Changes in GIMP 2.7.3
=====================


UI:

 - Use GimpSpinScales instead of scale entries in all dockable widgets
 - Allow the spin scale to control a range larger than its scale's range
 - Implement RTL mode in GimpSpinScale
 - Add lots of tooltips to tool options
 - Allow to drop more things to the empty image window, and simply
   create new images from them
 - Cage tool: allow to add handle to the cage when clicking on an edge
 - Cage tool: allow to remove selected handles from the cage by hitting delete
 - Remember column widths in multi-column dock windows
 - Support starting GIMP in single-window mode
 - When the brush is shared among paint tools, also share all
   brush-modifying paint options
 - Use ALT+number and ALT+Tab shortcuts to navigate between images
   in both single- and multi-window mode
 - Make 'Export to' always activatable and fall back to 'Export...' if
   no export target has been set yet
 - In single-window mode, add new dockable dialogs to the image window
   instead of in a new window
 - When switching on single-window mode, put docks in the image window
   depending on what side of the window they originally had
 - When switching off single-window mode, distribute dock windows
   better
 - Add a canvas item for the transform grid, fixing a major speed
   regression, and add the same guides options as in the rectangle tools
 - Don't unmaximize the single-window mode image window when closing
   images
 - Resurrect the "You can drop dockable dialogs here" help string
   below the toolbox
 - Make pick-and-move with the Move Tool work for layers in a layer
   group


Core:

 - Add GimpMotionBuffer which abstracts away stroke smoothing behind
   a simple API and takes it out of GimpDisplayShell
 - Add a GimpIdTable utility class
 - Add a GimpDockContainer interface
 - Add a GimpSessionManaged interface
 - Add GimpCanvasRectangleGuides which makes the rectangle tool's
   guides draw properly


Libgimp:

 - Make libgimp depend on GdkPixbuf
 - Add API to create layers from cairo surfaces
 - Make it impossible to include individual files from any GIMP
   library. This was always forbidden and designed so it most
   probably breaks, but now it reliably breaks using #error
 - Deprecate the "set_sensitive" logic and use g_object_bind_property()


Plug-ins:

 - Use poppler's cairo API to load PDFs, the pixbuf API is removed
 - Port screenshot from GdkPixbuf to cairo
 - Fix the annoying parser build warnings in imagemap
 - Add a check-for-deprecated-procedures-in-script-fu make target
 - Update libpng code to not use deprecated API (file-mng and file-png)
 - Add an Item class to pygimp
 - Correct/update some labels and defaults in the JPEG plug-in's save dialog UI
 - Fix "Bug 596410 - gimp-image-get-filename returns NULL for imported files"


Developer documentation:

 - Many updates


Source and build system:

 - Make cairo a global dependency, starting at libgimpcolor
 - Require poppler >= 0.12.4
 - Remove gimp-remote for good, it has been disabled for years


General:

 - Some more undeprecations now that we use GTK+ 2.24
 - Fix lots of warnings that are new in -Wall in GCC 4.6
 - Lots of bug fixes and cleanup
 - Lots of translation updates

Reproducible: Always
