The new function gimp_procedure_set_sensitivity_mask() allows plug-ins
to tell when a procedure should be marked as sensitive or not.
gimp_procedure_get_sensitivity_mask() retrieves this information.
Currently plug-ins are automatically marked as sensitive when an image
is present and a single drawable is selected. Nowadays, we can have
multiple selected layers so we should allow plug-ins to tell us if they
support working on multiple drawables. Actually we could even imagine
new plug-ins which would be made to work only on multiple drawables.
Oppositely, there are a lot of plug-ins which don't care at all if any
drawable is selected at all (so we should allow no drawable selected).
Finally why not even imagine plug-ins which don't care if no image is
shown? E.g. plug-ins to create new images or whatnot. This new API
allows our core to know all this and show procedure sensitivity
accordingly. By default, when the function is not called, the 1 image
with 1 drawable selected case is the default, allowing existing plug-ins
easier update.
Note: this only handles the sensitivity part right now. A plug-in which
would advertize working on several layer would still not work, because
the core won't allow sending several layers. It's coming in further
commits.
Add a new gimp_drawable_apply_operation_with_config() function,
which takes an operation node together with a config object, and
applies the operation using the config options, including both the
operation-specific options, and the common GimpOperationSettings
options.
Use the function in gimp_gegl_procedure_execute(), so that
reapplying a filter takes the common operation settings used
originally into account.
Add a new GimpOperationSettings class, to be used as a base class
for all operation-config types. The class provides options common
to all operations (namely, the clipping mode, input region, and
color options), which were previously stored in GimpFilterOptions,
and were therefore bound to the filter tool, instead of being
stored as part of the operation settings; as a result, these
options would have no effect when reapplying a filter, or when
restoring a preset.
The GimpOperationSettings options do not affect the operation
node, but rather the associated GimpDrawableFilter object. The
class provides a gimp_operation_settings_sync_drawable_filter()
function, which applies the options to the filter.
Modify all custom and auto-generated operation-config types to
derive from GimpOperationSettings, and modify the GimpConfig
functions of the former to account for the GimpOperationSettings
properties, using a set of protected functions provided by the
class.
Move the mnemonic and ellipsis removal code to
gimp_procedure_real_get_label() and cache the generated label in
GimpProcedure. Remove the same code from GimpPlugInProcedure and
GimpGeglProcedure.
GimpDisplay contains only the ID logic and the "gimp" and "config"
pointers, and lives in the core.
GimpDisplayImpl is a subclass and contains all the actual display
stuff. The subclass is only an implementation detail and doesn't
appear in any API.
Remove all hacks which pass displays as gpointer, GObject or
GimpObject through the core, or even lookup its type by name,
just use GimpDisplay.
Turn all ID param specs into object param specs (e.g. GimpParamImageID
becomes GimpParamImage) and convert between IDs and objects in
gimpgpparams.c directly above the the wire protocol, so all of app/,
libgimp/ and plug-ins/ can deal directly with objects down to the
lowest level and not care about IDs.
Use the actual object param specs for procedure arguments and return
values again instead of a plain g_param_spec_object() and bring back
the none_ok parameter.
This implies changing the PDB type checking functions to work on pure
integers instead of IDs (one can't check whether object creation is
possible if performing that check requires the object to already
exist).
For example gimp_foo_is_valid() becomes gimp_foo_id_is_valid() and is
not involved in automatic object creation magic at the protocol
level. Added wrappers which still say gimp_foo_is_valid() and take the
respective objects.
Adapted all code, and it all becomes nicer and less convoluted, even
the generated PDB wrappers in app/ and libgimp/.
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.
- libgimpbase: change GPParam to transfer all information about the
GValues we use, in the same way done for GPParamDef. GPParam is now
different from GimpParam from libgimp, pointers can't be casted any
longer. The protocol is now completely GimpPDBArgType-free. Remove
gp_params_destroy() from the public API.
- libgimp: add API to convert between an array of GPParams and
GimpValueArray, the latter is now the new official API for dealing
with procedure arguments and return values, GimpParam is cruft (the
wire now talks with GimpPlugIn more directly than with the members
of GimpPlugInInfo, which need additional compat conversions).
- libgimp, app: rename gimpgpparamspecs.[ch] to simply
gimpgpparams.[ch] which is also more accurate because they now
contain GValue functions too. The code that used to live in
app/plug-in/plug-in-params.h is now completely in libgimp.
- app: contains no protocol compat code any longer, the only place
that uses GimpPDBArgType is the PDB query procedure implementation,
which also needs to change.
- app: change some forgotten int32 run-modes to enums.
- Change the wire protocol's GPProcInstall to transmit the entire
information needed for constructing all GParamSpecs we use, don't
use GimpPDBArgType in GPProcInstall but an enum private to the wire
protocol plus the GParamSpec's GType name. Bump the wire protocol
version.
- Add gimpgpparamspecs.[ch] in both app/plug-in/ and libgimp/ which
take care of converting between GPParamDef and GParamSpec. They
share code as far as possible.
- Change pluginrc writing and parsing to re-use GPParamDef and the
utility functions from gimpgpparamspecs.
- Remove gimp_pdb_compat_param_spec() from app/pdb/gimp-pdb-compat.[ch],
the entire core uses proper GParamSpecs from the wire protocol now,
the whole file will follow down the drain once we use a GValue
representation on the wire too.
- In gimp_plug_in_handle_proc_install(), change the "run-mode"
parameter to a GParamSpecEnum(GIMP_TYPE_RUN_MODE) (if it is not
already an enum). and change all places in app/ to treat it as an
enum value.
- plug-ins: fix cml-explorer to register correctly, a typo in
"run-mode" was never noticed until now.
- Add gimpgpcompat.[ch] in libgimp to deal with all the transforms
between old-style wire communication and using GParamSpec and
GValue, it contains some functions that are subject to change or
even removal in the next steps.
- Change the libgimp GimpProcedure and GimpPlugIn in many ways to be
able to actually install procedures the new way.
- plug-ins: change goat-exercise to completely use the new GimpPlugIn
and GimpProcedure API, look here to see how plug-ins will look in
the future, of course subject to change until this is finished.
- Next: changing GPParam to transmit all information about a GValue.
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.
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 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.
by encoding them directly in the string attached to all filter
actions. The code now supports both "gegl:some-operation" and
"gegl:some-operation\n<serialized config>".
Add "default_settings" to GimpGeglProcedure to store the settings of
the invoking action, much like the "default_run_mode" member.
Change filters-commands.c to parse the new operation string, create
GimpGeglProcedures with the deserialized settings, and use those
settings when the procedures are ran.
Change the filter history to be smarter about what is already in the
history, there can now be several different procedures with the same
name.
Remove the dilate and erode actions from the drawable group, and add
them to filters, they are just special cases of value-propagate with
fixed settings.
which determines if a filter is applied directly (RUN_NONINTERACTIVE)
or asynchronously using GimpOperationTool (RUN_INTERACTIVE).
Split filter actions in two groups, one for direct apply and one for
interactive apply, which have separate callbacks that create
GimpGeglProcedures with the right default_run_mode set.
(After doing this distinction automatically based on the existance of
editable properties, I figured will might want direct apply also for
filters that do have properties, such as e.g. dilate and erode, which
are just value-propagate with some constant property values)
which gets added automatically by procedure_commands_get_display_args().
Move the non-interactive and run-with-last-vals code to
gimp_gegl_procedure_execute() (not execute_async()) because it makes
more sence to call it synchronously anyway (not implemented yet).
This commit should change no behavior.
Return only the config object's GType and do the g_object_new() in the
caller (one caller only needs the type, there is no need to create a
dummy object just to get to its type).
Filters settings used to be serialized and deserialized only
when a filter tool's GUI was shown, too late for the code that
re-runs/re-shows filters with previous values.
Move the entire loading/saving code to gimp-operation-config.c, even
adding/removing the dummy separator item between timestamped automatic
history and manually saved settings. Load the settings automatically
when a settings container is requested, but still trigger saving from
the few places the container is changed in the GUI; could also
automate that later.
This commit also moves all settings of filters that have their own
tools from gimpdir/tool-options/ to gimpdir/filters/. Add compat code
to try the old filename if the new doesn't exist, so files are
migrated automatically.
WIP, but this step already fixes the bug.
We can't just switch to a GimpOperationTool by using the normal
gimp_context_set_tool() or gimp_context_tool_changed() because it
needs additional initialization like setting an operation at all.
In gimp_gegl_procedure_execute_async(), g_object_set_data() the used
procedure on the newly created tool.
In gimp_display_shell_initialize_tool(), when we re-create the active
tool because of a drawable change, check for the procedure and invoke
it again, instead of simply creating an empty operation tool by
calling gimp_context_tool_changed().
Add new string members to GimpImageMapTool and use them instead of the
resp. fields of GimpToolInfo. Change ::get_operation() to return the
operation name and a lot of strings for the UI, and create both the
GeglNode and the config object in GimpOperationTool. Lots of various
cleanups in GimpImageMapTool subclasses. This is an intermediate state
on the way of making the whole filter applying mechanism more generic
and less depending on subclasses.
Add "title" and "help_id" parameters and members/properties to
GimpToolDialog, GimpToolGui, GimpOperationTool. Also make the order of
parameters more consistent.
Add GimpGeglProceure to keep track of recently used GEGL operations in
the filter history. The new procedure also takes care of running the
op in the GEGL tool, so filters-commands.c is almost empty now.
Change gimp-filter-history.c to find procedures by name instead of
comparing pointers.
The only thing missing now is rerunning a GEGL op with the last
settings (not just showing its UI).
