-2010-01-27  6.5.9-1 Glenn Randers-Pehrson <glennrp@image...>

-  * Make -define png:color-type less persnickity about what it will accept.

-

-2010-01-24  6.5.9-1 Anthony Thyssen <A.Thyssen@griffith...>

-  * added use of -precision in 'showkernel' output of -morphology

-  * correct use of a 'reflected kernel' for 'Convolve' 'Dilate' and

-    'Distance' Morphology primatives. This does not have a performance hit,

-    though is only truely applicable when the kernel is asymmetric.  Note that

-    'Erode' does not use a 'reflected' kernel, so that 'Open' and 'Close'

-    operations work properly.  This 'reflected usage is defined by online

-    morphology lecture notes (Google for "EECE Binary Morphology")

-  * Added convolve kernel scaling setting "-set option:convolve:scale N"

-    If undefined morphology convolve does not do any scaling or normalization

-    of the convolution kernel.  A value of 0.0 causes normalization for both

-    zero and non-zero (added weights) kernel types.

-

-2010-01-15  6.5.9-1 Cristy  <quetzlzacatenango@image...>

-  * Speed up reading the PSD image format.

-  * Add the -precision option.  Use it to set the maximum number of significant

-    digits to be printed.

-  * Add -features option to the identify program to display channel features.

-

-2010-01-01  6.5.9-0 Cristy  <quetzlzacatenango@image...>

-  * Add support for compact floating point (i.e. -depth 16 -define

-    quantum:format=floating-point).

-  * Transparent images no longer flicker on certain system when using the

-    display program.

-  * Permit interactive resizing with the display program.

-  * Support heterogeneous distributed processing, see

-    http://www.imagemagick.org/script/architecture.php#distributed.

-  * Fix semaphore assertion when reading a corrupt image with Magick++.

-  * Add support for -brightness-contrast option.

-

-2010-01-05  6.5.9-0 Stephan Menzel  <stephan.menzel@gmail...>

-  * Add support for the BGRA raw image format.

-

-2010-01-04  6.5.9-0 Anthony Thyssen <A.Thyssen@griffith...>

-  * Added Kernel Generator to generate kernels from user strings, which

-    allows the generation in many built in kernels for both Convolution

-    and other Morphological methods.  New Kernels currently include..

-      Convolution: Gaussian, Blur, Comet

-      Morphological: Rectangle, Square, Diamond, Disk, Plus

-      Distance: Chebyshev, Manhatten, Knight, Euclidean

-    And both old and new (rectangular) user defined kernel specifications

-    including the use of 'nan' to represent elements which are not part

-    of the kernel definition.  List built-in kernel types use "-list kernel"

-  * Added -morphology {method}[:{iteration}] {kernel_string}

-    Initial methods includes no only the basic morphology methods: Dilate,

-    Erode, Open, Close; and a pixel color preserving 'Intensity' version, but

-    also the special methods: Convolve, and Distance.  Of course the

-    appropriate kernel should be provided for each specific method.

-

-2010-01-01  6.5.9-0 Cristy  <quetzlzacatenango@image...>

-  * Add OpenCL-enabled filter (e.g.  convert image.png -process

-    "convolve '-1, -1, -1, -1, 9, -1, -1, -1, -1'" image.jpg).

-  * Added StringTo...() processing functions

-

-  * Progress on "-define png:bit-depth=value" and "-define png:color-type=value"

-    It is now able to write an opaque black-and-white image in any of the 15

-    valid combinations of PNG color-type and bit-depth.

-  * Fixed a regression with writing sub-8-bit grayscale PNGs.

-

-2009-05-06  6.5.2-2 Chris Madison  <madisonblu@gmail...>

-  * Accept "-define png:bit-depth=value" and "-define png:color-type=value"

-    options.  This is work-in-progress with the objective of being able to

-    precisely specify the type of PNG file to be written.  The previously-used

-    internal attribute "png:bit-depth" that was used to communicate between

-    the PNG writer and the JNG writer is changed to "png:bit-depth-written".

-    This feature needs testing.  It is important to note that this feature

-    cannot be used to force the PNG to use a bit-depth or color-type that

-    does not losslessly represent the image.  You can, however, cause

-    the writer to use a larger depth or to use the RGB colorspace when

-    grayscale or indexed would have been sufficent.

-2007-10-12  6.3.6-2 Anthony <anthony@griffith...>

-  * Least Squares coordinate handling added for -distort methods Affine,

-    Perspective, Bilinear.   This allows for more than the minimal number of

-    coordinates to be used to 'fit' a distortion function to an image.

-    This addition will allow the use of image registration to generate

-    panarama overviews and better geographical coordinate correction.

-  * Cosolidated the simular methods FlattenImage() and MosaicImage()

-    into a new layers function MergeImageLayers() method, adding 'flatten'

-    and 'mosaic' layer methods.

-    normal flatten/mosaic layer merger from the origin, The resulting image

-    will have a virtual canvas of minimal size with an offset. Also images

-    with negative offsets will not be clipped by the 'merge' form of the

-    command.  This was created for better layering of distorted images, such

-    as panarama overlays.

-    multiple coordinate distortion function fitting)

-

-2007-09-22  6.3.6-0 Cristy  <quetzlzacatenango@image...>

-  * Check the API version and quantum depth before loading a coder module or

-          image filter (reference

-    http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9780).

-  * Add exception to the image filter signature.

-  * Get the execution path under Mac OS X.

-

-2007-09-12  6.3.5-9 Anthony <anthony@griffith...>

-  * Major Addition,  Area Resampling Functions, (scaled interpolation)

-    for pixel lookup in Distortion functions.  This improves the look in

-    areas of minification enormousally, especially in situations of infinite

-    tiling and horizon views.  All virtual pixel methods have been handled

-    to minimise computation time involved with area resampling.  To use the

-    new function distortions need to be able to determine scaling vectors

-    (distortion function derivitives) for correct working.  All

-    -distort methods, except Arc, uses scaled area resampling.

-  * Improvements to perspective distort method, to include the correct

-    differentation between the 'ground' on which the image lies, and the

-    'sky', the color of which can be set using the -mattecolor setting

-    (as the distortion invalid pixel color). Background color is retains

-    for surrounding ground areas. The horizon is also correct anti-aliased

-    and transparent colors are also allowed, allowing you to add backdrops

-    of gradients and patterns.

+  * Accept "-define png:bit-depth=value" and "-define png:color-type=value"
+    options.  This is work-in-progress with the objective of being able to
+    precisely specify the type of PNG file to be written.  The previously-used
+    internal attribute "png:bit-depth" that was used to communicate between
+    the PNG writer and the JNG writer is changed to "png:bit-depth-written".
+    This feature needs testing.  It is important to note that this feature
+    cannot be used to force the PNG to use a bit-depth or color-type that
+    does not losslessly represent the image.  You can, however, cause
+    the writer to use a larger depth or to use the RGB colorspace when
+    grayscale or indexed would have been sufficent.

+2009-04-21  6.5.1-4 Glenn Randers-Pehrson <glennrp@image...>
+  * Sometimes the PNG8: format would produce 1-, 2-, or 4-bit PNG datastreams.

+  * Further expandsion and handling of filters with expert options.
+    -filter selects from a table of standard filter settings, while
+    expert options allow complete selection of filter, windowing, support
+    and blurring options.  Includes automatic switch from Sinc to Bessel
+    for operators using 2 dimentional cylindrical filter, rather than

+
+2007-10-12  6.3.6-2 Anthony <anthony@griffith...>
+  * Least Squares coordinate handling added for -distort methods Affine,
+    Perspective, Bilinear.   This allows for more than the minimal number of
+    coordinates to be used to 'fit' a distortion function to an image.
+    This addition will allow the use of image registration to generate
+    panarama overviews and better geographical coordinate correction.
+  * Cosolidated the simular methods FlattenImage() and MosaicImage()
+    into a new layers function MergeImageLayers() method, adding 'flatten'
+    and 'mosaic' layer methods.
+  * Addition of another simular layers method 'merge' which 'unlocks' the
+    normal flatten/mosaic layer merger from the origin, The resulting image
+    will have a virtual canvas of minimal size with an offset. Also images
+    with negative offsets will not be clipped by the 'merge' form of the
+    command.  This was created for better layering of distorted images, such
+    as panarama overlays.
+  * Bug fix in handling transparency for EWA resampling.
+  * Access to Resize Filter Functions from resize.c (for resample.c)
+    with posible future filter sources... Acquire/Destory/Call ResizeFilter()
+  * All resize filters added to resampling, but filter handling is incomplete.
+
+2007-10-05  6.3.6-2 Cristy  <quetzlzacatenango@image...>
+  * The box filter no longer produces a black grid when resizing an image
+    under Mac OS X.

+          file as required under Windows.
+
+2007-09-29  6.3.6-0 Anthony <anthony@griffith...>
+  * Added Scaling 'derivitives' to -distort Arc, so image arcing is now
+    sharp and clear as you approach the center of the distort.
+  * Added  " -set option:distort:viewport 'geometry' " special option
+    that can be used to override the output image size and offset.
+  * Fixed experimental use of -filter and -support in Resampling (more later).
+  * Changed order for coordinate arguments in -distort (for later leastsq
+    multiple coordinate distortion function fitting)
+
+2007-09-22  6.3.6-0 Cristy  <quetzlzacatenango@image...>
+  * Check the API version and quantum depth before loading a coder module or
+          image filter (reference
+    http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9780).
+  * Add exception to the image filter signature.
+  * Get the execution path under Mac OS X.
+  * TIFFTAG_STRIPBYTECOUNTS requires a uint32 pointer (magick/compress.c).
+  * Fixed memory leak in CloneString() (reference
+    http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9763).
+  * Set S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR | S_IRGRP mode when writing a file in
+    CopyDelegateFile().
+
+2007-09-18  6.3.5-9 Anthony <anthony@griffith...>

+
+2007-09-12  6.3.5-9 Anthony <anthony@griffith...>
+  * Major Addition,  Area Resampling Functions, (scaled interpolation)
+    for pixel lookup in Distortion functions.  This improves the look in
+    areas of minification enormousally, especially in situations of infinite
+    tiling and horizon views.  All virtual pixel methods have been handled
+    to minimise computation time involved with area resampling.  To use the
+    new function distortions need to be able to determine scaling vectors
+    (distortion function derivitives) for correct working.  All
+    -distort methods, except Arc, uses scaled area resampling.
+  * Improvements to perspective distort method, to include the correct
+    differentation between the 'ground' on which the image lies, and the
+    'sky', the color of which can be set using the -mattecolor setting
+    (as the distortion invalid pixel color). Background color is retains
+    for surrounding ground areas. The horizon is also correct anti-aliased
+    and transparent colors are also allowed, allowing you to add backdrops
+    of gradients and patterns.
