Log Message:
Updated py-mcomix to 1.2.1.
MComix 1.2.1
Release date: 2016-02-12
ENVIRONMENT/LOCALE/TRANSLATIONS:
- Fixed a bug that made it impossible to open a book with MComix directly if
the path contains spaces (Windows only)
- Updated libraries for the Windows distribution: UnRAR DLL
MComix 1.2
Release date: 30.01.2016
GUI/MAIN:
- If metadata-based rotation is enabled, PNG files will be automatically
rotated as well.
- Double page mode respects Exif rotation now.
- Some transformation issues have been fixed. In double page mode, all
transformations are applied to the union of both pages. Also, reflection
is performed first, followed by rotation.
- Some OSD issues have been fixed.
- When flipping pages, the content of the viewport does not appear
somewhere else first anymore.
- The default scaling quality is now "Bilinear".
GUI/THUMBNAILER:
- The thumbnailer now displays page numbers in a reasonable color
appropriate for the respective background color.
- The thumbnailer uses the same size for all thumbnails now. If thumbnails
need to be rescaled, it is done using linear interpolation.
- When using the keyboard, the thumbnailer now tries to keep the currently
selected page in the upper half of its area.
- The size of the thumbnailer is calculated more reasonably now.
- Fixed a bug that could lead to crashes if the thumbnailer uses a dynamic
background color.
- The "missing image" icon appears in its original size in the \
thumbnailer.
- Fix race condition that could lead to thumbnails being rendered with
different sizes.
- Added a workaround for a bug in gdk-pixbuf that could prevent thumbnails
of animated GIF images from being rendered properly. For details, see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735422
- Re-enabled double buffering for the thumbnailer.
GUI/LIBRARY:
- Some encoding issues with the library have been fixed.
- The cover display in the library has been fixed.
- The book area uses a tighter layout.
- Various other issues with the library have been fixed.
GUI/EDITARCHIVE:
- Applying changes in the "Edit archive" dialog could raise an \
exception
under certain circumstances. This has been fixed.
- Fixed a bug that prevented MComix from shutting down properly if an
archive with no images in it has been opened or the "Edit \
archive" dialog
has been used.
- Some issues with displaying thumbnails in the "Edit archive" \
dialog have
been fixed.
GUI/WM:
- Fullscreen handling has been improved.
- The Preferences dialog is not modal anymore.
- When clicking on the thumbnailer while the main window is unfocused, the
window should be focused only without switching to another page. This has
been fixed so it works properly now.
- Modal dialogs do not immediately hide the mouse cursor in the main area
anymore.
- Fix various minor window manager interaction issues.
- The default window width is now 640 pixels.
GUI/MISC:
- You can select the text in the Properties dialog now.
- The "Continue reading" dialog defaults to "Yes" now.
- Dialogs refresh their respective contents whenever you switch to another
page or book.
- The password dialog now displays the path of the archive.
- Overall widget handling has been fixed and improved. This also eliminates
some GTK warnings.
- Fixed a lot of issues with empty directories and empty archives.
- File name filters and supported formats handling have been improved.
- Various other issues with the Preferences dialog and the Properties
dialog have been fixed.
- Recently opened PDF files are now listed in the "Recent Files" menu.
ENVIRONMENT/LOCALE/TRANSLATIONS:
- The list of supported image formats is now determined dynamically,
depending on the underlying libraries. This might implicitly add support
for image formats such as WebP.
- Due to a bug, PIL (or Pillow) was preferred over GdkPixbuf on Windows
in earlier versions. Now, GdkPixbuf will be preferred on Windows as well.
- MComix uses czipfile when available to speed up extraction of
encrypted zip files.
- Zombie processes will be removed if possible.
- Some issues related to child processes have been fixed. Unnecessary
console windows should not appear anymore.
- File descriptors will be properly closed when possible. This fixes an
issue especially on Windows where files used to stay "locked".
- Searching for external tools (e.g. MuPDF) is performed more properly now.
- Temporary directories will be created only when necessary and will be
deleted as soon as the corresponding book has been closed.
- The shebangs now ask for python2 instead of just python so we do not
accidentally run Python 3.
- comicthumb has been rewritten to make it consistent with MComix.
- Some locale issues have been fixed.
- The French translation has been updated.
- The Russian translation has been updated (by Ulyanich Michael).
- The Korean translation has been updated (by Gyeongmin Bak).
- Fixed PDF support with newer versions of MuPDF (1.7 and 1.8).
- Better support for using the 7z executable: encrypted files are now
supported (including encrypted header support, and for all supported
formats: 7z, RAR and ZIP).
- Fixed an issue with unrar.dll that could lead to crashes if 7z is also
present.
- Improved detection of available RAR extractors. (unrar-free is currently
incompatible with MComix and will be ignored.)
- Fixed support for LHA archives (they were always marked as empty).
- Fixed support for tar.xz archives (they were always marked as empty).
- Updated libraries for the Windows distribution: Pillow 3.1.0 and
UnRAR 5.30
- On Windows, MComix normally appears to be frozen on startup while
fontconfig is updating the font cache. As a workaround, a window will be
displayed.
- Fix MComix not starting when 'auto load last file' is on and the last
attempt at opening a file was an invalid path
- The Windows icon file mcomix.ico has been updated.
MISC:
- The MIME database has been updated.
- The Py2Exe workaround has been removed.
- A Wine-based helper script allows building Windows versions of MComix in
Wine.
- Huge code refactoring, cleanups and documentation updates
- Various minor bug fixes and improvements
- New code and examples for testing, improved logging
- New version numbering scheme in compliance with PEP440
- ChangeLog updated for MComix 1.01
