* Instrument Property dialog is now tabbed, showing (already existing)
  instrument settings on tab 1, and showing now DLS meta info on 2nd tab.
* Bumped version (1.1.1.svn5).

1 Version SVN trunk (?)
2
3 * Script Editor: Added syntax highlighting support for standard measurement
4 units (and their potential metric prefix).
5 * Require C++11 compliant compiler.
6 * Draw LFO curves according to settings for each one of the 3 LFOs.
7 * Added 2 new tabs (a 3rd tab for "Amp" and a 3rd tab for "Filter").
8 * Shortened "Amplitude" -> "Amp" on tabs (to save space).
9 * Increased default window width 865px -> 960px.
10 * Script Editor: Show warning message in status line if Gigedit was compiled
11 without liblinuxsampler support (to make user aware about limited features).
12 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added combo box for selecting a wave form type
13 for each one of the 3 LFOs (i.e. for overriding the default LFO sine wave
14 form to either triangle, saw or square instead).
15 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added slider for each one of the 3 LFOs for
16 altering the phase displacement of the respective LFO (that is for moving
17 the LFO's start level horizontally on the time axis).
18 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added checkbox "Flip Phase" to LFO 3
19 (the original Gigasampler/GigaStudio software only supported that option
20 for LFO 1 and LFO 2).
21 * Increased crossfade curve preview dimensions
22 (280px X 80px -> 500px X 100px).
23 * Fixed LFO curve previews not being redrawn on UI control changes with
24 certain window managers and/or Gtk versions (patch by Ivan Maguidhir).
25 * Instrument Property dialog is now tabbed, showing (already existing)
26 instrument settings on tab 1, and showing now DLS meta info on 2nd tab.
27
28 Version 1.1.1 (2019-07-27)
29
30 * Script Editor: Fixed some minor issues with vertical line number bar
31 (which was editable, selectable and incorrectly displayed on new scripts).
32 * Translation Fix: MacroEditor.cpp and MacrosSetup.cpp were not under
33 translation control.
34 * Spelling fixes (patch provided by Debian maintainer Jarom��r Mike��).
35 * Added new main menu item "View" -> "Tooltips for Beginners" which allows
36 to disable tooltips intended for newbies only (default: on).
37 * Extended support for keyboard function keys up to F19.
38 * List assigned scripts as colored tooltip when hovering mouse over the
39 "Scripts" column in the instruments list.
40 * Added global keyboard accelerator Shift + Backspace for dropping all script
41 slots from an instrument.
42 * Added option to save as gig v4 file (File -> Properties).
43 * Fixed duplicate items in File -> Properties -> "File Format" combo box.
44 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added combo box "Sustain Release Trigger" which
45 can be used to optionally play release trigger samples on sustain pedal up.
46 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added check box "No note-off release trigger"
47 which allows to disable release trigger samples on regular MIDI note-off.
48 * Fixed compiler errors with Gtk 3.24.x (patch by Miroslav ��ulc).
49 * Fixed some compiler warnings
50 * Avoid non-standard offsetof usage (to get rid of gcc warnings)
51 * Use GDK Seat API if available to grab pointer
52 * Improve version checks for pangomm
53 * Fix the instrument list tooltip handling so it doesn't generate
54 GTK assertion error messages
55 * Use English quotation marks in tooltips instead of German
56 * Use multiple columns in controller value popups, as tall popup
57 menus work really badly in some GTK environments
58 * Avoid deprecated sigc++ usage
59 * Fix build on old linux environments
60 * Enable "silent rules" in build
61 * Fix memory read access bug
62 * Refactor code: add common base class for Loader and Saver
63 * Fix resource leak: join loader and saver threads after use
64 * Use std::thread when building with newer glibmm, as Glib::Thread is
65 deprecated
66 * Fix bug that left the main window in a greyed out state after
67 opening a small gig file
68 * Set gtk settings a bit later to prevent warnings
69 * Use standard name for gdk pixbuf module file on Mac

74
75 * allow building with G/GDK/GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
76 * fixed building without linuxsampler on Mac
77 * fixed some compiler and cppcheck warnings
78 * synthesis paremeter page tabs are now scrollable (fixes an issue with
79 GTK 3: default theme uses huge tabs which breaks the overall layout on
80 average window sizes)
81 * Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
82 auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
83 * NKSP Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP syntax
84 highlighting backend.
85 * Script Editor: Some color tweaks (using now same text colors as on
86 the NKSP refrence documentation website).
87 * Script Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP parser
88 backend for displaying parser errors and warnings directly within
89 the source code.
90 * User settings are now automatically saved and restored.
91 * Automatically save & restore window size and position.
92 * Script Editor: Show precise parser error/warning messages as tooltip
93 when the mouse points over the respective location in the script's
94 source code.

96 to be closed and the script changes have not been applied yet.
97 * Script Editor: Added status bar at the bottom of the script editor
98 window showing the amount (if any) of errors and warnings.
99 * Script Editor: Added menu bar and two initial entries: "Apply" (Ctrl-S)
100 and "Close" (Ctrl-Q).
101 * Script Editor: if editor is used in live-mode, inform the sampler that
102 it needs to automatically reload the script after the script has been
103 altered and applied with the script editor.
104 * Added setting to main menu "View" -> "Auto Restore Window Dimension"
105 (disabled by default since it causes issues on some machines).
106 * Fixed crash after changing a dimension type with the dimension manager
107 dialog.
108 * Script Editor: Fixed editor which did not appear on some systems due
109 to missing icons (using now lists of alternative icon names).
110 * Script Editor: Added "Font Size ..." selection to editor's menu.
111 * Script Editor: Fixed crash on Ctrl + A, followed by Del.
112 * fixed crash when opening dimension manager dialolg multiple times
113 (and i.e. adding or removing dimensions each time)

115 * Show instrument index number on instruments list view.
116 * Added multi-row selection support on samples tree view.
117 * Added multi-row selection support on instruments list view.
118 * windows, 32-bit: fixed crashes by making sure the stack in sub
119 threads is 16-byte aligned
120 * windows: look for the data directory in the parent of the dll
121 directory, if the dll directory is called "32" or "64"
122 * Implemented resizing multiple dimension region zones at once, which is
123 controlled by the infamous checkbox trio "all regions",
124 "all dimension splits" and "both channels".
125 * Implemented deleting dimension region zones of all regions at once, which
126 is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
127 * Implemented splitting up dimension region zones of all regions at once,
128 which is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
129 * Show graphical symbol on region that uses loop(s).
130 * Show graphical symbol on region that misses sample reference(s).
131 * Fixed crash on saving file if a sample was requested to be replaced twice
132 by the user.
133 * Implemented fast navigation through regions by keyboard accelerator
134 Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right (on Mac: Cmd+Left and Cmd+Right).
135 * Implemented fast navigation through dimension region zones of currently
136 selected region by keyboard accelerator Alt+Left, Alt+Right, Alt+Up,
137 Alt+Down, as well as simply using the arrow keys alone if the dimension
138 region chooser got focus (i.e. when it was selected by mouse previously).
139 * Color tweaking on selected regions and selected dimension zones.
140 * Dimension Region Chooser: Show main selected case in opaque blue color
141 (like before), but all other selected dimension zones with a blue hatched
142 pattern instead.
143 * Dimension Region Chooser: Show the label of the currently selected
144 dimension in bold font.

148 * Dimension Region Chooser: Mark all zones auto selected by check box trio
149 with gray hatched pattern.
150 * Region Chooser: Mark all regions which are auto selected by check box
151 "All Regions" with gray hatched pattern.
152 * Introduced "Macro Editor" for adjusting clipboard content before applying
153 it (accessible via Alt+x).
154 * Introduced configurable list of macros which are auto assigned to keyboard
155 accelerators (F1 ... F12) and saved along with the app's config file.
156 * Macro Editor: Fixed deleting rows when delete button was hit without Ctrl
157 being pressed.
158 * Macro Editor: Show combo box with textual options for enum types.
159 * "Macro" main menu section: show macro comments as tooltip.
160 * Macro Editor: Display demangled C++ type names.
161 * Macros Setup: Implemented cloning of macros.
162 * Live mode performance optimization: fixed the editor to be non-responsive
163 for a very long time, which happened if changing instrument parameters of a
164 very large amount of dimension regions was requested.
165 * Macro Editor: Handle boolean parameter types appropriately, i.e. show
166 'Yes' or 'NO' instead of '1' or '0'.
167 * GTK3: Bringing back icons and keyboard accelerators / mnemonics for menus
168 and buttons with GTK3; Cudos to those GTK heros who thought it might be
169 a clever idea to simply remove such features for all users, all devices
170 and all apps by default with GTK3!
171 * Autoconf: check for presence of at least gtk+-2.0-dev.
172 * Instruments list view: show amount of real-time instruments scripts used
173 by instrument.
174 * Script Editor: Fixed Gtk crash while entering a variety of ill formed code
175 like unterminated string literals.
176 * Assigned more useful default dimensions (and default position) for various
177 windows and dialogs (if auto-restore of user's own custom window
178 dimensions is disabled).
179 * Mac fix: Make sure app window appears in front of all other apps.
180 * Script Editor: only if compiled without liblinuxsampler; added support for
181 new NKSP language keyword "synchronized".
182 * Script Editor: strike through code blocks filtered out by the preprocessor.
183 * Combine Tool: Show instruments' index number in the list view.
184 * Combine Tool: Now it allows to select the instruments to be combined
185 already in the main window's instruments list view; then either call the
186 combine instrument dialog from the main menu or use the new keyboard
187 shortcut Ctrl + j.
188 * Combine Tool: Added a vertical list which represents the order of the
189 selected instruments to be combined; dragging them modifies their order.
190 * Combine Tool: After returning from the combine tool dialog, automatically
191 scroll to the newly added (combined) instrument.
192 * Draw icons on individual dimension region zones, similar to the icons
193 already been drawn on regions.
194 * Fixed loop and sample reference icons being displayed incorrectly sometimes,
195 because unused dimension regions were not ignored.
196 * Script Editor: Show line numbers.
197 * Script Editor: Right aligned line numbers.
198 * Script Editor: Fixed font readability issue on Mac.
199 * Added EG state machine options for EG1 and EG2, which may be used to
200 configure whether the individual EG stages may be cancelled.
201 * Fix: after the combine instruments dialog, the new instrument was not
202 correctly displayed by the GUI as being selected.
203 * Fix: automatically reload instrument after script slots have been modified.
204 * Combine Tool: OK button has focus now by default to quickly combine
205 instruments by pressing Return key.
206 * Added keyboard accelerators Shift+F1 to Shift+F12 for quick assigning
207 a script to the currently selected instrument, and an appropriate
208 additional menu "Instruments" -> "Assign Script".
209 * Added keyboard accelerators Ctrl + Arrow Down and Ctrl + Arrow Up for
210 switching between instruments.
211 * Added search filter field which allows to quickly filter the instrument
212 list by case insensitive search tokens.
213 * Fix: navigating between dimension zones by keyboard did sometimes not
214 work after switching from an instrument with different dimension types.
215 * Fix: Sample references view dialog had some odd behaviors, like it did not
216 respond to mouse scroll events for instance.
217 * Debian: Raised Debian compatibility level to Debian 9 "Stretch".
218 * Raised max. pitchbend range to 48 semi tones.
219 * Added experimental support for upcoming GTK(MM)4
220 (for now up to GTKMM 3.91.2 while still preserving backward compatibility
221 down to GTKMM 2).
222 * Re-merged r2845 to compile now with and without Gtk "Stock ID" API
223 (see also r3158).
224 * Visual cosmetics on Gtk 3.
225 * Script Editor: Use consistent font size on all screens and DPI settings.
226
227 Version 1.0.0 (2015-07-17)
228
229 * minor fix in configure for cross-compiling
230 * minor Makefile fix for parallel make
231 * use Cairo instead of deprecated gdk drawing primitives

233 * raised minimum supported gtkmm version to 2.8
234 * ported to gtkmm 3, keeping compatibility with gtkmm 2
235 * gtkmm 3 fix: rewrote the custom widgets (regionchooser and
236 dimregionchooser) so they only draw pixels in the on_draw
237 method. This should make them work again in newer gtkmm 3
238 environments.
239 * added support for new glibmm threads API
240 * gtkmm 3 fix: the WrapLabel custom widget is not needed in gtkmm 3
241 * fixed building on Debian testing (#186)
242 * modernized configure script
243 * added graphical curves for velocity response and crossfade
244 * added "Duplicate Instrument" function

246 * code refactoring: created a PropEdit class for property editor
247 windows, moved Table class from mainwindow to paramedit
248 * minor gui tweaks: made note entry fields a bit wider, set a
249 minimum width for scales
250 * bug fix: avoid stale information in the instrument properties
251 window when a new file is loaded or the instrument is removed
252 * cross fade graph: draw curves of all layers in the same graph
253 * made sure the instruments menu is updated when instruments are
254 added, removed or renamed
255 * fixed name entry field in instrument properties window
256 * use character encoding Windows-1252 for all strings in gig files
257 * show dimension zone start and end as numeric text labels
258 * copying sample informations automatically may now be disabled from the
259 new "Edit" main menu
260 * import 'fine tune' when importing samples with libsndfile
261 * Mac OS X: initialize gtk and gettext with files from base
262 directory of the libgigedit library
263 * Mac OS X: fixed "recently used" in file dialogs
264 * Mac OS X: avoid crash when starting gigedit as an application
265 bundle
266 * Mac OS X: try to launch the GUI on the process's "main" thread
267 * show build date and libgig version number in about dialog
268 * added dialog for editing the CtrlTrigger and Legato midi rules
269 * if there is no region yet, show a red hint text to the user that he may
270 right click on the region chooser area to add a region
271 * added tooltips to main menu entries (was buggy before)
272 * added tooltips to instruments tree view and samples tree view
273 * added various tooltips and adjusted some labels on the region settings
274 pane
275 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: only a small set of possible MIDI controllers
276 was selectable for EG1 controller, EG2 controller and attenuation
277 controller (and no CC number was shown in the combo box). Obviously the
278 additional MIDI controllers can only be used with LinuxSampler, they would
279 not work with Gigasampler/GigaStudio. A warning message will be shown
280 though whenever somebody tries to use one of those extension controllers.
281 * Combine instruments: a new feature that allows to merge a selection of
282 instruments to one new single instrument. It uses the 'layer' dimension
283 to stack up the instruments. This feature is available from the main menu
284 under 'Tools' -> 'Combine Instruments'.
285 * Dimension zone amount: Support for increasing and decreasing the amount of
286 dimension zones by right clicking on the respective zone and either
287 selecting "delete" or "split" in the popup menu.
288 * Combine instruments: generalized this tool to allow combining instruments
289 based on any dimension, not only the 'layer' dimension.
290 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: show dialog window with at least 460x300px on
291 initial usage (was far too small by default).
292 * File Property Dialog: allow viewing and altering the Giga file format
293 version (by combo box).
294 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: added support for viewing and editing
295 dimensions of all regions simultaniously.
296 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing and editing
297 real-time instrument scripts. Instrument scripts are a LinuxSampler
298 extension of the original Giga format and will not load with the
299 GigaStudio software.
300 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing script slots for
301 instruments. Script slots define which scripts shall be executed for an
302 instrument by the sampler and in which order.
303 * Samples tree view on main window: display the amount of references for
304 each sample and show the respective sample in gray color in case it is not
305 referenced at all.
306 * Samples tree view: implemented sample reference browser, which shows a
307 tree with all instruments and their respective regions which reference the
308 selected sample once ore more.
309 * Restructured main menu: duplicated all popup menus to the main menu,
310 automatically switch to the right tree view tab when either selecting the
311 "Sample", "Instrument" or "Script" main menu entry.
312 * Dimension Region Selector: implemented multi zone selection by press and
313 hold CTRL key.
314 * Dimension Region Selector: show bottom and upper limit values for all
315 dimension zones, not just the currently selected ones.
316 * Dimension Region Selector: Fixed drawing issues when zone sizes were
317 altered by mouse drag and labels being displayed at wrong positions.
318 * Region Chooser: Double click opens dimension manager dialog.
319 * Dimension Manager: Clicking on dimension type cell of an existing dimension
320 opens a popup to alter the dimension type.
321 * Script Tree: Double click opens script editor.
322 * Fixed potential crash if exception was thrown while opening a gig file.
323 * Added support for visual progress bar while saving a gig file.
324 * Automatically switch the sampler's (audible) instrument whenever another
325 instrument was selected in gigedit (this default behavior can be switched
326 off in the settings menu of gigedit).
327 * Dimension Region Editor: Show coarse sample format info (audio channels,
328 bit depth, sample rate) and unique sample ID (since the gig format allows
329 different samples to have the same name).
330 * Dimension Region Editor: Added button "Select Sample" on the sample tab,
331 which allows to conveniently select the dimension region's sample on the
332 left hand side's samples tree view.
333 * Sample Referenve View Dialog: Clicking on a reference in the list closes
334 the dialog and jumps directly to the respective instrument, region and
335 dimension region the respective sample reference is located at.
336 * Fixed instruments, samples and scripts to appear twice after save.
337 * Implemented reordering of instruments by drag & drop.
338 * Implemented replacing of existing samples.
339 * Added "X" button next to sample reference field, which allows to remove
340 the current sample reference, allowing to create a "silent case" where
341 no sample shall be played.
342 * Fixed file name disappearing from title bar on certain actions.
343 * Added new menu item "View"->"Refresh All".
344 * Added new menu item "Samples"->"Remove Unused Samples".
345 * Region Chooser: when moving a region around automatically move the
346 keyboard position dependent pitch accordingly (can be turned off with
347 "Settings"->"Move root key with region moved").
348 * Added option to main menu for performing "Save" operation with a
349 tempoary file (may perform faster than directly modifying existing
350 .gig file).
351
352 Version 0.2.0 (2009-07-31)
353
354 * fixed file properties dialog - properties now can be edited
355 * gig files where regions are not internally ordered are now handled
356 * the resize mouse pointer is not shown anymore for regions that
357 can't be resized
358 * the region and dimregion chooser widgets are now resizable
359 * bugfix: sometimes you could not delete more than one dimension
360 * filter headers are now also greyed out when the filter is inactive
361 * autoconf fix: LS plugin dirs with digits in their prefix
362 (e.g. "/usr/lib64/foo") are now resolved in relative dirs as well
363 (show a warning when resolving the relative path failed)
364 * keys on the virtual keyboard now highlight on note on events on
365 sampler side
366 * virtual keyboard can now trigger notes for the sampler (only in
367 live-mode of course)

369 (selectable by combobox below the keyboard)
370 * show absolute velocity value of note-on & note-off events below
371 the virtual MIDI keyboard
372 * renamed misleading names regarding the gig format's "keyswitching"
373 feature (the dimension is now displayed as "keyswitching" instead of
374 "keyboard" in the dimregchooser widget and the two parameters for
375 defining the actual keyswitching area on the keyboard in the instruments
376 properties dialog are now called "Keyswitching range low/high" instead of
377 "Dimension key range low/high")
378 * added "replace all samples" function to samples popup menu
379 (patch by Anders Dahnielson, a bit extended, fixes #73)
380 * bugfix: dimension manager window didn't update when another region
381 was selected (#78)
382 * in "Save As..." dialog set inital filename to "copy_of_<filename>" and
383 show a warning message that saving to the same .gig file will corrupt

388 * it is now possible to create dimensions where the amount of zones
389 isn't a power of two (patch by Devin Anderson, #89, slightly
390 modified)
391 * fixed configure check for libsndfile loop support
392 * bugfix: when a stereo sample is replaced, make sure both zones of
