| This is a bug fix release. | This is primarily a bug fix/maintenance release. It addresses some critical track-related crashes that have been affecting users over the last couple of releases, and introduces assorted other minor fixes, such as improved multi-track recording for transposing instruments. It also includes the incomplete beginnings of several improvement projects that have all been postponed for now while we focus all our attention on the port to Qt4. |
| | |
| | We hope for this to be the final release of the KDE/Qt3-based Rosegarden. All work on this line of code has been suspended, and all of our effort is going into the new Qt4-based Rosegarden "Thorn" which we hope to release at some point in 2009. Unless we discover some truly critical problems with this release, any bugs and usability complaints will be deferred until after Thorn has entered the beta testing phase, and all new work will be done on the new code. |
| | |
| | Interested contributors should submit any patches against Thorn, as patches against 1.7.3 and earlier releases will no longer be accepted unless there are extenuating circumstances. Please inquire on the rosegarden-devel mailing list if you have any questions or concerns. |
| | |
| | We thank you, the Rosegarden community, for your patience during the long wait leading up to this current release, and for the even longer wait for Thorn. |

| | * Henrik 9519: Add velocity tool to matrix |
| | * Henrik 9521: Selected events in Notation/Matrix-View is represented in the property view, this update fulfills the feature requestid: 2018387 |
| | * Henrik 9523: Support for adding events with different durations. (In the matrix? Ruler? Not sure what this is.) |
| | * Henrik 9526: Fixed a drawing issue of control items where the items with an height got drawn behind ControlRuler lines |
| | * Henrik 9528: Change the whole implementation of how selection is reflected in the ControlRuler this implementation uses an ObserverPattern for observing event additions in an EventSelection. The controlruler is an observer and gets notified when a selection is added/changed etc. |
| | * Emanuel 9653: fix /dev/pts/0 problem (we also need to remember to port the sox changes if we haven't done so already; I skipped over all of that discussion about sox using different whatzits on different systems) |
| | * Chris 9677: Add support for SoX "rate" effect (apparently higher quality than rabbit or polyphase) |
| | * Chris 9741: Handle property attributes with capital letters in them (e.g. Int="0"). Working around an export bug for Turkish locale. |
| | * Michael 9756: Fix future compile bug with gcc-4.4 (already merged to Qt4 branch) |
