Hi, I have just updated the PhotoFlow code on GitHub, with lots of enhancements and bug fixes. The most important new features that have been added are:
- export the edited image to jpeg or tiff - image zooming - creation and editing of complex layer masks (called layer maps in PhotoFlow) - some new tools and blend modes
This is probably the first usable version of the program, as it is now possible to save the work in either the internal PhotoFlow format (to save the layer structure and all the imge settings) or to various raster formats. The code seems to be already reasonably stable, so that it can be used for some basic photo editing work.
There is a first detailed step-by-step tutorial on the PhotoFlow web page, which shows how to use most of the existing features. More tutorials are planned, whenever the time will allow to write them... I've put a screenshot from the tutorial in attachment just to give you a glimpse of what can be done. This file can be downloaded from the PhotFlow website if you want to play with the program and you do not want to start from scratch. Just click on the "testimages" at the beginning of the tutorial sections, and extract the zip file (run an antivirus if you are unsure, but as it only contains tiff and text files and it was created under linux, I'm pretty confident that it is clean).
For the next update I plan to introduce several new features: - simple hand drawing for selective editing - sopport for loading, decoding and development of RAW formats - several sommon tools like unsharp mask, cropping and resizing.
Thanks for looking and commenting.
