GEGL provides a node/graph based API and framework for cached, interactive non-destructive image processing. GEGLs data flow image processing graphs are used by GIMP and other software like gnome-photos, imgflo and iconographer. Highlights of changes in this release: Core: • less locale dependent serializations/parameters • fix local raw file detection of ARW and CR2 files • gegl_memset_pattern performance improvement • clean up the way we drop references and free memory • static caching of some frequently used babl formats/types. • mipmap preview render code fixes for the following subset of operations: point operations (filter, and composer subclasses), integer translate, crop. Operations: • new ops: edge-neon, image-gradient, slic, wavelet-blur, waterpixels, watershed • moved from workshop to common: color-warp, component-extract • text: remove now unneeded work-around, ability to control vertical positioning, permit <1.0 font-sizes, handle text-color alpha, other improvements. • lens-distortion: default to transparent background • crop: bounding box computation simplifications • noise-rgb: add gamma and distribution properties • dither: renamed from color-reduction and improved ui/property controls. • high-pass: do inversion, over and contrast in non-linear RGB • noise-rgb: new linear and gaussian properties • transform: added a clip-to-input property • raw-load: improvements to handling of Sony's ARW files • exposure: replaced offset with black-level • moved from common to workshop: bilateral-filter-fast • new workshop ops: bayer-matrix, linear-sinusoid, shadows-highlights, integral-image, segment-kmeans, • removed ops: gaussian-blur-old To build gegl-0.3.12 you will also need babl-0.1.24 which has recently been released with various new performance short-cuts and profiling cache improvements.
