ROSEGARDEN 1.7.3 (to be) RELEASED
The Rosegarden team is proud to announce the release of version 1.7.3
of Rosegarden, an audio and MIDI sequencer and musical notation editor
for Linux.
http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/
This is a bug fix release.
New Features
Emanuel 9051: Rosegarden can respond to live program and bank changes transmitted from, eg. your MIDI keyboard
Rosegarden Handbook updates from Shelagh Manton
(should I release the notation editor icons, or save them for 2.0? I'm inclined to save them really, but that would be more work)
Significant Bug Fixes
Michael 9440: Fix multiple and single transposing recordings
When recording to multiple transposing tracks simultaneously (eg. an Eb cornet, a Bb trumpet and an F horn, as set up in Track Parameters) the performance is now adjusted correctly for all tracks, rather than just the first track
Fix a crash associated with the previous incorrect behavior
Chris 9442: Harden up TrackId handling to avoid assorted crashes related to deletion of track 1 (ID 0)
Make unset track IDs in MappedEvent etc default to something recognisably wrong, not just 0
Handle disappeared track ID in track parameter box.
Ensure track parameters box gets updated when a track is deleted
Fix a bug in Composition – track deleted notification should have happened when a track was detached as well, not just when it was deleted and destroyed
Yves 9447: Fix a bug in TextEventDialog
Michael 9489: LilyPond export tweaks
Disable the code to pad out short bars, because bars are often short by design
Tweak the OFFSET_Y to height on staff scaling for micropositioned rests exported as \rest in an attempt to offer exportable rest positioning that still leaves something to be desired
Chris 9490: Fix crash on tempo change
Simplify HSpinBox a bit, hopefully fixing #1960906
Make MIDIInstrumentParameterPanel::slotToggleChangeListOnProgChange an actual slot rather than just a function!
Heikki 9494: Improve fix 9489
Michael 9497: Add include to improve odds of building on Mandriva
Chris 9498: Fix potential overflow
Chris 9499: Unsuccessful saves of .rgd files show an error rather than fail silently
Heikki 9500: Improve Michael's broken approach to \rest export
Heikki 9509: Use explicit braces to avoid ambiguous 'else': if if else → if { if else }
