1 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).

12
13 * allow building with G/GDK/GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
14 * fixed building without linuxsampler on Mac
15 * fixed some compiler and cppcheck warnings
16 * synthesis paremeter page tabs are now scrollable (fixes an issue with
17 GTK 3: default theme uses huge tabs which breaks the overall layout on
18 average window sizes)
19 * Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
20 auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
21 * NKSP Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP syntax
22 highlighting backend.
23 * Script Editor: Some color tweaks (using now same text colors as on
24 the NKSP refrence documentation website).
25 * Script Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP parser
26 backend for displaying parser errors and warnings directly within
27 the source code.
28 * User settings are now automatically saved and restored.
29 * Automatically save & restore window size and position.
30 * Script Editor: Show precise parser error/warning messages as tooltip
31 when the mouse points over the respective location in the script's
32 source code.
33 * Script Editor: Show a question dialog to the user when the editor is
34 to be closed and the script changes have not been applied yet.
35 * Script Editor: Added status bar at the bottom of the script editor
36 window showing the amount (if any) of errors and warnings.
37 * Script Editor: Added menu bar and two initial entries: "Apply" (Ctrl-S)
38 and "Close" (Ctrl-Q).
39 * Script Editor: if editor is used in live-mode, inform the sampler that
40 it needs to automatically reload the script after the script has been
41 altered and applied with the script editor.
42 * Added setting to main menu "View" -> "Auto Restore Window Dimension"
43 (disabled by default since it causes issues on some machines).
44 * Fixed crash after changing a dimension type with the dimension manager
45 dialog.
46 * Script Editor: Fixed editor which did not appear on some systems due
47 to missing icons (using now lists of alternative icon names).
48 * Script Editor: Added "Font Size ..." selection to editor's menu.
49 * Script Editor: Fixed crash on Ctrl + A, followed by Del.
50 * fixed crash when opening dimension manager dialolg multiple times
51 (and i.e. adding or removing dimensions each time)
52 * Show sample group name and CRC-32 checksum on "Sample" tab.
53 * Show instrument index number on instruments list view.
54 * Added multi-row selection support on samples tree view.
55 * Added multi-row selection support on instruments list view.
56 * windows, 32-bit: fixed crashes by making sure the stack in sub
57 threads is 16-byte aligned
58 * windows: look for the data directory in the parent of the dll
59 directory, if the dll directory is called "32" or "64"
60 * Implemented resizing multiple dimension region zones at once, which is
61 controlled by the infamous checkbox trio "all regions",
62 "all dimension splits" and "both channels".
63 * Implemented deleting dimension region zones of all regions at once, which
64 is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
65 * Implemented splitting up dimension region zones of all regions at once,
66 which is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
67 * Show graphical symbol on region that uses loop(s).
68 * Show graphical symbol on region that misses sample reference(s).
69 * Fixed crash on saving file if a sample was requested to be replaced twice
70 by the user.
71 * Implemented fast navigation through regions by keyboard accelerator
72 Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right (on Mac: Cmd+Left and Cmd+Right).
73 * Implemented fast navigation through dimension region zones of currently
74 selected region by keyboard accelerator Alt+Left, Alt+Right, Alt+Up,
75 Alt+Down, as well as simply using the arrow keys alone if the dimension
76 region chooser got focus (i.e. when it was selected by mouse previously).
77 * Color tweaking on selected regions and selected dimension zones.
78 * Dimension Region Chooser: Show main selected case in opaque blue color
79 (like before), but all other selected dimension zones with a blue hatched
80 pattern instead.
81 * Dimension Region Chooser: Show the label of the currently selected
82 dimension in bold font.
83 * Implemented selecting multiple dimension region zones by keyboard with
84 keyboard accelerators Alt+Shift+Left and Alt+Shift+Right.
85 * Implemented copy & paste of DimensionRegion (with Alt+c and Alt+v).
86 * Dimension Region Chooser: Mark all zones auto selected by check box trio
87 with gray hatched pattern.
88 * Region Chooser: Mark all regions which are auto selected by check box
89 "All Regions" with gray hatched pattern.
90 * Introduced "Macro Editor" for adjusting clipboard content before applying
91 it (accessible via Alt+x).
92 * Introduced configurable list of macros which are auto assigned to keyboard
93 accelerators (F1 ... F12) and saved along with the app's config file.
94 * Macro Editor: Fixed deleting rows when delete button was hit without Ctrl
95 being pressed.
96 * Macro Editor: Show combo box with textual options for enum types.
97 * "Macro" main menu section: show macro comments as tooltip.
98 * Macro Editor: Display demangled C++ type names.
99 * Macros Setup: Implemented cloning of macros.
100 * Live mode performance optimization: fixed the editor to be non-responsive
101 for a very long time, which happened if changing instrument parameters of a
102 very large amount of dimension regions was requested.
103 * Macro Editor: Handle boolean parameter types appropriately, i.e. show
104 'Yes' or 'NO' instead of '1' or '0'.
105 * GTK3: Bringing back icons and keyboard accelerators / mnemonics for menus
106 and buttons with GTK3; Cudos to those GTK heros who thought it might be
107 a clever idea to simply remove such features for all users, all devices
108 and all apps by default with GTK3!
109 * Autoconf: check for presence of at least gtk+-2.0-dev.
110 * Instruments list view: show amount of real-time instruments scripts used
111 by instrument.
112 * Script Editor: Fixed Gtk crash while entering a variety of ill formed code
113 like unterminated string literals.
114 * Assigned more useful default dimensions (and default position) for various
115 windows and dialogs (if auto-restore of user's own custom window
116 dimensions is disabled).
117 * Mac fix: Make sure app window appears in front of all other apps.
118 * Script Editor: only if compiled without liblinuxsampler; added support for
119 new NKSP language keyword "synchronized".
120 * Script Editor: strike through code blocks filtered out by the preprocessor.
121 * Combine Tool: Show instruments' index number in the list view.
122 * Combine Tool: Now it allows to select the instruments to be combined
123 already in the main window's instruments list view; then either call the
124 combine instrument dialog from the main menu or use the new keyboard
125 shortcut Ctrl + j.
126 * Combine Tool: Added a vertical list which represents the order of the
127 selected instruments to be combined; dragging them modifies their order.
128 * Combine Tool: After returning from the combine tool dialog, automatically
129 scroll to the newly added (combined) instrument.
130 * Draw icons on individual dimension region zones, similar to the icons
131 already been drawn on regions.
132 * Fixed loop and sample reference icons being displayed incorrectly sometimes,
133 because unused dimension regions were not ignored.
134 * Script Editor: Show line numbers.
135 * Script Editor: Right aligned line numbers.
136 * Script Editor: Fixed font readability issue on Mac.
137 * Added EG state machine options for EG1 and EG2, which may be used to
138 configure whether the individual EG stages may be cancelled.
139 * Fix: after the combine instruments dialog, the new instrument was not
140 correctly displayed by the GUI as being selected.
141 * Fix: automatically reload instrument after script slots have been modified.
142 * Combine Tool: OK button has focus now by default to quickly combine
143 instruments by pressing Return key.
144 * Added keyboard accelerators Shift+F1 to Shift+F12 for quick assigning
145 a script to the currently selected instrument, and an appropriate
146 additional menu "Instruments" -> "Assign Script".
147 * Added keyboard accelerators Ctrl + Arrow Down and Ctrl + Arrow Up for
148 switching between instruments.
149 * Added search filter field which allows to quickly filter the instrument
150 list by case insensitive search tokens.
151 * Fix: navigating between dimension zones by keyboard did sometimes not
152 work after switching from an instrument with different dimension types.
153 * Fix: Sample references view dialog had some odd behaviors, like it did not
154 respond to mouse scroll events for instance.
155 * Debian: Raised Debian compatibility level to Debian 9 "Stretch".
156 * Raised max. pitchbend range to 48 semi tones.
157 * Added experimental support for upcoming GTK(MM)4
158 (for now up to GTKMM 3.91.2 while still preserving backward compatibility
159 down to GTKMM 2).
160 * Re-merged r2845 to compile now with and without Gtk "Stock ID" API
161 (see also r3158).
162 * Visual cosmetics on Gtk 3.
163 * Script Editor: Use consistent font size on all screens and DPI settings.
164
165 Version 1.0.0 (2015-07-17)
166
167 * minor fix in configure for cross-compiling
168 * minor Makefile fix for parallel make
169 * use Cairo instead of deprecated gdk drawing primitives

171 * raised minimum supported gtkmm version to 2.8
172 * ported to gtkmm 3, keeping compatibility with gtkmm 2
173 * gtkmm 3 fix: rewrote the custom widgets (regionchooser and
174 dimregionchooser) so they only draw pixels in the on_draw
175 method. This should make them work again in newer gtkmm 3
176 environments.
177 * added support for new glibmm threads API
178 * gtkmm 3 fix: the WrapLabel custom widget is not needed in gtkmm 3
179 * fixed building on Debian testing (#186)
180 * modernized configure script
181 * added graphical curves for velocity response and crossfade
182 * added "Duplicate Instrument" function

184 * code refactoring: created a PropEdit class for property editor
185 windows, moved Table class from mainwindow to paramedit
186 * minor gui tweaks: made note entry fields a bit wider, set a
187 minimum width for scales
188 * bug fix: avoid stale information in the instrument properties
189 window when a new file is loaded or the instrument is removed
190 * cross fade graph: draw curves of all layers in the same graph
191 * made sure the instruments menu is updated when instruments are
192 added, removed or renamed
193 * fixed name entry field in instrument properties window
194 * use character encoding Windows-1252 for all strings in gig files
195 * show dimension zone start and end as numeric text labels
196 * copying sample informations automatically may now be disabled from the
197 new "Edit" main menu
198 * import 'fine tune' when importing samples with libsndfile
199 * Mac OS X: initialize gtk and gettext with files from base
200 directory of the libgigedit library
201 * Mac OS X: fixed "recently used" in file dialogs
202 * Mac OS X: avoid crash when starting gigedit as an application
203 bundle
204 * Mac OS X: try to launch the GUI on the process's "main" thread
205 * show build date and libgig version number in about dialog
206 * added dialog for editing the CtrlTrigger and Legato midi rules
207 * if there is no region yet, show a red hint text to the user that he may
208 right click on the region chooser area to add a region
209 * added tooltips to main menu entries (was buggy before)
210 * added tooltips to instruments tree view and samples tree view
211 * added various tooltips and adjusted some labels on the region settings
212 pane
213 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: only a small set of possible MIDI controllers
214 was selectable for EG1 controller, EG2 controller and attenuation
215 controller (and no CC number was shown in the combo box). Obviously the
216 additional MIDI controllers can only be used with LinuxSampler, they would
217 not work with Gigasampler/GigaStudio. A warning message will be shown
218 though whenever somebody tries to use one of those extension controllers.
219 * Combine instruments: a new feature that allows to merge a selection of
220 instruments to one new single instrument. It uses the 'layer' dimension
221 to stack up the instruments. This feature is available from the main menu
222 under 'Tools' -> 'Combine Instruments'.
223 * Dimension zone amount: Support for increasing and decreasing the amount of
224 dimension zones by right clicking on the respective zone and either
225 selecting "delete" or "split" in the popup menu.
226 * Combine instruments: generalized this tool to allow combining instruments
227 based on any dimension, not only the 'layer' dimension.
228 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: show dialog window with at least 460x300px on
229 initial usage (was far too small by default).
230 * File Property Dialog: allow viewing and altering the Giga file format
231 version (by combo box).
232 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: added support for viewing and editing
233 dimensions of all regions simultaniously.
234 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing and editing
235 real-time instrument scripts. Instrument scripts are a LinuxSampler
236 extension of the original Giga format and will not load with the
237 GigaStudio software.
238 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing script slots for
239 instruments. Script slots define which scripts shall be executed for an
240 instrument by the sampler and in which order.
241 * Samples tree view on main window: display the amount of references for
242 each sample and show the respective sample in gray color in case it is not
243 referenced at all.
244 * Samples tree view: implemented sample reference browser, which shows a
245 tree with all instruments and their respective regions which reference the
246 selected sample once ore more.
247 * Restructured main menu: duplicated all popup menus to the main menu,
248 automatically switch to the right tree view tab when either selecting the
249 "Sample", "Instrument" or "Script" main menu entry.
250 * Dimension Region Selector: implemented multi zone selection by press and
251 hold CTRL key.
252 * Dimension Region Selector: show bottom and upper limit values for all
253 dimension zones, not just the currently selected ones.
254 * Dimension Region Selector: Fixed drawing issues when zone sizes were
255 altered by mouse drag and labels being displayed at wrong positions.
256 * Region Chooser: Double click opens dimension manager dialog.
257 * Dimension Manager: Clicking on dimension type cell of an existing dimension
258 opens a popup to alter the dimension type.
259 * Script Tree: Double click opens script editor.
260 * Fixed potential crash if exception was thrown while opening a gig file.
261 * Added support for visual progress bar while saving a gig file.
262 * Automatically switch the sampler's (audible) instrument whenever another
263 instrument was selected in gigedit (this default behavior can be switched
264 off in the settings menu of gigedit).
265 * Dimension Region Editor: Show coarse sample format info (audio channels,
266 bit depth, sample rate) and unique sample ID (since the gig format allows
267 different samples to have the same name).
268 * Dimension Region Editor: Added button "Select Sample" on the sample tab,
269 which allows to conveniently select the dimension region's sample on the
270 left hand side's samples tree view.
271 * Sample Referenve View Dialog: Clicking on a reference in the list closes
272 the dialog and jumps directly to the respective instrument, region and
273 dimension region the respective sample reference is located at.
274 * Fixed instruments, samples and scripts to appear twice after save.
275 * Implemented reordering of instruments by drag & drop.
276 * Implemented replacing of existing samples.
277 * Added "X" button next to sample reference field, which allows to remove
278 the current sample reference, allowing to create a "silent case" where
279 no sample shall be played.
280 * Fixed file name disappearing from title bar on certain actions.
281 * Added new menu item "View"->"Refresh All".
282 * Added new menu item "Samples"->"Remove Unused Samples".
283 * Region Chooser: when moving a region around automatically move the
284 keyboard position dependent pitch accordingly (can be turned off with
285 "Settings"->"Move root key with region moved").
286 * Added option to main menu for performing "Save" operation with a
287 tempoary file (may perform faster than directly modifying existing
288 .gig file).
289

309 the virtual MIDI keyboard
310 * renamed misleading names regarding the gig format's "keyswitching"
311 feature (the dimension is now displayed as "keyswitching" instead of
312 "keyboard" in the dimregchooser widget and the two parameters for
313 defining the actual keyswitching area on the keyboard in the instruments
314 properties dialog are now called "Keyswitching range low/high" instead of
