--Add support for Exr files which use 32-bit floats for each RGBA channel. Seems to come out too washed out.
--Allow for clearing an individual color curve.
--Allow for saving multiple image types in EmberRender and EmberAnimate. All writes are threaded.
--Remove --bpc command line argument. Add format png16 as a replacement.
--Remove --enable_jpg_comments and --enable_png_comments command line arguments, and replace them with --enable_comments which applies to jpg, png and exr.
--Add menu items to variations and affine spinners which allow for easy entry of specific numeric values like pi.
--Make final render dialog be wider rather than so tall.
Bug fixes:
--Fix some OpenCL compile errors on Mac.
--Remove ability to save bitmap files on all platforms but Windows.
Code changes:
--New dependency on OpenEXR.
--Allow Curves class to interact with objects of a different template type.
--Make m_Curves member of Ember always use float as template type.
--Set the length of the curves array to always be 2^17 which should offer enough precision with new 32-bit float pixel types.
--Set pixel types to always be 32-bit float. This results in a major reduction of code in the final accumulation part of Renderer.h/cpp.
--Remove corresponding code from RendererCL and FinalAccumOpenCLKernelCreator.
--Remove Transparency, NumChannels and BytesPerPixel setters from Renderer.h/cpp.
--Add new global functions to format final image buffers and place all alpha calculation and scaling code in them.
--Blending is no longer needed in OpenGLWidget because of the new pixel type.
--Make new class, AffineDoubleSpinBox.
--Attempt to make file save dialog code work the same on all OSes.
--Remove some unused functions.
--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.
-Really fix locking of affine scale.
--Code changes
-Remove dependency projects from the solution. Move to a project design where they are built once via command line and stored in a /Deps folder.
--Because of this, libpng is built as a static lib instead of a dll because that's what its command line makefile supports.
--Remove libpng16.dll from Wix installer.
-Remove all configs except for debug and release.
-Remove all platforms except for x64.
-Add #define __TBB_NO_IMPLICIT_LINKAGE 1 to prevent tbb from locking for tbb_debug.lib by default on debug builds.
-Put Ember.rc in a filter folder in the project.
-Place pragma warning disable statements in PCH files rather than in projects. This makes it easier when using Qt Creator.
-Move all resource files to the MSVC folder.
-Set all targets in QtCreator project to their lowercase names to be more *nix friendly. Set -l link statements to use these new lowercase names for ember and embercl.
-Rework projects to favor shadow builds.
-Remove the symlinks.sh file and all references to it. It was never needed. Instead, just specify multiple include and link paths in the .pro files.
-Change WIN32 to _WIN32.
-Fix a few code warnings.
