Whats new ============================================================================= PhotoFolio 2.2 is internally a major upgrade and there may be some bugs that have filtered through testing. Please report any bugs or problems you encounter. The documentation is about three quarters complete and will be made available at the home page when complete. The language catalogs have not had the additions translated. If you are interested in doing yours, contact Steeple Software. * New version of imageio.library that fixes a CMYK jpeg file format loading problem and adds native PPM read and write support. * New version of proof.library that adds PPM file type support. * New version of exif.library that fixes a minor text description problem. * Added a recent projects list in main menu. * Added the number of projects to keep in the recent list in settings * Added a clear recent project list menu item in the settings menu. This item is ghosted if there are no recent projects in the list. * Fixed a bug in the information window where the lists of items in an could have garbage tagged to the end of the strings. * Fixed a bug in ARexx GetProofAttrs, where if an invalid proof handle is passed in, PF didnt return an error. * Fixed a bug in GetProof where if you specified SELECTED and there werent any proofs selected, you got a random number returned as the proofs id. * Added 'Save selected decoded images...' to the proofs menu in a browse window. * Rearranged the main project menu a little * Fixed a bug in add path to listtree where adding a subdirectory of another subdirectory sometimes caused all added paths to appear in their own separate folders instead of being nested. * Now you can abort the scanning of a directory in a browse window (the directory scan can take as long time for bigger directories or slow devices). * The settings window now shows only settings panels that are relevant to the current context. eg You dont see main window settings if you open a settings window from a browse window. * Fixed a bug in the vlab detection routines where a vlab object was created and never disposed. * Random enforcer hits/crashes with drag and drop to the listtree and between browse windows has been fixed. * New error window which treats all errors as files. eg Delete an error and you are deleting the file represented by that error. * Localized "Tag" and "Value" from the information window. * Fixed a bug in listtreeclass with saving projects on quitting if you didnt enter a filename. * Added 'show errors' to the browse window menu. This shows errors for that browse window in the error window, bringing it the front if auto error window is turned on in prefs. * Fixed showing and image from the attribute window when not using the english locale. * Localized the about window. * DirectoryView plug in module accecssable from the main window menu or from the context menu of a listtree path. * Export HTML plug in module accecssable from the export proofs as menu in a browse window. Export HTML settings appear in the regular settings rquester. 5.
