Photoflare v1.6.2 released! 1


Photoflare v1.6.2 has been officially released. This release includes some important bug fixes. Expect installers to appear on the website within the next few days.

Fixed building on OpenMandriva Cooker

Github user “AngryPenguinPL” submitted a patch for compilation with clang and the lld linker. (#248) This will make any OpenMandriva users extra happy or really the developers who package up the software for them.

Zoom definitions

Before explaining the changes below it makes sense to explain certain concepts relating to image zoom.

  • Autozoom – When you open an image the zoom level will be set automatically depending on the image size.
  • Step zoom – Zooming an image by picking a value from the zoom combobox.

Fixed zoom in transition from autozoom to step zoom

*Initial value set by Autozoom.

  • Previous – 46% goes to 33%. Obviously incorrect value.
  • Current – 46% goes to 50% which is the next increased value on the combobox.

Fixed zoom out transition from autozoom to step zoom

*Initial value set by Autozoom.

  • Previous – 46% goes to 600%. Obviously incorrect value.
  • Current – 46% goes to 33% which is the next decreased value on the combobox.

Minor changes but very important too. The zoom bugs were annoying me for a while but only recently I had the time to fix them. That’s it for this release!
