Changelog for next version (released ones are on the official website now)

Updated to ​https://gitlab.com/GrafX2/grafX2/commit/5e4d2f570031304139d2e1fbfcad0e19078c5e69 , 11/11/2018

New features

• -size option to set the picture size directly from the command line
• GUI buttons now underline their shortcut to ease use of grafx2 with a keyboard
• Add various in-window navigation shortcuts to reach most buttons without the need for a mouse
• "Amstrad CPC rasters" drawing mode, similar to mode 5 but with more flexible constraints
• New backends supported: X11, SDL2, Win32 GDI. It is now possible to add more backends to build GrafX2 where SDL is not available.

Improvements

• Support for pasting on MacOS (so you can write text elsewhere and then copy it in GrafX2)
• Better handling of aspect ratio in GIF and PNG files (use the closest match possible)
• PNG files now have an "unknown" physical resolution (will print at an unknown size then)
• Use the teXt chunk from PNG for the coment field, if there is no Title chunk.
• Support unicode characters in filenames
• Use correct icon for network drives in the drive list
• Improved loading and saving support for C64 fileformats

Bugfixes

• CI system rework, automatically generated installers.
• Use the correct cursor for operations again
• Missing screen updates when using ZX constraint drawing mode
• Fix crash when restoring backups
• Do not allow panning (by holding space) during operations, it could do bad things
• PI1 files with colorcylcing were corrupt on saving
• Fix crash when saving to .SCR format in some cases
• It is possible to build for Atari systems again
• It is now possible to build GrafX2 with Microsoft Visual C++
• It is now possible to build for NetBSD and OpenBSD
• Filename is not lost when changing extension in the save dialog
• When alt-tabbing out of GrafX2, it would think that the ALT key is stuck pressed
• When cancelling a lasso brush grab, the previous brushwas sometimes not properly restored
• Do not crash if a lua script tries to open a window larger than 320x200. Now the window is hard-limited to 320x200
