Imager release history. Older releases can be found in Changes.old
+ - drawing anti-aliased filled circles is now 10 to 50 times faster
+ depending on the size of the circle.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=101682
+
+ - enhancements to polygon filling:
+
+ - added a mode parameter to control how overlapping regions behave
+
+ - added a polypolygon() method to fill more than one polygon at a
+ time
+
+ - polygon filling is now exposed through the API.
+
+ - added colormodel(), alphachannel() and colorchannels() methods.
+ These were added for two reasons:
+
+ - a future version of Imager may allow the number of channels in
+ an image to not directly represent the color model of an image.
+ eg. a greyscale TIFF image with multiple alpha channels.
+
+ - a future version of Imager may allow an image to be read without
+ translation, for example a TIFF file that contains measurements
+ from an instrument. Currently Image transforms the samples into
+ the range 0.0 ... 1.0 which may means the user has to translates
+ the value back.
+
+ An untranslated image would be unusable as image data, so
+ colormodel() would return "unknown" in this case.
+
+ Similarly a CMYK image might be returned as an "unknown" color
+ model image, if the caller chooses to disable translation to
+ RGB.

+
+ - GIF: clean-up a test file if the test for the giflib 4.2.0 file
+ version bug fails.
+
+ - fix Imager::Matrix2d::rotate()'s centre point handling
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=99959
+
+ - ICO: don't apply the icon mask to images with an alpha channel by
+ default
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=99507
+
+ - make verbose probing output more verbose
+
+ - use Imager::Probe to probe for freetype 1.x
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=100502
+
+ - The --enable and --disable parameters to the top-level Makefile.PL

+

+
+Imager 1.000 - 28 Jul 2014
+============
+
+There's nothing special about Imager 1.000, it's just another release.
+
+ - fix the skip check for the iolayer qr// buffer test
+
+ - improve error reporting for the iolayer test failing on a small
+ number of Win32 CPAN testers
+
+Imager 0.99_02 - 21 Jul 2014
+==============
+
- Imager::Filter::Mandelbrot (and dynfilt/mandelbrot.c) - initialize
the blue channel in the generated palette, and allow each color
component to be in the range 100..255 instead of just 100..254.
This caused problems with older perls and didn't provide much of a
performance improvement.
+ - support Inline 0.57 and later.
+ Inline 0.57 changed the "with" interface.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=97108
+
+ - don't define our own MAXINT macro, it conflicts with windows header
+ files and in a few places it was the wrong value to use anyway.
