following:
```
// calls config_writer_new_string()
Gimp.ConfigWriter w = new ConfigWriter.string("xxx");
// calls config_writer_string()
w.string("xxx")
```
Using `from_` in constructors is general practice in GObject-bsed
libraries because of this.
This also fixes an error when trying to use vapigen on the GIMP .GIR
file.
In GimpProjection, when the projectable's size changes, while its
offset remains the same, simply update the projection buffer's
extent, instead of allocating a new buffer and copying the contents
over.
.... as a drop-in replacement for gegl_buffer_set_extent(), which,
in addition to setting the buffer's extent, clears any now-out-of-
bounds tiles, to free memory.
In gimp_init(), call gimp_enums_init(). We need to make all enum types
known to the type system by name because the PDB is now based on enum
type names.
Change the tooltips of the "Image/Layer -> Transform -> Arbitrary
Rotation..." to make the two actions distinguishable in the action
search dialog, similarly to the other image/layer transform
actions.
Add a gimp-rotate-image-arbitrary action, and a corresponding
"Image -> Transform -> Arbitrary Rotation..." menu entry, which
activates the rotate tool in image mode (similarly to the
corresponding action for layers).
... so that the original transform-type of the rotate tool is
restored once the layer is rotated. Additionally, make sure to
set the tool's transform-type even if it's already active.
... which temporarily changes the transform-type of the tool,
restoring the original type once it's halted. To be used when
activating a transform tool through an action for a specific
transform type.
Add a new "Image" transform type to the transform tools, in
addition to the existing "Layer", "Selection", and "Path" transform
types. The "Image" mode transforms the entire image, rather than a
single item. In tools with a preview, the preview shows the
transformed image projection. The clipping mode controls how the
canvas is clipped during the transform; in particular, the ADJUST
clipping mode resizes the canvas to fit its transformed size.
In GimpCanvasTransformPreview, use a GimpPickable, instead of a
GimpDrawable, as the preview source, so that we can use it with the
image projection, rather than just with drawables.
... which controls whether or not the image is rendered by the
shell. We'll use this to hide the image while showing its
transform preview in the next commits.
Add a new gimp_image_transform() function, which transforms the
entire image, including all layers, channels (including selection
mask), vectors, guides, and sample points, according to a
transformation matrix. The canvas is resized according to the
clip_result parameter, the same way drawables are resized during
transformation; the layers are resized using ADJUST mode
regardless.
... which takes the symmetry axis as a parameter, instead of hard-
coding the axis to the middle of the image, and which additionally
takes the clipping mode as a parameter, controlling whether to clip
or resize the canvas. Note that the actual canvas size never
changes, but it may be offset when flipped around an off-center
axis, without clipping.
Implement gimp_image_flip() in terms of gimp_image_flip_full().
In the various PDB transform functions, avoid erroneously creating
a floating selection when transforming the image mask, and rather
transform the mask normally.
Remove the special clipping-mode handling for channels throughout
the transform (and drawable-filter) code, and rather use
gimp_item_get_clip(), added in the previous commit, instead. As
mentioned in the previous commit, we only modify the clipping mode
in top-level code, while having lower-level code use the clipping
mode as-is. This not only hides the actual clipping-mode logic
from the transform code, but, in particular, allows code performing
transformation internally to use arbitrary clipping modes.
Also, this commit fixes a bunch of PDB bugs all over the place :)
Add a new GimpItem::get_clip() virtual function, and a
corresponding gimp_item_get_clip() function, which return the
actual clipping mode to be used when transforming (or applying a
filter to) a given item, given the original clipping mode. This
applies only to whole-item transformations (i.e., when not creating
a floating selection), and should be used by the top-level code
applying the transformation, rather than by the actual
transformation code, so that the item can be transformed using a
different clipping mode internally.
Provide a default implementation that simply returns the input
clipping mode, and override for GimpChannel (to always return CLIP)
and for GimpVecotrs (to always return ADJUST).
because they are deprecated.
Change GIMP_ICON_TYPE_INLINE_PIXBUF to GIMP_ICON_TYPE_PIXBUF and the
libgimp API to (icon-name, GdkPixbuf, GFile). Use the file's uri and a
PNG blob of the pixbuf to pass around on the wire and for storage in
pluginrc.
Pass the help-id specified by the procedure to the core, and use it in
the core if set instead of always using the procedure's name (which
was probably good enough for all eternity, but it's still more
consistent this way).
