Dommage qu'il n'ait pas évolué.
Il y a pas mal de nouvelles fonctions dans les dernières versions.
Ca le rend encore plus dur à utiliser :)
Changes from Photodesk Version 3.08 to 3.09
-------------------------------------------
New features:
Redesigned user interface - All the icons and tools have been
redesigned to be clearer and easier to use
Zooming - Permanently on-screen magnifier dialogue with useful
pre-sets
Brushes - New sets of paintbrushes and airbrushes
Stamps - New stamps, including a series of regular polygons (in
normal, stellated and rounded forms)
New palettes
Another image processing option: 'Enhance negative'
Easy access to stamps directory
Unit locking in resize dialogue
Easy cropping and extending of images by constant amounts
Internationalisation - Both the installer and the main application
now support the internationalisation features of RISC OS
Changes from Photodesk Version 3.10 to 3.12
-------------------------------------------
A PDF with graphical examples of the 3.10-3.12 changes is available
from:
http://www.cjemicros.co.uk/photodesk
Textual Summary:
* Montage tools-Crop/Extend
Three additional edit features of the crop/extend frame function
have been added:
* Dragging one of the middle handles of an edge with ADJUST moves
the opposite as well.
* Dragging a corner handle moves all four edges. So dragging with
ADJUST means the reference point
of the movement is the frame's center.
* Dragging inside the frame with ADJUST will scale the frame
whereby the same amount of change in
x is used for y. Dragging inside the frame with both SELECT and
ADJUST pressed will (try to) scale
the frame preserving its aspect ratio. Move the pointer in
±x-direction to achive this.
* Equalise dialogue box
If an equalize process was done the histogram display of the image
is updated automatically. You might still
press the Update button if in doubt of course. Clicking with ADJUST
on the Auto button the margins are reset.
* Supported file name length
If an image is loaded from a foreign source, especially if it comes
from a PC running Windows© or Linux, the
file name might be really long. Though PhotoDesk has accepted such
files in the past, this could cause a crash.
PhotoDesk now shortens the file name, for display purposes, in a
sensible way to 33 chars if the name is
longer. So if a file is called 'The Erimitage of Sankt Petersburg in
Russia seen from the south in the evening of
December 2012/jpg' this might appear where necessary as 'The
Erimitage of...of December 2012'. Furthermore
PhotoDesk refuses to load files with a very long name (more then 103
chars) asking the user to rename it first.
* Interactive Help
PhotoDesk provides interactive help using RISC OS's Help application
now. Just start !Help along with
PhotoDesk and point to a subject of interest. Interactive help
supports English and German languages.
* Copy dialogue - Shadow preview
Slightly improved preview distinguishes between a drop shadow and a
highlight
* Preview of the used Brush/Airbrush
If using the tools Brush, Airbrush or even SpecialFX-Smudge/Smear it
is useful to get an idea of the size and
basic shape of the tip/nozzle you are about to use in relation to
the image to work on. Therefore you can now
press ALT while using these tools and the pointer is over the image.
The tip/nozzle is shown as a black &
white filled outline on an overlay inverting the image area. No
change to the image itself is made. The overlay
disappears as soon as ALT is released. Note: If using a larger
tip/nozzle there is a short delay in displaying the
overlay.
* Printing dialogue
Provision to fit an image automatically into the printable area. To
do this just click with ADJUST in the
preview pane of the dialogue window. Note a difference: This feature
scales and centers the image into the
print-able area. The both 'centre' buttons are using the whole paper
as reference to align the image.
* Improved Start up Banner
Photodesk's Installer application was rewritten to support a more
colourful banner. New installations will have
a 16millon colour startup banner instead of the previously used 256
colours.
