File size: 15594 byte(s)
* Added option to main menu for performing "Save" operation with a
  tempoary file (may perform faster than directly modifying existing
  .gig file).
* Bumped version (2.0.0.svn19).

1 Version SVN HEAD (?)
2
3 * allow building with G/GDK/GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
4 * fixed building without linuxsampler on Mac
5 * fixed some compiler and cppcheck warnings
6 * avoid using gtk stock items, as they are deprecated in gtk 3.10
7 * synthesis paremeter page tabs are now scrollable (fixes an issue with
8 GTK 3: default theme uses huge tabs which breaks the overall layout on
9 average window sizes)
10 * Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
11 auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
12 * NKSP Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP syntax
13 highlighting backend.
14 * Script Editor: Some color tweaks (using now same text colors as on
15 the NKSP refrence documentation website).
16 * Script Editor: Added support for liblinuxsampler's NKSP parser
17 backend for displaying parser errors and warnings directly within
18 the source code.
19 * User settings are now automatically saved and restored.
20 * Automatically save & restore window size and position.
21 * Script Editor: Show precise parser error/warning messages as tooltip
22 when the mouse points over the respective location in the script's
23 source code.
24 * Script Editor: Show a question dialog to the user when the editor is
25 to be closed and the script changes have not been applied yet.
26 * Script Editor: Added status bar at the bottom of the script editor
27 window showing the amount (if any) of errors and warnings.
28 * Script Editor: Added menu bar and two initial entries: "Apply" (Ctrl-S)
29 and "Close" (Ctrl-Q).
30 * Script Editor: if editor is used in live-mode, inform the sampler that
31 it needs to automatically reload the script after the script has been
32 altered and applied with the script editor.
33 * Added setting to main menu "View" -> "Auto Restore Window Dimension"
34 (disabled by default since it causes issues on some machines).
35 * Fixed crash after changing a dimension type with the dimension manager
36 dialog.
37 * Script Editor: Fixed editor which did not appear on some systems due
38 to missing icons (using now lists of alternative icon names).
39 * Script Editor: Added "Font Size ..." selection to editor's menu.
40
41 Version 1.0.0 (2015-07-17)
42
43 * minor fix in configure for cross-compiling
44 * minor Makefile fix for parallel make
45 * use Cairo instead of deprecated gdk drawing primitives
46 * avoid deprecated gtk methods when using newer gtk versions
47 * raised minimum supported gtkmm version to 2.8
48 * ported to gtkmm 3, keeping compatibility with gtkmm 2
49 * gtkmm 3 fix: rewrote the custom widgets (regionchooser and
50 dimregionchooser) so they only draw pixels in the on_draw
51 method. This should make them work again in newer gtkmm 3
52 environments.
53 * added support for new glibmm threads API
54 * gtkmm 3 fix: the WrapLabel custom widget is not needed in gtkmm 3
55 * fixed building on Debian testing (#186)
56 * modernized configure script
57 * added graphical curves for velocity response and crossfade
58 * added "Duplicate Instrument" function
59 * fixed import of 32 bit float wav files
60 * code refactoring: created a PropEdit class for property editor
61 windows, moved Table class from mainwindow to paramedit
62 * minor gui tweaks: made note entry fields a bit wider, set a
63 minimum width for scales
64 * bug fix: avoid stale information in the instrument properties
65 window when a new file is loaded or the instrument is removed
66 * cross fade graph: draw curves of all layers in the same graph
67 * made sure the instruments menu is updated when instruments are
68 added, removed or renamed
69 * fixed name entry field in instrument properties window
70 * use character encoding Windows-1252 for all strings in gig files
71 * show dimension zone start and end as numeric text labels
72 * copying sample informations automatically may now be disabled from the
73 new "Edit" main menu
74 * import 'fine tune' when importing samples with libsndfile
75 * Mac OS X: initialize gtk and gettext with files from base
76 directory of the libgigedit library
77 * Mac OS X: fixed "recently used" in file dialogs
78 * Mac OS X: avoid crash when starting gigedit as an application
79 bundle
80 * Mac OS X: try to launch the GUI on the process's "main" thread
81 * show build date and libgig version number in about dialog
82 * added dialog for editing the CtrlTrigger and Legato midi rules
83 * if there is no region yet, show a red hint text to the user that he may
84 right click on the region chooser area to add a region
85 * added tooltips to main menu entries (was buggy before)
86 * added tooltips to instruments tree view and samples tree view
87 * added various tooltips and adjusted some labels on the region settings
88 pane
89 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: only a small set of possible MIDI controllers
90 was selectable for EG1 controller, EG2 controller and attenuation
91 controller (and no CC number was shown in the combo box). Obviously the
92 additional MIDI controllers can only be used with LinuxSampler, they would
93 not work with Gigasampler/GigaStudio. A warning message will be shown
94 though whenever somebody tries to use one of those extension controllers.
95 * Combine instruments: a new feature that allows to merge a selection of
96 instruments to one new single instrument. It uses the 'layer' dimension
97 to stack up the instruments. This feature is available from the main menu
98 under 'Tools' -> 'Combine Instruments'.
99 * Dimension zone amount: Support for increasing and decreasing the amount of
100 dimension zones by right clicking on the respective zone and either
101 selecting "delete" or "split" in the popup menu.
102 * Combine instruments: generalized this tool to allow combining instruments
103 based on any dimension, not only the 'layer' dimension.
104 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: show dialog window with at least 460x300px on
105 initial usage (was far too small by default).
106 * File Property Dialog: allow viewing and altering the Giga file format
107 version (by combo box).
108 * 'Dimension Manager' dialog: added support for viewing and editing
109 dimensions of all regions simultaniously.
110 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing and editing
111 real-time instrument scripts. Instrument scripts are a LinuxSampler
112 extension of the original Giga format and will not load with the
113 GigaStudio software.
114 * GIG SOUND FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for managing script slots for
115 instruments. Script slots define which scripts shall be executed for an
116 instrument by the sampler and in which order.
117 * Samples tree view on main window: display the amount of references for
118 each sample and show the respective sample in gray color in case it is not
119 referenced at all.
120 * Samples tree view: implemented sample reference browser, which shows a
121 tree with all instruments and their respective regions which reference the
122 selected sample once ore more.
123 * Restructured main menu: duplicated all popup menus to the main menu,
124 automatically switch to the right tree view tab when either selecting the
125 "Sample", "Instrument" or "Script" main menu entry.
126 * Dimension Region Selector: implemented multi zone selection by press and
127 hold CTRL key.
128 * Dimension Region Selector: show bottom and upper limit values for all
129 dimension zones, not just the currently selected ones.
130 * Dimension Region Selector: Fixed drawing issues when zone sizes were
131 altered by mouse drag and labels being displayed at wrong positions.
132 * Region Chooser: Double click opens dimension manager dialog.
133 * Dimension Manager: Clicking on dimension type cell of an existing dimension
134 opens a popup to alter the dimension type.
135 * Script Tree: Double click opens script editor.
136 * Fixed potential crash if exception was thrown while opening a gig file.
137 * Added support for visual progress bar while saving a gig file.
138 * Automatically switch the sampler's (audible) instrument whenever another
139 instrument was selected in gigedit (this default behavior can be switched
140 off in the settings menu of gigedit).
141 * Dimension Region Editor: Show coarse sample format info (audio channels,
142 bit depth, sample rate) and unique sample ID (since the gig format allows
143 different samples to have the same name).
144 * Dimension Region Editor: Added button "Select Sample" on the sample tab,
145 which allows to conveniently select the dimension region's sample on the
146 left hand side's samples tree view.
147 * Sample Referenve View Dialog: Clicking on a reference in the list closes
148 the dialog and jumps directly to the respective instrument, region and
149 dimension region the respective sample reference is located at.
150 * Fixed instruments, samples and scripts to appear twice after save.
151 * Implemented reordering of instruments by drag & drop.
152 * Implemented replacing of existing samples.
153 * Added "X" button next to sample reference field, which allows to remove
154 the current sample reference, allowing to create a "silent case" where
155 no sample shall be played.
156 * Fixed file name disappearing from title bar on certain actions.
157 * Added new menu item "View"->"Refresh All".
158 * Added new menu item "Samples"->"Remove Unused Samples".
159 * Region Chooser: when moving a region around automatically move the
160 keyboard position dependent pitch accordingly (can be turned off with
161 "Settings"->"Move root key with region moved").
162 * Added option to main menu for performing "Save" operation with a
163 tempoary file (may perform faster than directly modifying existing
164 .gig file).

177 (show a warning when resolving the relative path failed)
178 * keys on the virtual keyboard now highlight on note on events on
179 sampler side

184 * show absolute velocity value of note-on & note-off events below
185 the virtual MIDI keyboard
186 * renamed misleading names regarding the gig format's "keyswitching"
187 feature (the dimension is now displayed as "keyswitching" instead of
188 "keyboard" in the dimregchooser widget and the two parameters for
189 defining the actual keyswitching area on the keyboard in the instruments
190 properties dialog are now called "Keyswitching range low/high" instead of
191 "Dimension key range low/high")
192 * added "replace all samples" function to samples popup menu
