* **Operations:**
* Force validate all operations on execute if they haven't been before, if validation fails it will show the message error
* Add some utility functions to ease layer and mat allocation in the file
* Layer remove: Disallow to select and remove all layers
* Tool - Edit print parameters: Retract speed wasn't propagating the value to normal layers
* File formats: Better control, set and checking for null/empty thumbnails
* **Scripting:**
* Add scripting capability, this allow to run external scripts inside the GUI and take advantage of visual layout to display user input fields
* Scripts run under the "Roslyn Scripting API" and can make use of the whole C# language, this mean a huge boost compared to PowerShell scripts
* Scripts are written in the same way UVtools is, by learning and programing scripts you are learning the UVtools core
* For more information see the script sample: https://github.com/sn4k3/UVtools/tree/master/UVtools.ScriptSample
* To run scripts go to: Tools - Scripting
* **File formats:**
* Add a check and warning when opening an file that have a diferent layer and file resolution
* **Issues:**
* Add "Print height" as new type of issue detection, all layers that goes beyond maximum printer Z height will be flagged as PrintHeight issue
* Print height issues will not be automatical fixed, however user can fix it by remove some layers to counter the problem, still is recommended to resize object on slicer
* Fix unable to compute issues when only islands or overhangs are selected to be detected alone (#177)
* **Settings:**
* Add default directory for scripts on "General - File dialogs"
* Add checkbox on "Issues - Compute - Print height" to enable or disable this type of detection
* Add numerical on "Issues - Print height - Offset" to define a custom offset from Z top
* Fix default directories input width to not grow with text, it was overflowing on large strings
* **Menu - Help:**
* Add web link to "Wiki & tutorials"
* Add web link to "Facebook group"
* Add web link to "Report a issue"
* Add web link to "Ask a question"
* Add web link to "Suggest an improvement or new features"
* **Core:**
* Fix some improper locks for progress counter and change to Interlocked instead
* Fix a bug when chaging layer count by remove or add layers it will malform the file after save and crash the program with some tools and/or clipboard
* Fix when a operation fails by other reason different from cancelation it was not restoring the backup
* When manually delete/fix issues it will also backup the layers
* **LayerManager:**
* LayerManager is now readonly and no longer used to transpose layers, each FileFormat have now a unique `LayerManager` instance which is set on the generic constructor
* Implemented `List<Layer>` methods to easy modify the layers array
* Changing the `Layers` instance will now recompute some properties, call the properties rebuild and forced sanitize of the structure
* Better reallocation methods
* **Clipboard Manager:**
* Add the hability to do full backups, they will be marked with an asterisk (*) at clipboard items list
* When a partial backup is made and it backups all the layers it will be converted to full backup
* Clipboard can now restore a snapshot directly with `RestoreSnapshot`
* Prevent restore the initial backup upon file load and when clearing the clipboard
* Clip's that change the layer count will perform a full backup and also do a fail-safe backup behind if previous clip is not a full backup
* **Pixel dimming:**
* Allow to load an image file as a pattern (Do not use very large files or it will take much time to dump the data into the textbox)
* Empty lines on patterns will be discarded and not trigger validation error
* **Core:**
* Write "Unhandled Exceptions" to an "errors.log" file at user settings directory
* Increase layer height max precision from 2 to 3 decimals
* **Settings - Layer Preview:**
* Allow to set hollow line thickness to -1 to fill the area
* Add tooltip for "Auto rotate on load": Auto rotate the layer preview on file load for a landscape viewport
* Add option to masks outline color and thickness
* Add option to clear ROI when adding masks
* Add option "Auto flip on load": Auto flip the layer preview on file load if the file is marked to print mirrored on the printer LCD
* **Layer preview:**
* Add selectable rotation directions 90º (CW and CCW)
* Add preview flip (CTRL+F) horizontally and/or vertically
* Add maskable regions to process on a layer (SHIFT + Alt + Click) on a area
* ROI: Shortcut "Shift + left click" now also selects hollow black areas inside a white perimeter
* ROI: Shortcut "ESC + Shift" to clear only the ROI and leave masks in
* Fix a crash when using the pixel picker tool outside image bounds
* **Pixel editor:**
* Change drawings brush diameter limit from 255 to 4000 maximum
* When using layers below go lower than layer 0 it no longer apply the modifications
* **File formats:**
* Add an internal GCodeBuilder to generate identical gcode within formats with auto convertion, managing features and parsing information
* Internally rearrange formats properties and pass values to the base class
* Fix "Save As" filename when using formats with dual extensions
* CBDDLP and CTB: "LightPWM" was setting "BottomLightPWM" instead
* CWS: Fix problem with filenames with dots (.) and ending with numbers (#171)
* CWS: Improved the enconding and decoding performance
* CWS: Implement all available print paramenters and per layer, missing values are got from gcode interpretation
* CWS: Use set "light off delay" layer value instead of calculating it
* CWS: Get light off delay per layer parsed from gcode
* CWS - RGB flavour (Bene4 Mono): Warn about wrong resolution if width not multiples of 3 (#171)
* ZCode: Allow to set Bottom and Light intensity (LightPWM) on paramters and per layer
* ZCode: Allow to change bottom light pwm independent from normal light pwm
* LGS: Light off and bottom light off was setting the value on the wrong units
* UVJ: Unable to set per layer parameters
* **Issues:**
* When computing islands and resin traps together, they will not compute in parallel anymore to prevent CPU and tasks exaustion, it will calculate islands first and then resin traps, this should also speed up the process on weaker machines
* Gather resin trap areas together when computing for other issues to spare a decoding cycle latter
* When using a threshold for islands detection it was also appling it to the overhangs
* Fix the spare decoding conditional cycle for partial scans
* Change resin trap search from parallel to sync to prevent fake detections and missing joints at cost of speed (#13)
* **Tools:**
* Add layer selector: 'From first to current layer' and 'From current to last layer'
* I printed this file: Multiplier - Number of time(s) the file has been printed. Half numbers can be used to consume from a failed print. Example: 0.5x if a print canceled at 50% progress
* Pixel dimming: Increase wall thickness default from 5px to 10px
* Import layers: Importing layers was not marking layers as modified, then the save file won't save the new images in, to prevent other similar bugs, all layers that got replaced will be auto marked as modified
* (Improvement) Cache per layer and global used material for faster calculations
* (Improvement) Better internal PrintTime management
* **(Improvement) GUI:**
* Show per layer used material percentage compared to the rest model
* Show total of millimeters cured per layer if available
* Show bounds and ROI in millimeters if available
* Show display width and height below resolution if available
* Don't split (Actions / Refresh / Save) region when resize window and keep those fixed
* **(Improvement) Calibrate - Grayscale:**
* Add a option to convert brightness to exposure time on divisions text
* Adjust text position to be better centered and near from the center within divisions
* (Fix) Calculate the used material with global layer height instead of calculate height from layer difference which lead to wrong values in parallel computation
* (Fix) Converting files were not setting the new file as parent for the layer manager, this affected auto convertions from SL1 and lead to crashes and bad calculations if file were not reloaded from the disk (#150, #151)
* (Fix) PositionZ rounding error when removing layers
* (Upgrade) EmguCV/OpenCV to v4.5.1
* (Upgrade) AvaloniaUI to 1.0
* (Improvement) GUI re-touched
* (Improvement) Make pixel editor tab to disappear when pixel editor is disabled
* (Improvement) Simplify the output filename from PrusaSlicer profiles
* (Improvement) All operations require a slicer file at constructor rather than on execute, this allow exposure the open file to the operation before run it
* (Improvement) Calibrations: Auto set "Mirror Output" if open file have MirrorDisplay set
* (Change) Tool - Redraw model/supports icon
* (Change) photon and cbddlp to use version 3 by default
* (Add) Tool - Dynamic layer height: Analyze and optimize the model with dynamic layer heights, larger angles will slice at lower layer height
while more straight angles will slice larger layer height. (#131)
* (Add) Calibration - Exposure time finder: Generates test models with various strategies and increments to verify the best exposure time for a given layer height
* (Add) File load checks, trigger error when a file have critical errors and attempt to fix non-critical errors
* Layers must have an valid image, otherwise trigger an error
* Layers must have a incremental or equal position Z than it previous, otherwise trigger an error
* If layer 0 starts at 0mm it will auto fix all layers, it will add Layer Height to the current z at every layer
* (Add) Tool - Edit print parameters: Allow set parameters to each x layers and skip n layers inside the given range.
This allow the use of optimizations in a layer pattern, for example, to set 3s for a layer but 2.5s for the next.
* (Add) Layer height property to "Layer Data" table: Shows layer height for the slice
* (Fix) When automations applied and file is saved, it will not warn user about file overwrite for the first time save
* (Fix) Tool - Redraw model/supports: Disable apply button when no file selected
* (Fix) Tool - Infill: Lack of equality member to test if same infill profile already exists
* (Fix) Auto converted files from SL1 where clipping filename at first dot (.), now it only strips known extensions
* (Fix) SL1 encoded files wasn't generating the right information and lead to printer crash
* (Fix) PrusaSlicer printer "Anycubic Photon S" LiftSpeed was missing and contains a typo (#135)
* (Fix) PrusaSlicer profile manager wasnt marking missing profiles to be installed (#135)
* (Fix) PrusaSlicer folder search on linux to also look at %HOME%/.config/PrusaSlicer (#135, #136)
* (Fix) Operations were revised and some bug fixed, most about can't cancel the progress
* (Fix) Some typos on tooltips
* (Fix) Prevent PhotonS from enconding, it will trigger error now as this format is read-only
* **(Fix) Ctrl + Shift + Z to redo the last operation:**
* The layer range is reseted instead of pull the used values
* Tool - Arithmetic always disabled
* Action - Layer import didn't generate info and always disabled
* (Add) Settings - Automations: Change only light-off delay if value is zero (Enabled by default)
* (Fix) Calibrators: Some file formats will crash when calibration test output more layers than the dummy file
* (Fix) Undo/redo don't unlock the save function
* (Add) Auto-updater: When a new version is detected UVtools still show the same green button at top,
on click, it will prompt for auto or manual update.
On Linux and Mac the script will kill all UVtools instances and auto-upgrade.
On Windows the user must close all instances and continue with the shown MSI installation
* (Add) Tool profiles: Create and remove named presets for some tools
* (Add) Event handler for handling non-UI thread exceptions
* (Fix) Mac: File - Open in a new window was not working
* (Fix) Tool - Rotate: Allow negative angles
* (Fix) Tool - Rotate: The operation was inverting the angle
* (Fix) Tools: Select normal layers can crash the program with small files with low layer count, eg: 3 layers total
Mostly text updates, with a few adjustments
to dialog box layouts or controls.
Presets for Threshold, for example, where changed
from buttons to a combobox selections.
Allowed the line splits added by Designer to remain, but
did fix any mid-word breaks.
