143      instruments of the same file.
144

176      and make.
177    
178    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
179      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
180      Debian 6.
181    
182    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
183      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy.
184    
185    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
186      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
187      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
188      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
189    
190    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
191    
192    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
193      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
194      wrong main widget hidden state.
195    
196    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
197    
198    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
199      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
200      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
201      targets (--enable-debug).
202    
203    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
204    
205    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
206      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
207      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
208    
209    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
210      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
211    
212    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
213      a menu separator has been added.
214    
215    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
216      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
217    
218    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
219      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
220      lame green solid background :).

223      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
224

234    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
235    
236    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
237      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
238      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
239      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
240      a sampler the next time.
241    
242    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
243    
244    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
245    
246    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
247      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
248      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
249      (default none).
250    
251    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
252      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
253      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
254    
255    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
256      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
257      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
258      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
259    
260    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
261      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
262    
263    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
264      screwed.
265    
266    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
267      e.g. by other frontends.
268    
269    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
270      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
271      (fixes segfault on device changes)
272    
273    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
274      "View" main menu.
275    
276    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
277    
278    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.

280    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
281      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
282    
283    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
284      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
285    
286    
287    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
288    
289    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
290      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
291      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
292      default.
293    
294    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
295      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
296    
297  * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though  * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
298    the main menu and toobar are not visible.    the main menu and toobar are not visible.
