At the moment we have modes for:

• ResizeImage
• ResizeCanvas

This doesn't cover the use case of New File and does not allow custom setup for creating new files or excluding options from the dialog easily.

Proposal to use the following modes instead:

• NewImage
• ResizeImage
• ResizeCanvas

Need to improve the cropping behaviour on the Qt5.6 release.

Need to change startup to create the conf file in the photoflare config directory before the app starts main.

Got an e-mail with a feature request for text alignment options such as center. Soon we will offer left, center and right alignment options in the TextDialog.

PhotoFlare now available on AlternativeTo.

Would be nice to have a portable build of the software that users could just download the zipped folder with all the required libraries included to run the executable.

The Mac installer we just had for the 1.0 release but we need an updated version for the next version

Sven suggested a feature to upload images easily and get back the link to share it.

Pointer settings contains shape drawing options. These need to be implemented fully.

Diffing tool keeps on outputting duplicate strings that do exist across files.
The reported example case
Outside frame

This occurs due to a difference in case between tags
src:
https://github.com/PhotoFlare/photoflare/blob/master/languages/en.ts#L1376
vs
https://github.com/PhotoFlare/photoflare/blob/master/languages/de.ts#L1310

For now will open PR to ignore case in diffing_tool but can also fix ts files upon request

Selection square need to movable by holding Mouse, Keyboard left, right, top, bottom arrow.

Need to prompt user to restart the application for the change to happen.

Leaving this here to keep track of building RPM installers.

The docs show compare to return int:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qversionnumber.html#compare

However the code currently uses a bool value. Meaning it will return true even for older versions online.

On first startup of the application it seems to be very slow on Windows systems

Windows
Cold start: 3 - 7s
Warm start: 1s

Linux
Cold start 1s
Warm start 1s

Need to research ways of improving this before we hit v2.0.

Setting RGB mode and Indexed mode does not currently work correctly. It applies a direct filter for that mode rather than setting a mode for other functions to use when a particular filter is applied.

Hi,
I'm using Debian 9, installed the dependencies and compiled the project using Qt Creator.
Everything went smooth except the language selection doesn't seem to work, after selecting french and clicking OK, the interface stays in english. Nothing is printed in the console.

Any ideas? Thanks :)

Windows version currently builds with Windows 8 and Qt5.6. Currently need to migrate to Windows 10, Qt5.9.3 and the latest Graphicsmagick lib too.

This will match the build setup for Linux.

Reported in via support e-mail. Fails to run on Linux Lite systems. (based on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS)

Request came in via e-mail. In order to stop crop lines from disappearing we need to exclude the crop selection lines from the zoom.

Tracking progress of the snap build here. A SNAP yaml has been created but it does not seem to work just yet:
https://github.com/PhotoFlare/photoflare/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml

Think we need to use a scale value depending on the zoom level to improve the visibility of the line on large image formats.

Just a reminder to work on the User documentation for the website.

Cannot paint by clicking pixels at the moment. It works on movement for now which is fine for artist workflows. Need to consider workflows such as Pixel art. (game development)

Need to fix the LineTool preview at some point. Used to work in previous releases.

Need more options other than just using white as the erasing colour.

Experienced issue after using TextTool where my previously selected tool (PointerTool) was not selected.

The crop hotspots could do with cursors for showing the actions to take for the user.

Requested by a small company working on 2D games. The option to create background colours of transparent with the new file dialog.

The new status bar for image size does not update after cropping an image. May also have to consider updating this after undo/redo.

1fb84c4 There's no Netherlands.png and the build fails.

@Dean-Coakley

We should not be remembering and restoring the dialog size in case newer versions change the size of the dialogs. No reason to remember the size regardless.

Have a look at writeSettings and remove lines like this:
settings.setValue("size", window->size());

In readSettings remove lines like:
window->resize(settings.value("size").toSize());

All dialogs contained in this folder:
https://github.com/PhotoFlare/photoflare/tree/master/src/dialogs

If you do File>>Close the status area will update the image dimensions. If you just close a tab, it will not. Needs to be resolved at some stage but low priority.

Question via e-mail about a feature to lock the ratio in Resize image. We already have this feature as a toggle button on the dialog but I think maybe its just not enabled/on by default.

I installed it on mint, all dependencies are good according to the installer but the program doesn't start at all.
I know it state ubuntu but mint is based on ubuntu lts 16.04, so i thought it would work.

How can i get this program working?

Edit: I used the 64bit deb file, double click on it and installed it. All dependencies are for filled it states.
Shortcut is made in the menu but if you click on it nothing happens.
I tried the 32bit version also, same result.
Tried to build it with qt creator but got a configuration error

Need to get into the Store to get much more users and visibility of the project.

Already submitted to Getdeb.net:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/getdeb.net/+bug/1632672

Submitted to Ubuntu here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1711644

What should each of these items display?

It would be handy to have Travis CI running on 16.04 Ubuntu as the platform if possible.

Selecting a new tab somehow changes the selected tool.

I think Batch status should go back to being a progress bar. It was like this in a build a long time ago and since replaced with text:

• "Ready"
• "Working"

Progress bar will give more accurate feedback as to how long the processing will take.

At the moment we have too few options in the right click menu. Some functions are already available and need to be put into the menu before the next release.

Properties dialog seems to work for opened files but not files you just saved:

A button to optionally hide the dialog would be great. Also perhaps to save this option for the future would be useful.

Need to collaborate with our contributors to update the language packs to cover the new screens/features for the upcoming 1.5.1 release.

If the user has not set any language in preferences maybe set the language based on the system language.
