- Several new functions for GimpProcedureDialog for automatic dialog
generation based on input arguments. Though not mandatory, the
various functions allow to organize better the widgets.
+ - The GimpProcedureDialog class will now check that mnemonics are
+ present on every option, and also that there is no duplicate
+ mnemonics. It will print messages on stderr if any of these test
+ fails (so that it won't bother users but developers and translators
+ should be able to get feedback about missing/duplicate mnemonics).
+ - GimpSaveProcedure now has generic metadata support (with an API so
+ that an export procedure can declare whether it supports given
+ metadata types or contents).
+ Combined with a new subclass GimpSaveProcedureDialog (child of
+ GimpProcedureDialog), this ensures that:
+ * If a format supports a given metadata, they will always have an
+ auxiliary argument with the same name across plug-ins.
+ * The label and tooltips will also be always the same in the GUI.
+ * Order of metadata widgets will also stay consistent.
+ * The widgets will work the same (no more "Comment" text view
+ missing in one plug-in but present in another, or with an entry
+ here, and a text view there, and so on).
Plug-ins:
- - file-fli updated to new dialog generation API.
+ - file-fli, file-tiff, file-jpeg and file-png updated to new dialog
+ generation API. In the most complicated case (file-jpeg), this
+ shaved 600 lines out of the plug-in code.
