- 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.
