Compared to the latest stable release (1.0.1), this version includes...
too many things to list them all! Nevertheless, I would like to mention
a few important features (in no particular order):
* Support for KIPI plugins, which brings you lots of fancy image
manipulation possibilities.
* Support for animated images.
* Fast MMX-optimized image smoothing.
* Asynchronous image loading, so the application do not look frozen
while loading a big image.
* Two KParts: one to display an image, another to browse folders.
* Nifty On Screen Display toolbar.
* Brightness, contrast and gamma adjustment.
Version 1.1.8 has been released. Thanks to the hard work of Lubos Lunak,
this new version can play MNG and GIF animations!
Here is the complete list of changes:
New features:
* Zoom actions added to both KPart's.
* Support for animated pictures.
* Fast image scaling function from Imlib2/Mosfet (select 'fast' smoothing
in the configuration dialog).
* Added an item in the "Windows" menu to reset the window layout to the
default configuration.
Fixes:
* "Lock zoom"/"Auto zoom" options fixed.
* Fixed "Clear location"/"Location" shortcuts.
* Make it impossible to undock the file view. It should be easier for new
users to use it this way.
* Fixed crash which could occur when copying multiple files.
Since there was some trouble building the 1.1.7 version on some distributions,
I just released version 1.1.7a.
A new development release is out: version 1.1.7. You can get it from the
download page. It features the following changes:
New features:
* Double clicking the image view toggles the full screen mode (By Daniel
Thaler)
* It's now possible to select which KIPI plugins should be loaded.
* The On Screen Display now contains "Previous", "Next" and "Exit
fullscreen" buttons. These buttons automatically hide when the cursor hides
itself.
* Adjust brightness, contrast and gamma.
* Going to next/previous image in the image KPart.
Fixes:
* If the URL given as an argument is a directory, start in browse mode, not
in view mode.
* On Screen Display is back, it was broken in 1.1.6.
* Updated man page.
* KIPI Batch image processing tools now work again.
* Fixed a few bugs in image saving.
* Made the save error messages more explicit.
* Removed the "show toolbar/menubar/statusbar in fullscreen" options.
* When selecting multiple images with Ctrl or Shift, block the "double click
an image goes to fullscreen" feature.
* Removed the "Auto load image" option, it's useless since Gwenview does not
block anymore when loading images.
* Fix reloading in the image KPart.
This new version uses the first release of KIPI, the KDE Image Plugin
Interface. It features the following changes:
New features:
* The application now has two modes: browse and view. Browse mode shows
all views: folder, file and image. View mode only shows the image.
Gwenview starts in browse mode except if an image URL is given as an
argument. You can switch between modes using the toolbar button, or with
the "View/Browse mode" menu item or with the Ctrl+Return shortcut.
* JPEGTran code has been integrated into Gwenview, there's no need to
install it separately anymore.
Fixes:
* Update the EXIF thumbnail when rotating a JPEG file.
* In the folder view, folders now open with a single click (By Daniel
Thaler).
* Reworked coordinate conversions in order to avoid subtle paint errors.
* Remember computed optimal repaint sizes in the config file, so they are
available immediately after next start.
* Remember shown URL after session restore.

Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
