While good in theory, a WYSIWYG rich text editor for large video frames
was unwieldy (and in many cases unhelpful). Instead the titler will
show plain text/HTML tags so the user can still write rich text but
without the unwieldy UI.
For a true WYSIWYG experience, we would probably need to write a true
graphical editor (a la Premiere's titler), but that's a later goal.
This titler will be sufficient in a good majority of cases and there
are plenty of dedicated graphics packages if more complex titling is
required for the timebeing.
* Implements "auto-fit" setting for curve view and sets it on open.
* Improves scroll zooming on all TimelineViewBase derivatives.
* Improves code sharing for better maintenance.
The nodes now have more control over how their accelerated shaders/sample
functions are run, as well as how items are popped off the value tables.
This allows for various optimizations that we didn't have access to before.
The following sliders now have Alt Click functionality:
- Nodes (What it's initialy set too or 0 if not)
- Export Dialog Dimensions~ (Defaults to Sequence width/height)
- Export Compression Settings~
- Advanced (0)
- Speed/Duration
- Speed (100%)
- Duration (clip length)
- Stream Properties Image sequence
- Start Index (1)
- End Index (sequence length)
Sliders with no default value set ignore an Alt
Click.
Added SliderBase::SetDefaultValue() which sets the
default value of a slider.
Added ValueReset() to SliderBase signals which is
called if a slider is Alt Clicked on. Only updates
if default_value_ is not Null.
Rather than plugging a matrix into the video input node, the matrix is now
multiplied by the video input using a math node. This is probably more
sensible from a user perspective.
This also means the renderer is tolerant of texture sizes that are not equal
to the sequence size, however most nodes will downsample the texture to the
sequence size (and if not, it will be downsampled once it is cached). Textures
will still *always* be in reference space and the sequence's format. This seems
like the best compromise between backend and frontend congruity.
A huge optimization that ensures only the parts of a node graph that have
changed get pushed to the renderer. For thread-safety, the node graph is
copied elsewhere so that users can make changes asynchronously and the graph
can update when its threads are ready. Up until now, if an input value changed,
every node's values would be re-copied, or worse, if a connection was changed,
the entire graph would be recopied. This has been negligible in testing since
we've been largely testing with small graphs, but for massive projects, it's
important that this be as optimized as possible.
Also includes general improvements to the slider widget such as an optional
"autotrim" function to cut off trailing zeroes, a "format" string that's easier
to internationalize, and general tidiness.
This required various changes to various parts of the infrastructure (mostly
using paths to finding the "root project" of any given object throughout).
Now theoretically infinite projects can be opened and accounted for at any
given time.
Prevents unnecessary re-caching caused by the combobox signalling that its
value has changed when we're really just setting the value that the node already
has.
