The v0.5.0 Release primarily targets adding support for CMYK and Grayscale while also improving the overal consistency of the python bindings. Additionally we added support for trivially replacing image data.

Three new examples were added. Please feel free to check them out!

Roadmap

v0.6.0

  • Adjustment Layers
  • Smart Objects

Performance

  • Read and Write speeds of 8-bit files are about 30-40% faster
  • Read and Write speeds of 16- and 32-bit files are about 10-15% faster
  • Image data extraction from ImageLayer<T> now runs fully parallelized
  • Python channel extraction speed was greatly improved

Features:

C++ / General

  • Add optional ProgressCallback that can be passed to read and write functions for LayeredFile<T>
  • Add support for Unicode layer names. Preferring these over PascalString layer names.
  • Add support for CMYK color mode
  • Add support for Grayscale color mode
  • Make files Krita compatible
  • Add support for locked layers
  • Add a PhotoshopFile::findBitdepth() function which reads out the header and allows for programmatic dispatching of LayeredFile<T> instances
  • Add a LayeredFile<T>::flatLayers() function for getting a flattened layer hierarchy which can be iterated without recursion.
  • Add functions for swapping image data: ImageLayer<T>::setImageData(), Layer<T>::setMask()

Python

  • Added more verbose error logging if the image data provided as numpy array does not match what is expected
  • LayeredFile: add flat_layers property giving you a temporary view over all the layers allowing for easy flat traversal. This is especially useful when applying some operation to all layers like resizing.
  • Layer: add is_visible property
  • Layer: add is_locked property
  • Layer: add has_mask() function
  • ImageLayer: add set_image_data, set_channel_by_id and set_channel_by_index functions as well as making the image_data property read-writable
  • ImageLayer: add num_channels and channels properties

Bugfixes:

C++ / General

  • findLayerAs() function no longer raises an error if layer cannot be found but instead returns nullptr to be more consistent with LayeredFile<T>::findLayer()
  • Fix memory leak due to missing call to blosc2_schunk_free()
  • Fix bug where files with only GroupLayers would not be openable in photoshop
  • Mask channels passed to ImageLayer<T> as image data now get automatically forwarded to m_LayerMask

Python

  • Fixed bug where non c-style contiguous arrays wouldn't be parsed correctly (e.g. when using numpy.reshape()). This conversion is now forced in-place
  • Fix missing self argument in psapi-stubs

Deprecations

  • Deprecate Layer<T>::getMaskData() in favour of Layer<T>::getMask()

Breaking changes:

The main breaking changes are to what is considered the internal API. A lot of the files in Util/ were moved over to Core/ where appropriate.

ImageLayer<T> constructor now takes an int16_t rather than uint16_t

Python

  • The Layer.layer_mask property has been removed in favour of Layer.mask. This property is now read-writable

CI / Compiling

  • Cranked up warnings under MSVC to /W4 and /WX with some additional warnings
  • Added ASAN and Valgrind steps to CI for continuous checking of correctness
  • Added memory-mapped files as backend for faster load times
