Overview of Changes from GIMP 3.2.2 to GIMP 3.2.4
=================================================

Core:

  - The "edit-fill-*" actions will now behave accordingly on specific
    cases. E.g. it will skip layers which can't be filled (content-lock
    layers and link layers) and it will fill the expected way
    non-rasterized text and vector layers.
  - Images opened through command lines are not considered stray images
    anymore on exit when run without a GUI (scripts, etc.).
  - We improved the support of the process temporary folder, so that we
    can avoid clashes when several users run GIMP on a same computer.
    Furthermore the temporary folder is now deleted at startup (unless
    it is not empty, which it should be).
  - XCF opened as layers will now always create new layers named as in
    the source XCF, even if the source XCF had only a single layer.
  - The "layers-resize" now only works on raster layers.
  - The "Layers to Image Size" and "Resize Layer to Selection" actions
    will only work on raster layers too.

Tool

  - Text tool:
    * When editing text, prioritize our global actions when a
      shortcut matches, before sending the hit keys to the IME (Input
      Method Engine). Otherwise some IME may consume our keys and block
      custom shortcuts (e.g. Alt+key events are often used to trigger
      special characters on macOS or Windows and may block core
      actions).
    * Prevent font size jumping to 0 when using shortcuts on selected
      text.
  - Selection tools: when moving a floating layer or selection,
    temporarily disable the marching ants outline. Among other reasons,
    it improves performance.
  - Select by Color tool: optimized processing when working in Intersect
    mode.
  - Crop tool: non-raster layers are not rasterized anymore.
  - Text tool: on-canvas GUI is now properly positioned when rotating
    the canvas.

Plug-Ins:

  - Improve import of: APNG, PAA, PNG, DDS, PSP, PNM, PSD, JIF, PVR
    texture, TIM, XWD, SFW, ORA.
  - Improved PDF export.
  - file-compressor: improved error messaging.
  - New Windows WIA scanner plug-in, replacing the now deprecated TWAIN
    scanner plug-in (which is not shipped in our Windows packages
    anymore as it depends on dropped 32-bit Windows platform).
  - Script-Fu: several deprecated functions now cleaned out from
    scripts.
  - Filmstrip: the created image will now have the dirty flag set.

API:

  - libgimp/PDB:
    * libgimp/PDB functions gimp_context_set_line_width_unit() and
      gimp_vector_layer_set_stroke_width_unit() now accept pixel as input unit.
    * Improved error handling in gimp_temp_file().
    * New function: gimp_resources_loaded()
  - libgimp:
    * A function gimp_env_exit() was added, but same as gimp_env_init(),
      it is not declared in public headers and should never be used by
      plug-ins. It is considered private.
    * gimp_quit() function is deprecated.
  - PDB:
    * (gimp-quit) procedure (without libgimp wrapper) is deprecated.

Translations:

  - New Lao translation.

Build:

  - Many build warnings are being cleaned out.
  - New jobs are being set up with -Werror progressively as we weed out
    existing build warnings.
  - The issue bot will now run and create reports when specific jobs
    fail.
  - New rules to generate Markdown versions of our man pages for the
    website.
