Bug fix release 1-May-2019

[jsachs]

I have posted a new release (1-May-2019).

The changes (taken from the update log) are:

Amount controls: fixed problem causing some valid masks not to show up in the image menu.

Fixed some issues with the display and image zooming after adjusting the position of the separator between the image browser and the main image area.

Resize: fixed problem with resampling method and slider not being updated after loading a settings file.

Selective Color Correction: fixed problems with clicking outside color wheel.

Curve controls: fixed problem causing probe to be displayed initially at the left edge of the curve.

Composite, Layout, Stack Images: switching images now preserves the location of the amount slider when switching images, unless a mask is present.

Initiating a File Open from outside Picture Window (for example by dropping files on the image area, double clicking image files in Explorer or dropping files on the Picture Window program icon) now checks to see if Picture Window is busy before opening the files. If so, the files placed in a queue and opened once Picture Window stops being busy. Picture Window is busy if a file open operation is currently in progress, a batch operation is in progress, a recalc is in progress, the transformation dialog box for the current image is open, or a modal dialog box is open. This should help prevent external File Opens from interfering with any ongoing operations.

There seems to be some problem with updating the preview window or browser.
When I move the vertical dividing line left or right the PWP freezes with a horizontal double-arrowed cursor for about 24 seconds before any work can be restarted.
In the previous version 29-Apr-2019 the same step needed only about 3-4 seconds.

It is re-zooming all the images to fit the new screen size after you adjust the separator, so the amount of time it takes depends on the number of images. The previous version was supposed to do this but because of a bug was not zooming all the images.

[davidh]

The slowdown due to re-zooming is so dramatical that it makes moving the separator unusable once the tree is wide enough to get under the preview window. This means the tree made of three or four side branches or even less if Layout transformation with a few panels is also used, or more top level images are open.
Then the horizontal scroll bar has to be used instead, which is rather awkward when you have a workspace described above.

The so called bug in previous versions was rather beneficial and perhaps might be considered as good candidate for an option in Preferences.

Your wish is my command. Added for next release.
