Add "In Place" variants for all sorts of pasting:
- extend the GimpPasteType enum with IN_PLACE values
- add the needed actions and menu items
- merge the action callbacks into one, taking an enum value as parameter
- refactor the pasting code in gimp-edit.c into smaller functions
We probably have too menu items in the "Edit" menu now, needs to be
sorted out.
...in both the core and libgimp.
Images now know what the default mode for new layers is:
- NORMAL for empty images
- NORMAL for images with any non-legacy layer
- NORMAL_LEGAVY for images with only legacy layers
This changes behavior when layers are created from the UI, but *also*
when created by plug-ins (yes there is a compat issue here):
- Most (all?) single-layer file importers now create NORMAL layers
- Screenshot, Webpage etc also create NORMAL layers
Scripts that create images from scratch (logos etc) should not be
affected because they usually have NORMAL_LEGACY hardcoded.
3rd party plug-ins and scripts will also behave old-style unless they
get ported to gimp_image_get_default_new_layer_mode().
and use them for the new image in "Paste as new image". We were using
the resolution and unit of the image the paste command was invoked
from, which is entirely random and useless.
Use gimp_item_translate() instead of gimp_item_set_offset() to set
a pasted item's position, so that the offsets of pasted layer group
children are updated correctly. Otherwise, only the group itself
moves, while its children remain positioned relative to the top-left
corner of the image.
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.
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.
Don't change the paste_type to NEW_LAYER just because there is a
complex thing in the clipboard. Instead, honor the request to paste
FLOATING or FLOATING_INTO and reduce the pasted thing to a simple flat
layer. Also remove the message and paste_type change from edit_paste()
in edit-commands.c, it had the same purpose, just with a user
notification.
In order to paste the full layer one needs to explicitly invoke
"Paste as new layer" now.
It still changes the paste_type to NEW_LAYER if it's impossible to
attach a floating selection to the target, the menu item was simply
insensitive before.
They have a size of 1x1, treat them a image-sized when pasting layers
on top of them.
(my commit below was also about gimp_edit_get_paste_offset(), not
about gimp_edit_paste() as the log claims)
Use the newly added clipboard for entire images to copy/paste layers
(we only create single-layer clipboard images, and use only the first
layer of any recieved image, the layers can be arbitrarily complex
though):
- change gimp_edit_copy,cut,paste() to return/take a GimpObject
that can be a GimpImage or GimpBuffer
- cut/copy the whole layer if there is no selection
- always paste layers as new layers, not floating selections
- always paste news layers on top of the active layer, where
we would attach a floating selection
- add enum GimpPasteType { FLOATING, FLOATING_INTO, NEW_LAYER }
- add GimpPasteType parameter to gimp_edit_paste() and handle all
three cases there because there is now a lot of common code
involved
- change all callers accordingly, use only legacy buffer pasting
from the PDB for now
Which creates a buffer from GimpFillOptions that can be applied to a
drawable. Eliminates three slightly different copies of the same
code. Also adds to the color history for each color fill, we missed
two places before.
They are unreliable because every type checking cast discards them,
they are useless anyway, visual clutter, added inconsistently, and
generally suck. Wanted to do this a long time ago, it was a bad idea
in the first place.
to not return a reference that has to be dropped. Also allow NULL to
be returned if the managed cannot have a profile. If it can have one,
get_color_profile() still always returns a profile (either the
assigned one, or a generated built-in one).
Set the profile when the buffer is copied from a layer, and when it's
created from a GdkPixbuf from the clipboard. The profile is not yet
used for anything.
which returns an error if there is no pattern for GIMP_FILL_PATTERN.
Use it instead of having the same code in 3 variants, and make error
handling consistent with bucket fill.
Another attempt to fix paste/drop positions for good.
Paste/drop target is either the selected area of a drawable, the
drawable itself, or the image:
- if the paste is larger than the target, center on the target
- if there is a viewport, and the viewport intersects with the
target, center on the intersection
- otherwise, center on the target
Finally, if we did viewport-centered pasting, make sure the paste is
as completely within image bounds as possible.
