gthumb-2.11.1.tar.gz

This is the first development release in a series leading to gthumb 2.12


What is gthumb
==============

gthumb is an image viewer and browser utility for the GNOME environment.
The README file distributed with the tar archive contains a complete 
list of features and the instructions to compile the source.


Overview of changes from gthumb 2.10.11 to 2.1.1
================================================

    New features and user visible changes:

    * Added a video/audio player.  Added ability to take a screenshot of
      the current video.
    * Allow to edit IPTC/XMP fields.
    * Added 3D effects to the slideshow transition.
    * Use a tree view for the folders.
    * Catalogs are listed in the folder tree instead of using a different
      pane.
    * Allow to create custom file filters.  Allow to view any kind of file
      not just images, audio and video files.
    * Allow to search files in the libraries (catalog collections).
    * Added tool to automatically organize files in catalogs, based on
      the file creation or modification date.
    * Allow to choose the metadata to display in the file list.
    * The cut and red-eye removal tools are now integrated in the image
      viewer, instead of using a separate dialog.
    * Added an "Adjust colors" tool to modify the colors of an image in
      single place.
    * Group imported files by date, automatically creating a catalog for
      each different date, furthermore creates a catalog with all the
      imported files.
    * Removed the Tools menu, the file list tools are now listed in a
      toolbar dropdown button.
    * Allow to add files to catalogs using the context submenu, instead of
      using a separate dialog.
    * Use a context submenu to open a file with an external application
      instead of using a separate dialog.
    * Allow to set a custom name for the bookmark menu items.
    * Added a delete command to permanently delete files without moving 
them
      to the trash.
    * Allow to choose the metadata to print, instead of just allowing to
      print the comment.
    * Moved the system bookmarks in the Bookmarks menu.
    * Allow to set the file type specific options in the preferences dialog
      instead of always asking them before saving a file.
    * The image properties are displayed in a sidebar, no more at the
      bottom of the image.
    * Removed the Image menu. Image tools are now listed in a sidebar
      when the image viewer mode is active.
    * Allow to set a title and a date for the catalogs.
    * Searches are updated in place, without the use of a separate dialog.
    * Removed the script menu, and moved the scripts in a toolbar dropdown
      button. Simplified the script editor tough it still requires some
      advanced skill to be used.
    * Started work to use modern icons. New Tango-ized application icon
      by Ulisse Perusin.

    Technical changes:

    * Rewritten the whole code in order to use an extension (or plug-in)
      based architecture that allows to add new features with ease.
    * Removed the use of old and deprecated libraries such as gnome-vfs,
      libgnome, libgnomeui, libgnomecanvas, libbonobo and many others.

    Regressions:

    * Some tools, present in the 2.10 series, are missing because of the
      complete code rewrite.  Some of these tools are considered important,
      such as the web album exporter, and will be added during the 2.11
      development series, other secondary tools will added in the next
      development cycle (2.13).
