CHANGELOG

New features:

  • [raw processing] added fallback RAW decoding based on RawTherapee code.
    Used for example for opening floating-point DNGs not supported by RawSpeed
  • [film CLUTs] added support for reading bundled gmic_film_cluts.gmz file
  • [plugin] moved GIMP plugin to external project
  • Added optional support for sidecar files.
    When exporting an image to TIFF or Jpeg format,
    the editing configuration is saved into a file named .tif.pfi or .jpg.pfi.
    Also, when opening an image named image.ext, the program looks for a sidecar
    file named image.pfi or image.ext.pfi (in this order) in the same folder.
    If a sidecar .pfi file is found it is opened instead of image.ext.
    The sidecar files functionality is disabled by default, and can be enabled
    via the settings dialog.

Improvements:

  • Re-worked the UI layout, now with a single left panel showing both the layers tree and
    the controls for the active tool. Masks editing is now also performed in the same panel.
  • Various improvements and polishing of widgets layout
  • Removed dependency on GExiv2. Code now only depends on Exiv2. A bundled 0.2.6 version is used if
    not found on the system.
  • [tools/raw processing] reduced memory usage during RAW image loading
  • [tools/raw processing] RAW decoding updated to current RawSpeed/DT git version (as of 2017-05-25)
  • [tools/raw processing] added support for per-cahnnel black levels
  • [tools/lens corrections] completed optical corrections support, now also included in the RAW processing module
  • [tools/lens corrections] added support for fixed-lens camera (from Darktable)
  • [tools/crop] added top/left handles and fixed handling of image boundaries
  • [gui] replaced GTK idle callbacks with Glib::Dispatcher signals, and improved thread-safety
  • [gui] added expander for grouping additional tool controls, like horizontal/vertical shifts
  • [gui] added more keyboard shortcuts (layer copy/cut/paste/deletion)
  • [gui] using vips_resize() for fit-to-screen scaling
  • [batch] enable outputting of .PFI files
  • [build] moved GMIC code into a separate static library, to speed up parallel compilation

Bug fixes:

  • [base] fixed threading of cache buffers for VIPS versions 8.4.*
  • [tools/raw processing] fixed issue with SPOT WB when output is gamma-encoded
  • [tools/raw processing] fixed spot WB when output image is in Lab colorspace
  • [tools/shadows-highlights] Fixed processing of highlights
  • [tools/clone-stamp] fixed various bugs leading to unpredictable crashes
  • [tools/uniform fill] fixed initialisation of color selector button in UI
  • [tools/lens corrections] fixed crash due to un-initialised pointers when camera/lens not found

CHANGELOG

New features:

  • Implemented GIMP plug-in
  • Processing pipeline:
    • Disabled pre-caching of layers at image loading. Added output tilecache operations to cached layers.
    • Updated G'MIC to version 1.6.9
  • Raw processing:
    • Added temperature/tint white-balance controls
    • Added chromatic aberrations correction module (automatic and manual), based on RawTherapee code
    • Added "clip" and "blend" highlights reconstruction modes.
      "clip" mode just clips the output of the demosaicing phase to the [0..1] range.
      "blend" mode is derived from the similar mode of RawTherapee and is equivalent to DCRAW's "-H 2" option
    • Added correction of RAW black/white points. The corrections are applied to the RAW data BEFORE the white balancing step
    • The camera input profile is now assigned to the image data when the working profile is set to NONE
    • Added possibility to define a default processing preset for all opened RAW files, to be stored as "$HOME/.photoflow/presets/default.pfp" under Linux/OSX. This feature is not yet working under Windows
  • Scale/rotate tool: added horizontal and vertical image flipping
  • GUI:
    • Added vertical panel with tools shortcuts on the left of the layers list
    • Implemented preview image panning via Ctrl-left-click-n-drag
    • Added persistent application settings and settings dialog
    • Added "about" section in settings dialog
    • Added possibility to choose a custom monitor profile from disk, which is then used to render the image in the preview area
    • Added help dialogs specific for each tool
    • The clipping warning logic has been changed: now it gets activated whenever at least one channel exceeds the threshold
    • Changed logic for tools activation: now only one tool at a time can be expanded and thus activated, and it also grabs control of the mouse clicks in the preview area. The "editing flag" button has therefore been removed.
    • Improved slider widgets appearance and added reset button
    • Completed GTK3 compatibility and added initial GTK3 theme, based on TooWaBoo's RawTherapeeBlue.css theme (https://discuss.pixls.us/t/custom-theme-toowabooblue-1-09-update-08-mar-2016-gtk3/772)
    • Improved file handling icons. New icons are adapted from the LibreIcons iconset (http://studiojunkyard.github.io/LibreICONS/)
    • Added rule-of-thirds guidelines to "crop" tool
    • Added possibility to move the selected control point in the curves tool via the keyboard up/down/left/right arrows.
    • Enabled Ctrl+Alt+left_click sampling of curve points for the "H/S/L mask" and the "brightness/contrast/saturation/hue" tools
    • The expanded/collapsed state of group layers in GUI is now kept when the processing pipeline is re-built and saved in the PFI files
  • Build system: added building option to choose among the bundled and system-wide LensFun libraries

Bug fixes:

  • Fixed various bugs in processing threads synchronization
  • Fixed various bugs in objects clean-up at program end
  • Fixed mouse coordinates conversion for "perspective" tool
  • Fixed laggynesh of path tool during path creation and bug in falloff rendering

CHANGELOG

Bug fixes:

  • The tools reset button now works also with curves
  • The target channel selector has been removed from tools that do not correctly implement this feature
  • Impulse noise reduction tool: fixed memory leak
  • Fixed crashes on some Xfce-based systems
  • Perspective correction tool: initial region set to rectangle (therefore no correction is initially applied)

CHANGELOG

New features:

  • Re-added GUI controls for horizontal/vertical shifting of layers
  • Gradient tool: the tool controls now include a curve adjustment, which allows to easily create
    arbitrary colored and/or non-linear gradients starting from a linear grayscale one.
  • Scale/rotate tool: added mouse-driven rotation and automatic cropping of rotated image
  • Few changes have been introduced into the "Volume" tool, now called "Local contrast":
    • the "Unsharp mask" method has been renamed to "Gaussian"
    • the option to use G'MIC "Bilateral smoothing" as blurring operator has been added.
      This usually produces results with less evident halos. Idea taken from here:
  • Added shadows/highlights clipping warning in preview area
  • Replaced text of zoom buttons with icons from http://studiojunkyard.github.io/LibreICONS/
  • Added status indicator at the bottom of the image preview area.
    The possible configurations are:
    • "ready" + green indicator: the preview area is up-to-date and the processing engine is idle
    • "processing" + red indicator: the preview area is being updated
    • "caching" + orange indicator: the preview area is up-to-date but the processing engine is performing some background caching. In this case, further updates of the preview area might be slower than usual
    • "exporting" + red indicator: the processing engine is busy exporting the current image
  • The buttons for switching maps on/off, making a layer sticky and enabling/disabling the layer editing mode
    are now duplicated in the auxiliary controls panel above the layers list
  • When opening a PFI file, if an input image is not found in the path stored in the PFI file it is
    searched in the same folder as the PFI file itself. This allows PFI files to behave as "sidecars",
    and to be easily distributed toghether with the original images.
  • Improved color scheme for tools controls (lighter background)
  • Added alternative overlay blend mode equivalent to GIMP one (very close to soft light)
  • Improved/simplified rendering of preview image:
    • the centering in zoom-to-fit mode is now handled directly by GTK, instead of drawing a black
      border explicitely has it was done before.
    • when in zoom-to-fit mode, the preview image gets properly scaled and re-centered when the right
      controls panel is shown/hidded (see issue #36)
  • Updated G'MIC to version 1.6.5.2
  • Updated French translations (thanks to Patrick Depoix)

Bug fixes:

  • Fixed bug in G'MIC filters under OSX (see https://discuss.pixls.us/t/gmic-stability-under-osx/)
  • Fixed various issues related to the deletion of layers
    (see issue #35)
  • Reduced accuracy of spin button that adjusts the rotation angle in the "scale/rotate" tool
    (see issue #37)
  • Opening a layer map whose tab exists already now activates the tab itself, instead of adding a new one
    (see issue #39)
  • Fixed memory corruption in RAW histogram filling
    (see issue #40 )
  • Improved behaviour of image blender: when two images have a different number of channels or pixel format,
    the blending is set automatically to "passthrough"
    (see issue #40)
