Changes since IEv3.0
--------------------
- REQUIRES DOS2.x MINIMUM!!!!!!!! Sorry, but IE will no longer work under
AmigaDos 1.3 or earlier. If you need IE for Workbench 1.3 or earlier then
contact me for a previous version of IE.
- Now uses DOS2.x new-look screens and windows.
- Replace IE requesters and menus with calls to DOS2.x requesters and menus.
This makes IE look more standard and allows the use of "third-party"
requester and menu enhancer programs like ARQ, MFR and MagicMenu.
- The size of images being edited in IE is now configurable allowing IE
to use less memory when only dealing with small icons.
Defaults to 320 x 128, configurable up to 640 x 256.
- Main display window now updates FAST!!!!
- The resolution of IE's screen is now configurable.
Defaults to HIRES, configurable up to SUPERHIRES with INTERLACE.
- Magnification factor is now configurable.
- Colour swapping routines are now limited to the actual size of the icon
and hence are MUCH FASTER!
- Scale icon image from 1/8 size to 8 times size.
- Preview window nows opens as a full-screen borderless window to display
more of the icon. It can now be closed by clicking the right mouse button
in the window.
Future enhancements planned
---------------------------
- Workbench 2.1 or later language locale support. I have users who can do
the German and French translations but I haven't found out how to do it
yet.
- Drawing tools. Now that magnification has been implemented I will start
to work on putting in some line/box/circle type editing tools.
- Menu option to select autosave intervals or even to disable autosave.
- Menu option to turn off pattern matching totally in file requesters.
- Iconify to application icon. Use icon for loading icons by dragging icons
onto application icon.
- Pattern fills for icons rather than boring solid fills.
- Adjust position of text in icon.
- Cut and Paste image portions.
- AREXX control.
