in gimp_procedure_config_begin_export() and end_export(). It uses
both the "gimp-comment" parasite and gimp_get_default_comment() and
syncs them with the config's "comment" property if it has one.
as in, sync it with a "comment" property on the config if one
exists. Also allow gimp_procedure_config_begin_export() and
end_export() to skip GimpMetadata handling, for file formats which
don't support it.
Add gimp_procedure_config_begin_export() and end_export() which
are wrappers around begin_run() and end_run() and additionally
pretty much completely manage GimpMetadata handling.
A GimpProcedureConfig can provide boolean properties "save-exif",
"save-xmp" etc. in order to have them automatically managed by
begin_export() and end_export(). This also restores the feature of
overriding the procedure's saved default values with export
preferences, but not the values from the last export, like it
used to be in 2.10.
Move gimp_image_metadata_save_prepare() and save_finish() (which are
now completely handled by GimpProcedureConfig) from libgimpui to
libgimp, but keep their declarations in the libgimpui header. Not
perfect, but not finished either.
Also fix gimp_image_metadata_save_prepare() to set the affected
GimpMetadataSaveFlags to 0 when the image has no metadata at all.
Add internal GimpProcedureConfig API to load/save "default values"
which are to be treated as if they were the hardcoded GParamSpec
defaults, but user-configurable. Also make all other load/save
functions available to other libgimp files.
In gimp_procedure_run(), if incomplete arguments are passed, don't
just complete them with the GParamSpec defaults, but look up the
user-saved defaults and use them if they exist. This happens before
everything else and brings back the PNG export feature of using
user-saved defaults also in non-interactive mode (but for all
procedures not just PNG export).
In GimpProcedureDialog, add "Load Defaults" and "Save Defaults"
buttons, they are the only way of managing the user-configurable
procedure defaults.
When clicking "Reset", show a popover with the reset options "Initial
Values" and "Factory Defaults".
and remember them internally between begin_run() and end_run().
Simplifies plug-in code even more.
Move the begin_run() before gimp_export_image() block in all export
plug-ins.
Aux arguments are arbitrary values the procedure wants managed and
remembered across invocations in GimpProcedureConfig. They are not
passed to run() and are not known to the PDB, they only exist in the
procedure's config object.
When non-NULL, the code tries to load/save image-specific last used
values from/to the image using a parasite. This is meant to be used by
file export plug-ins.
