--User changes
-Allow users to set the Exp value when using the Exp temporal filter type.
-Set the default temporal filter type to be Box, which does not alter the palette values at all during animation. This is done to avoid confusion when using Gaussian or Exp which can produce darkened images.
--Bug fixes
-Sending a sequence to the final render dialog when the keyframes had non zero rotate and center Y values would produce off center animations when rendered.
-Temporal filters were being unnecessarily recreated many times when rendering or generating sequences.
-Exp filter was always treated like a Box filter.
--Code changes
-Add a new member function SaveCurrentAsXml(QString filename = "") to the controllers which is only used for testing.
-Modernize some C++ code.
-Give tabs a height of 4px in the qss files. Looks a little large on 4k screens, but just right on HD screens which are much more common.
-Allow for styling of zero and non-zero variation tree nodes via qss.
-Allow for toggling whether to interpolate between colors in the palette editor, or to do hard cuts between colors.
-Allow for adjusting spinner values with the + = or up arrow keys to increase, and - _ or down arrow keys to decrease.
-Allow for responding to global presses of + = and - _ to cycle up or down to specify which xform is set as the current one.
-Allow for adding "layers" via xaos which will add a user-specified number of xforms, and set certain xaos values to 0 or 1.
-Add a new menu item under the Edit menu to copy the OpenCL iteration kernel source to the clipboard.
-Show text on the status bar which indicates that an OpenCL kernel compilation is taking place.
-Show xform name on xform combo box when expanded. Adjust size to fit all names.
-Draw post affine circles using dashed lines.
-Prevent QSS dialog from styling its editor, which makes it easier to see text when creating styles which have custom colors for text boxes.
--Bug fixes
-Fix up some table layouts which seemed to have regressed/decayed over time for reasons unknown.
-Using undo/redo would create a new flame in the library every time.
-Solo was not being preserved when using undo/redo.
--Code changes
-Make the solo flag be a part of the flame data now.
-Fix some tabification in the OpenCL code for EllipticVariation.
-Fix tabification in the varState code for OpenCL.
-Add an event called m_CompileBegun to RendererCL that is called right before an OpenCL compile is begun.
--This required making RendererCLBase not a pure virtual base class. Member functions just return defaults.
-Filter key presses on main window to only process the third one. This is due to Qt triggering three events for every key press.
-The palette preview table was installing an event filter for seemingly no reason. Remove it.
-Mark certain virtual functions as override in SpinBox and DoubleSpinBox.
--User changes
-Add many tooltips to help clarify functionality.
-Select multiple flames in library for del/move. Still only one allowed to be set as the current.
-Show checkbox for current flame. Remember this is not necessarily what's selected.
-User can now drag a square to select xforms, which keeps in sync with checkboxes.
-Remove --nframes from command line. Replace with new params: --loopframes, --interpframes, --interploops.
-Add two new options to EmberGenome: --cwloops --cwinterploops to specify whether rotation should go clockwise instead of the default counter clockwise.
-Add these to Fractorium as checkboxes.
-Apply All now also works for toggling animate flag on xforms.
-Options dialog now allows user to set whether double click toggles spinners, or right click does.
--Bug fixes
-Selecting final and non-final xforms, and then dragging the non-final did not drag the final with it.
-Selecting all xforms when a final was present, then deleting crashed the program.
-Remove support for ppm files in the command line programs, it's an outdated format.
-Switching between SP and DP kept reapplying the palette adjustments.
--Code changes
-Move build system to Visual Studio 2015 and Qt 5.6.
-SSE used during addition of points to the histogram.
-Remove last remnants of old flam3 C code and replace with C++.
-Remove unused code involving tbb::task_group.
-Make settings object a global shared_ptr singleton, so it doesn't have to be passed around.
-Add animation sequence creation to Fractorium.
-Add two new options to EmberGenome which are used when generating an animation sequence.:
--startcount: Add this number to the filename of each flame.
--padding: Override the automatically calculated amount of padding zeroes added to each filename.
--Bug fixes
-Prevent filenames in command line programs from using scientific notation when rendering a large number of frames.
-Fix tab orders to match newer GUI items which were overlooked in previous releases.
-Re-render previews if transparency value in the options dialog was changed. Re-rendering was previously only done if early clip or y axis up was changed.
-Use transparency when rendering thumbnail previews.
--Code changes
-Wrap EmberCommon.h in a namespace called EmberCommon.
-Move FormatName() from EmberGenome to EmberCommon.h/cpp
-Add a prefix parameter to EmberFile::DefaultFilename() to allow for creating a default filename for sequences.
-When showing the final render dialog, allow specifying where it came from: the toolbar or the render sequence button.
-Refactor all preview rendering code out into its own class hierarchy with overrides for the main window and the final render dialog.
-Remove all preview render cancelling functions, they are now built into the new class hierarchy and a new render will not start until the previous one is stopped.
-Add two new function ConstrainLow() and ConstrainHigh() which wrap constraining two min/max spinboxes to each others' values.
-Add a bool to FractoriumEmberControllerBase::CopyEmberFile() to specify whether to copy the main file or the sequence file. This is somewhat of a hack and was done in a rush.
-Add a bool to FractoriumEmberControllerBase::SetEmberFile() to specify whether to move the file rather than copy. This is used in FinalRenderEmberController and improves efficiency.
-Add wrapper functions for variations filter dialog settings.
-Add a new option --statevars to EmberGenome to list the variations which change state.
-Allow for filtering in the Variations Dialog based on the same types listed in the EmberGenome options.
--Code changes
-More correctly populate VariationList::m_ParametricVariations and VariationList::m_NonParametricVariations to account for variations which have params only used for precalc.
-Consolidate some of the code in VariationList which searches by name.
-Edits will not save back to the file in memory on render completion when preview renderer is running.
--Bug fixes
-dc_perlin was crashing on Nvidia when using SP.
-Duplicate images were randomly getting added to the file in memory.
-Crash when opening an Xml with less than 2 flames in it.
--Code changes
-Use raw array of floats in OpenCL for perlin noise, rather than float3/double3.
-Add some default cases to dc_perlin.
-Redo singleton pattern yet again. Deriving from a templated Singleton<T> class was creating a separate instance per module. Now only one instance of each type will ever be created and it will be wrapped in a shared_ptr which guarantees its deletion as main() exits.
-Split VariationList into .h/cpp files.
--Make VariationList.cpp the only place where the variations files are included from. This speeds up the build, but variations can no longer be directly instantiated.
--Variations are no longer exported.
-Allow locking of the scale at which affine circles are displayed.
-Allow user to toggle whether xform will be animated when generating sequences. Also show the animate value when loading.
--Code changes
-More conversion to C++11 style code.
-Add another value to the eXformUpdate enum called UPDATE_CURRENT_AND_SELECTED in anticipation of future work.
-Remove some old #defines.
-Convert all enums to class enum to be consistent with C++11 style.
-Convert some if/else statements in filter classes to case statements.
-Add overloaded stream operators to print various enums.
--User changes
Thread image writing in EmberAnimate and when doing animation sequence in final render dialog.
