This results in faster painting on specific cases.Īs a by-product of the change, the color-from-gradient dynamics is nowįixed when the image has a color profile. GIMP now doesn’t replace the paint buffer on every dab if the paintĬolor/pixmap hasn’t changed. Welcome patches and new contributors! Faster painting ¶ WeĪre happy to do the occasional good deeds, but there are limits to what MacOS by the way), whereas GIMP is so enjoyably stable on GNU/Linux. Piling up in our bug tracker for this platform (same can be said on Seriously, none of our current developers use Windows and bugs are This is a good time to make a call again:Īre you a Windows developer? Do you love GIMP? Please contribute! Therefore we are mostly hoping it will work as expected, and Note also that it is not fully tested because of our lack of Windowsĭevelopers. It should be only a temporary workaround since eventuallyīy fontconfig, the upstream library used to manage fonts. Therefore we added this non-admin font folder to our search path when Windows 10 users indeed now have the ability to Though not fully tested, we now have a temporary support of a new Support of user-installed fonts on Windows ¶ Thanks to Tobias Ellinghaus, well known as a darktableĭeveloper, TIFF can now export images without merging layers. Sharp angles (previously, all points were smooth and this is still the default).Ĭorner points are displayed using a diamond shape, instead of a circleĪnd the type can be changed in the Curves tool. Smooth points produce a smooth curve, while corner points result in Add smooth or corner curve-point types ¶Ĭontrol points can now be either smooth or corner points. They allow setting the selected point’sĬoordinates numerically and accurately if needed. Two new spin-buttons labelled “ Input” and “ Output” are now available Curves tool specific interaction ¶Īdditionally, some improvements are specific to the Curves tool: Numeric input of Curves tool points ¶ Likewise, the coordinate indicator shows the snapped coordinates. Useful for adding points along the curve. Y-coordinate will snap to the original curve. When holding down Ctrl while adding or dragging a point, the Point, the coordinate indicator now show the point’s position, rather Selecting a point with a quick click without moving it, and adjustingĪdditionally, when the cursor hovers above a point, or when dragging a Relatively to its current position as the cursor moves. When dragging an existing curve point, it won’t “jump” anymore to theĬursor position upon pressing the button. Is an improvement both to the Curves tool and all other places whereĬurves need tweaking (currently paint dynamics and input device settings): Relative motion when dragging points ¶ The interaction with curves in general has been greatly enhanced, which Improvements and features ¶ Improving curves editing and Curves tool ¶ Generic curves interaction ¶ Free Select tool now creates a preliminary selection.Incremental mode in the Dodge/Burn tool.Support for user-installed fonts on Windows.Still, some very cool improvements are also available: GIMP 2.10.12 is mostly a bug fix release as some annoying bugs wereĭiscovered, which is to be expected after a 2.10.10 with so many changes! “Don’t squash bugs… free them!”, by Aryeom, CC BY- SA 4.0 (a poetic approach to debugging)
