Version 1.00
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Initial release of Positive Image. See READ_ME.TXT for details of changes to
the program since the manual went to print.
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Version 1.10
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Obscure iconification bug quashed.
* Obscure colour selection bug quashed.
* Obscure clash with customised Desktop colours fixed.
* Insufficient memory for redo buffer now handled correctly.
* Outsize images (exceeding 8 times the screen height and/or width now
loaded and rescaled correctly.
* Several block selection/redraw bugs fixed.
* Bleaching out of zoomed True Colour images when running in 16 colour
modes now fixed.
* Screen redraws properly beneath 'unused' part of small windows.
* Now works with BlowUp-FX boards fitted with Fast RAM.
* Filtering speeded up and now works right up to edge of image/block.
* Filtering a block no longer results in an outline around the block.
* Improved memory management now allows much larger (in terms of kilobytes)
images to be loaded (subject to enough free memory of course).
* Screen redraws about 40% faster in 256 colour modes.
* Now redraws only the tiles which have changed (all modes).
* Eliminated time outs when printing large images.
* Trace Area (usually called Magic Wand on other packages) now around 300%
faster!
* Added direct output option for faster printer throughput.
* Printing speed increased. Now averages around 335% faster on mono
printers, approximately 35% faster for colour (based on an A4 size image,
varies from one printer to another).
* Multiple mask areas implemented (see READ_ME.DOC for details).
* Pixel precise selection of bezier control points at all zoom levels.
* A few more bug fixes and several areas of the program speeded up.

Version 1.11
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Removed obsure bug which caused the Undo buffer to misbehave if the swap
file was enabled. Only ever happened if you followed a set pattern of
events. Not serious but best removed.
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Version 1.12
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Removed bug in the saving of traced areas to the Clipboard which resulted
in the block definition being lost.
* Added support for the loading of compressed BMP images (previous versions
supported uncompressed BMPs only).
* Added support for 24-bit paletted (256 colours from 16.7 million) PCXs.
* The first release of the 68040 version of Positive Image. It is an
optimised version with in-line FPU code for 68030+FPU and 68040 equipped
machines. Now included in the standard package at no extra
charge.
* Added NOVA graphic card support.
