7    
8    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
9    
10    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
11      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
12      wrong main widget hidden state.
13    
14    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
15    
16    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
17      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
18      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
19      targets (--enable-debug).
20    
21    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
22    
23    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
24      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
25      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
26    
27    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
28      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
29    
30    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
31      a menu separator has been added.
32    
33    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
34      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
35    
36    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
37      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
38      lame green solid background :).
39    
40    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
41      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
42    
43    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
44    
45    
46    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
47    
48    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
49      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
50      ever may follow ;)
51    
52    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
53    
54    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
55      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
56      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
57      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
58      a sampler the next time.
59    
60    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
61    
62    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
63    
64    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
65      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
66      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
67      (default none).
68    
69    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
70      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
71      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
72    
73    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
74      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
75      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
76      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
77    
78    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
79      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
80    
81    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
82      screwed.
83    
84    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
85      e.g. by other frontends.
86    
87    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
88      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
89      (fixes segfault on device changes)
90    
91    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
92      "View" main menu.
93    
94    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
95    
96    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
97    
98    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
99      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
100    
101    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
102      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
103    
104    
105    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
106    
107    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
108      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
109      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
110      default.
111    
112    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
113      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
114    
115    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
116      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
117    
118    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
119      creating a new sampler channel.
120    
121    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
122    
123    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
124      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
125      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
126      first time).
127    
128    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
129      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
130    
131    * Added Windows file path support.
132    
133    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
134      under win32.
135    
136    * Qt4 port of the application.
137    
138    
139    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
140    
141    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
142      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
143      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
144      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
145    
146    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
147      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
148      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
149      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
150    
151    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
152      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
153      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
154    
155    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.

159    
160    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
161      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
162      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
163    
164    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
165    
166    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
167      the session state, only at code-level.
168    
169    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
170      existing instrument file name.
