GIMP 1.1 Released!
|
||||
GIMP 1.1 - New features -*- text -*-
|
||||
|
||||
The following list tries to describe all the new features that are
|
||||
already implemented or currently being worked on. I cannot guarantee
|
||||
that I describe everything correctly, since for most items I haven't
|
||||
read the code but only looked at the ChangeLog entry. I can however
|
||||
guarantee that a few things are missing.
|
||||
|
||||
Older items are on top, newer ones further down the list. At the end a
|
||||
few common things are listed.
|
||||
|
||||
XInput support
|
||||
GIMP does now support special input devices like drawing tablets by
|
||||
default. It depends on the device being supported by your
|
||||
XServer. This is true for example for Wacom drawing
|
||||
tablets. Support for multiple devices, pressure and tilt
|
||||
sensitivity is slowly added to all paint tools.
|
||||
|
||||
Ink tool
|
||||
A nice new toy that really comes to life if you have an extended
|
||||
input device as described above.
|
||||
|
||||
'File New' dialog
|
||||
The new dialog for creating new images allows to use real life
|
||||
units like centimeters and inches along with a resolution entry.
|
||||
|
||||
Hex display
|
||||
A small but nifty feature was added to the Color Picker: It know
|
||||
displays the HEX triplet of the selected color. Useful for WEB
|
||||
artists.
|
||||
|
||||
Pop-up button
|
||||
The small rectangle between the rulers in the upper left corner of
|
||||
the image window now gives access to the menu. Useful for people
|
||||
with tablets or two-button mice.
|
||||
|
||||
Status bar
|
||||
The image display know has a status bar. Plug-ins display their
|
||||
progress there and your mouse coordinates are displayed. Most tools
|
||||
use it too. The Selection tool for example shows the selection size
|
||||
while you drag. And don't worry, it's possible to hide the
|
||||
status bar to save screen estate.
|
||||
|
||||
GUI enhancements
|
||||
Lots of nifty enhancements to the user interface. Spinbuttons are
|
||||
used in a lot of places. More stuff like that has to be added in
|
||||
the future...
|
||||
|
||||
Session management
|
||||
GIMP remembers window positions and sizes and restores them on
|
||||
startup. Not currently working.
|
||||
|
||||
Selections
|
||||
New algorithms are now used to grow and shrink the selection. The
|
||||
result looks much better!
|
||||
|
||||
PDB interface
|
||||
A lot more internal functions are now exported to the PDB. This
|
||||
should for example allow the GIMP Animation Plugin to work without
|
||||
changes to the GIMP core.
|
||||
|
||||
Better tile-caching
|
||||
Tiles are now more intelligently cached and a threaded process
|
||||
tries to swap out dirty tiles before you run out of physical
|
||||
memory.
|
||||
|
||||
Copy On Write
|
||||
The MAD-COW patches that appeared too late to get integrated into
|
||||
GIMP-1.0 are now integrated. And...its FASTER!!
|
||||
|
||||
Document Index
|
||||
The document index keeps track of the images you used with The
|
||||
GIMP. You can even drag in an image from a file-manager (GNOME MC
|
||||
for example).
|
||||
|
||||
Editable Brushes
|
||||
Well, editable brushes still need some work, but the basics are
|
||||
there...
|
||||
|
||||
Fixed size selections
|
||||
The size or the aspect ratio of selections can now be entered
|
||||
numerically as well.
|
||||
|
||||
Script-Fu interface improvements
|
||||
The Script-Fu dialog now allows a whole bunch of entry widgets,
|
||||
like selectors for fonts, brushes, gradients and patterns. Strings
|
||||
can be entered without the nasty quotes and numerical entries can
|
||||
use sliders and spinbuttons. Most of the scripts were already
|
||||
updated.
|
||||
|
||||
Quick Reference
|
||||
The Quick Reference sheet looks much better and holds more
|
||||
information. A must-have for your desktop.
|
||||
|
||||
Transform Tool UI
|
||||
The user interface for the Transform tool has seen a major
|
||||
overhaul. It now offers a new 'Corrective' mode that for example
|
||||
makes it easy to correct slightly rotated scans.
|
||||
|
||||
Color representation
|
||||
GIMP now uses GdkRGB to provide better dithering for non truecolor
|
||||
displays. This should also speed GIMP up a bit.
|
||||
|
||||
Parasites
|
||||
Arbitrary data can be attached to an image and be retrieved later.
|
||||
|
||||
Tattoos
|
||||
A unique stamp can be attached to drawables. That way a plug-in can
|
||||
easily keep track of layers.
|
||||
|
||||
Dialogs
|
||||
A few dialogs can now be controlled via the PDB. That allows a
|
||||
plug-in to use the internal dialogs to select brushes, patterns and
|
||||
gradients.
|
||||
|
||||
Idle-Renderer
|
||||
Display re-rendering is now handled in an interruptible
|
||||
asynchronous thread. This makes The GIMP more responsive especially
|
||||
when working with the Layers-dialog.
|
||||
|
||||
Resolution support
|
||||
Each image now has a resolution associated with it. This needs to
|
||||
be integrated better into the GUI, but there are already a few file
|
||||
plug-ins that make use of this.
|
||||
|
||||
GimpPerl
|
||||
The GIMP-Perl extension is now part of GIMP-1.1.
|
||||
|
||||
Monitor resolution
|
||||
The image can now be displayed in float scale factors. If GIMP
|
||||
knows about your monitor resolution it displays one inch as one
|
||||
inch. Still needs some work...
|
||||
|
||||
Help in the DB Browser
|
||||
The DB Browser now also display the help that is available for a
|
||||
lot of functions in the PDB.
|
||||
|
||||
Internationalization
|
||||
National Language Support is coming!
|
||||
|
||||
New plug-ins
|
||||
Various new plug-ins were added. More have appeared in the Registry
|
||||
and wait to be added or updated. A few nice ones that are now
|
||||
included:
|
||||
|
||||
* WaterSelect - a nifty way to select colors
|
||||
* NewsPrint - whee, you have to see that
|
||||
* Guillotine - slices the image up along its guides
|
||||
|
||||
Internals
|
||||
Lots of changes were made to GIMP internals that I don't understand
|
||||
correctly, like objectification and removal of the image ID
|
||||
system. Read the ChangeLog yourself to figure this out.
|
||||
|
||||
GTK+ compatibility
|
||||
GIMP 1.1 makes use of the development version of GTK+. Therefore a
|
||||
whole lot of work has been put in following the GTK+ development
|
||||
and keeping The GIMP in sync.
|
||||
|
||||
Plug-ins and Scripts
|
||||
Various plug-ins and scripts not mentioned above have been updated
|
||||
or fixed to work with changes in the GIMP core or GTK+. One day I
|
||||
might add a list of all changed plug-ins to this list...
|
||||
|
||||
Miscellaneous
|
||||
- The painting functions (brush, pencil, airbrush, etc.) have been
|
||||
optimized.
|
||||
- The GAP plugin, which has some essential animation features, is
|
||||
being integrated into GIMP.
|
||||
- The font selector has been redesigned.
|
||||
- The new, slightly incomplete MAINTAINERS file should help track
|
||||
responsibility and expertise for various GIMP parts.
