In gimp_image_merge_layers() -- the internal function used by the
various layer-merging/flattenning functions -- process the merged-
layer graph in chunks, using gimp_gegl_apply_operation(), instead
of in one go, using gegl_node_blit_buffer(). Processing in chunks
better utilizes the cache, since it reduces the size of
intermediate buffers, reducing the chances of hitting the swap when
merging large images (see, for example, issue #3012.)
Additionally, this allows us to show progress indication. Have the
relevant gimpimage-merge functions take a GimpProgress, and pass it
down to gimp_image_merge_layers(). Adapt all callers.
(cherry picked from commit e83d8ac4f2)
Add "gboolean merge_active_group" to gimp_image_merge_visible_layers()
and pass FALSE from the PDB wrapper so plug-in invoked layer merging
always acts on the toplevel container as it did in 2.6. Do the same
when opening an image as layer.
Also, added a "Merge within active group only" toggle to the merge
layers dialog and pass it down to the core, but default to TRUE here
so.
