Replaced KDE (older, KDE4, in fact) specific icon and
launcher (.desktop file) installation & uninstallaton
invocations in Makefile with those that use Freedesktop.org
`xdg-...` tools.
Ability to disable stereo panning effect (e.g., paint brush, UI
elements sound effect feedback, etc.), useful for users with
hearing impairment in one ear, or situations where one speaker or
headphone is being used. Use "--nostereo" command-line option
or "nostereo=yes" config. file option.
The thumbnails for starters & templates are NOT being re-generated
when the source images are modified -- only when the thumbnail is
missing. Needs an update to the target's prerequisites
(but I'm very rusty with this level of Makefile magic).
Also, update some Starter source images so they work better with
flood fill (Bald Eagle, World map, Gecko).
"Fill", as a new main-toolbar tool, was not recording snapshots
of the image for the "Undo" tool. Mended.
However, also updated the tool so that it doesn't _bother_ recording
into the undo buffer if the fill action is a no-op (e.g., clicking
the same spot a second time, or otherwise attempting to fill an
area with a color that's identical to what's already on the canvas).
Also generating and installing thumbnails of Template images,
thus getting "New" dialog to open extremely quickly.
(Pretty much "instantaneously" on my 8 year old laptop with
Intel i3 @ ~2GHz and Intel 320-series SSD (214 MB/s).)
Providing better command-line args to ImageMagick `convert` to
produce nice-looking thumbnail PNGs of Starter images.
(N.B. - I'm using "ImageMagick" Version: 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.7)
Replace the somewhat-recently-added "nothing" item in the tool bar
with the "Fill" tool, which has been converted back from a Magic tool
to a regular tool.
Also, change bash "==" to sh "=" in "if [ ... ]" tests in Makefile.
Also, link to math library (via "-lm") to make sure "max()" is available to
magic tools.
Also, add missing mention of "--newcolorslast" and "--newcolorsfirst" to manpage.
Respond to a SIGUSR1 or SIGUSR2 signal by configuring itself
for autosave, saving a new file, or overwriting the current,
respectively, and sending itself a SIGTERM (which _generally_
causes Tux Paint to quit, depending on where you are in the UI).
Closes https://sourceforge.net/p/tuxpaint/feature-requests/188/
New option to place color palette items at the end of the "New"
dialog, rather than at the beginning. Useful for when users
would want to pick from a set of Starters and/or Templates,
e.g., in a school or museum environment.
Available via command-line option "--newcolorslast", and
config file setting "newcolorslast=yes". (And anti-option to
override config file settings, "--newcolorsfirst" and "...=no",
which represents the original behavior, which continues to be
the default).
Suggested by Bernard Verhaeghe.
Bumping to 0.9.24; going to add a new feature momentarily.
Improved usage output (e.g., that of "tuxpaint --help"); broke
the options into groups that match the tabs in Tux Paint Config.,
added some missing options.
They're in a new location over on John P.'s website
(should we purhapse integrate them into Tux Paint proper?)
(h/t sechidis & whoever on #tux4kids IRC channel who helped them)
Documenting Mark Kim's recent changes:
* Less CPU-hungry progress bar (during Stamp loading)
* Verbose debugging options
* (Also, mentioned debugging _at all_, in INSTALL.txt)
Bumping version to 0.9.23a, to match the test build he's working
on for macOS.
I forgot to make sure macos/Info.plist had the latest version # and
release date, before tagging and releasing source code. Adding a checklist
of places to double-check for properly-updated version #s and/or release dates.
No longer saying "By Bill Kendrick", since so many more people
have added so much to the project over the years.
(I'm basically website maintainer & project manager these days :) )
Documenting a few recent changes & contributors.
Also, move AUTHORS out of docs/en/ and back into docs/ top-level dir
(since it's unlikely to get translated & maintained!)
Rereated full-window screenshots (showing canvas vs tools vs
colors vs selector vs open dialog) using 0.9.23; the earlier images
were from forever ago.
