85    
86    * Added application description as freedesktop.org's AppData.
87    
88    * Added this "Don't ask/show this again" option to some if not most
89      of the nagging warning/error message boxes.

109    * Added support for SF2 instrument names/preset enumeration.
110    
111    * Added instrument list popup on channel strip which shows up when
112      the instrument name is clicked. Allows faster switching among
113      instruments of the same file.
114    
115    * Adjusted configure check for libgig to detect its new --libdir
116      (impolitely forcing the user now to have at least libgig 3.3.0).
117    
118    
119    0.2.3  2013-12-31  A fifth of a Jubilee.

136

144    
145    * Fixes for cross compiling and building for Windows with configure
146      and make.
147    
148    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
149      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
150      Debian 6.
151    
152    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
153      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy.
154    
155    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
156      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
157      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
158      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
159    
160    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
161    
162    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
163      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
164      wrong main widget hidden state.
165    
166    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
167    
168    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
169      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
170      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
171      targets (--enable-debug).
172    
173    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
174    
175    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
176      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
177      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
178    
179    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
180      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
181    
182    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
183      a menu separator has been added.
184    
185    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
186      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
187    
188    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
189      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
190      lame green solid background :).
191    
192    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
193      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
194    
195    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
196    
197    
198    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
199    
200    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
201      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
202      ever may follow ;)
203    
204    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
205    
206    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
207      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
208      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
209      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
210      a sampler the next time.
211    
212    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
213    
214    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
215    
216    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
217      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
218      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
219      (default none).
220    
221    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
222      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
223      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
224    
225    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
226      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
227      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
228      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
229    
230    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
231      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
232    
233    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
234      screwed.
235    
236    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
237      e.g. by other frontends.
238    
239    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
240      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
241      (fixes segfault on device changes)
242    
243    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
244      "View" main menu.
245    
246    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
247    
248    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
249    
250    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
251      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
252    
253    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
254      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
255    
256    
257    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
258    
259    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
260      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
261      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
262      default.
263    
264    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
265      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
266    
267    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
268      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
269    
270    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
271      creating a new sampler channel.
272    
273    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
274    
275    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
276      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
277      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
278      first time).
279    
280    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
281      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
282    
283    * Added Windows file path support.
284    
285    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
286      under win32.
287    
288    * Qt4 port of the application.
289    
290    
291    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
292    
293    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
294      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
295      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
296      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
297    
298    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
299      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
300      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
301      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
302    
303    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
304      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
305      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
306    
307    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
308    
309    
310    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
311    
312    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
313      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
314      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
315    
316  * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.  * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
