Hello people,
I know it's been a long time but... a new beta version of LazPaint is ready (version 7.0.1).
https://github.com/bgrabitmap/lazpaint/releasesBinaries not generated yet. Though you can compile it using latest version BGRABitmap 10.2 and of BGRAControls.
There are some issues with the translation files:
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,45980.0.htmlHere is a list of changes.
FILE FORMAT
New support
- ICO/CUR format: it is possible to select a size and also to add/remove an icon size
- GIF format: it is possible to select a frame and also to add/remove frames
- SVG format: loaded as a vectorial layer that can be transformed
- TIFF format: images in L*a*b* can be loaded
- LRS and RES multi-file containers: create, load and save into them
There is new button in the toolbar to choose the image entry (icon size or GIF frame).
Misc
- there are options to remember last save directory and format after closing the app.
- better choice of color depth when saving
DRAWING TOOLS
For now shapes cannot be edited after validation. They are still rasterized.
Improvements of the following tools to allow rotation and transform:
- rectangle
- ellipse
- gradient: can shear the diamond and radial gradients
- phong shape
- text: layout box, paragraph alignment, blur radius in tenth of pixels, better support for Unicode
- selection rectangle
- selection ellipse
Misc:
- finer zoom when holding CTRL key.
- ratio can be specified for selection rectangle/ellipse
LAYERS
New tool: zoom layer.
At the layer level, it is now possible to move, rotate and zoom a layer without rasterizing it. This is true for raster layers and also for SVG layers.
