Regressions:

• Niko's work in r15171 (non-destructive filter update) needs to be re-integrated with the new filter metawidget, which replaces the

old blur slider

Considering, that now it can be handle blend modes as well as blurs, the need for non-destructive updates is smaller. As there is also a more generic UI in development, I don't know if re-integrating would be worth the effort. (well, filter-chemistry.cpp is a bit hairy and filled with unused code, so that might be a good enough reason)

I think we'll need to work out who wants to work on what with the metawidget at this point, depending on what you guys are each most comfortable spending time doing, and on your respective current states of progress.

As the UI is not what I'm supposed to be working on and Nick seems to be advancing on his project, I think I'll get back working on the hidden parts that make the filters tick.

For a short update, what I'm planning to do next: new filter primitives. feCompose, feMerge, feTurbulence and lighting effects are on my list. (not necessarily in that order or all of them)

I've just merged the first code drop from Nick into SVN; I was hoping to avoid any regressions, but at this point I think it's more important to start merging now since Niko and Nick are starting to touch the same code and I want to avoid too much divergence.

Things that work:

• blend modes can now easily be selected for objects, just like blur
• background accumulation buffer is enabled as-needed
• the filter UI dialog has very very basic filter editing capabilities

Things that do not work: http://pastebin.ca/587866 :)

This is revision 15182

Hi,

Is there any remaining work to be done for the filter UI?

Could you outline some steps for testers to follow?

• the blur slider in the filter metawidget needs to be made percentage like the slider it replaced

Todo:

• add filter metawidget to layers dialog too, for layers
• fix flakiness for "Filter" "blend mode"
• flesh out filters dialog, parameter editing/connections, etc.

I think we'll need to work out who wants to work on what with the metawidget at this point, depending on what you guys are each most comfortable spending time doing, and on your respective current states of progress.
