These small glitches have bothered me for a while now, so I finally
fixed these before the dev release!
Basically there were 2 fixes:
1. use the ink extents to compute any drawn area as this is what will be
actually drawn.
2. Not only expose the drawn area of the new text, but also the one of
the previous text in order to be sure all text pixels are correctly
reset (in case the new text is smaller than previous one). I.e. we
must expose the smallest rectangle containing both previous and new
area of text.
(cherry picked from commit 3a50e52ac7)
This will go with the next commit, but I broke it so I can backport the
code without extension handling in gimp-2-10 first.
(cherry picked from commit c7b5977637)
The upper text will be centered on the top quarter of the bottom quarter
of the splash image, whereas the bottom text will be centered on the
bottom quarter of the bottom quarter of the splash (unless the splash is
too small, in which case the double of the layout pixel extents will be
used). Basically don't use absolute pixel values anymore for
positionning. This should all be done relatively since there are
nowadays all kind of display size (and positionning the text 6 pixels to
the bottom, as it was done, may be ok on low density displays, yet will
look ugly on high density screens).
Also write this down in the splash requirements in the release howto so
that splash designers are aware that the bottom quarter of their image
will have to be adapted for printing text.
Apparently former 2/3 value was too big according to some.
This makes the splash take now at most a quarter of the screen area. I
really don't think that's too much anymore.
Whereas we would only scale *down* big pixel images, we should both
scale up or down vector images since such format is made for display at
any size. This way, a vector splash screen is always displayed at ideal
size, whatever your display size.
Current code was using the dimension of the screen as a max size. That
is really too big. 2/3 of the screen size is an acceptable size being
both well visible and not overwhelming.
Also the current code was cropping, not rescaling, the splash image,
which is obviously not an acceptable solution because on a very small
displays, we would end up with ununderstandable piece of a bigger image.
This new code will allow to ship big size default splash image(s), and
display it in an acceptable size on both low and high density displays.
We indeed got a feedback from someone with a 4K display who was saying
the current dev splash screen was tiny on one's display.
Of course, custom splash can still be at any size; but from now on, we
will need for the *default upstream splash image(s)* to be of huge
dimension in order to show up well everywhere (at least Full HD splash,
which is half of a 4K UHD screen).
Animated splash images are still not resized though and will show up at
their default dimension. This means we cannot ship animated splash
screens as a default for the time being (they can still be installed as
custom splash).
Startup functions can now make the progress bar pulse in order
to report that something of unknown duration is in progress.
Call status_callback (NULL, NULL, same_percentage)
Throw away the code that sets the splash image as window background
and always use GtkImage. Due to internal GDK changes since this code
was written, this is now the way to avoid any delay when showing the
image, for whatever reason.

* all files with a GPL header and all COPYING files:
Change licence to GPLv3 (and to LGPLv3 for libgimp).
Cleaned up some copyright headers and regenerated the parsers in
the ImageMap plugin.

* app/gui/splash.c: don't make the upper label bold. This change
compensates for the smaller width of the new splash screen.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=27089
2008-09-30 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/widgets/gimpwidgets-utils.[ch]: added
gimp_pango_layout_set_scale().
* app/gui/splash.c: set a smaller font size on the lower label.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=27088
2008-09-25 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/core/gimp.[ch]: added a 'restored' flag to the Gimp object
and set it in gimp_real_restore(). Added method
gimp_is_restored().
* app/gui/gui.c: call gui_unique_init() in gui_init() instead of
that later in gui_restore_after_callback(). By doing so we start
our DBus service (or message proxy window on Win32) much earlier
in the start process, thus reducing the time frame where two
instances of gimp can be launched.
* app/gui/gui-unique.c
* app/gui/gimpdbusservice.c: wait handling the queued file-open
requests until gimp is fully restored.
* app/gui/splash.c (splash_update): only run one iteration of
the
main loop. Doing it in a while loop can cause us to get stuck if
the gimp-unique service already added an idle handler.

2008-07-21 Michael Natterer <mitch@gimp.org>
* app/gui/splash.c
* plug-ins/common/*.c: don't use gtk_box_pack_start_defaults(),
it got deprecated in GTK+ trunk.

2008-03-27 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/gui/gui.c (gui_init): disable automatic startup
notification.
(gui_restore_after_callback): notify the display enviroment that
the application has finished loading.
* app/gui/splash.c: no need to deal with startup notification
here
any longer.

2006-07-03 Michael Natterer <mitch@gimp.org>
* app/gui/splash.[ch]: added "be_verbose" parameters and be
verbose about which splash image is actually loaded.
* app/gui/gui.c (gui_init): pass gimp->be_verbose to
splash_create().
2006-06-05 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/gui/splash.c (splash_create): connect to "expose-event"
with
G_SIGNAL_CONNECT_AFTER so that the text is rendered on the
image.
2006-06-05 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/gui/splash.c: added back support for animated splashes but
continue to use the optimized code for static splash images.
2005-11-05 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/gui/splash.c: added some commented-out debug output that can
be used to get an idea of where the startup time is being spent.
* app/core/gimp.c
* app/pdb/internal_procs.c
* app/pdb/procedural_db.c
* app/plug-in/plug-ins.c
* tools/pdbgen/app.pl: cosmetic changes.
2005-11-05 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/gui/splash.c (splash_area_expose): set the clip region
instead of just the clip rectangle.
* configure.in: bumped version to 2.3.6.
2004-12-09 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* app/gui/splash.c (splash_update): only expose the area of the
window that actually changed.
* app/plug-in/plug-in-rc.c (plug_in_rc_write): changed the header
and footer to be more in line with the other rc files.
