With gimp_guide_custom_new(), you can create a custom guide with a different
style on canvas (other pattern/color/width). A custom guide won't be saved
and could be used, for instance, for specific GEGL op guiding.
Add new XCF property FLOAT_OPACITY and always save both the old 8-bit
and the new float opacity of layers and channels. Float opacity is
saved after the 8-bit one so when loading, it overwrites the limited
8-bit value with the proper precision. Do not increase the XCF version
number because old GIMP versions will simply skip the unknown
FLOAT_OPACITY and keep using the 8-bit value.
- gimp-image-set-filename PDB wrapper: implement the same there in
a few lines
- xcf-load.c: use gimp_image_set_file() instead, and get rid of the
last use of filename in xcf/ in favor of GFile
The possible failure of `g_file_replace()` was overlooked, as well as
the error which may have been created and could be useful information
for the developers.
The "filename" parameter must be in UTF-8 and in URI format (for
instance file://path for local files, and not just a path).
Cf. `g_file_new_for_uri()` documentation:
@uri: a UTF-8 string containing a URI
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.
Get rid of most seeking by writing the tile offsets to a table in
memory, instead of directly to the file after each tile. Only seek
back after writing all tiles, in order to save the entire table at
once.
- add gimp_image_get,get_xcf_compat_mode()
- add a compat toggle to GimpFileDialog which is shown and sensitive
only for a save (not export), and if the image structure allows
to save an old version at all. The button also has a tooltip
which explains why it is sensitive and what it does
- add "gboolean xcf_compat" to file_save_dialog_save_image()
- in file_save_dialog_save_image(), call image_set_xcf_compat_mode(TRUE)
only around the call to file_save() and set it to FALSE after saving
- in xcf_save_invoker(), honor the image's XCF compat flag and save an
RLE-compressed XCF if possible
The above is very convoluted and doesn't pass the "xcf_compat" boolean
directly because we can't change the parameters of gimp-xcf-save, and
because the gimp-xcf-save might be called indirectly.
Change XCF saving to never seek past the end of the partially written
file. The only places where we still did this was when skipping the
offset tables for layers, channels, levels and tiles.
Now we write an all-zero offset table first, and then only seek around
in areas of the file that already exist. This also simplifies the code
a bit. Changed comments to make it clear what happens.
Don't use xcf_seek_end() because that seems to be broken on certain
file systems / operating systems / FUSE mounts / whatever. Instead,
seek to explicitly calculated file offsets.
Ported Massimo's patch to master and added comments --Mitch

- use G_FILE_CREATE_NONE instead of 0
- don't put "Could not open <file> for writing: <error>" around the
returned error, the returned message is already verbose
Add gimp_image_get_xcf_version() and use it when saving XCFs. The
function also returns GIMP versions in integer (comparable) and string
form to be used by GUI logic that allows to save compatible files.
and g_warning() for programming errors only.
Use g_printerr() for "normal" errors which may happen in a program
lifetime (in particular corrupted XCF file errors are not necessarily
programming errors).
Our code was planning zlib and fractal compressions for eons, but would
crash against a file which would be actually using these. It means that
if we implement one of these compressions for 2.10, anyone with GIMP 2.8
(and likely earlier too) would crash when opening a legit file using the
new compressions. That's very bad.
Never use g_error() in non-fatale, expected, situations!
- change start() and set_text() to use "format" and "..." instead of
"message", allowing to format progress messages in place
- s/cancelable/cancellable/
- move "cancellable" to be the second argument of start()
and keep GIMP_ICON_TYPE_STOCK_ID as a deprecated alias. Change all
plug-ins accordingly and increase the pluginrc file version number so
it gets regenerated with "icon-name" instead of "stock-id".
when they are added to items, images or globally, from the PDF or an
XCF file. None of the validation functions does anything currently,
they simply return TRUE.
The code was technically correct previously: It wrote the uninitialized
length only as a placeholder to overwrite it later on. Yet it's better
to not confuse tools (or people) analysing the code. Besides that having
0 for the length in the file while the payload is being written may aid
debugging e.g. crashes in that code later on.
