Fonts should not be blocking startup as this provides a very bad
experience when people have a lot of fonts. This was experienced even
more on Windows where loading time are often excessively long.
We were already running font loading in a thread, yet were still
blocking startup (thread was only so that the loading status GUI could
get updated as a feedback). Now we will only start loading and proceed
directly to next steps.
While fonts are not loaded, the text tool will not be usable, yet all
other activities can be performed.
Remove all clipping hacks for drawing the canvas background, turns out
they never worked and we were relying on the pattern set on the
window, gah!
Also remove deprecated attempts to get a backgroud color and simply
don't show a color box in the menus for "from theme" cases.
The zoom focus discussion on IRC suggests that everybody is annoyed
about centering behavior (or lack thereof), so here is a way to
explicitly center the image witout zooming.
As proposed on IRC. This will allow people to debug their fonts (for
instance when there are permission issues or whatnot) by knowing the
list of problematic fonts in an error dialog at startup (and not only on
terminal).
First WIP commit, adds:
- enum GimpGradientBlendColorSpace { RGB_PERCEPTUAL, RGB_LINEAR }
- linear blending mode for gradient segments
- tool options GUI for the blend and paint tools which use gradients
Make sure a channel -> selection -> channel roundtrip never does any
gamma conversion.
In gimp_channel_duplicate(), make sure a created channel has the
right format, and the right data. Fixes selection -> channel.
When switching off quick mask, call gimp_item_to_selection() instead
if gimp_selection_load(), the latter was implementing a shortcut which
is now wrong.
Remove gimp_selection_load() which is now unused.
Unrelated: also remove gimp_selection_save(), it was an obvious
3-liner used only twice.
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.
The debug menu is currently not included in stable versions.
Include the menu unconditionally, but hide it, and its associated
actions, by default in stable versions. Allow enabling the menu
using a new --show-debug-menu command-line option, in the same vein
as --show-playground.
...should really use last values
When creating a layer or channel "from last values", really use the
values last set be the user in the respective dialogs. In particular,
don't use properties of the active layer or channel. I have no idea
what we were thinking when adding that obscure logic.
When pasting in place over a layer group or a content-locked item,
change the paste type to NEW_LAYER_IN_PLACE, rather than NEW_LAYER,
so that the new layer is still pasted in the right location.
Additionally, avoid showing the "Pasted as new layer because ..."
message when pasting over a layer group or a content-locked item,
when the paste type is NEW_LAYER[_IN_PLACE] to begin with.
Our composite modes don't correspond directly to the Porter-Duff
operators after which they're named, and these names aren't too
descriptive anyway.
Rename the composite modes as follows:
Source Over => Union
Source Atop => Clip to Backdrop
Destination Atop => Clip to Layer
Source In => Intersection
Update relevant code, including UI text, enumerator names, function
names, and action names.
Add layer-mask support for group layers. Group-layer masks work
similarly to ordinary-layer masks, with the following
considerations:
The group's mask size is the same as group's size (i.e., the
bounding box of its children) at all times. When the group's size
changes, the mask is cropped to the new size -- areas of the mask
that fall outside of the new bounds are discarded and their data is
lost (sans undo), and newly added areas are filled with black (and
hence are transparent by default).
The new gimp_group_layer_{suspend,resume}_mask() functions can be
used to modify this behavior. Between the outermost pair of
suspend/resume calls, the old mask data is remembered, and is used
to fill the newly added areas while cropping the mask when the
group is resized. We override GimpItem::{start,end}_move() for
GimpLayer, to call these functions (suspend() in start_move(), and
resume() in end_move()) for each of the layer's ancestors.
As a result, while moving a layer, or a set of layers, atomically,
such as while dragging with the move tool, or moving linked layers,
the ancestors' mask data is not lost, and is only discarded at the
end of the operation.
This commit also takes care of properly handling undo for group-
layer mask crops, properly invalidating the image when the group
layer's mask is shown, and enabling the mask actions for group
layers (obviously :).
filters-commands.c always needs an image and a drawable, so use
return_if_no_drawable(), not return_if_no_display().
Also fix the sensitivity of the shadows-highlights actions, which made
this bug triggerable at all.
The four remaining "classic" color tools (Brightness-Contrast, Curves,
Levels and Threshold) are in fact just special UIs for otherwise
completely normal filter ops.
Add normal filter actions for them and invoke them like all
other filters, which makes them show up in the filter history
automatically.
The only small hack needed is to special case them in
gimp_gegl_procedure_execute_async() so the right tools are created
instead of the default GimpOperationTool. Also, blacklist the
automatically generated tools actions from action search and the
shortcut editor.
The attached patch avoids CRITICALs when executing Debug actions
with no images open.
1) do not run projection benchmark unless there is an image
2) memsize of pluginmanager member was incorrectly computed using
gimp_object functions for 2 GObjects
It appears that GTK+/GNOME don't have an icon with
"help-browser" ID anymore, but we have exactly the icon
that is needed for two menu entries.
Also, the menu entry for "Search and Run..." was using
a system icon for finding stuff, which looked wrong when
used with a symbolic theme.
We could come up with something overly clever like
a dedicated CLI/terminal icon, but people would expect
a magnifier instead (judging by what Blender does)
and that's what we already use for the Zoom tool.
Hence the lazy fix.
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.
Refactor GimpDashboard to autogenerate the UI based on a
description of the different variables, fields, and groups.
Allow individual groups to be expanded/collapsed, and individual
fields to be enabled/disabled. Save the relevant state in the
dashboard's aux-info.
Add fields for the new GeglStats properties, as per GEGL commit
25c39ce6c9bb618f06ac96d118e624be66464d74. The new fields are not
enabled by default.
Add "reset" action, to clear the history, and reset cumulative
data.
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.
Same as for the color tags issue, short labels look much better in
menus. On the other hand, the longer description needs to be as a
tooltip, otherwise there is not enough information in the action search
to distinguish one action purpose from another.
