My previous commit broke the autotools build. Apparently when using
g_object_unref(), some C++ symbol leaked into libapppaint.a archive
library, hence the main binaries (e.g. gimp-2.99) could not be linked
without adding -lstdc++ flag:
> /usr/bin/ld: paint/libapppaint.a(gimppaintcore-loops.o): undefined reference to symbol '__gxx_personality_v0@@CXXABI_1.3'
> /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
Not exactly sure why using this GLib function in particular caused this,
but let's just try another approach in order not to link the main binary
with C++ standard lib.
Instead let's manage all GeglOperation allocation in gimp-layer-modes.c
by adding a gimp_layer_modes_exit() function and some static array for
storing operation object of each layer mode.
The GimpOperationLayerMode variable member in DoLayerBlend was not
properly constructed. C++ class constructor can be called by creating
object variables, but with GObject, we have to do it with pointers.
Otherwise here we were only allocating the memory for the struct, but
not actually calling any initialization functions.
Also it would seem that the struct was not initialized at zero, as the
space_fish variable was not NULL when it should (i.e. even with same
composite and blend space), hence composite_to_blend_fish was not NULL
and since the operation was not a valid GeglOperation when entering
gimp_operation_layer_mode_real_process(), we crashed.
Not sure how it went unseen for so long!
So instead let's make the layer_mode class member into a pointer. As
such, I have to properly allocate and free it. This is also why I am
adding a copy constructor which will ref the pointer (otherwise we unref
more than we ref as the default copy constructor would just copy the
pointer).
As per commit ed7ea51fb7, reintroduce
the "Fade" functionality for filters, by incorporating it directly
into GimpFilterTool.
Add "mode" and "opacity" options to GimpOperationSettings, and add
a corresponding "Fade" expander to the GimpFilterTool dialog
allowing to control them.
Reintroduce the FADE layer-mode context, and use it to mark the
layer modes avaialable for fading.
Extend last commit to also disregard the composite space when the
layer mode is trivial and only the source region is included in
compositing, since, in this case, the source color is unmodified.
In gimp_layer_mode_get_format(), disregard the requested composite
space when selecting the format, if the input layer mode is alpha-
only, and the requested composite mode is not UNION, since, in this
case, the layer mode doesn't combine the layer/backdrop colors, and
rather only modifies the alpha of one of them. This allows us to
use the preferred format, avoiding gamma conversion.
This particularly improves the performance of the Eraser tool in
perceptual images.
This commit completely removes the "Edit -> Fade..." feature,
because...
- The main reason is that "fade" requires us to keep two buffers,
instead of one, for each fadeable undo step, doubling (or worse,
since the extra buffer might have higher precision than the
drawable) the space consumed by these steps. This has notable
impact when editing large images. This overhead is incurred even
when not actually using "fade", and since it seems to be very
rarely used, this is too wasteful.
- "Fade" is broken in 2.10: when comitting a filter, we copy the
cached parts of the result into the apply buffer. However, the
result cache sits after the mode node, while the apply buffer
should contain the result of the filter *before* the mode node,
which can lead to wrong results in the general case.
- The same behavior can be trivially achieved "manually", by
duplicating the layer, editing the duplicate, and changing its
opacity/mode.
- If we really want this feature, now that most filters are GEGL
ops, it makes more sense to just add opacity/mode options to the
filter tool, instead of having this be a separate step.
Add a TRIVIAL layer-mode flag, and corresponding
gimp_layer_mode_is_trivial() function, which indicates if the blend
function of a given layer mode is trivial, i.e., either never
modifies the source pixels (for non-subtractive modes), or always
clears the destination pixels (for subtractive modes).
All babl formats now have a space equivalent to a color profile,
determining the format's primaries and TRCs. This commit makes GIMP
aware of this.
libgimp:
- enum GimpPrecision: rename GAMMA values to NON_LINEAR and keep GAMMA
as deprecated aliases, add PERCEPTUAL values so we now have LINEAR,
NON_LINEAR and PERCPTUAL for each encoding, matching the babl
encoding variants RGB, R'G'B' and R~G~B~.
- gimp_color_transform_can_gegl_copy() now returns TRUE if both
profiles can return a babl space, increasing the amount of fast babl
color conversions significantly.
- TODO: no solution yet for getting libgimp drawable proxy buffers in
the right format with space.
plug-ins:
- follow the GimpPrecision change.
- TODO: everything else unchanged and partly broken or sub-optimal,
like setting a new image's color profile too late.
app:
- add enum GimpTRCType { LINEAR, NON_LINEAR, PERCEPTUAL } as
replacement for all "linear" booleans.
- change gimp-babl functions to take babl spaces and GimpTRCType
parameters and support all sorts of new perceptual ~ formats.
- a lot of places changed in the early days of goat invasion didn't
take advantage of gimp-babl utility functions and constructed
formats manually. They all needed revisiting and many now use much
simpler code calling gimp-babl API.
- change gimp_babl_format_get_color_profile() to really extract a
newly allocated color profile from the format, and add
gimp_babl_get_builtin_color_profile() which does the same as
gimp_babl_format_get_color_profile() did before. Visited all callers
to decide whether they are looking for the format's actual profile,
or for one of the builtin profiles, simplifying code that only needs
builtin profiles.
- drawables have a new get_space_api(), get_linear() is now get_trc().
- images now have a "layer space" and an API to get it,
gimp_image_get_layer_format() returns formats in that space.
- an image's layer space is created from the image's color profile,
change gimpimage-color-profile to deal with that correctly
- change many babl_format() calls to babl_format_with_space() and take
the space from passed formats or drawables
- add function gimp_layer_fix_format_space() which replaces the
layer's buffer with one that has the image's layer format, but
doesn't change pixel values
- use gimp_layer_fix_format_space() to make sure layers loaded from
XCF and created by plug-ins have the right space when added to the
image, because it's impossible to always assign the right space upon
layer creation
- "assign color profile" and "discard color profile" now require use
of gimp_layer_fix_format_space() too because the profile is now
embedded in all formats via the space. Add
gimp_image_assign_color_profile() which does all that and call it
instead of a simple gimp_image_set_color_profile(), also from the
PDB set-color-profile functions, which are essentially "assign" and
"discard" calls.
- generally, make sure a new image's color profile is set before
adding layers to it, gimp_image_set_color_profile() is more than
before considered know-what-you-are-doing API.
- take special precaution in all places that call
gimp_drawable_convert_type(), we now must pass a new_profile from
all callers that convert layers within the same image (such as
image_convert_type, image_convert_precision), because the layer's
new space can't be determined from the image's layer format during
the call.
- change all "linear" properties to "trc", in all config objects like
for levels and curves, in the histogram, in the widgets. This results
in some GUI that now has three choices instead of two.
TODO: we might want to reduce that back to two later.
- keep "linear" boolean properties around as compat if needed for file
pasring, but always convert the parsed parsed boolean to
GimpTRCType.
- TODO: the image's "enable color management" switch is currently
broken, will fix that in another commit.
... which determines if a layer mode's blend function only affects
the alpha, maintaining the backdrop's color. This is currently
true only for ERASE, SPLIT, and ANTI_ERASE modes.
Fix a CRITICAL when calling gimp_layer_mode_get_format() with an
AUTO composite space and a NULL preferred format, which is valid:
it means the layer mode is composite-space agnostic (as DISSOLVE
is), and that there's no preferred format.
A NULL preferred format can occur during
gimp_operation_layer_mode_prepare() if the layer's mode node is not
yet attached anything through its "input" or "aux" pads, which is
the case during the call to gimp_layer_update_mode_node() while
constructing the layer's node in gimp_layer_get_node().
Our composite modes don't correspond directly to the Porter-Duff
operators after which they're named, and these names aren't too
descriptive anyway.
Rename the composite modes as follows:
Source Over => Union
Source Atop => Clip to Backdrop
Destination Atop => Clip to Layer
Source In => Intersection
Update relevant code, including UI text, enumerator names, function
names, and action names.
which is just a #define to g_assert for now, but can now easily be
turned into something that does some nicer debugging using our new
stack trace infrastructure. This commit also reverts all constructed()
functions to use assert again.
It was accidentally made applicable to layers by commit
7d345071c7. Only the non-legacy
color-erase mode shoule be applicable to layers (since 2.8 didn't
allow it as a layer mode), while the legacy mode is only available
for painting, and in the fade dialog.
Pass through mode uses the same compositing logic as REPLACE mode,
however, it's a special case of REPLACE, where the layer is already
composited against the backdrop. This allows us to take a few
shortcuts that aren't generally applicable to REPLACE mode.
Add a dedicated op class for pass through mode, derived from the
REPLACE mode op, implementing these shortcuts.
Commit 3635cf04ab moved the special
handling of bottom-layer compositing to GimpOperationLayerMode.
This required giving the op more control over the process()
function of its subclasses. As a temporary workaround, the commit
bypassed the subclasses entirely, using "gimp:layer-mode" for all
modes. This is the reckoning :)
Add a process() virtual function to GimpOperationLayerMode, which
its subclasses should override instead of
GeglOperationPointComposer3's process() functions. Reinstate the
subclasses (by returning the correct op in
gimp_layer_mode_get_oepration()), and have them override this
function.
Improve the way gimp_operation_layer_mode_process() dispatches to
the actual process function, to slightly lower its overhead and
fix some thread-safety issues.
Remove the "function" field of the layer-mode info array, and have
gimp_layer_mode_get_function() return the
GimpOperationLayerMode::process() function of the corresponding
op's class (caching the result, to keep it cheap.) This reduces
redundancy, allows us to make the ops' process() functions private,
and simplifies SSE dispatching (only used by NORMAL mode,
currently.)
Move the blend and composite functions of the non-specialized
layer modes to gimpoperationlayermode-{blend,composite}.[hc],
respectively, to improve code organization.
Move the SSE2 composite functions to a separate file, so that they
can be built as part of libapplayermodes_sse2, allowing
libapplayermodes to be built without SSE2 compiler flags. This
allows building GIMP with SSE acceleration enabled, while running
the resulting binary on a target with no SSE accelration.
Add a "blend_function" field to the layer-mode info array, and use
it to specify the blend function for the non-specialized modes.
This replaces the separate switch() statement that we used
previously.
Remove the "affected_region" field of the layer-mode info array.
We don't need it anymore, since we can go back to using
GimpOperationLayerMode's virtual get_affected_region() function.
Last but not least, a bunch of code cleanups and consistency
adjustments.
GimpFilter's is_last_node field only reflects the item's position
within the parent stack. When a layer is contained in a pass-
through group, it can be the last layer of the group, while not
being the last layer in the graph as a whole (paticularly, if
there are visible layers below the group). In fact, when we have
nested pass-through groups, whether or not a layer is the last
node depends on which group we're considering as the root (since
we exclude the backdrop from the group's projection, resulting in
different graphs for different groups).
Instead of rolling our own graph traversal, just move the relevant
logic to GimpOperationLayerMode, and let GEGL do the work for us.
At processing time, we can tell if we're the last node by checking
if we have any input.
For this to work, GimpOperationLayerMode's process() function needs
to have control over what's going on. Replace the derived op
classes, which override process(), with a call to the layer mode's
function (as per gimp_layer_mode_get_function()) in
GimpOperationLayerMode's process() function. (Well, actually, this
commit keeps the ops around, and just hacks around them in
gimp_layer_mode_get_operation(), because laziness :P)
Keep using the layer's is_last_node property to do the invalidation.
Takes a layer mode and a composite mode, and returns the region
included in the composition.
Use this function in GimpOperationLayerMode, instead of testing
for specific composite modes directly. Will also be used by
the next commit.
Indentation cleanup in gimp_layer_modes.h
... since that's the color space it actually works in.
Keep the legacy "Color (HSV)" mode's name as is, wrong as it is,
since, well, that's what it used to be called...
Merge mode lays the source layer on top of the destination, same as
normal mode, however, it assumes the source and destination are two
parts of an original whole, and are therefore mutually exclusive.
This is useful for blending cut & pasted content without artifacts,
or for replacing erased content in general.
Calculates the dot product of the two input colors, and uses that
as the value for all the output color's components. Basically,
a per-pixel mono mixer.
Useful for custom desaturation, component extraction, and crazier
stuff (bump mapping!)
Include erase mode in the menu for layers and general paint tools.
This makes the eraser tool somewhat unnecessary, but allows for
interesting use cases (e.g., airbrush eraser, etc.)
... and get rid of the dedicated op. This gives us support for all
the blend/composite options for this mode.
Rename COLOR_ERASE to COLOR_ERASE_LEGACY, with perceptual blending/
compositing and immutable everything, and add a new COLOR_ERASE
mode, defaulting to linear blending/compositing, with mutable
everything. Modify affected code.
Most modes only modify the *color* of overlapping dest/src regions,
however, erase and color-erase may also reduce their *alpha*, i.e.,
eliminate some of the overlapping content. Flag these modes with
the new SUBTRACTIVE flag, as they require more general compositing
code. The next commit adds the said code.
The mode group switching combo box is hard to discover, until we use the
default group instead of legacy group as default - it is better to make legacy
resemble the full old set to.
which returns an array of modes in the order they would appear in a
GimpLayerModeContext's UI (like tool options or the layers dialog),
without the separators.
Use it in context-commands.c and layers-commands.c instead of static
(and outdated) arrays for the actions that cycle through modes.
