Qtpfsgui 1.9.2:
A new version is out, hopefully this will fix the several "filename encoding" bugs that afflict the windows version.
Noteworthy are also the modifications to the Mantiuk algorithm by Ed Brambley (speed improvement and changed behavior) and a graphical widget that enables the user to change the language.
Season of Usability:
Qtpfsgui participates at the 2008 edition of season of Usability.
Season of Usability is a series of sponsored student projects to encourage students of usability, user-interface design, and interaction design to get involved with Free/Libre/Open-Source Software (FLOSS) projects.
So if you feel like Qtpfsgui usability can be improved you can read more here.
New version (1.9.1):
Qtpfsgui 1.9.1 has been released. This is a small update with these main features/bugfixes:
- Fixed the align_image_stack "missing prefix" bug
- Users can now save the preview of a HDR
- Added hdr panoramic functionality (projections).
- Fixed bug in exif code leading to crash when having utf8 characters in the path and/or filename.
(read the Changelog or the README file for more details)
German translation of the manual:
Thomas Martin has provided a German translation of Qtpfsgui's manual, thank you Thomas!
New version (1.9.0):
After a long time, here's the new version of Qtpfsgui: 1.9.0.
Here's a list of the main new features:
- Interactive anti ghosting.
- Hdr creation wizard revisited (increased usability).
- Added manual anti-ghosting feature (for LDRs only)
- Fixed Mantiuk tone mapper glitch
- Removed integrated dcraw implementation: now using the external executable (this removes the libjpeg direct dependency)
- Fixed durand02 bug (range=0)
- Added commandline interface
- Clicking on the tone mapper progress bar in the interactive tone mapping dialog will terminate the tone mapping process
Since this release contains quite some changes, it's possible for the code to be slightly unstable. This means that the previous version will still be available and treated as the "stable" branch, see
download below.
