TRANSITION 1.2.1 MANUAL ADDENDUM © 1994 DarkSoftWare
CHANGES TO TRANSITION AS OF 9 DEC 1994 (Version 1.2.1):
BUG FIXES:
- Fixed problem with Preserve Aspect Ratio not properly working under
Scaling options. Now no longer produces 0 byte files when entering
only Width value.
CHANGES TO TRANSITION AS OF 5 SEP 1994 ( Version 1.2 ) :
NOTICE: Transition has been crunched in order to fit on the
main disk. No external libraries are needed to uncrunch
Transition. This will not affect the performance of
Transition, only the time needed to uncrunch and load
Transition.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
- No longer requires 68020 or higher. Will run on 68000 machine if
you so desire, though it is HIGHLY discouraged and will hardly
be useful, due to the lack of speed!
- PCX support limited to Type 3 and Type 5 files. No 24 bit support
for PCX as of yet. Currently limited to 256 color images.
- Monochrome PCX files automatically converted to B&W without need
for color quantizing. All options other than SCALING and OUTPUT TYPE
are ignored for 2 color PCX files. However, if you have other file
types, including >2 color PCX files in the batch list, you may
select any of the other options as before. This is just an added
bonus to be able to convert both B&W AND Color files in the same
batch process.
- During batch conversions, file information displayed above in the
gadgets for the single file conversions. Information being displayed
is as follows:
Name of file being converted
File type Width Height FileSize
Name of file as it will be saved
Note that this is identical to the single file processing. However,
this information will be displayed for each file that gets converted
in the batch process.
- Removed delays inserted to enable reading of text in the STATUS
gadget. Don't be concerned that the status bar whips across now!
- Recoded parts of Transition in assembly. Transition is a bit faster
as a result.
BUG FIXES:
- SLAMMED an Enforcer hit! :) Caused by freeing memory for the busy
pointer, even if not allocated! This one would cause a BIG TIME
GURU! Sheesh! Sorry about that! This puppy is now SQUISHED!
- Memory checking enabled for batch conversions. If you're saving your
files to RAM: and you don't have enough to convert a file in the
batch list, it will bypass that file and continue on with the rest
of the files in the batch list. No more crashes due to lack of ram!
CHANGES TO TRANSITION AS OF 8 AUG 1994 ( Version 1.1 ) :
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
- Added ability to select resetting of gadgets upon completion of a
processing job
- Added Floyd-Steinburg dithering option for ILBM output
- Added HIRES/INTERLACE/HIRES-INTERLACE switch for ILBM output
- Upgraded versions of most conversion modules
BUG FIXES:
- Proper path and file when using the ASL file requester.
- All supported filetypes now correctly report proper file sizes
and dimensions.
- Input and Output string gadgets now fully functional.
