  Imager 0.45 Release Notes  printable version
 / Home / Releases /

Imager 0.45 has been released and will soon be available on all CPAN mirrors.

This is primarily a bug-fix release. The following issues have beenfixed:

  • the dynamic filters Makefile would fail after everything had been built on Win32

  • the correct error messages are now produced for Freetype 2.0 errors

  • multiple master fonts are now supported by the freetype 2 driver

  • we now attempt to use freetype-config and pkg-config when probing for and configuring freetype 2.

  • we now attempt to use pkg-config when probing for and configuring libpng

  • we don't accept a directory indicating freetype 2.x headers as a freetype 1.x installation any more

  • reading a TGA image with a long (>127) idstring would result in an allocation error.

  • calling the read() method for a format supported by Imager but not supported by the current build (eg. reading a JPEG without libjpeg installed when Imager was built) no longer crashes with an undefined function error.

  • the i_glin() XS code wasn't copying the returned colors back correctly

  • the right-side bearing calculated for freetype2.x wasn't scaled from a fixed point number to an integer, this would cause pos_width() to be much luarger than was correct if the right-most character overflowed the character box.

  • saving a gradient file with Imager::Fountain->save() missed outputting a space between the last 2 parameters of each segment.

  • methods that work with an image and return a new image now warn when called in void context.

  • the Imager::Matrix2d rotate() method would only use the x and y parameters if both were non-zero.

  • the FT1.x driver ignored the align parameter.

Documentation changes:

  • added a concept index for perldoc Imager

  • more examples in Imager::Draw

  • added examples to all filters in Imager::Filter

  • many minor documentation fixes

New/improved features:

  • Imager::Fountain can read newer GIMP gradient files containing NAME lines

  • color names can now be used where color objects were required for most filters.

  • all font drivers now return an display_width() and right_bearing() value.
