Our composite modes don't correspond directly to the Porter-Duff
operators after which they're named, and these names aren't too
descriptive anyway.
Rename the composite modes as follows:
Source Over => Union
Source Atop => Clip to Backdrop
Destination Atop => Clip to Layer
Source In => Intersection
Update relevant code, including UI text, enumerator names, function
names, and action names.
... since that's the color space it actually works in.
Keep the legacy "Color (HSV)" mode's name as is, wrong as it is,
since, well, that's what it used to be called...
Merge mode lays the source layer on top of the destination, same as
normal mode, however, it assumes the source and destination are two
parts of an original whole, and are therefore mutually exclusive.
This is useful for blending cut & pasted content without artifacts,
or for replacing erased content in general.
Calculates the dot product of the two input colors, and uses that
as the value for all the output color's components. Basically,
a per-pixel mono mixer.
Useful for custom desaturation, component extraction, and crazier
stuff (bump mapping!)
Include erase mode in the menu for layers and general paint tools.
This makes the eraser tool somewhat unnecessary, but allows for
interesting use cases (e.g., airbrush eraser, etc.)
... and get rid of the dedicated op. This gives us support for all
the blend/composite options for this mode.
Rename COLOR_ERASE to COLOR_ERASE_LEGACY, with perceptual blending/
compositing and immutable everything, and add a new COLOR_ERASE
mode, defaulting to linear blending/compositing, with mutable
everything. Modify affected code.
being exported to libgimp, and having a non-exported value, this is a
horrible mess like with GimpLayerMode, but at least the cruft value
names are deprecated now.
Similar to the Photoshop mode of the same name. Assigns
either 0 or 1 to each of the channels, depending on whether the
sum of source and destination channel values is less than, or
greater than (or equals to), one, respectively.
This is equivalent to inverting the source, and using it to perform
per-pixel, per-channel threshold against the destination, which is
useful for various effects.
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.
For operations needing to override default behavior sub-classes should still be
used.
This commit also enables pinligh, vividlight and linearlight blend mode modes
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.
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.
It makes little sense to keep them in one header and parse them with a
pile of perl, just to generate them in another header. Simply keep
them in a place everybody depends on.
