* Preparations for new release (Gigedit 1.0.0).

1 Version 1.0.0 (2015-07-17)
2
3 * minor fix in configure for cross-compiling
4 * minor Makefile fix for parallel make
5 * use Cairo instead of deprecated gdk drawing primitives
6 * avoid deprecated gtk methods when using newer gtk versions
7 * raised minimum supported gtkmm version to 2.8
8 * ported to gtkmm 3, keeping compatibility with gtkmm 2
9 * gtkmm 3 fix: rewrote the custom widgets (regionchooser and
10 dimregionchooser) so they only draw pixels in the on_draw
11 method. This should make them work again in newer gtkmm 3
12 environments.
13 * added support for new glibmm threads API
14 * gtkmm 3 fix: the WrapLabel custom widget is not needed in gtkmm 3
15 * fixed building on Debian testing (#186)
16 * modernized configure script
17 * added graphical curves for velocity response and crossfade
18 * added "Duplicate Instrument" function
19 * fixed import of 32 bit float wav files
20 * code refactoring: created a PropEdit class for property editor
21 windows, moved Table class from mainwindow to paramedit
22 * minor gui tweaks: made note entry fields a bit wider, set a
23 minimum width for scales
24 * bug fix: avoid stale information in the instrument properties
25 window when a new file is loaded or the instrument is removed
26 * cross fade graph: draw curves of all layers in the same graph
27 * made sure the instruments menu is updated when instruments are
28 added, removed or renamed
29 * fixed name entry field in instrument properties window
30 * use character encoding Windows-1252 for all strings in gig files
31 * show dimension zone start and end as numeric text labels
32 * copying sample informations automatically may now be disabled from the
33 new "Edit" main menu
34 * import 'fine tune' when importing samples with libsndfile
35 * Mac OS X: initialize gtk and gettext with files from base
36 directory of the libgigedit library
37 * Mac OS X: fixed "recently used" in file dialogs
38 * Mac OS X: avoid crash when starting gigedit as an application
39 bundle
40 * Mac OS X: try to launch the GUI on the process's "main" thread
41 * show build date and libgig version number in about dialog
42 * added dialog for editing the CtrlTrigger and Legato midi rules
43 * if there is no region yet, show a red hint text to the user that he may
44 right click on the region chooser area to add a region
45 * added tooltips to main menu entries (was buggy before)
46 * added tooltips to instruments tree view and samples tree view
47 * added various tooltips and adjusted some labels on the region settings
48 pane
49 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: only a small set of possible MIDI controllers
50 was selectable for EG1 controller, EG2 controller and attenuation
51 controller (and no CC number was shown in the combo box). Obviously the
52 additional MIDI controllers can only be used with LinuxSampler, they would
53 not work with Gigasampler/GigaStudio. A warning message will be shown
54 though whenever somebody tries to use one of those extension controllers.
55 * Combine instruments: a new feature that allows to merge a selection of
56 instruments to one new single instrument. It uses the 'layer' dimension
57 to stack up the instruments. This feature is available from the main menu
58 under 'Tools' -> 'Combine Instruments'.
59 * Dimension zone amount: Support for increasing and decreasing the amount of
60 dimension zones by right clicking on the respective zone and either
61 selecting "delete" or "split" in the popup menu.
62 * Combine instruments: generalized this tool to allow combining instruments
63 based on any dimension, not only the 'layer' dimension.
64 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: show dialog window with at least 460x300px on
65 initial usage (was far too small by default).
66 * File Property Dialog: allow viewing and altering the Giga file format
67 version (by combo box).
68 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: added support for viewing and editing
69 dimensions of all regions simultaniously.
70 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing and editing
71 real-time instrument scripts. Instrument scripts are a LinuxSampler
72 extension of the original Giga format and will not load with the
73 GigaStudio software.
74 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing script slots for
75 instruments. Script slots define which scripts shall be executed for an
76 instrument by the sampler and in which order.
77 * Samples tree view on main window: display the amount of references for
78 each sample and show the respective sample in gray color in case it is not
79 referenced at all.
80 * Samples tree view: implemented sample reference browser, which shows a
81 tree with all instruments and their respective regions which reference the
82 selected sample once ore more.
83 * Restructured main menu: duplicated all popup menus to the main menu,
84 automatically switch to the right tree view tab when either selecting the
85 "Sample", "Instrument" or "Script" main menu entry.
86 * Dimension Region Selector: implemented multi zone selection by press and
87 hold CTRL key.
88 * Dimension Region Selector: show bottom and upper limit values for all
89 dimension zones, not just the currently selected ones.
90 * Dimension Region Selector: Fixed drawing issues when zone sizes were
91 altered by mouse drag and labels being displayed at wrong positions.
92 * Region Chooser: Double click opens dimension manager dialog.
93 * Dimension Manager: Clicking on dimension type cell of an existing dimension
94 opens a popup to alter the dimension type.
95 * Script Tree: Double click opens script editor.
96 * Fixed potential crash if exception was thrown while opening a gig file.
97 * Added support for visual progress bar while saving a gig file.
98 * Automatically switch the sampler's (audible) instrument whenever another
99 instrument was selected in gigedit (this default behavior can be switched
100 off in the settings menu of gigedit).
101 * Dimension Region Editor: Show coarse sample format info (audio channels,
102 bit depth, sample rate) and unique sample ID (since the gig format allows
103 different samples to have the same name).
104 * Dimension Region Editor: Added button "Select Sample" on the sample tab,
105 which allows to conveniently select the dimension region's sample on the
106 left hand side's samples tree view.
107 * Sample Referenve View Dialog: Clicking on a reference in the list closes
108 the dialog and jumps directly to the respective instrument, region and
109 dimension region the respective sample reference is located at.
110 * Fixed instruments, samples and scripts to appear twice after save.
111 * Implemented reordering of instruments by drag & drop.
112 * Implemented replacing of existing samples.
113 * Added "X" button next to sample reference field, which allows to remove
114 the current sample reference, allowing to create a "silent case" where
115 no sample shall be played.
116 * Fixed file name disappearing from title bar on certain actions.
117 * Added new menu item "View"->"Refresh All".
118 * Added new menu item "Samples"->"Remove Unused Samples".
119 * Region Chooser: when moving a region around automatically move the
120 keyboard position dependent pitch accordingly (can be turned off with
121 "Settings"->"Move root key with region moved").
122
123 Version 0.2.0 (2009-07-31)

125 * fixed file properties dialog - properties now can be edited
126 * gig files where regions are not internally ordered are now handled
127 * the resize mouse pointer is not shown anymore for regions that
128 can't be resized
129 * the region and dimregion chooser widgets are now resizable
130 * bugfix: sometimes you could not delete more than one dimension
131 * filter headers are now also greyed out when the filter is inactive
132 * autoconf fix: LS plugin dirs with digits in their prefix
133 (e.g. "/usr/lib64/foo") are now resolved in relative dirs as well
134 (show a warning when resolving the relative path failed)
135 * keys on the virtual keyboard now highlight on note on events on
136 sampler side
137 * virtual keyboard can now trigger notes for the sampler (only in
138 live-mode of course)
139 * implemented alternative behavior for the virtual MIDI keyboard
140 (selectable by combobox below the keyboard)
141 * show absolute velocity value of note-on & note-off events below
142 the virtual MIDI keyboard
143 * renamed misleading names regarding the gig format's "keyswitching"
144 feature (the dimension is now displayed as "keyswitching" instead of
145 "keyboard" in the dimregchooser widget and the two parameters for
146 defining the actual keyswitching area on the keyboard in the instruments
147 properties dialog are now called "Keyswitching range low/high" instead of
148 "Dimension key range low/high")

151 * bugfix: dimension manager window didn't update when another region
152 was selected (#78)
