# Line 1  Line 1 
1  Version CVS HEAD (?)  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      * Refactored PropDialog -> FilePropDialog.
28      * Implemented sample property dialog.
29      * Gain: Allow also any positive dB gain value (instead of only +6 dB) up to
30        +96 dB and dropped the old "Gain +6dB" checkbox for that reason.
31      * Instrument Properties Dialog: Allow -96 dB .. +96 dB and dropped "Gain +6dB"
32        checkbox there as well.
33      * Instrument Properties Dialog: Show unit for attenuation and pitchbend range.
34      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Support for additional filter types:
35        lowpass 1/2/4/6-pole, highpass 1/2/4/6-pole, bandpass 2-pole,
36        bandreject 2-pole.
37      * Combine Tool: Fixed user's selection set reduction not being reflected
38        correctly as it supposed to.
39      * Fix: dimregion edit actions were ignored if user did not click (ever) on
40        any dimension zone yet.
41      * Added boolean setting to main menu -> "View" -> "Instrument Properties by
42        Double Click", which allows to prevent double clicking an instrument on the
43        instruments list view from opening its properties dialog.
44      * Added "Move Instrument To ..." menu action (available as Ctrl + i shortcut)
45        which shows a small dialog for entering the instrument's new index.
46      * Added widget class 'MultiLineLabel' to fix size issues with stock Gtk::Label
47        on large text blocks.
48      * Script Editor: highlight new NKSP 'patch' keyword in pink color.
49      * NKSP: Added support for managing script 'patch' variables for each
50        instrument; added a dedicated "Script" tab on right-hand side of Gigedit's
51        main window with a list view to manage these variables.
52      * Use more appropriate stepping/paging increments/decrements for spinboxes'
53        plus/minus buttons (depending on the individual parameter spinbutton
54        actually controls).
55      * Script 'patch' variables editor: double click anywhere on a script's title
56        row (or hitting <enter> while that row is selected) opens script source code
57        editor for that double clicked script.
58    
59    Version 1.1.1 (2019-07-27)
60    
61      * Script Editor: Fixed some minor issues with vertical line number bar
62        (which was editable, selectable and incorrectly displayed on new scripts).
63      * Translation Fix: MacroEditor.cpp and MacrosSetup.cpp were not under
64        translation control.
65      * Spelling fixes (patch provided by Debian maintainer Jaromír Mikeš).
66      * Added new main menu item "View" -> "Tooltips for Beginners" which allows
67        to disable tooltips intended for newbies only (default: on).
68      * Extended support for keyboard function keys up to F19.
69      * List assigned scripts as colored tooltip when hovering mouse over the
70        "Scripts" column in the instruments list.
71      * Added global keyboard accelerator Shift + Backspace for dropping all script
72        slots from an instrument.
73      * Added option to save as gig v4 file (File -> Properties).
74      * Fixed duplicate items in File -> Properties -> "File Format" combo box.
75      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added combo box "Sustain Release Trigger" which
76        can be used to optionally play release trigger samples on sustain pedal up.
77      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added check box "No note-off release trigger"
78        which allows to disable release trigger samples on regular MIDI note-off.
79      * Fixed compiler errors with Gtk 3.24.x (patch by Miroslav Šulc).
80      * Fixed some compiler warnings
81      * Avoid non-standard offsetof usage (to get rid of gcc warnings)
82      * Use GDK Seat API if available to grab pointer
83      * Improve version checks for pangomm
84      * Fix the instrument list tooltip handling so it doesn't generate
85        GTK assertion error messages
86      * Use English quotation marks in tooltips instead of German
87      * Use multiple columns in controller value popups, as tall popup
88        menus work really badly in some GTK environments
89      * Avoid deprecated sigc++ usage
90      * Fix build on old linux environments
91      * Enable "silent rules" in build
92      * Fix memory read access bug
93      * Refactor code: add common base class for Loader and Saver
94      * Fix resource leak: join loader and saver threads after use
95      * Use std::thread when building with newer glibmm, as Glib::Thread is
96        deprecated
97      * Fix bug that left the main window in a greyed out state after
98        opening a small gig file
99      * Set gtk settings a bit later to prevent warnings
100      * Use standard name for gdk pixbuf module file on Mac
101      * Look for locale files under directory share on Mac

107      * fixed building without linuxsampler on Mac
108      * fixed some compiler and cppcheck warnings
109      * synthesis paremeter page tabs are now scrollable (fixes an issue with
110        GTK 3: default theme uses huge tabs which breaks the overall layout on
111        average window sizes)
112      * Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
113        auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
114      * NKSP Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP syntax
115        highlighting backend.
116      * Script Editor: Some color tweaks (using now same text colors as on
117        the NKSP refrence documentation website).
118      * Script Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP parser
119        backend for displaying parser errors and warnings directly within
120        the source code.
121      * User settings are now automatically saved and restored.
122      * Automatically save & restore window size and position.
123      * Script Editor: Show precise parser error/warning messages as tooltip
124        when the mouse points over the respective location in the script's
125        source code.
126      * Script Editor: Show a question dialog to the user when the editor is
127        to be closed and the script changes have not been applied yet.
128      * Script Editor: Added status bar at the bottom of the script editor
129        window showing the amount (if any) of errors and warnings.
130      * Script Editor: Added menu bar and two initial entries: "Apply" (Ctrl-S)
131        and "Close" (Ctrl-Q).
132      * Script Editor: if editor is used in live-mode, inform the sampler that
133        it needs to automatically reload the script after the script has been
134        altered and applied with the script editor.
135      * Added setting to main menu "View" -> "Auto Restore Window Dimension"
136        (disabled by default since it causes issues on some machines).
137      * Fixed crash after changing a dimension type with the dimension manager
138        dialog.
139      * Script Editor: Fixed editor which did not appear on some systems due
140        to missing icons (using now lists of alternative icon names).
141      * Script Editor: Added "Font Size ..." selection to editor's menu.
142      * Script Editor: Fixed crash on Ctrl + A, followed by Del.
143      * fixed crash when opening dimension manager dialolg multiple times
144        (and i.e. adding or removing dimensions each time)
145      * Show sample group name and CRC-32 checksum on "Sample" tab.
146      * Show instrument index number on instruments list view.
147      * Added multi-row selection support on samples tree view.
148      * Added multi-row selection support on instruments list view.
149      * windows, 32-bit: fixed crashes by making sure the stack in sub
150        threads is 16-byte aligned
151      * windows: look for the data directory in the parent of the dll
152        directory, if the dll directory is called "32" or "64"
153      * Implemented resizing multiple dimension region zones at once, which is
154        controlled by the infamous checkbox trio "all regions",
155        "all dimension splits" and "both channels".
156      * Implemented deleting dimension region zones of all regions at once, which
157        is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
158      * Implemented splitting up dimension region zones of all regions at once,
159        which is controlled by checkbox "all regions".
160      * Show graphical symbol on region that uses loop(s).
161      * Show graphical symbol on region that misses sample reference(s).
162      * Fixed crash on saving file if a sample was requested to be replaced twice
163        by the user.
164      * Implemented fast navigation through regions by keyboard accelerator
165        Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right (on Mac: Cmd+Left and Cmd+Right).
166      * Implemented fast navigation through dimension region zones of currently
167        selected region by keyboard accelerator Alt+Left, Alt+Right, Alt+Up,
168        Alt+Down, as well as simply using the arrow keys alone if the dimension
169        region chooser got focus (i.e. when it was selected by mouse previously).
170      * Color tweaking on selected regions and selected dimension zones.
171      * Dimension Region Chooser: Show main selected case in opaque blue color
172        (like before), but all other selected dimension zones with a blue hatched
173        pattern instead.
174      * Dimension Region Chooser: Show the label of the currently selected
175        dimension in bold font.
176      * Implemented selecting multiple dimension region zones by keyboard with
177        keyboard accelerators Alt+Shift+Left and Alt+Shift+Right.
178      * Implemented copy & paste of DimensionRegion (with Alt+c and Alt+v).
179      * Dimension Region Chooser: Mark all zones auto selected by check box trio
180        with gray hatched pattern.
181      * Region Chooser: Mark all regions which are auto selected by check box
182        "All Regions" with gray hatched pattern.
183      * Introduced "Macro Editor" for adjusting clipboard content before applying
184        it (accessible via Alt+x).
185      * Introduced configurable list of macros which are auto assigned to keyboard
186        accelerators (F1 ... F12) and saved along with the app's config file.
187      * Macro Editor: Fixed deleting rows when delete button was hit without Ctrl
188        being pressed.
189      * Macro Editor: Show combo box with textual options for enum types.
190      * "Macro" main menu section: show macro comments as tooltip.
191      * Macro Editor: Display demangled C++ type names.
192      * Macros Setup: Implemented cloning of macros.
193      * Live mode performance optimization: fixed the editor to be non-responsive
194        for a very long time, which happened if changing instrument parameters of a
195        very large amount of dimension regions was requested.
196      * Macro Editor: Handle boolean parameter types appropriately, i.e. show
197        'Yes' or 'NO' instead of '1' or '0'.
198      * GTK3: Bringing back icons and keyboard accelerators / mnemonics for menus
199        and buttons with GTK3; Cudos to those GTK heros who thought it might be
200        a clever idea to simply remove such features for all users, all devices
201        and all apps by default with GTK3!
202      * Autoconf: check for presence of at least gtk+-2.0-dev.
203      * Instruments list view: show amount of real-time instruments scripts used
204        by instrument.
205      * Script Editor: Fixed Gtk crash while entering a variety of ill formed code
206        like unterminated string literals.
207      * Assigned more useful default dimensions (and default position) for various
208        windows and dialogs (if auto-restore of user's own custom window
209        dimensions is disabled).
210      * Mac fix: Make sure app window appears in front of all other apps.
211      * Script Editor: only if compiled without liblinuxsampler; added support for
212        new NKSP language keyword "synchronized".
213      * Script Editor: strike through code blocks filtered out by the preprocessor.
214      * Combine Tool: Show instruments' index number in the list view.
215      * Combine Tool: Now it allows to select the instruments to be combined
216        already in the main window's instruments list view; then either call the
217        combine instrument dialog from the main menu or use the new keyboard
218        shortcut Ctrl + j.
219      * Combine Tool: Added a vertical list which represents the order of the
220        selected instruments to be combined; dragging them modifies their order.
221      * Combine Tool: After returning from the combine tool dialog, automatically
222        scroll to the newly added (combined) instrument.
223      * Draw icons on individual dimension region zones, similar to the icons
224        already been drawn on regions.
225      * Fixed loop and sample reference icons being displayed incorrectly sometimes,
226        because unused dimension regions were not ignored.
227      * Script Editor: Show line numbers.
228      * Script Editor: Right aligned line numbers.
229      * Script Editor: Fixed font readability issue on Mac.
230      * Added EG state machine options for EG1 and EG2, which may be used to
231        configure whether the individual EG stages may be cancelled.
232      * Fix: after the combine instruments dialog, the new instrument was not
233        correctly displayed by the GUI as being selected.
234      * Fix: automatically reload instrument after script slots have been modified.
235      * Combine Tool: OK button has focus now by default to quickly combine
236        instruments by pressing Return key.
237      * Added keyboard accelerators Shift+F1 to Shift+F12 for quick assigning
238        a script to the currently selected instrument, and an appropriate
239        additional menu "Instruments" -> "Assign Script".
240      * Added keyboard accelerators Ctrl + Arrow Down and Ctrl + Arrow Up for
241        switching between instruments.
242      * Added search filter field which allows to quickly filter the instrument
243        list by case insensitive search tokens.
244      * Fix: navigating between dimension zones by keyboard did sometimes not
245        work after switching from an instrument with different dimension types.
246      * Fix: Sample references view dialog had some odd behaviors, like it did not
247        respond to mouse scroll events for instance.
248      * Debian: Raised Debian compatibility level to Debian 9 "Stretch".
249      * Raised max. pitchbend range to 48 semi tones.
250      * Added experimental support for upcoming GTK(MM)4
251        (for now up to GTKMM 3.91.2 while still preserving backward compatibility
252        down to GTKMM 2).
253      * Re-merged r2845 to compile now with and without Gtk "Stock ID" API
254        (see also r3158).
255      * Visual cosmetics on Gtk 3.
256      * Script Editor: Use consistent font size on all screens and DPI settings.
257    
258    Version 1.0.0 (2015-07-17)
259    
260      * minor fix in configure for cross-compiling
261      * minor Makefile fix for parallel make
262      * use Cairo instead of deprecated gdk drawing primitives
263      * avoid deprecated gtk methods when using newer gtk versions
264      * raised minimum supported gtkmm version to 2.8
265      * ported to gtkmm 3, keeping compatibility with gtkmm 2
266      * gtkmm 3 fix: rewrote the custom widgets (regionchooser and
267        dimregionchooser) so they only draw pixels in the on_draw
268        method. This should make them work again in newer gtkmm 3
269        environments.
270      * added support for new glibmm threads API
271      * gtkmm 3 fix: the WrapLabel custom widget is not needed in gtkmm 3
272      * fixed building on Debian testing (#186)
273      * modernized configure script
274      * added graphical curves for velocity response and crossfade
275      * added "Duplicate Instrument" function
276      * fixed import of 32 bit float wav files
277      * code refactoring: created a PropEdit class for property editor
278        windows, moved Table class from mainwindow to paramedit
279      * minor gui tweaks: made note entry fields a bit wider, set a
280        minimum width for scales
281      * bug fix: avoid stale information in the instrument properties
282        window when a new file is loaded or the instrument is removed
283      * cross fade graph: draw curves of all layers in the same graph
284      * made sure the instruments menu is updated when instruments are
285        added, removed or renamed
286      * fixed name entry field in instrument properties window
287      * use character encoding Windows-1252 for all strings in gig files
288      * show dimension zone start and end as numeric text labels
289      * copying sample informations automatically may now be disabled from the
290        new "Edit" main menu
291      * import 'fine tune' when importing samples with libsndfile
292      * Mac OS X: initialize gtk and gettext with files from base
293        directory of the libgigedit library
294      * Mac OS X: fixed "recently used" in file dialogs
295      * Mac OS X: avoid crash when starting gigedit as an application
296        bundle
297      * Mac OS X: try to launch the GUI on the process's "main" thread
298      * show build date and libgig version number in about dialog
299      * added dialog for editing the CtrlTrigger and Legato midi rules
300      * if there is no region yet, show a red hint text to the user that he may
301        right click on the region chooser area to add a region
302      * added tooltips to main menu entries (was buggy before)
303      * added tooltips to instruments tree view and samples tree view
304      * added various tooltips and adjusted some labels on the region settings
305        pane
306      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: only a small set of possible MIDI controllers
307        was selectable for EG1 controller, EG2 controller and attenuation
308        controller (and no CC number was shown in the combo box). Obviously the
309        additional MIDI controllers can only be used with LinuxSampler, they would
310        not work with Gigasampler/GigaStudio. A warning message will be shown
311        though whenever somebody tries to use one of those extension controllers.
312      * Combine instruments: a new feature that allows to merge a selection of
313        instruments to one new single instrument. It uses the 'layer' dimension
314        to stack up the instruments. This feature is available from the main menu
315        under 'Tools' -> 'Combine Instruments'.
316      * Dimension zone amount: Support for increasing and decreasing the amount of
317        dimension zones by right clicking on the respective zone and either
318        selecting "delete" or "split" in the popup menu.
319      * Combine instruments: generalized this tool to allow combining instruments
320        based on any dimension, not only the 'layer' dimension.
321      * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: show dialog window with at least 460x300px on
322        initial usage (was far too small by default).
323      * File Property Dialog: allow viewing and altering the Giga file format
324        version (by combo box).
325      * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: added support for viewing and editing
326        dimensions of all regions simultaniously.
327      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing and editing
328        real-time instrument scripts. Instrument scripts are a LinuxSampler
329        extension of the original Giga format and will not load with the
330        GigaStudio software.
331      * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing script slots for
332        instruments. Script slots define which scripts shall be executed for an
333        instrument by the sampler and in which order.
334      * Samples tree view on main window: display the amount of references for
335        each sample and show the respective sample in gray color in case it is not
336        referenced at all.
337      * Samples tree view: implemented sample reference browser, which shows a
338        tree with all instruments and their respective regions which reference the
339        selected sample once ore more.
340      * Restructured main menu: duplicated all popup menus to the main menu,
341        automatically switch to the right tree view tab when either selecting the
342        "Sample", "Instrument" or "Script" main menu entry.
343      * Dimension Region Selector: implemented multi zone selection by press and
344        hold CTRL key.
345      * Dimension Region Selector: show bottom and upper limit values for all
346        dimension zones, not just the currently selected ones.
347      * Dimension Region Selector: Fixed drawing issues when zone sizes were
348        altered by mouse drag and labels being displayed at wrong positions.
349      * Region Chooser: Double click opens dimension manager dialog.
350      * Dimension Manager: Clicking on dimension type cell of an existing dimension
351        opens a popup to alter the dimension type.
352      * Script Tree: Double click opens script editor.
353      * Fixed potential crash if exception was thrown while opening a gig file.
354      * Added support for visual progress bar while saving a gig file.
355      * Automatically switch the sampler's (audible) instrument whenever another
356        instrument was selected in gigedit (this default behavior can be switched
357        off in the settings menu of gigedit).
358      * Dimension Region Editor: Show coarse sample format info (audio channels,
359        bit depth, sample rate) and unique sample ID (since the gig format allows
360        different samples to have the same name).
361      * Dimension Region Editor: Added button "Select Sample" on the sample tab,
362        which allows to conveniently select the dimension region's sample on the
363        left hand side's samples tree view.
364      * Sample Referenve View Dialog: Clicking on a reference in the list closes
365        the dialog and jumps directly to the respective instrument, region and
366        dimension region the respective sample reference is located at.
367      * Fixed instruments, samples and scripts to appear twice after save.
368      * Implemented reordering of instruments by drag & drop.
369      * Implemented replacing of existing samples.
370      * Added "X" button next to sample reference field, which allows to remove
371        the current sample reference, allowing to create a "silent case" where
372        no sample shall be played.
373      * Fixed file name disappearing from title bar on certain actions.
374      * Added new menu item "View"->"Refresh All".
375      * Added new menu item "Samples"->"Remove Unused Samples".
376      * Region Chooser: when moving a region around automatically move the
377        keyboard position dependent pitch accordingly (can be turned off with
378        "Settings"->"Move root key with region moved").
379      * Added option to main menu for performing "Save" operation with a
380        tempoary file (may perform faster than directly modifying existing
381        .gig file).
382
