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.
This fixes restoring of brush properties (size, spacing angle etc.)
from presets, which was utterly broken before. The fix consists of
two parts:
- In tool_manager_preset_changed(), always copy the brush properties
again after setting the preview on the tool options, in order to
override brush properites that get copied from a linked brush when
that brush gets set on the tool options.
But no amount of copying stuff again and again would help without:
- In gimp_context_set_by_type(), don't use g_object_set() to set the
object (brush, pattern etc.). Instead, build a GValue and call
gimp_context_set_property(). This may seem odd, but avoids a
g_object_freeze_notify()/thaw_notify() around the g_object_set(),
which was causing "notify" to be emitted at the very end, after
everything this context change has triggered. GimpContext is an
essential core object and there is an expectation of a reasonable
order of signal emissions and callbacks being called. The "notify"
at the end was keeping any callbacks of the context's "foo-changed"
signals to override anything an earlier callback had done, if a
"notify" callback was overriding that overriding again.
This was probably the reason for a lot of odd behavior observed over
the years. In fact, I have been searching for this for at least 5
years.
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.
and remove lots of labels from calls to gimp_prop_foo_new(). Also
had to manually remove some unwanted labels that are now added
automatically, fixes bug #761880.
- GimpContext API and property
- a GimpDataFactory
- List and grid views with GimpDataFactoryView
- actions and a context menu
None of this is connected to the actual tool yet, or depends on
libmypaint in any way.
Ignore notifications on properties that are not "context properties",
which is for example the parent context's "gimp" property.
A notification on "gimp" is recieved when creating the child context
before the parent context is fully constructed, for example in the
parent's constructed() implementation.
GIMP's OVERLAY mode was identical to SOFTLIGHT. This commit fixes the
issue and introduces a NEW_OVERLAY mode and enum value.
- change gimp:overlay-mode to be a real (svg-ish) overlay mode
- when compositing, map OVERLAY to gimp:softlight-mode
- when compisiting, map NEW_OVERLAY to gimp:overlay-mode
- bump the XCF version when NEW_OVERLAY is used
- map OVERLAY to SOFTLIGHT when loading and saving XCF
- map OVERLAY to softlight in all PDB setters
- map OVERLAY to softlight when deserializing a GimpContext
- change all paint mode menus to show an entry for NEW_OVERLAY
instead of OVERLAY
- change PSP, PSD and OpenRaster to use NEW_OVERLAY
These changes should (redundantly) make sure that no OVERLAY enum
value is used in the core any longer because it gets mapped to
SOFTLIGHT at all entry points, with the downside of introducing a
setter/getter asymmetry when OVERLAY was set in a PDB api.
They were also serialized correctly before, but only because many
GimpData objects were (bogusly) always dirty after loading, which
caused them to always be written do disk on exit. This commit fixes
this problem and updates by-name references explicitly as things are
renamed, instead of relying on bugs.
Add gimp_data_factory_data_clean() which clears the dirty flags from
all a factory's objects. Call the new function on all factories at the
end of gimp_restore(), when all data has been loaded. This might be
total overkill, but ensures that everything is clean in the beginning.
Add new signal GimpContext::prop_name_changed() which is emitted when
any of the context's object properties (brush, gradient etc) is
renamed.
In GimpToolPreset, connect to the new signal and dirty the preset if a
relevant object propery was renamed, making sure the preset is saved
to disk later. Also optmize updates quite a bit by ignoring
notifications on tool option properties that are irrelevant to the
preset.
This might or might not address the issues discussed in bug #739487.
...one image onto another
gimp_dock_window_display_changed(): make sure the "auto-follow-active"
logic works both ways: when the active image or display is changed in
a dockable, update the global context. Fixes multi-window mode.
gimp_context_real_set_display(): make sure a context's display and
image are always in a consistent state and never have a display that
is not display->image: when display is the same as context->display,
check that the context's image matches display->image, so that after a
gimp_context_set_display(), the context is consistent in all
cases. Fixes single-window mode.
Make gimp_context_get|set_font_name() actually deal with
context->font_name, so the context can do its job of keeping the name
of an unavailable object around.
We don't need a standard tool-preset object, so just remove the
code that was copied and pasted from other GimpData objects.
Fixes the crash on startup in non-interactive mode.
because the device info container wants to be displayed in a container
view soon. Also we are about to get lists of tool presets and stuff,
which are also contexts.
Begin to consider GimpObject::name as private and always use
gimp_object_get_name(). Change gimp_object_get_name() to take an
untyped pointer so we don't have to do so awfully many casts. There is
a runtime check for the type inside the function anyway.
