Picture Window Pro full changelog

Updated lcms (color management system) to version 2.19.
File Open: you can now sort files in the file list by the date/time the photos were originally taken.
Slide Show Viewer: added the ability to sort slide slides in a slide show by name, file date or date taken
Fixed some cases where the hourglass icon was not being displayed during recalculation.
Added descriptions of Normalize operation in Multipoint Gradient to help file and Transformations.pdf. Added some larger probe size options for Multipoint Gradient.

Updated ExifTool to version 13.55.
Brightness Curve: fixed problems with histogram not being updated correctly when switching color spaces in some cases when histograms are based only on the masked parts of the input image.
Note that the color space settings for the masked and unmasked parts of the image are separate.

Brightness Curve: fixed problems with histogram not being updated correctly when switching color spaces in some cases when histograms are based only on the masked parts of the input image.
Note that the color space settings for the masked and unmasked parts of the image are separate.

Fixed problem with referencing the alpha channel masks resulting from opening transparent PNG or TIFF files.
Mask: if illegal flood fill seed coordinates are detected when opening an old script or workspace script file, a warning is now issued, and the associated flood fill operation is ignored. Previously an error message was displayed and the script was terminated.

Levels and Color Tool: fixed problem with applying the tool to 8- or 16-bit black and white images with non-zero mask transparency.
Size to Fit: added a Crop to Fill option and fixed some minor user interface problems.
Frame: changing the Base Size On setting no longer sets crop box to 10x8 proportions in some cases.

File New: fixed the way image width and height are calculated if units are not pixels.
Fixed problem with reading V5 BMP files in some cases.
Eliminated the hourglass cursor previously displayed during calculations. Instead, the Auto Recalc button icon is changed to an hourglass during long operations – this indicates Picture Window is busy and not responding to user input. A new bitmap requires a full install.

Auto-Recalc: fixed problems with more than the required images being recalculated when auto- recalc is turned back on.
Distort: added a new Edge Width slider. A value of 0% has no effect. Values greater than 0% force the edges of the input image to remain fixed so the output image remains rectangular. Larger values produce smoother results but reduce the amount of distortion near the edges.

Color Management: added a new setting to disable or enable warnings when profile mismatches are detected within a transformation. This only affects transformations that can combine multiple images including: Add Border, Blend, Composite, Difference, Filter, Frame, Layout and Stereo. The Frame setting added in the previous release was removed as it now falls under the new color management setting.
Resize: fixed problem with incorrect dpi set in some cases after loading a settings file. Auto/Manual Recalc: fixed problem with splitters and side branches retaining pink background when turning auto recalc back on.
Updated ExifTool to version 13.53.

Resize: added warning if output image would be very large with option to reset or continue.
Multipoint Gradient: fixed problems with creating 16-bit gradients.
Frame: added item to settings menu to suppress color profile mismatch warnings.

Added an auto/manual recalc button to the top of the main window (at the far right). This lets you postpone propagation of changes to transformations, which can save time if you are working with large images or transformations that are slow and want to make multiple changes without having to recalculate after each one. When auto recalc is turned off, thumbnails of transformations that require recalculation are displayed with a pink caption background. Turning auto recalc back on recalculates all transformations that require it. A warning is issued if you try to save an image or script with auto recalc turned off. If auto recalc is disabled, starting a batch operation turns if back on during the batch process and then back off again when it completes.
Monitor/Printer Curves: Clicking and dragging on an image highlights the parts of the curve corresponding to the brightness and color of the image.
Stretch: fixed some problems with dragging control lines past the input image boundary. Switched the horizontal/vertical selector from a drop-down menu to a tool bar at the top of the dialog box.
Two new bitmaps require a full install.
Notecard: added two new card layouts for 5x5 square images. These are designed to fit 5.75x5.75 inch envelopes.
Mask: fixed problem with resetting the initial image not graying out the undo button.
