v1.7.0

What's Changed

Get v1.7.1 instead which fixes a crash.

• Major reworking of the UI by introducing a fully functional menu bar (closes #64). This entirely replaces the previous clunky edit panel, as well as several other UI elements. It also greatly simplifies the code for adding keyboard shortcuts, since it automates and centralizes both the processing and documentation of shortcuts in the new menu bar classes
• Toolbars are now scrollable if they don't fit horizontally on the screen
• Added several new keyboard shortcuts (as shown in the menu bar)
• More of the keyboard shortcuts are now shown directly on the corresponding UI elements (e.g. shown alongside entries in dropdown combo boxes).
• Updated images in the readme

• The info panel now dynamically adjusts precision of image statistics like the min, average, max
• Removed submodules and switched to using CPM.cmake

  • GUI shows selected tool's overlay on the image (e.g. the circle/ellipse of the brush)
  • paint brush supports smoothing of mouse cursor movements using Chaikin's quadratic b-spline corner-cutting algorithm (centripetal Catmull-Rom also an option, but commented out)
• Added a foreground/background color selection widget in the toolbar that is shared by all tools
