HISTORY of GRAFX:
* GRAFX 1.0ß -> 1.02 (09/??/95 -> 07/??/96)
Forget it!
* GRAFX 2.00 Beta 90% (11/01/96)
This version was 1st shown at the Wired'96 demo party in Belgium.
We gave it to most of the people there so let's start history from
here.
Note that there are a few different "90%" versions because we didn't
want to change the number just for tiny bugs.
* GRAFX 2.00 Beta 91% (11/20/96)
- Ugly bug in Help/Messages fixed (one line was too long and crashed
the program!).
- Added some new parameters for the settings.
- Now, you can automatically set the best resolution for the picture
loaded and/or slightly adapt the picture to keep the colors of the
menu (for those who want to use GrafX2 as a viewer).
- Fixed a bug that occured when you wanted to restore your previous
brush while being in "grab brush" mode.
- English user's manual written (will be updated later, and translated
into French).
- Displays no more pixels out of the preview window when loading
corrupted pictures.
- Small bug fixed in LBM loading (for non-standard widths).
- Fixed a minor error when saving the original screen dimensions in
PKM files. (we didn't save words with Intel conventions)
- Exactly the same bug for LBM (but with Motorola conventions)
- No more saving the current palette when exiting the program (that
was useless and boring when pictures had a weird palette).
* GRAFX 2.00 Beta 92% (11/27/96)
- Error message occuring when accessing a drive with no disk or so
finally suppressed!
- BMP loading was almost completely bugged and it should now be
completely debugged.
- Changed the Set_palette routine: the previous one was fast but did
not work with some shitty cards that don't support a REP OUTSB.
- Multi-Undo included.
- Backup included.
* GRAFX 2.00 Beta 93% (12/12/96)
- Fixed a bug that occured when you approached the borders of the
screen in grid mode with the type of cursor used for brush grabbing.
- Small but annoying bug when saving files with a name of 9 characters
fixed.
- Saved PAL files no longer modify the picture's name (some mistake
must have been done when we implemented the backup option).
- Two other tiny and not important at all bugs fixed.
- Some VESA video cards wanted to know the screen width even after a
call to INT 10h (Dunno why)... But this should be fixed now.
- Now, you can interrupt the loading of previews by pressing a key.
- Video cards that don't use the same VESA bank for reading and
writing should now work correctly.
- The display of the frame around the magnifier's preview has been
improved.
- Menu of resolutions completely modified and many new modes added.
- The default colors of the menu have been slightly lightened.
- The whole configuration is now saved and reloaded in the settings
menu.
