# Line 1  Line 1 
1  Version CVS HEAD  Version SVN trunk (?)
2    
3      * Script Editor: Fixed some minor issues with vertical line number bar
4        (which was editable, selectable and incorrectly displayed on new scripts).
5      * Translation Fix: MacroEditor.cpp and MacrosSetup.cpp were not under
6        translation control.
7      * Spelling fixes (patch provided by Debian maintainer Jaromír Mikeš).
8      * Added new main menu item "View" -> "Tooltips for Beginners" which allows
9        to disable tooltips intended for newbies only (default: on).
10      * Extended support for keyboard function keys up to F19.
11      * List assigned scripts as colored tooltip when hovering mouse over the
12        "Scripts" column in the instruments list.
13      * Added global keyboard accelerator Shift + Backspace for dropping all script
14        slots from an instrument.
15      * Added option to save as gig v4 file (File -> Properties).
16      * Fixed duplicate items in File -> Properties -> "File Format" combo box.
17      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added combo box "Sustain Release Trigger" which
18        can be used to optionally play release trigger samples on sustain pedal up.
19      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added check box "No note-off release trigger"
20        which allows to disable release trigger samples on regular MIDI note-off.
21      * Fixed compiler errors with Gtk 3.24.x (patch by Miroslav Šulc).
22      * Fixed some compiler warnings
23      * Avoid non-standard offsetof usage (to get rid of gcc warnings)
24      * Use GDK Seat API if available to grab pointer
25      * Improve version checks for pangomm
26      * Fix the instrument list tooltip handling so it doesn't generate
27        GTK assertion error messages
28      * Use English quotation marks in tooltips instead of German
29      * Use multiple columns in controller value popups, as tall popup
30        menus work really badly in some GTK environments

38      * fixed building without linuxsampler on Mac
39      * fixed some compiler and cppcheck warnings
40      * synthesis paremeter page tabs are now scrollable (fixes an issue with
41        GTK 3: default theme uses huge tabs which breaks the overall layout on
42        average window sizes)
43      * Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
44        auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
45      * NKSP Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP syntax
46        highlighting backend.
47      * Script Editor: Some color tweaks (using now same text colors as on
48        the NKSP refrence documentation website).
49      * Script Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP parser
50        backend for displaying parser errors and warnings directly within
51        the source code.
52      * User settings are now automatically saved and restored.
53      * Automatically save & restore window size and position.
54      * Script Editor: Show precise parser error/warning messages as tooltip
55        when the mouse points over the respective location in the script's
56        source code.
57      * Script Editor: Show a question dialog to the user when the editor is
58        to be closed and the script changes have not been applied yet.
59      * Script Editor: Added status bar at the bottom of the script editor
60        window showing the amount (if any) of errors and warnings.
61      * Script Editor: Added menu bar and two initial entries: "Apply" (Ctrl-S)
62        and "Close" (Ctrl-Q).
63      * Script Editor: if editor is used in live-mode, inform the sampler that
64        it needs to automatically reload the script after the script has been
65        altered and applied with the script editor.
66      * Added setting to main menu "View" -> "Auto Restore Window Dimension"
67        (disabled by default since it causes issues on some machines).
68      * Fixed crash after changing a dimension type with the dimension manager
69        dialog.
70      * Script Editor: Fixed editor which did not appear on some systems due
71        to missing icons (using now lists of alternative icon names).
72      * Script Editor: Added "Font Size ..." selection to editor's menu.
73      * Script Editor: Fixed crash on Ctrl + A, followed by Del.
74      * fixed crash when opening dimension manager dialolg multiple times

76      * Show sample group name and CRC-32 checksum on "Sample" tab.
77      * Show instrument index number on instruments list view.
78      * Added multi-row selection support on samples tree view.
79      * Added multi-row selection support on instruments list view.
80      * windows, 32-bit: fixed crashes by making sure the stack in sub
81        threads is 16-byte aligned
82      * windows: look for the data directory in the parent of the dll
83        directory, if the dll directory is called "32" or "64"
84      * Implemented resizing multiple dimension region zones at once, which is
85        controlled by the infamous checkbox trio "all regions",
86        "all dimension splits" and "both channels".
87      * Implemented deleting dimension region zones of all regions at once, which
88        is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
89      * Implemented splitting up dimension region zones of all regions at once,
90        which is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
91      * Show graphical symbol on region that uses loop(s).
92      * Show graphical symbol on region that misses sample reference(s).
93      * Fixed crash on saving file if a sample was requested to be replaced twice
94        by the user.
95      * Implemented fast navigation through regions by keyboard accelerator
96        Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right (on Mac: Cmd+Left and Cmd+Right).
97      * Implemented fast navigation through dimension region zones of currently
98        selected region by keyboard accelerator Alt+Left, Alt+Right, Alt+Up,
99        Alt+Down, as well as simply using the arrow keys alone if the dimension
100        region chooser got focus (i.e. when it was selected by mouse previously).
101      * Color tweaking on selected regions and selected dimension zones.
102      * Dimension Region Chooser: Show main selected case in opaque blue color
103        (like before), but all other selected dimension zones with a blue hatched
104        pattern instead.
105      * Dimension Region Chooser: Show the label of the currently selected
106        dimension in bold font.
107      * Implemented selecting multiple dimension region zones by keyboard with
108        keyboard accelerators Alt+Shift+Left and Alt+Shift+Right.
109      * Implemented copy & paste of DimensionRegion (with Alt+c and Alt+v).
110      * Dimension Region Chooser: Mark all zones auto selected by check box trio
111        with gray hatched pattern.
112      * Region Chooser: Mark all regions which are auto selected by check box
113        "All Regions" with gray hatched pattern.
114      * Introduced "Macro Editor" for adjusting clipboard content before applying
115        it (accessible via Alt+x).
116      * Introduced configurable list of macros which are auto assigned to keyboard
117        accelerators (F1 ... F12) and saved along with the app's config file.
118      * Macro Editor: Fixed deleting rows when delete button was hit without Ctrl
119        being pressed.
120      * Macro Editor: Show combo box with textual options for enum types.
121      * "Macro" main menu section: show macro comments as tooltip.
122      * Macro Editor: Display demangled C++ type names.
123      * Macros Setup: Implemented cloning of macros.
124      * Live mode performance optimization: fixed the editor to be non-responsive
125        for a very long time, which happened if changing instrument parameters of a
126        very large amount of dimension regions was requested.
127      * Macro Editor: Handle boolean parameter types appropriately, i.e. show
128        'Yes' or 'NO' instead of '1' or '0'.
129      * GTK3: Bringing back icons and keyboard accelerators / mnemonics for menus
130        and buttons with GTK3; Cudos to those GTK heros who thought it might be
131        a clever idea to simply remove such features for all users, all devices
132        and all apps by default with GTK3!
133      * Autoconf: check for presence of at least gtk+-2.0-dev.
134      * Instruments list view: show amount of real-time instruments scripts used
135        by instrument.
136      * Script Editor: Fixed Gtk crash while entering a variety of ill formed code
137        like unterminated string literals.
138      * Assigned more useful default dimensions (and default position) for various
139        windows and dialogs (if auto-restore of user's own custom window
140        dimensions is disabled).
141      * Mac fix: Make sure app window appears in front of all other apps.
142      * Script Editor: only if compiled without liblinuxsampler; added support for
143        new NKSP language keyword "synchronized".
144      * Script Editor: strike through code blocks filtered out by the preprocessor.
145      * Combine Tool: Show instruments' index number in the list view.
146      * Combine Tool: Now it allows to select the instruments to be combined
147        already in the main window's instruments list view; then either call the
148        combine instrument dialog from the main menu or use the new keyboard
149        shortcut Ctrl + j.
150      * Combine Tool: Added a vertical list which represents the order of the
151        selected instruments to be combined; dragging them modifies their order.
152      * Combine Tool: After returning from the combine tool dialog, automatically
153        scroll to the newly added (combined) instrument.
154      * Draw icons on individual dimension region zones, similar to the icons
155        already been drawn on regions.
156      * Fixed loop and sample reference icons being displayed incorrectly sometimes,
157        because unused dimension regions were not ignored.
158      * Script Editor: Show line numbers.
159      * Script Editor: Right aligned line numbers.
160      * Script Editor: Fixed font readability issue on Mac.
161      * Added EG state machine options for EG1 and EG2, which may be used to
162        configure whether the individual EG stages may be cancelled.
163      * Fix: after the combine instruments dialog, the new instrument was not
164        correctly displayed by the GUI as being selected.
165      * Fix: automatically reload instrument after script slots have been modified.
166      * Combine Tool: OK button has focus now by default to quickly combine
167        instruments by pressing Return key.
168      * Added keyboard accelerators Shift+F1 to Shift+F12 for quick assigning
169        a script to the currently selected instrument, and an appropriate
170        additional menu "Instruments" -> "Assign Script".
171      * Added keyboard accelerators Ctrl + Arrow Down and Ctrl + Arrow Up for
172        switching between instruments.
173      * Added search filter field which allows to quickly filter the instrument
174        list by case insensitive search tokens.
175      * Fix: navigating between dimension zones by keyboard did sometimes not
176        work after switching from an instrument with different dimension types.
177      * Fix: Sample references view dialog had some odd behaviors, like it did not
178        respond to mouse scroll events for instance.
179      * Debian: Raised Debian compatibility level to Debian 9 "Stretch".
180      * Raised max. pitchbend range to 48 semi tones.
181      * Added experimental support for upcoming GTK(MM)4
182        (for now up to GTKMM 3.91.2 while still preserving backward compatibility
183        down to GTKMM 2).
184      * Re-merged r2845 to compile now with and without Gtk "Stock ID" API
185        (see also r3158).
186      * Visual cosmetics on Gtk 3.
187      * Script Editor: Use consistent font size on all screens and DPI settings.
188    
189    Version 1.0.0 (2015-07-17)
190    
191      * minor fix in configure for cross-compiling
192      * minor Makefile fix for parallel make
193      * use Cairo instead of deprecated gdk drawing primitives
194      * avoid deprecated gtk methods when using newer gtk versions
195      * raised minimum supported gtkmm version to 2.8
196      * ported to gtkmm 3, keeping compatibility with gtkmm 2
197      * gtkmm 3 fix: rewrote the custom widgets (regionchooser and
198        dimregionchooser) so they only draw pixels in the on_draw
199        method. This should make them work again in newer gtkmm 3
200        environments.
201      * added support for new glibmm threads API
202      * gtkmm 3 fix: the WrapLabel custom widget is not needed in gtkmm 3
203      * fixed building on Debian testing (#186)
204      * modernized configure script
205      * added graphical curves for velocity response and crossfade
206      * added "Duplicate Instrument" function
207      * fixed import of 32 bit float wav files
208      * code refactoring: created a PropEdit class for property editor
209        windows, moved Table class from mainwindow to paramedit
210      * minor gui tweaks: made note entry fields a bit wider, set a
211        minimum width for scales
212      * bug fix: avoid stale information in the instrument properties
213        window when a new file is loaded or the instrument is removed
214      * cross fade graph: draw curves of all layers in the same graph
215      * made sure the instruments menu is updated when instruments are
216        added, removed or renamed
217      * fixed name entry field in instrument properties window
218      * use character encoding Windows-1252 for all strings in gig files
219      * show dimension zone start and end as numeric text labels
220      * copying sample informations automatically may now be disabled from the
221        new "Edit" main menu
222      * import 'fine tune' when importing samples with libsndfile
223      * Mac OS X: initialize gtk and gettext with files from base
224        directory of the libgigedit library
225      * Mac OS X: fixed "recently used" in file dialogs
226      * Mac OS X: avoid crash when starting gigedit as an application
227        bundle
228      * Mac OS X: try to launch the GUI on the process's "main" thread
229      * show build date and libgig version number in about dialog
230      * added dialog for editing the CtrlTrigger and Legato midi rules
231      * if there is no region yet, show a red hint text to the user that he may
232        right click on the region chooser area to add a region
233      * added tooltips to main menu entries (was buggy before)
234      * added tooltips to instruments tree view and samples tree view
235      * added various tooltips and adjusted some labels on the region settings
236        pane
237      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: only a small set of possible MIDI controllers
238        was selectable for EG1 controller, EG2 controller and attenuation
239        controller (and no CC number was shown in the combo box). Obviously the
240        additional MIDI controllers can only be used with LinuxSampler, they would
241        not work with Gigasampler/GigaStudio. A warning message will be shown
242        though whenever somebody tries to use one of those extension controllers.
243      * Combine instruments: a new feature that allows to merge a selection of
244        instruments to one new single instrument. It uses the 'layer' dimension
245        to stack up the instruments. This feature is available from the main menu
246        under 'Tools' -> 'Combine Instruments'.
247      * Dimension zone amount: Support for increasing and decreasing the amount of
248        dimension zones by right clicking on the respective zone and either
249        selecting "delete" or "split" in the popup menu.
250      * Combine instruments: generalized this tool to allow combining instruments
251        based on any dimension, not only the 'layer' dimension.
252      * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: show dialog window with at least 460x300px on
253        initial usage (was far too small by default).
254      * File Property Dialog: allow viewing and altering the Giga file format
255        version (by combo box).
256      * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: added support for viewing and editing
257        dimensions of all regions simultaniously.
258      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing and editing
259        real-time instrument scripts. Instrument scripts are a LinuxSampler
260        extension of the original Giga format and will not load with the
261        GigaStudio software.
262      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing script slots for
263        instruments. Script slots define which scripts shall be executed for an
264        instrument by the sampler and in which order.
265      * Samples tree view on main window: display the amount of references for
266        each sample and show the respective sample in gray color in case it is not
267        referenced at all.
268      * Samples tree view: implemented sample reference browser, which shows a
269        tree with all instruments and their respective regions which reference the
270        selected sample once ore more.
271      * Restructured main menu: duplicated all popup menus to the main menu,
272        automatically switch to the right tree view tab when either selecting the
273        "Sample", "Instrument" or "Script" main menu entry.
274      * Dimension Region Selector: implemented multi zone selection by press and
275        hold CTRL key.
276      * Dimension Region Selector: show bottom and upper limit values for all
277        dimension zones, not just the currently selected ones.
278      * Dimension Region Selector: Fixed drawing issues when zone sizes were
279        altered by mouse drag and labels being displayed at wrong positions.
280      * Region Chooser: Double click opens dimension manager dialog.
281      * Dimension Manager: Clicking on dimension type cell of an existing dimension
282        opens a popup to alter the dimension type.
283      * Script Tree: Double click opens script editor.
284      * Fixed potential crash if exception was thrown while opening a gig file.
285      * Added support for visual progress bar while saving a gig file.
286      * Automatically switch the sampler's (audible) instrument whenever another
287        instrument was selected in gigedit (this default behavior can be switched
288        off in the settings menu of gigedit).
289      * Dimension Region Editor: Show coarse sample format info (audio channels,
290        bit depth, sample rate) and unique sample ID (since the gig format allows
291        different samples to have the same name).
292      * Dimension Region Editor: Added button "Select Sample" on the sample tab,
293        which allows to conveniently select the dimension region's sample on the
294        left hand side's samples tree view.
295      * Sample Referenve View Dialog: Clicking on a reference in the list closes
296        the dialog and jumps directly to the respective instrument, region and
297        dimension region the respective sample reference is located at.
298      * Fixed instruments, samples and scripts to appear twice after save.
299      * Implemented reordering of instruments by drag & drop.
300      * Implemented replacing of existing samples.
301      * Added "X" button next to sample reference field, which allows to remove
302        the current sample reference, allowing to create a "silent case" where
303        no sample shall be played.
304      * Fixed file name disappearing from title bar on certain actions.
305      * Added new menu item "View"->"Refresh All".
306      * Added new menu item "Samples"->"Remove Unused Samples".
307      * Region Chooser: when moving a region around automatically move the
308        keyboard position dependent pitch accordingly (can be turned off with
309        "Settings"->"Move root key with region moved").
310      * Added option to main menu for performing "Save" operation with a
311        tempoary file (may perform faster than directly modifying existing
312        .gig file).
313    
314    Version 0.2.0 (2009-07-31)
315    
316      * fixed file properties dialog - properties now can be edited
317      * gig files where regions are not internally ordered are now handled
318      * the resize mouse pointer is not shown anymore for regions that
319        can't be resized
320      * the region and dimregion chooser widgets are now resizable
321      * bugfix: sometimes you could not delete more than one dimension
322      * filter headers are now also greyed out when the filter is inactive
323      * autoconf fix: LS plugin dirs with digits in their prefix
324        (e.g. "/usr/lib64/foo") are now resolved in relative dirs as well
325        (show a warning when resolving the relative path failed)
326      * keys on the virtual keyboard now highlight on note on events on
327        sampler side
328      * virtual keyboard can now trigger notes for the sampler (only in
329        live-mode of course)
330      * implemented alternative behavior for the virtual MIDI keyboard
331        (selectable by combobox below the keyboard)
332      * show absolute velocity value of note-on & note-off events below
333        the virtual MIDI keyboard
334      * renamed misleading names regarding the gig format's "keyswitching"
335        feature (the dimension is now displayed as "keyswitching" instead of
336        "keyboard" in the dimregchooser widget and the two parameters for
337        defining the actual keyswitching area on the keyboard in the instruments
338        properties dialog are now called "Keyswitching range low/high" instead of
339        "Dimension key range low/high")
340      * added "replace all samples" function to samples popup menu
341        (patch by Anders Dahnielson, a bit extended, fixes #73)
342      * bugfix: dimension manager window didn't update when another region
343        was selected (#78)
344      * in "Save As..." dialog set inital filename to "copy_of_<filename>" and
345        show a warning message that saving to the same .gig file will corrupt
346        the sample wave data
347      * fixed compilation with gcc 4.3
348      * the "Add Samples" dialog now remembers current directory (patch by
349        Devin Anderson, fixes #81)
350      * it is now possible to create dimensions where the amount of zones
351        isn't a power of two (patch by Devin Anderson, #89, slightly
352        modified)
353      * fixed configure check for libsndfile loop support
354      * bugfix: when a stereo sample is replaced, make sure both zones of
355        the sample channel dimension get updated with the new sample
356      * minor gui fix: made multi line lables expand to use full width
357      * fixes for building the plugin with MinGW
358      * added rpm packaging file
359        (patch by Devin Anderson, slightly modified, fixes #88)
360      * made all visible strings translatable
361      * bugfix: inform the sampler when new file(s) has been imported on save
362        operation (#82)
363      * updated LinuxSampler plugin of gigedit to the latest liblinuxsampler
