Version 0.90 of WinGIF has quite a few bug fixes and several
enhancments. The biggest addition is the ability to save GIF files.
I also enhanced the dithering algorithm with an option to darken
the shadow areas in the picture. Depending on the image the little
change can make a big difference. You can also select a different 16
color palette. It can improve a dither but usually I prefer the
primary palette. The full window function now zooms to full screen
but the window only zoom is still available by pressing Alt F2.
Since preliminary copies of WinGif have started to float around the
BBS's I'm going ahead and making this version available as ShareWare.
It should replace any previous versions.
There are a few features of WinGif that can probably use some
explaination. You can use a mouse to "drag" a rectangle for cliping
to the clipboard or triming in WinGif. WinGif works primarily from
Windows Device Indepentant Bitmaps stored in memory. Memory in real
mode may not be sufficient for many WinGif functions. The "Memory
Image" option can be used to enable or disable memory bitmaps. If
"Memory Image" is enabled WinGif will also create a device bitmap in
memory for faster updating to the screen. This can be disabled to
conserve memory by setting "Memory DIBs Only". Note that some of the
SVGA device drivers have bugs in the new Windows 3.0 call to display
a DIB. If you get upside down or garbled images you may need to leave
this option off.
With respect to the Shareware registration. There is no reminder box
just your conscience to encourage registration. If the reistration
response is good then I will have incentive to keep improving the
program. I'm sorry that enhancements have been so slow in comming
my plate is very full and I am only doing this for fun.
Comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
