we do allow some new features here, if they are not too invasive.

Overview of Changes from GIMP 2.10.2 to GIMP 2.10.4

===================================================

@ -27,47 +28,50 @@ User Interface:
|
||||
|
||||
- The Dashboard dockable dialog now has a 'Memory' group that shows
|
||||
memory-usage information: the currently used memory size, the
|
||||
available physical memory size, and the total physical memory size.
|
||||
It can also show the tile-cache size, for comparison against the
|
||||
other memory stats. Note that the upper-bound of the meter is the
|
||||
physical memory size, so the memory usage may be over 100% when GIMP
|
||||
uses the swap.
|
||||
- The Dashboard dockable dialog now has "read" and "written" fields
|
||||
in the dashboard swap group, which report the total amount of data
|
||||
available physical memory size, and the total physical memory
|
||||
size. It can also show the tile-cache size, for comparison
|

against the other memory stats. Note that the upper-bound of the

- The Dashboard dockable dialog now has "read" and "written" fields in
|
||||
the dashboard swap group, which report the total amount of data
|
||||
read-from/written-to the tile swap, respetively. Additionally, the
|
||||
swap busy indicator (used as the meter's LED) has been improved, so
|
||||
that it's active whenever data has been read-from/written-to the swap
|
||||
during the last sampling interval, rather than at the point of sampling.
|
||||
- Fonts can now be tagged. The user interface is the same as for brushes,
|
||||
patterns etc.

gimp-tool-ellipse-select made symmetrical.

Usability:
|
||||
|
||||
- When a plug-in cannot be applied to an image because of mismatch in image
|
||||
types (e.g. layer has no alpha or image is greyscale), GIMP now displays
|
||||
a message listing supported image types for this plug-in.

Tools:

|

- The Measurement tool now has an "Auto straighten" option allowing to
|
||||
rotate the active drawable (layer, channel…) so that the measurement
|
||||
line is used as horizon. As other transform tools, the feature will
|
||||
work on linked drawables as well.
|
||||
- The Smudge tool now paints correctly on images with a color profile
|
||||
other than the GIMP's built-in one.

optional. The default choice can be set in the Preferences dialog.
